They need to do it so your basket empties after 30 mins, if not bought.....and no way back in.

Still on the site and not marked as sold out in ticket availability. Are these people trying to hoard them until the 1+ sale? Or has it truly sold out?

A friend managed to get in to get a single.

We need to make some noise to club about this hoarding of tickets by the Tik Tok generation.

Be some long standing reds miss out soon and that’ll be the nail in the coffin for me

Spot on, these people have managed to artificially manufacture a sale today that probably shouldn't have happened and the same is happening tomorrow.

The club are happy to let it happen thanks to their ridiculous ticket system that allows this, its sheer incompetence

Just another example of them not caring who gets the tickets

I agree - that's all correct. Best of it is, a simple adjustment on the sales page would solve much of it.

Exactly. I mean how hard can it be to check who has tickets in their baskets for hours on end and boot them out.

Also The system should really have the ability to look as the F&F list and of the account that's logged in and not allow any tickets to be basketed if a) you have already bought and b) nobody in your list qualifies under the current criteria.

I mean it probably can not LFC probably haven't even asked if it can

actually tried to explain the issue to LFCHelp but either i'm not making any sense or they don't fully understand how the access works.

only one or two similar messages seem to have been sent to them (publicly), i wonder if it's just a handful affected and they're just not bothered enough to raise it

Maybe a mad theory this, but is there no way the club could be holding onto some of these? To try and bring on another ‘all members’ sale to drive the numbers down in terms of those with multiple credits?

It does seem very very odd all this, has this ever happened before when sales are coming and going without it selling out when it most likely should?

the club wouldn't do that, if they wanted to drive the numbers down they'd just give more to sponsors/players/hospo. not giving people on each prior tier a fair chance is not right (and i'm only on 1 credit) and if it was uncovered there's foul play it'd cause a commotion.

i have heard of someone holding tickets last season too but i don't think we've had this specific scenario play out like this.

i just reckon the LFCHelp people don't understand the intricacies of the system and how it can be abused and there doesn't seem to be too many people raising it weirdly.

Yeah fair point mate, just thinking out loud really. It’s a loophole that needs closing if it’s not foul play from the club. Because either way it’s not right that it’s stopping people on multiple credits from being able to buy tickets, however it’s happening.

And I say that in the same situation as you, am on one credit.

No idea mate - But that's what people are doing - The fact that the system allows it is farcical - But nobody at the club actually cares - They read this forum and yet nothing gets done to solve this basic problem along with the myriad of other basic problems

The fact that people are asking for hallmaps for today is for a sale that should not even come close to happening is nothing short of a joke

Yesterday's sale should not have happened either, but the simplest of simple fixes have not been implemented by the club - You should get one extension when checking out coz of the form filling and that should be it

The sale has shown has sold out on the site since 5 minutes after the 3 credit sale thanks to the total incompetence on show from the club, and people on 3 have missed out because of this

They publish the sale that says max of 10 or max of 4 per transaction yet you can add 100 to the basket and leave them there

Sooner or later people who are in a supposed guarantee sale are going to miss out coz of this practice of hiving tickets to a basket to save for the next credit down sale

LFC help don't understand or are maybe not bothered I don't know. But it needs more people to raise it

Spot on. I've raised similar issues plenty of times with the club. I know others have as well so they are fully aware of the issues.

The club don’t care, it’s genuinely mind blowing to me how obvious it is that they simply don’t give a fuck.

The club should be cancelling the 1+ credit sale now.

I am not affected by this as I was in guaranteed sale. But it is really pissing me off what is happening. Friends who have 3+ had to pay 4 times postage because they could only get singles. I know friends of friends who have not been able to buy on 2.

They should also be banning anyone doing this.

Agree Craig, it’s madness that as it stands it looks like (in theory at least) the 1 credit sale goes ahead.

They should be ‘resetting’ the site for want of a better word and letting the tickets be available for those with required credits to get them. And I say this as someone who would potentially benefit from the 1 credit sale happening.

Without them doing something with the site, is the same thing going to happen anyway? In theory surely someone could be logged in on the account of someone who qualifies, with no one additional who does qualify to allocate a ticket to! If someone has worked out how to sit on tickets this long, surely they could continue to do so until an all members sale happened (without some sort of reset happening)?

I'm in same boat mate - it's annoying I know people who haven't been able to get tickets on 3 credits, coz they weren't quick enough, I mean 987 tickets in 4 minutes. Yet the club merrily carry on letting people do it, and blindly doing 2 and 1 credit sales

I've raise it on live chat - (maybe more could try to create some momentum) - but needless to say got the default we'll pass it on
