Topic: Members Sales

[DIOJIM]

Tickets bagged for the preseason, luckiest sale I've ever been a part of tbf. My missus tried on her phone, 9000th in the queue. I tried on mine and straight through and purchased. Seems to be plenty available still.

Probably used all my luck up before the 'proper' members sale/ballot tbf...

[Tiz Lad]

Anybody had a mail about pre-register for members sales

[choi]

Just registered me and my mate for the 10 league home matches (13+). Not seen any announcement about it, but noticed it on the site so tried it and it seemed to work - can see it in my history. Not sure what the point is if 13+ people are guaranteed?

[royabs]

This is on the site now, don't remember getting any notice about it...? FYI, it allows 13+ to register interest for any home league games taking place before January. You can assign interest to F&F as well.

Only just seen this on there myself.

Poor from the club that we’ve not had any email or annoucement

Weird, just sent the image to my mate who is on over 13.

[Welshred]

Yeah this is the first I was aware of it too. They should have put an announcement out about this!!

Liverpool FC would like to update supporters on the Official Member ticket sales process for the 2021-22 season.

The club is introducing new registration periods that Official Members must sign up to if they would like to purchase tickets during the Members ticket sales for Premier League home games.

This new approach will provide an enhanced and fairer ticket-buying process than the previous bulk Member ticket sales.

There will be two registration periods taking place within the same season: one in July, for games to be played during the first half of the season; and the second in November, for games to be played from January 1, 2022.

Registrations are open from 11am on Friday July 23 until 8am on Friday July 30.

Following the registration periods, the dedicated Members ticket sales will then take place from the week commencing Monday August 2, with full selling details to be announced next week.

Up to a maximum of four eligible Member Supporter IDs can be registered within the one booking. Adult and junior combined accounts must register as a pair, or on a 2:1 ratio basis.

Supporters must have purchased an Official Membership for 2021-22 before registering.

As previously communicated, games purchased this season will not accrue credits to be used in future seasons. Supporters are encouraged to only purchase tickets for games they plan to attend themselves.

More information and our FAQs are available here.

Disabled supporters – full details are available here.

They put the notice out AFTER the started the registration period. Absolute amateur.

[Hij]

May have a better chance of City/Arsenal/Chelsea than any of the others.

Got 11 games.

[swoopy]

Makes no difference when you've got a week. But absolutely no notice is pretty pathetic. As is starting the registration process at the same time the friendlies have gone on sale!

[Hij]

Don't be negative fellas

[RainbowFlick]

Their notices seem to get more confusing by the week too, no wonder people queue up at the wrong times.

[sonofkenny]

the story should have gone earlier but it doesn't really matter!

[Kenny's Jacket]

piss poor from the club

If I wasnt on RAWK  I wouldnt have know about this

[Hij]

So previously on the first come first served, we'd just try to get in and then box the people who want the tickets.

Whereas with this ballot, it's in our interests to just get absolutely everyone in the group with a membership to apply for the ballots and then transfer tickets to people who can attend?

[jonnypb]

The ticket sale process was straight forward this morning for the friendlies!!  One thing I noticed which is good, if you close your browser windows and then go back to the ticketing site you don't end up back in the queue, it takes you straight back to the ticketing sale page.

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Why have we got to register our interest if we are guaranteed a ticket?

[ScubaSteve]

Bit of a mini nightmare then…I put my card details in to pay for the tickets it asked me to authorise the payment via my banking app and then i clicked approve on the lfc website and it spat me out straight to the queue again??
Does that mean it worked ?

[Hij]

Why have we got to register our interest if we are guaranteed a ticket?

I think so they can calculate the exact amount of available tickets remaining for the ballots for those who aren't guaranteed (some 13+ might take the season off?)

[RainbowFlick]

Why have we got to register our interest if we are guaranteed a ticket?

*maybe* it's so they can get a rough idea of how many might be skipping this season to figure out numbers elsewhere?

seems nonsensical otherwise

[PJJ]

How do I buy an junior ticket? I have 5 tickets in my basket for the friendly. 4 adults and 1 junior. It won’t let me check out. Says I must have at least 1 adult but I have 4?

[Welshred]

It may also be so they can determine whether 13+ will actually be guaranteed as well due to capacity issues...

[ChrisLFCKOP]

I think so they can calculate the exact amount of available tickets remaining for the ballots for those who aren't guaranteed (some 13+ might take the season off?)

But you can only do that off the number of tickets sold not a registered interest as people may not buy.

[Tiz Lad]

Why not have the option to register for all games (in one go) as well as individual games.

Hoping there's more than 20 minutes on bulk sale day for your ticket. Imagine if there's 4 of you to buy for 40 tickets in 20 minutes

[ChrisLFCKOP]

It may also be so they can determine whether 13+ will actually be guaranteed as well due to capacity issues...

Now that makes sense but worry if its the case as that means a significant reduction in capacity to cause an issue.

[PHIL.]

Done.

I think this is a great idea. Surely, by doing this in advance, the club will have the ability to only grant access to the sales page to those who have successfully registered?

I may be wrong about that but that's what I'm hoping.

[RainbowFlick]

Wish they had a button to auto-allocate to your eligible F&F. The page reloads every time you make a change now. Sigh.

[RainbowFlick]

Done.

I may be wrong about that but that's what I'm hoping.

They already have that ability - you can only view todays' pages if you're eligible.

It doesn't stop people randomly queueing unless they're going to change something before then.

[DIOJIM]

Just done mine, bit of a fiddle to add them all within 20 minutes while I had to check my calendar, work schedule and match fixtures at the same time 

[PHIL.]

That's what I'm hoping they'll do, but it seems too obvious, so probably not.

[Hij]

Ah fair point, but any unsold can be offered to anyone on a waiting list right?

[Barrowred]

Am I right in reading the way the club announcement comes across that the successful ballot members will be in the guaranteed sale as well as the 13+?

[Kenny's Jacket]

Trying to register and im getting error messages- this is really shit

[ScubaSteve]

Trying to register and im getting error messages- this is really shit

Go through the link via the fixtures and then it’ll ask you to log in mate

I had the same problem but deleted my comment when I did it this way

[swoopy]

Worked fine for me. Pick game, enter qty, assign as appropriate.
What error are you getting ?

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Ah fair point, but any unsold can be offered to anyone on a waiting list right?

Such a silly way to sell the tickets IMO, seen it on the ballots over the last 18months where people are succesful but don't buy then goes down the waiting list which not everyone then buys and then it goes even further down the waiting list, just strings the process out.

First come, first served its all done and dusted in a day, this way it can be a week before its sorted.  Don't know why they have made more work for themselves.

Ballot, winners buy any left go in the late availability sales. dead easy and done in a week.   this way is easier.

You must allocate the Wheelchair User Registration to the wheelchair user, and the PA Registration to the PA.

 I have registered them correctly to each - PA  means the carer who goes with me

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Has that been communicated if the ballot sale doesn't sell out they go to the late availability sales?
