Just to let everyone know what is happening in Mayo at the moment. First of all 3 weeks ago was it, the Kerry match in Castlebar, numerous season ticket holders were not marked as attended. Last week after the Cork match the same thing happened only this time people were aware of it. Croke park refused to correct THEIR mistake at the Kerry match and said it was gone past the 10 day widow to let them know as per their T&C's ( which by the way they snook in without telling existing season ticket holders about the change, that's another matter)

Numerous people were again not credited for attending the Cork match because of their mistakes again. When people contacted Croke Park numerous times, (within the 10 day window, which finish's tomorrow Wednesday 26th March at 2.30pm) some people's attendance were manually updated. They are now telling everyone else that they will not update anyone else because of their mistake.

What happened at the stiles?
Season ticket holders presented their tickets as usual, scanned, scanner beeped and they went through. 1 case, family of 5, 2 adults 3 Juveniles. 2 adults and 2 juveniles were recorded, 1 juvenile was not, same scanner so I would assume that the card was not scanned properly.

2nd case, Lady went in ( at 12.30 for hurling match) so no pressure on stewards, card scanned Beeps turns Green & Go. Her attendance is not updated and they refuse to do so, where are her attendance records gone?

T&C's this year say that it is up to the card holder to ensure that it is scanned correctly, beeps, turns Green & Go. If it Beeps, turns Red & Stop you are not to be admitted and they have to check a printed list of season ticket holders that they have at every match and mark you name off.

2 questions, why were people allowed through if the scanner said stop? ( not checked) What happened the records of people that were scanned Beep turn Green & Go?

Also read the e-mail they sent out for the bring a friend yesterday;

PLEASE NOTE THAT ATTENDANCES WILL NOT BE MANUALLY UPDATED FOR ANY PREVIOUS OR FUTURE FIXTURE AS THERE ARE PROCEDURES IN PLACE AT EACH VENUE TO ENSURE THAT ATTENDANCE IS RECORDED ON MATCH DAY.

What happens if this happened at every match you went to? What are you to do? As they say its up to us to ensure our attendance is recorded correctly. Make sure the scanner turns Green & Go, take a photo of it, ask for your name to be marked off of the printed sheet that they have?

Interesting, that's basically the reply I got re the Dublin game they say we didn't attend. Not the usual helpful season ticket office, but an ignorant jobsworth reply.

It's a bit rich saying that they don't have issues at the grounds, I've had the ticket since day 1 and every single year without fail at least one game doesn't get marked as attended. Up until now you just forwarded on the details and they sorted it. In my experience no-one at the grounds gives a flying feck if your attendance is recorded and how you are meant to know a beeping scanner isn't actually recording your attendance is beyond me.

The ten day rule is also new, they never mentioned that one.

Looks like they have decided to start taking advantage of the poor Eejits who have made the scheme a success for them...

Sad that they have taken this stance, have ALWAYS found them so helpful and friendly but am shocked now by their coldness in this regard. Have the GAA realized that the ticket is now "too good" for us and don't want any more sign ups? Loads of lads I know took it up this year.

Any sign of the tickets ready to print for the weekend? No sign of them yet though they were due to be ready today.

Folks this is being taken further, they have always being very helpful in the past when they made a mistake. This is just not good enough.

Remember if you use the "Bring a friend" option you WILL be shoved down to 301, or because its Dublin we are playing and the huge crowd expected, you could be shoved to the upper 701.

I think this will be my last season on this scheme.

This season I went to 3 of Kilkenny's 5 games.

I won't make the quarters, so let's say I make the semi's and Kilkenny ( for argument sake) are not in the final.

That would be 4x10 = €40 plus whatever the cost of the first championship game is, probably around €20. Giving a cost of €60.

There may then be a €5 reduction on the price of a Leinster semi final ticket but not a Leinster final.

So all in all I'm not seeing the season ticket as making financial sense for me at the moment. Add to that if they are shifting ST holders to the worst seats for the final (which in fairness remains to be seen) then I don't see much point in renewing next season.

I'll probably take my chances without the season ticket from next season.

I was put into 302 after opting for the "Bring a friend"

I just cannot see the reasoning behind reducing the quality of season ticket seats for the final. Just because demand is higher? So what? Ignoring the fact that demands can't actually change the number of tickets they have to sell, why should the most loyal fans be the ones to lose out?

Of course we know the answer. They want those tickets for the sponsors, pure and simple. I said it earlier this year, they're gradually eroding the benefits if the ticket, knowing full well they don't actually need to work to get our custom. It's pure greed, and we really should be standing up and making noise about it.

Will have to wade through the links above.

I hope what they mean is that for the All Ireland final if there are more ST holders than seats in section 305 they would use other sections as well as 305.

As I said it remains to be seen but if all the season ticket holders are suddenly in in corners or whatever that would be a pretty bad move.

I guess we will just have to wait and see though.

NOPE, afraid not. 2014 T&C's (which by the way has been greatly changed from 2013 and existing ST holders were not notified, that's another story)

53. Due to the significantly increased demand for the All Ireland Finals, the seats allocated to qualifying Season Ticket holders for the finals will not be located in the same section as seats allocated for prior championship games at Croke Park.

Just printed the tickets there. Bring a friend is 302. We are 306

We missed the bring a friend, he'll have to get a seat on his own.
He'll probably bring a portable radio.

There will probably be a few tickets going spare for the match this weekend, at least they will be scanned correctly in Croke Park!

What is going on with the Season Ticket seating this season? I have never been alloacted a seat outside 304 to 306 before... however this week I'm in 309 :mad: this is really poor seating considering I haven't missed a match this season home or away, what a great way to look after loyal supporters.

Has anyone else been seated so poorly?

glack

I think it depends on the county you are playing. There are a lot of Mayo supporters with season tickets and even more Dublin supporters. Each county will get an equal allocation of the good seats I'd imagine in sections 305/306 and it works outwards to the hill 16 and davin stand ends from there.

Yeah, except that people who have been season ticket holders for longer should get preference for the very decent seats.

Was not aware of this. Maybe getting tickets in 306 for 2011 & 2013 was just too good. I'd gladly take a seat in 331 as a compromise...

Hopefully we have this 'problem' to worry about!

I went to Westmeath vs Dublin in Mullingar a few weeks back, the person operating the stile scanned 2 cards that the one person in front of me presented.

When I present my ticket at Croke Park, I havn't given it any thought up to now, the person scans my ticket, the scanner beeps and I am let through the stile. Now I seemingly will have to ask has my ticket scanned ok and look for the green light to avoid being shafted. At least we are forewarned about issues. I don't know anything about the scanning procedure, but it should be easy to scan tickets, and save the data on a database.

If your ticket doen't scan correctly in Croke Park the scanner beeps twice & flashes red, usually when this has happened to me the turnstile attendant manually enters the barcode, the scanner beeps and flashes green & I'm good to go.

Always make sure to tell the attendant it's a Season tickets & this ensures that they make sure your attendance is recorded.

I'm sure Mayo Club 51 will post details as they get them, fair play to them for persevering with it though!
I checked the T&C's myself, and sure enough number 53 is there about the final ticket allocation. Not sure it that will bother us this year though! :pac:
They also have a note where they do not have to notify us of changes to the T&C's, (No. 70) which is fair enough (I should have read them through in the first place before I ticked the box accepting)

T&C #70 did not exist until this year. They changed the T&C's without notice, to make an addition informing us they could make changes without notice.

What I mean is, they changed the T&C's from last year, those are the T&C's that every season ticket holder agreed to when buying the ticket this year. I didn't realise that myself until I actually read them! I'd have thought they would have to notify us, but not so.

adrian522

I love how they give them selves a few days grace to update attendance (and this is always their first line where attendance is not recorded) Then say you must contact them within 10 days.

In reality the window of when they update their system (which we don't know) and the end of the 10 day window is very small.

Also in this weeks email they say "Please ensure that your card is scanned in order for your attendance to be recorded. (Attendance will not be amended at a later date)" which makes a mockery of the whole process.

Last season I was heading in to Semple Stadium for KK v Waterford, and it was obvious the ticket didn't scan correctly but the official just waved me on, wouldn't scan it a second time. Last year it was grand to get it corrected but this year I would be unable to do so.

Also asking supporters to check the scanner is a nonsense as most of the time the scanner is with the person behind the style. They are going to have to come up with a better solution or vastly improve their scanning system.

The whole system is a mess this year. And not great value either.

How hard would it have been to make a note on the site at renewals time that the T&Cs had changed? Legally they did nothing wrong, grand. That doesn't change the fact that it's fairly sharp practice all the same.

This, among a few other issues like the decreasing value of the Season Ticket both monetarily and in the reward stakes (e.g. good seats) and the diminishing customer service that others have experienced are things I'd like to raise with the GAA Season Ticket office but fear it'd fall on deaf ears since I'm just one voice.

By the same token Adrian, the county boards could be loosing out big time. Anyone with an orinary ticket, (and it could be from the previous week) would be scanned too and let in!! That's one of the problems, the people are not checking the scanner as they are scanning, It beeps and flash's "Green & Go" but it also beeps, flash's "Red & Stop"!!

I only became aware of any rule changes and problems/issues from this thread. I think T&C 53 is pretty mean regarding seats that WILL NOT be located in the same section as previous games. It is very poor treatment for the season ticket holder. After sitting in the Lower Cusack in the leagues and up to AI semi-final potentially, I could be anywhere at all for the final. So, I give the GAA €75 in advance for league and 1st championship game, continue to pay etc and for the final I could be stuck in corner of Upper Davin and some guy is sitting over in 305/306 for the final who hasn't attended all year and managed to buy a touted ticket/win a draw/get from a sponsor etc. You couldn't make this up. It was a simple scheme, pay upfront, get 60% attendance and perhaps qualify for a decent ticket. It is some way to record customer loyalty! They have a problem that there are too many season seats for the finals!! They sold the tickets, surely they were able to control the numbers sold.

That's the thing, the only 2 counties to sell out the season ticket are Dublin and Mayo (although Dublin I think still had some Hill 16 tickets left?) They have potentially lost control over 7/8 thousand tickets for the final If Dublin & Mayo were to make the final?

The solution was to sell less tickets. They had control over the number of season tickets to sell and they saw the explosion in popularity after 2011 and 2012. They sold no stand tickets for Dublin this year because of the high renewals. The Season Ticket allocation for the 2013 AI Final was 3,322 according to the Congress report. The thoughts that I, as a season ticket holder for 4 years now with easily 90%+ attendance over those four years combined, will end up in the nosebleeds while some sunshine supporter who knows a guy that knows a guy sits where I've sat those previous matches for every game is an absolute joke and in no way rewards me for the time, effort and money I've put into supporting my team and the GAA for several years.

Ooh I Know, and agree with you. The season ticket has been seriously devalued over the last year or two, more so this year because of the reduction of pre bought tickets the week of a match, down to €10. The season ticket should have been reduced accordinly to maybe €60? for us renewals. But, that's another story for another debate!

Similar happened to us, we were rushed through at dublin v Westmeath and told scanner was grand, but it hadn't sounded correct.

Then the ticket office says it's our own fault and there were no reports of problems. (Ignoring the fact that you are reporting a problem)

It's like the ticket office people have never actually been to a ground outside of Croke park. They know well the systems at the grounds can often be farcical and saying the season ticket holder is now responsible for resolving things that they couldn't in 100 years seems unfair (to say the least).

Every single year at least one attendance doesn't get recorded correctly, so it's no new. Saying this year that they will just ignore that isn't on.

There is no doubt in my opinion that Dublin and Mayo doing well in last few years has meant they aren't as happy with the scheme in Croke Park as it has been of benefit to the largest number of season ticket holders.

I can only imagine the reaction I'd get if I ask the attendant to hand over the scanner "to ensure" that my card is scanned correctly...

If they are going to act the ar$e in HQ, they are going to have to start issuing receipts. I've had issues previously - but every time I phoned the ticket office they were extremely helpful. And typically admitted that they were aware of the problem when I phoned.

I always check to make sure, it flashed red & he tried it a few times then said go ahead without scanning it, I had to tell him it to enter it manually as it was a season ticket.

VONSHIRACH

My wife had spilled some coffee on my tickets on the table at home, so I was expecting them not to scan properly. I would have reprinted them but I was bang out of printer paper! They scanned ok, but I checked online later to confirm. TBH, I thought my wife's beeped twice, but it was probably the other scanner beeping simultaneously in the stile. I couldn't see any light green or red flashing when I entered. I asked the attendant and he said yes scanned ok.

So are the seats we were assigned in Croke Park last weekend the same seats we will get for all other matches up to All Ireland Final?

QuiteInterestin

For anyone at McHale Park today for the Mayo Derry game, the attendance is already up (mine is anyways!), It usually took a day or two for the other games. I'm guessing after all the problems with the last 2 games they've improved things.
