Season Ticket window is finally closed

[Deepcar_lights]

Refused finance by v12 despite using them over the last 2 seasons. Literally no change to my income, its increased if anything. Reyt laugh! Buying outright just isnt an option at the minute either.

Are you sure they've refused? When I tried buying 2 season tickets on Sunday through finance they first said.. Thank you for your completed credit application. In the event we need further information we will contact you, otherwise our decision regarding your application will be sent by email as soon as possible.

 

Received another email 24 hours later saying I had been accepted with link to complete application with an electronic signature.

 

I would give them a call.

It would be good to extend it. But I think if you take the credit option your first payments not for another month?

Oi you owl. Have you considered interest free credit card? Sounds like a few have taken that option and it negates the 6.5 pc fee. Wish I had thought of it tbh

Mods can you please change the title of this thread - it's misleading as there are not as many days left since it was first posted.... Some people may miss out FFS!

You were saying?

It's true though init?

I'm a st holder of 26 years and would have taken advantage of a 3 year st if had a bit longer. Reckon they've defo missed a trick, so just a 1 year for me.

Why is this window so short???

 

Season ticket ain't a viable option for me due to work, but I still think it is far too short. 

[latemodelchild]

I'll be renewing mine and the little uns. Only 1 year, can't stretch to more or I would. Be reight.

[richowl]

the timing of the deadline is very surprising.

[Groundhopping Owl]

You do realise you don't have to pay it all January don't you?

I do, unfortunately with my situation it's that I don't know where I'm going to be next season, the problem is I'll be much clearer in a month or so which is when we normally have the tickets on sale.

It was posted today. How many days do think it has changed by in that time?   

[BIG D]

It's been on here many times now but have look at the Virgin Credit Card.

You transfer cash into your account and have 32 months interest free to pay it off.

I borrowed £1500 for my 3 year ticket in the North and the fee is only just over £25 + they chucked in a £10 Amazon voucher!

Just about enough time still to sort it.

[Bloxwich Owl]

Just purchased two three-year season tickets for the North Stand.

Had spent two days trying to get through on the phone, so yesterday I resorted to dropping them an e-mail and they rang me back this morning - all done!

Probably because you're Rich and I'm not.

I don't if this has been posted before but I hope this might be a helpful way to buy a 3 year ticket, and spread the cost over 32 months.

 

Virgin currently have an offer on for money transfer for all new credit card customers. So, if you successfully apply for one of their money transfer credit cards, you can essentially re-pay yourself the money you just spent on your ST, and then stagger the payment back over a time period that suits. I am choosing 32 months as it offers the best rates etc. This does mean that you will need to have the hard cash in your bank to make the purchase of your ST, but if successful in applying for the card, you can transfer the money back to your bank, from your card.

 

You will need to act quickly though as I am not sure how long this will take to be approved. The link is

When asked for the type of card, select "Transfer money to my current account" from the drop down list and press Go. Hope this is helpful.

[ChapSmurf]

I have just applied for one of these cards myself and approval was instant for me, which means I can confidently make my purchase. Hope those applying get approved too.

Just been down & renewed my 2 for the North on the 3 year deal.

For anybody wondering how it works for the Under 25 price band my lad is 24 in July so it was just a case of paying for 1 year at Under 25 & 2 years at Adult.

Not many in the queue, I was in there less than five minutes.

[shandypants]

I have renewed on the three year deal. I have never been so excited to shell out £1205.

My parents, now both in their late 70s got their STs this week, 2 year versions.  Thats approx 35 years in a row for them!!  They nearly didn't get them, it gets harder for them to get to games particualrly on the cold days but I persuaded them that at 9 quid a game they could easily afford to miss a few games and still be seriously cheaper than POTD tickets.

Got my 3 year one on kop yesterday for me and my son(his first at 8 yrs old) and my first since late 90's. V v excited!
