MrBlack Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 7 hours ago, S-Platt said: Yes we used to have 12 split into 3 Family groups as kids got older went to Uni and so on and they put prices up we moved from the family area T1 in The North Stand to T2 row T, U and V close to T3 as was better view for same price. Would not let us change the names on the tickets for the Uni kid so lost one father/son. When we first started got season tickets as a group 6 years ago in The Championship it was £640 for 2 adults 2 kids in the family area it's now £1968 although no family discount. We hung on in The North Stand but now I think The Holte is better value adult tickets are £818 as opposed to £765 and that difference gives you a day of your life back from all the queuing and stupid road closers for European games. Plus it's easier to get refreshments at HT and closer to the car/pub we use. So proof that even a linked fan Id doesnt help you stay together. They've clearly put zero thought in to the displacement of people that weren't relocated for the purposes of hospitality, and only moved due to the realignment of aisles. Hopeless.

ejs1111 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 so let me get this right... AVFC are doing away with physical cards and going with mobile ticketing exclusively- which is how everything is now here in the US. However, all I see on VT is fans complaining about how shoddy the cell/wifi service is at Villa Park? How in the world are 42000 fans going to suddenly show up, pull out their phones and access tickets with mobile phones AT THE SAME TIME if the cell/wifi network was already poor? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need a signal to access a ticket in your wallet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I started putting it into my wallet as you stated and avoided the cell service crunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As difficult as it will be in the North Stand, trying to find a place for ten people together in the Holte end might be very difficult. Good luck!

Deano & Dalian's Umbrella Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I think they should have arse recognition where the seat ejects you if it detects an arse impostor. This would speed up entry to the ground as there would be no need for checks at the turnstiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seating zones have to have boundaries but that is pretty brutal If you stretch, and lean back.....is there seat police, to charge you more, on a proportional basis?

OutByEaster? Posted June 9 Author Moderator Share Posted June 9 https://tickets.avfc.co.uk/en-GB/events/dan test event/2024-7-31_0.00/villa park?hallmap Interesting test going on on the OS - you can set the amount you're looking to pay for tickets and it shows you the areas where tickets are available at that price. The range of £46 - £80 might tell us something about the rises for individual matchday prices. Edit - it doesn't - those are last season's prices - only the sliding scale functionality for availability is new I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the first time we'll know about individual matchday ticket pricing is 1 minute after the website starts selling tickets for the first game. Why let your customers know about pricing before they make a decision to buy. Heck might also move to dynamic pricing, so no more Cat A and Cat B matches, every match can go up or down depending on popularity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
