Elliottman Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 After I cancelled my ticket I sent the club an email asking if I could get details of the amount of cancellations. You reckon he's taking the p*ss? Hi , Thank you for your response to the email you have received from the Box Office at Newcastle United. Unfortunately, as is the case with most professional clubs, we do not announce season ticket numbers and there are no plans to change this policy I'm afraid. I'm fully aware of rumours circulating on social media regarding season ticket cancellations - and they are simply rumours - but I hope the fact that the club's magnificent fans have once again snapped up all tickets for another two away fixtures this week (Chelsea and Hull City) will reassure you about how incredibly well the team is continuing to be supported. If you are enquiring with regard to availability and would like to purchase a season ticket for the 2014/15 season, the club's Box Office staff would be happy to assist you in providing the information you require. I hope that doesn't sound presumptuous - I'd simply like to assist you as best I can. Thanks again for taking the time to email and for your continued support. Please accept my apologies that we are unable to provide the information you require. Kind regards, Lee Lee Marshall PR and Supporter Liaison Manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 And Venkman said his credit rating was alright afterwards, too. I cancelled in June. Fwiw the 'agreement' with the club didn't show up on my file in any way whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 It's not a credit agreement so it wouldn't be reportable to credit reference agencies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brazilianbob Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I don't understand this insistence on keeping ST's so you can get a cup final ticket. We have been to 4cup finals since 1974 and lost them all ( I was at Wembley for the first two). We were completely outplayed in all four finals, so i just don't understand why anyone would want to put themselves thru that torture Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Why spunk over £500 on a season ticket on the microscopic chance of a cup final anyway? If you're that desperate and we do do by some remote miracle manage to Sunderland our way to Wembley, then just turn up in London on the day with that same £500 and I guarantee someone will sell you one.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 There's always the next match or the next season though isn't there, that's how people think. That's the essence of what keeps people going back to football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brazilianbob Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 It's amazing how living and working away from Newcastle after spending the first 31 years of my life in the toon and a season ticket holder to boot, puts nufc into perspective. I don't miss going to the match at all now and certainly wouldn't buy a ticket, I would probably say no to a free ticket as well as things stand. In my youth I was there, rain hail or shine living and breathing nufc. Now I couldnt give a t*ss! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WashyGeordie Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Do i actually need a confirmation from the club? Just from the last message i sent to the Box Office they never replied but I've cancelled through the bank. Is that enough? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro111 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Do i actually need a confirmation from the club? Just from the last message i sent to the Box Office they never replied but I've cancelled through the bank. Is that enough? I emailed them on the 1st of Feb telling them that I wish to cancel for next season. I also immediately cancelled my DD with the bank. I received no confirmation from NUFC however and today I have received a letter asking me to authorise my Direct Debit again as they have tried to take a payment twice and have been unsuccessful. The thing that puzzles me is that the letter states that the payment is for the season 2013-14 ticket and has no mention of next season the 2014-15 ticket. I thought this season was already payed for ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
treemag Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I had same, the Feb DD is last instalment for 2013-14 ticket, if you want to see out this season you must pay one last time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Renewal letters have just dropped through the post... They've offered to freeze the 10 year deal for a further 3 year and the 9yr deal they've dropped the price by £24 a season... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
