i would just like to tell a little story;
 
Before the adelaide game i bought my tickets from ticketek and asked the lady behind the counter 'how come you make everyone sit in half of the stadium?'
she said 'camera crews take up that half of the stadium'
so i replied 'what if a phoenix game sells out then what will happen?'
And she said 'THAT'LL NEVER HAPPEN AT A PHOENIX GAME!!!'
 
So to the negative ticketek lady who said these horrible words f**k YOU!!! Well done YF!
 
 
that is all...

Hey, be fair lads. If I worked for Ticketek, I'd be pretty negative as well.   Can't be easy knowing you work for one of the most inefficient companies in NZ. Add the missing teeth and the speech impediment, obviously Ticketek's dental plan for employees reflects their all round efficiency.

Wonderful reflection of her organisation and the commitment Ticketek have towards the Phoenix.

(Usually saying that phrase is a positive thing, but in our case...)

SAME OLD TICKETEK, ALWAYS SUCKING!

A Native American elder is talking to three young braves.

"Elder" asked the oldest. "How did I get my name?"

"Well, Running Bear" said the elder. "When you were born, your father named you the after the first thing he saw after leaving the teepee. He stepped outside and saw a bear running through the woods, and that is how he named you Running Bear.

"Elder" asked the middle child. "How did I get my name?"

"Well, Sleeping Moose" said the elder. "When you were born, your father named you after the first thing he saw after leaving the teepee. He stepped outside and saw a moose dozing underneath a tree, and that is how he named you Sleeping Moose.

"Elder" asked the youngest child. "How did I get my name?"

"Well, Ticketek" said the elder. "when you were born, your father named you after the first thing he saw after leaving the teepee. He went outside and stepped in a pile of horse sh*t..."

Contrast the OP's experience with the Ticketek guy in Lower Hutt. He can't be MORE positive about Phoenix. As he said to me "you guys come in here bring positivity with you!!"

AS for
Before the adelaide game i bought my tickets from ticketek and asked the lady behind the counter 'how come you make everyone sit in half of the stadium?'


That's nothing to do with Ticketek. Look where the sun is for most games. Try facing your cameras towards that. Then with everyone FACING the camera it gives the televisual illusion of the ground being much fuiller than it is...
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

The Guy in Lower Hutt is awesome. I gave up buying my tickets in Wellington after the pre season games. The first thing he does is turn the screen around so you can see which seats are free, always a pleasure to deal with.

A dog with a bone :)

The reason why we all sit in one half isn,t important, the moral of the story is the lady was a bitch

Where in Lower hutt are they? I have to grab a ticket for next Friday night as my nephew cant make it and he's my regular collector. I don't need the grief "Hardnews" experienced last night - I hear!!

I have been into the Ticketec Wellington office many times.
These people are the dumbest people on the planet.....I think they must be be all the children George Bush had with his sister!

Please Ticketec you are a provider of a service to the public...who pay for that service. How about training your staff on simple thinks like courtesey, helpfulness and knowledge of your systems.

Maybe we could blame her for ALL the ticketing problems over the season. She sounds like a natural.

Okay, while I personally feel (especially after tonights f-k up with sitters and families being put in the FZ without warning that us Feverites will be standing) that someone high up at Ticketek needs to resign, I must admit that the speech impediment bad teeth lady DID bend the rules for me once and let me get two tickets at student price for the League test despite only having one student ID, so credit to her on that, even if it took some encouragement from the bloke there who I always have time for, the one person at the MFC who has a positive attitude towards football and, gosh darn it, CUSTOMERS.

However, she's still screwed up and been catty enough for me to dub her the TickeTroll.

Having met the guy at the Lower Hutt Ticketec this arvo at 5pm, he could not be more helpful and friendly if he tried. I fully endorse any positive comment about this man and thoroughly recommend & encourage doing any bookings throught this particular outlet.
