I was going to suggest that someone send a mail direct to the
Phoenix but just tried to get to the Phoenix website to get the
email address and get a "Server Too Busy" error. Probably loads of
people trying to complain already.

I just had a call from Ticketek and apparently my tickets were sent
out in the first batch on Friday.
They better be here tomorrow.

Thanks Guys I have read with interest all the above.
If season passes were ordered this week then unfortunately you
will not get them in time for this weeks game . A hard ticket will
be given and you will have a seat allocated. For those who will be
given hard tickets, Ticketek will call you to see if you are happy
with the seat they have allocated. If you are not happy you can
select a different seat.
Also another batch of season passes has been sent today.
Keep me informed of what nis happening and I wilol try an
answer your questions.

out the normal ones before Friday???

VERY CONCERNED!! I ordered mine weeks ago how can they have made such a mess of this??
Permalink

okay, so for those without season tickets (but have paid for them),
do we roll up to the Stadium ticket office pre-match on Sunday (on
the way to the Back Bencher) and get issued with a ticket / pass to
get admission to the match?
If this is to happen, could some kind person brief the ticket sellers so they know they can issue substitute tickets to season ticket receipt holders?
Might save some animated discussion on the day ....
Or does anyone know who I should contact to make this happen?

The word from Ticketek is that you roll up to the pre-order desk on
the concourse on the way to the stadium and show ID, which they
presumably match to their list of those who've paid, and then you
can pick up temporary tickets for the day.

Has anyone had trouble receiving their allocated tickets for this season .Is this ticketek problem ???
Feedback appreciated

I paid for my season tickets in mid July and have received nothing
- first they tell me they are sending out forms for me to fill in -
the they tell me they are sending out the tickets - but nothing.
What a mess!! Ticketek clearly do not know what is going on - when
will they be issuing refunds!

I emailed them today and they replied a couple of hours later
saying I should have mine Friday...

Surely Tony P, has to make this problem his number 1 priority
(I happen to have mine, so it's not self interest talking).
I just think it's a bit of a looming PR problem - we (i.e. the
club) can't afford to make it difficult for people to get
into football matches in NZ -some of them might not come
back.
It might help if we knew for sure that Ticketek and the club
were saying the same thing.
All the best with this Tony.

for - feeling rather grateful after reading of other's problems

I was the first person to call up - and I still dont have
mine..
I call the first morning and no one knew they had the tickets
for sale.
Rang back at 1.30 same day still no idea
15 July turn up at office 45 min to get sorted
And they still do not know how to sort it all out.
Rang today 2.45 Tickets being posted tomorrow standard post,
after listening to message advising "if you are waiting for
tickets- courier, allow 2-3 days- Post allow 3 - 5 days.
Call from home 4.30, wrist bands for one game arrived with
letter advising to turn up with wrist band or ticket togain
entry.
Heres hoping something goes right Sunday.

Mine still haven't arrived.. they could at least let us know now what to do come sunday if our tickets do not arrive
Permalink

Sorry forgot the best part if tickets do not arrive by Friday our
call centre is open till 8 pm so just call.
What do they all think we have been doing over the last month.
Because there standard line is we will call you back, which never
happens. YOU HAVE TO CALL THEM.
Roll on phones with molecular transfer options, then we can
send more than words through the phone.

I would recommend that ticket master do the passes next year

I second that motion wholeheartedly.

Sounds like a nightmare lads! I'm reading these posts with a sense
of disbelief- How can they be so completely incompetent?

IM so frustrated.. we pay our money weeks ago and they leave it
until a few days before the first game

i've been intouch with ticketek and phoenix and have been assured
that the last of the membership tickets were sent out today... so
you should get them tomorrow or friday!
Frutrating (especially as i'm waiting on season tickets for 16
of us!) but once they turn up i'll be looking forward to the game
and forgetting that it was ever a problem.

anyone watching England v Germany at the backbencher in the
morning? 7am kickoff.

I live in a street where the postie only delivers every 2nd
Saturday so he does not have to walk 1 street twice. Lets hope it
our turn this saturday. Because the mail usually takes 3 days from
the date of NZ post franking in Wellington eastern suburbs.

I had a message left on my phone (still not got my passes).
Apparently - if I understood message - there will be a separate
booth on Sunday for those who have not rec'd season or normal
tickets by then....But don't quote me on that!
The message also advised that mine were with the first batch that were printed and dispatched....

Yeah they told me that too. Sounds a likely story.

I assume they told everyone that then hurriedly arranged the season passes and sent them out today.
Although I won't be surprised if nothing turns up after this carry on.

They have the service fee - so don't worry they get to keep it even if we all cancelled our passes.
Just checked Oz A League site looks like ticketek have the
monopoly on sales, Perth is the only one useing Ticketmaster.

You have to wonder how Ticketek manage with ticketing for a major
event - 7s, Lions Tour, Rugby World Cup - I bet they have no
ticketing issues with Rugby.
I received an eMail response from Ticketek today - the 9
season passes that I paid for on 18 July 'should' be with me on
Friday - I wonder which Friday they have in mind!!

I would like to thank the kind forum person who pointed me in
the right direction to obtain my season tickets in a timely
manner.Left a message this morning and they responed very
quickly.
Thank you again below is the number that was posted a while
back hope this helps for anyone else
Contact
phone number for Vienna is 04 3842347
She is actually the stadium membership co-ordinator but seems to have ended up with the job of dealing with the memberships 'cos no one else at Ticketek seems to be doing it. She is very nice and very helpful so if you do call her please be nice to her - it's not her fault things are chaos.

Ticketek is the biggest shambles since me when I first started high
school and had to tuck in my shirt, wear a blazer and a tie (and
believe me, that was really bad).

You're welcome. Glad some of the stuff posted on the forum is
useful 
I know that the season ticket thing is a complete mess but rather than complain to each other (we already know its bad!) how about complaining to the Phoenix email address and just keeping the forum for useful stuff?
By the way, Ticketek have contracts with certain venues so any events held at those venues have to use Ticketek. So its not like the Phoenix got much choice ...this time around anyway.
Here's hoping for a convincing win on Sunday!

haven't received my season ticket, but today received (in the post)
an ordinary ticket for Sunday's game - with a note saying that if
the allocated seat is unsuitable I could change it before the
season ticket is sent out.
Isn't that nice
Try before you buy - oh, I've already paid, but it's the thought that counts
