It hasn't been difficult though.

In your opinion and for you maybe not but for me and many others I've spoken to its been very difficult and certainly more difficult that it should have been.

Maybe not for you, but for those of us that require special arrangements it was almost impossible. There was no mention on Hull's media release about where to buy Disabled tickets, no mention on Ticketmaster about buying same tickets, had to ring Ticketmaster (spent £20 trying to get through) to be told RFL selling them. Spent another £10 ringing someone called Lucy Hirsts voicemail at the RFL (which told me she was busy and cut me off every time), then had to ring our club to try and get somewhere. I then called a very harassed receptionist at the RFL who took my number and I eventually got a call back from the RFL. It took 2 hours and 45 mins from start to finish (starting at 10am as per Hull's press release to realise they actually went on sale at 9am, whose fault there then?) All this time I was on holiday, feeling quite angry having to go through all of this when there shouldn't have been any need whatsoever.

I buy disabled seating tickets for various RL games and concerts around the country and I've never, ever had the problems that I did on Wednesday.

It's great having Standee back isn't it

But you called the Keepmoat direct (who would have such information?) and got sorted? If you're paying that much for mobile calls suggest you hop around a bit.

I sympathise with your specific circumstances, but the sale of general tickets was handled as advertised.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

No I didn't! I called the RFL along with the other thousands of Hull fans. I'm not paying that much for calls, I'm on a contract that requires me to top up before I call 7p a minute calls, not that its any of your business really.

And I didn't see anywhere were it was advertised to buy disabled seating tickets, sometimes you have to call the venue its self, sometimes you call the promoter, sometimes Ticketmaster have them for sale. I had to speak to a Ticketmaster operator who told us that was what he had to tell people.

If it is you Standee I thought you had turned over a new leaf

You're not fooling anyone Martin.

Not quite as mentioned the club advertised tickets on sale at 10am but infact went on sale at 9am, it has been handled poorly.

Quite what your opinion on someone else mobile phone cost has to do with anything either but calls to certain numbers cost when calling from mobiles.

I hadn't realised the RFL was a premium rate number, I apologise if White Star was offended.
He/She did post the Doncaster number on Wednesday, so mind isn't totally shot!

Hopefully everyone has/gets the tickets they need.

Oh I should have bought them last week! I wish I had thought of that instead of being on the phone for two hours NOT buying them last week.

Are you sorted now? (I hadn't seen mention of 2 hours on the phone last week, did you also try online and have the same issue?)

The Keepmoat number was for the disabled car parking as passed on to me from the RFL. I wasn't offended, just wanting some people to accept that there was a problem for some of us who chose to go down the route that the club advertised for Wednesday tickets.

As others have said, what should have been a straightforward transaction (a little wait on the phone or a queue on line acceptable) turned into something of a farce. For what its worth I was on holiday on Wednesday, coming home Saturday afternoon, I originally was happy they were on sale online or via RFL because I thought they would be going on sale from the club while I was away. I'd be intrigued to know what the reasons where for doing it the way they did, it worked perfectly well last year, the tickets being sold from a couple of terminals from the club shop.

I don't think the club will explain, unless people write to them etc. Let's hope we win and any issues people had are worthwhile.
