Ole's Testimonial Ticket Advice

Dervish · 27th June 2008, 12:54

Right guys, I was wondering if someone can give me some advice.

My bird has bought tickets for the game via the manutd site, using my account. Being the disorganised twat that I am, the account is linked to an email address and delivery address that is outdated. I didnt check this before she bought them and when she found out the tickets would be dispatched to the wrong address she went a bit apeshit.

Ive since changed my details on the site but i want to confirm it with the ticket office that they'll send them to the right address.

Problem is, the ticket office is fucking closed for the summer.

Does anyone have a telephone number for the club that isnt 0161 8688000 that can help me out? They dont seem to respond to emails either.

If anyone can help I would appreciate it because I really dont want the missus pissed off at me for the next fucking six months.

Cheers.

Woah hang on. The ticket office is closed for the summer? What about sorting out the Charity Shield / shifting remaining pre season friendly tickets?

Dervish · 27th June 2008, 13:03

I say its closed, the girlfriend called today and got an automated response saying they were closed.

They encourage people to order them online since the old 08454421994 number was changed to the 0161.

I just want to speak to a real fucking person there rather than an answer phone.

She's bullshitting you mate - They don't close for the summer, they just have "unusually high call volumes" still. Probblay still processing season tickets.

Wonderful. I love the caf and it's insightful posts. Cheers.

dialing the 0161 is about as much use as a condom in a thunder storm. Hence the request for another number.

Again, wonderful.

Sorry, misread your posts - for some reason I thought you said "Problem is, the ticket office is fucking closed for the summer" and "the girlfriend called today and got an automated response saying they were closed"... My bad.

Long and the short is you're just going to have to wait like every other fecker who tries to get through to that shitty ticket office.

Brad · 27th June 2008, 15:27

Just to clear up though, the ticket office doesn't close for summer?

They can't really can they? They've just finished renewing 40-50,000 odd permanent season tickets, and moved on to upgrading 5-10,000 one years. On Sunday they start selling one years to members, and all teh while thye have tickets to flog for pre-season and, in a few weeks, league matches. And there's only about 3 of them to get all this done.

Are you really this sad, small and fucking pedantic in your everyday life? Jesus Christ, all I wanted was an alternative number to get in touch with member services directly. Guess that was too much of an ask for an internet male such as yourself.

So in conclusion, fuck off. Cunt.

Regardless, I have managed to sort it out. Thanks.

If you don't like people taking the piss, might I suggest posting in a Disney forum. It's always sunny at Disneyland/world, and the ticket office is staffed 24 hours a day by friendly elves and woodland creatures who are more than happy to help.

Even with people like yourself.

So to recap:

- You fuck up when your girlfriend orders the tickets
- Your girlfriend says the ticket office is closed
- The ticket office isn't closed
- You're an idiot

Oh the irony. I hope I didn't ruin your weekend.

Bangor_Red · 30th June 2008, 13:12

did your girlfriend maybe phone during the night, or after closing hours?hence the office being closed?

Since you found out another number, you gonna share it with the caf for future use, or are you pissed at being schoolboyed, and huffing with everyone now?

A1Dan · 30th June 2008, 13:19

If I promise to give your dinner money back, will you tell us the other number?
