Has the ticket office stopped the 661 1875 direct phone number for questions?
Just to clarify, I’m not assuming I asked.Quote:

My email from Hibs re my away season ticket for the Dundee Utd game, doesn’t add anything on to the actual ticket price!
I’ll check tomorrow when the transaction goes through
That might be because you have an away season ticket.Quote:

Doesn’t say anything about away games on the articleQuote:

Online purchase of mobile ticketing, print at home or purchased at ticket office is free. That should cover majority of home games.
Hibs no longer absorbing the Ticketmaster costs will save the club a fortune - one I hope can be put to good use.
On the flip, ticket prices are forever increasing, without the addition of a booking fee - ultimately in the hands of away teams here - but hoping we can negotiate and influencing others on prices with this in mind.

So as I understand it, the charge is basically going to apply to tickets bought in advance for every away game unless it's bought at the ticket office?Quote:

Kieran, just out of interest, do you know if other teams in the league charge the admin fee for the sale of away tickets?Quote:

What about wheelchair tickets bought over the phone via the disabled hotline at the ER ticket office?Quote:

When will we be able to Print at home for rangers, celtic, hearts, killie etc who all have barcode/QR code entry systems? Seems pointless having these systems and not letting fans use the benefits of them.Quote:

That’s good for you but a lot of folk don’t have that opportunity. The club have raised the season tickets significantly for students this year and upped the tickets for games against Aberdeen to a ridiculous £28 so it’s not the only thing this season.Quote:

‘A ridiculous £28’ - I’m not sure what’s massively ridiculous about that? It’s not quite a category A game but bigger than a category B game, so prices slap bang in the middle. Students were getting season tickets for about £135 before this year, that is £7 per game. If you don’t think students (many of whom are better off than most working families) then fair play but I don’t see how £195 (£10 per game) is too much and is still a cracking deal.Quote:
