What about the remaining season ticket games from 2019/2020 they are not saying anything about honouring this latest post hampers have put out in the press it’s disgusting it does not even mention the games remaining on the season-ticket From what is owed to the fans who have season tickets Do they value our loyalty or not as fans I’m putting the season-ticket application out saying only renewals hey stupid as I want the money upfront tGary needs to sort this out and give some clarity are the fans and what is going on with the games that are owed on our season ticket if not we should alright to the league and boycott the hockey until they sort this out out I hope when you raise this with Panthers office you'll put some punctuation in as it doesn't make much sense otherwise. I'm in exactly the same boat, however, as much as it annoys me that they haven't sorted it out yet, and you could think they've 'got you over a barrel' I'll still renew in the hope that the season goes ahead. BUT, if it does get cancelled again without us seeing any games, I'd be EXTREMELY annoyed if they hung on to the full amount for any longer than is necessary. My employers have had to deal with hundreds of people who booked holidays/day trips and then they got cancelled or moved, and it's been an absolute minefield for us to sort out. So Panthers have (a little) sympathy from me. |

In reply to a tweet they do say the 5 games will not be pre season games.

I think they added that after the initial release, but at least it gives those affected a time. I see Gary's put block 19 as silver. Textbook  |

Can't say I'm too thrilled about the tickets only being sent via the post.
What's wrong collecting them from the arena like normal.
It's not as if they won't be serving concessions therefore I don't really see the difference.
Or what's wrong with the tickets being sent online. Seriously, Rock City and Theatre Royal/Concert Hall do scanned tickets.

I feel for those still awaiting the 5 game return.
The club are dealing with the next season tickets first but what gets me is that those 5 games are not going to be sorted till JULY time. What if people are not wanting to renew?
I mean this wait affects their decision or should I say they may want to see what's on offer BEFORE splashing out on anything just yet.
Other clubs seem to being allowing direct debit payments also. The club worried people may cancel payment part way?

And what happens if there is no team in Glasgow.
That’ll muck up how many games there are.
Don’t think I’d be risking buying a season ticket.

They clearly don't know how many games there will be yet as 25 games doesn't work out easily. 10 teams playing each other 6 times means 27 home games. Could conferences be back? Might make sense to minimise travel ATM. Feels to me they've picked a safe number and that there will be one or two extra games depending on final league format. |

They're saying that your season ticket will cover 25 games, but I don't think there will be only 25 home league games. I think they don't know how many so they're hedging their bets that it'll be at least 25. Given they owe a lot of people 5 games already, I doubt they want to end up owing even more by advertising too many games. |

]I am not renewing my season ticket until I know what’s going on remaining games Remaining games on my season ticket from 2019 two 2020 because I will be paying for the games again that I am already owed on my season-ticket he should’ve took the games off there annual. Bye lowering the price of a renewal
I am not happy to buy a season ticket when I am paying again for games owed to me They haven’t thought Until they sort out remaining games owed to the fans I am not buying a season ticket as I stated we will be paying twice for the games over to us so get so Panthers get your act together I’ll sort it out now or you will lose fans[

The new season ticket will cover the games stated with no discount for the games owed. The club has made that clear. I think at times it has been difficult for the club to work out what to do for the best without any certainty of when things will start happening again. Now though I believe they should have given some clearer comms to the fans on what they intend to offer for those games lost. |

I was going to edit that to add some punctuation but it defeated me. We do ask that posts are written legibly, we're not expecting perfect prose but it makes it quite hard to comprehend the points being made.
On topic, they said they'd make an announcement in July, as much as I appreciate how annoying it must be to still be in the dark, it's only the 4th. I would expect something out this week most likely.

Agree that it's been very poorly handled.
I'm assuming money's pretty tight, given the constant raffling off of anything that's not nailed down, otherwise they'd have been better off just paying it back a year ago, clean the slate.

I was going to post this is the Season Ticket thread but this thread got bumped up and some of the points I was going to make so if you'll indulge me, I'll post them here:
I feel for those wishing to pay in installments but can't, it does seem silly that other clubs can do it. Another poster pointed out that they may be worried about people cancelling. Whilst I'm not sure of the legal stuff but could it be in the terms and conditions that you can't cancel (Similar to 12 month contacts companies use)
It would be nice to know what these 5 owed games are (I think it's Challenge Cup and Play Off tickets) but it'll be nice to know also would we need that year's Season Ticket?
As I pointed out previously, I am not happy that this year's Season Ticket is being sent out via Recored Mail. It's a lot of money I've spent on it and TBH, I want to be able to collect it personally therefore eleminating any issues that may come.
Previous communications have stated that it'll be sent out 10 days beforehand, but I'd certainly like to think that they are going to be sent out beforehand because flooding Royal Mail with a lot of Recored Mail at the same time isn't a good idea (Yes I know what some of you will say about that)
Also will I be notified by e-mail that it's been sent out and I can track it (My address is very similar to my neighbor) and I want the package to be handed to me personally and not signed for by someone else (This is a big issue for me as I'm likely to be at work at the time of delivery)
What I don't get is the fact that I can't collect from The Arena. It's like they are saying there will be no staff on to deal with it nor do they have the capability to do online tickets. Other places have that capability inlcuding Rock City. I'm pretty sure that people were able to have online tickets for previous Panther Home Games so what is stopping them from doing it for Season Tickets. Create a App for it if you have too.
It seroiusly seems like The Panthers And/or Arena have regressed.
Rant over

I don’t see why money should be tight when it costs them hardly anything when hockey isn’t being played. The only real cost they have is office staff and they’ll all have been furloughed so the government were paying that cost. With all these raffles I’d bet Panthers have even been making money without even playing. |

Not sure if you'd need to set anything up on paypal yourself first, but it does come up as an option on mine. *That's a general you by the way, not really aimed at OP. 😁 |

So on paypal there are 2 options, "Pay in 3" or "PayPal Finance". The first breaks it up into 3 equal payments paid over the next 2 months (first payment is on the day of purchase). It is a credit facility so they will do a credit check on you as they pay the club in full on day 1 and you owe paypal the rest. The other one that they sometimes advertise is PayPal finance, this is a more general credit account rather than specific to 1 purchase, however they usually give you 3-6 months interest free on all purchases. However it's more like a credit card where you can determine repayments. Either way, they are credit products with PayPal and not the club and come with the usual warnings and notices that accompany any credit agreement, late payment will affect your credit rating, making only minimum payments (on the latter method) will drastically increase the amount you pay back, etc... Ps. Not a financial advisor and this is not financial advice. |

Why are the fixtures not out They had the fixtures meeting the other day Why are panthers not letting us know what they’re doing with the remaining games on the season-ticket 2019 /2020 This is getting stupid that’s why a lot of people are not Signing up for season ticket and Also why can’t we have a direct debit option as Cardiff have done one It is stupid if you can’t pick it up at the Arena if they are making us have it posted they should pay the postage not us as it’s not our fault we are having to have it posted to us Can we sort this . I think it is disgraceful the organisation has done this and they need to sort this out ASAP And so they need Get of their bums and I’ll sort this out
Because I think it’s disgraceful and they’re not thinking of the fans they have they will lose fans So sort this out it’s getting beyond a joke now

This forum has literally ZERO influence on any of this. The constant repetition of your issues on here will change NOTHING. Fixtures are usually released mid July. I get your frustration with the season ticket but none of us here can help And Panthers have explained the reason DD can’t be set up. Whether you agree or not has no bearing on your ability to change it. They’ve given people longer to save money to buy one 🤷♂️ |
