A word of warning - buying on line does require you to have a printer or a smartphone (I believe) or to collect today as no tickets can be collected on Saturday. Edit: check this link https://www.rochdaleafc.co.uk/news/2021/july/fleetwoodtownticketinfo/ [Post edited 16 Jul 2021 13:53]

This was announced when SCs first went on sale "Supporters who wish to purchase their Season Card in person will not be able to take their Season Card away with them. They will be available for collection/ will be posted out at a later date. This is to allow staff print the cards/ sync them with your data. For those who purchase online or over the phone, please select either collection or postage when placing your order. Postage will cost £3." Full details here https://www.rochdaleafc.co.uk/news/2021/july/seasoncards-onsale/ I guess the issue is related to printing them. Tbf to the club, the first home game isn't until 14th of August so unless there are benefits you could miss out on which I am unaware, it's not like it's going to get any use for a month? You can contact the club on tickets@rochdaleafc.co.uk or office@rochdaleafc.co.uk if you think there may be a problem however. Sure it will be looked into and you'll get a reply in a couple of days. There is a much more professional feel about what seems to be going on behind the scenes these days. | ![](/images/avatars/17584.gif) |

It's not communication issues at all. The club can't give a date when they don't know. If they give a date and miss it, they'll get criticised for that. The club stated the season cards will be posted out at a later date. If I get mine before the first home game then I'm getting what I signed up for! | ![](/images/avatars/1199.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

You would treat your customers differently to me, you would be prepared to wait until the last minute and think that is good enough. It doesn't take a great effort to post a communication on the official site, after two weeks to say that they are still having problems and they will be communicating again a week later if there are still problems. I studied marketing, and one thing that always stood out to me was the need to DELIGHT your customers, go over the top in exceeding their expectations and your business will do well. Hence, I would send out regular updates, and this lessens the number of phone calls to answer and emails to answer, hence a more efficient organisation. | ![](/images/avatars/1550.gif) |

I think you need to chill out a bit there like. Think of all the turmoil that has been going on at the club lately. The poor ticket office staff are getting to grips with a new ticketing system amidst the madness of the boardroom circus. They stated originally that the tickets would be posted out at a later date, the season doesn’t start for nigh on a month. Every business is the land is presently working under restrictions or with a reduced staffing capacity. Therefore all third party suppliers the club rely on will also be feeling the strain: Errera, season card producers etc. Think we need to remember we are still feeling the effects of a pandemic and sympathy should be afforded to the club. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I seem to remember seeing that season cards were going to be available to be picked up from the beginning of August with an update to follow. I suspect then that those to be posted will be around this date as well. They will probably print and sync in a batch and expect most people who are buying cards to have done so by the end of July. Logistically it makes sense. [Post edited 16 Jul 2021 17:55]

FFS - before ANY cards were sold, the club made it perfectly clear to everyone that despite purchasing and paying the fees,the cards WOULD NOT be available until a later date. Now that is perfectly clear and good communication. When the club are in a position to issue the cards, I'm certain they will contact cardholders to either collect (if arranged) or to give them notice that they are being posted out. I think they have treated their customers properly. | ![](/images/avatars/5895.gif) |

Anyone there ? on 19:39 - Jul 16 with 5257 views | 49thseason | I popped in yesterday queued for 5 minutes and bought a season ticket and a couple of Fleetwood tickets. The system does seem cluncky and it seems that not much info has been transferred from the previous iteration, hence it took maybe 10 minutes to get sorted with a SC and 2 tickets. I also got a strange email this morning that sort of matches what I bought but which also seems to mention a carers ticket? At least if there are not many people there tomorrow the system will get a live test of sorts. | ![](/images/avatars/1190.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
