Adrian,

 

There are no more plans available that would guarantee 2005 post-season tickets. I have added your e-mail address to our database, when 2006 season ticket information becomes available, you will receive the information via e-mail.

 

Contact me at the number below if you have any questions.

 

Thank you for your interest in White Sox Baseball!

It's expecially frustrating because I was in touch with an account representative someone two weeks ago trying to get postseason tickets with the 2006 season ticket purchase and they said it was no longer valid.  Had they kep it valid throughout the playoffs and done extra advertising they could have sold so many season tickets and been totally setup for next year.  It just doesn't seem to make sense.  People are throwing money at them and they are denying it.

This sucks!

 

Demand exceeded supply and the ability to service the customers, they would and still will happily take your money....it just wasn't properly planned out. Worse things have happened..the Sox are actually in the World Series people!!!!

I'm still happy they made it and will celebrate nonetheless, i just think they also missed out on an opportunity to do themselves and their fans a favor that's all.

If Natalie is anything like my rep, serious lag time wouldn't be out of the question. My rep actually called me a couple of weeks ago for the first time in 3 years. He wanted to know if I'd be interesting in moving up a few rows. Once again I am not kidding.

Uh.. Dick.. to email/call at the START of the SECOUND ROUND of playoffs inquiring about a ticket offer that got you tickets for the DS, CS, and WS... That's just plain dense.

 

And you need to suck it up and complain about Natalie.

It might be, but that's the date of the return email. It would be interesting to see when he sent it to the White Sox. Anyway, this should all work out in the end. Thousands of dissappointed people are going to make sure they don't have to rely on ticketmaster or overworked and underpaid account reps, and buy ticket plans for next year, thus increasing the season ticketbase significantly. Too bad they didn't build the homerun porch, it could probably pay for itself fairly quickly.

I can't wait to see the reactions of some of you if you get a call from the Sox today, tomorrow, or even Thursday telling you to come pick up your WS tickets and '06 Season Ticket package.

 

meh....if I get them Thursday it will hard to turn them for a profit by Saturday :lol:

 

Should I hold my breath waiting for this phone call?

I'm not blaming account reps nor am I looking to pick fights. My only point is that if the offer were kept alive throughout so that one could have the option of purchasing for the next "possible" series they would have sold more season tickets. That is all.

I don't think anybody would be disappointed with that call.

 

Now stop being such an optimist. :D

She brings up a great point. There was someone from the other site who hadn't been contacted yet, but the credit card was charged. Check with you credit card companies, if they have charged you, its probable they would have tickets for you.

My boss just got the call...all world series are gone.  But if you would still like 06 season tickets..blah blah  He sent in his application last night.

 

 

When this turns out to be bulls***, this person should be banned, IMO.

Your troll radars are far keener than mine then (but I am dim and easily duped). Isn't that the type of call you expect people will start getting if they don't have enouggh WS tickets to meet demand but still have potential live ones on the line for a 2006 full season package sale?

 

rangercal or WOOD, if/when you get a similar call keep us informed. When my Dad is contacted I'll post the substance of tthe communication here as well.

I was one of the dupes who sent in a application last night also - will post what the outcome is when and if I ever hear from them.

I am not a troll. I am sitting right next to my boss. He applied for premium upper box last night online and just got called by the White Sox who said there are no World Series tickets available for him. I however got through and now have season tickets for next year Sec. 533 Row 6
