I called the ticket office this morning. They said that they started calling people on the waiting list for Football Tickets yesterday. They said that everyone on the waiting list should know by the end of the week if they got tickets or not. The guy said he did not know the cut off ranking. Has anyone here got a call yet? If you have what is your TAF rank?

I got a completely different answer when I just called the ticket office. The guy said they have not started calling anyone about season ticket waiting list and will probably start in a few weeks. I called him out saying someone told me they had started calling yesterday but he denied it. You could call back and get a compeletely different answer from another employee. Rarely do the people answering the phone there know what they are talking about.

Thats strange because I was first told that they started calling people yesterday by TAF, then she transfered my to the ticket office when I asked if she knew the cutoff rank. And the ticket office guy also said they started calling people yesterday.

This is so true. I don't call anymore. It's pointless.

I called about 1:30 and they told me they would start calling toward the end of the week and be through by the end of next week. As we know he verified (whatever that's worth) very few cancellations on renewals. He did say they would email first to say about when the call would be. Whatever!!!!!

In the past, the ticket office wasn't really involved. Jamie Graham from the TAF did the calling. I was on the waiting list the last two years (trying to get more tickets for kids) and both times, Jamie called.

So, I'm guessing that the people in the ticket office really don't have a clue. If you can get in touch with Jamie Graham, she's probably the person who can set you straight.

BTW, I'm on the waiting list and I haven't been called.

They are calling their buddies first. Then they will get to the "waiting list".

Last year, they started making calls in the beginning of June and it took them about a month. I got a letter after that saying I didn't get them but it gave me a breakdown of the numbers. I was 21 spots behind the last person to get a single(6071).

Just curious, with that ranking, were you offered that 3 game mini season plan?

They are calling people this week, but they won't be finished this week. Top 750 TAF members won't be finished until Thursday or Friday.

They'll send an e-mail about 3 days before they intend to call you so you can know to be expecting it.

Yeah I got the offer. I thought it was 4 games though, whatever. I didn't buy them because I bought some tickets from a friend.

I've never gotten the e-mail. BOth times I've been called, it's been a surprise call at work during the day. I had my working/day number on file with the TAF and that's the number Jamie has called me at.

Then again, I'm something like #3900 in Priority Points, so I guess I don't really warrant an e-mail.

Were there any decent games offered in that package?
