I have read countless emails about the ticket shambles at the Club. A mate tried to obtain 4 tickets for the Stoke game. He was on the phone for One hour and 45 minutes trying to obtain tickets - I witnessed every last second. Ridiculous. Gave up in the end. Do the club deserve fan loyalty?? I do not think so....

[Cheshunto]

I think phoning the ticket office is a waste of time, as often the call goes unanswered.
I usually Email tickets@leytonorient.net and find the service much better.
I also think Nigel Travis heavily criticised our ticket selling service in our fans forum recently.

It’s for his own good

Did your mate even talk to someone?

I don't think the club can go on with the current situation where you have to email the club to get anything ticket related done. I don't know why the online system is such a mess.

Whoever takes over from Danny Macklin needs to start with this on his or her ‘to do ‘ list.
We should be doing everything possible to sell tickets and encourage fans .

I’ve tried several times this season to buy a ticket online, and have failed every single time. In the end I just had to turn up and join the queue and pay a few quid more. It’s laughably bad.

Hmm - Could this continuing ticketing fiasco be the real reason Danny M is leaving?

Yep

[BIGRON]

I believe the ticket office is closed until Saturday , you can buy tickets online though .

[Smendrick Feaselberg]

Never had a problem buying tickets online.

Is it a PICNIC problem?

Sorry to hear of issues. Urge any fans with issues to contact us so we can address. We have resolved vast majority of issues but not all - we have had to operate with lower staff numbers over Christmas owing to Covid.

We urge fans who can to buy online and I’ve 80% of sales are going online.

We have a 1 working day email response to resolve issues - as always where I can help let me know. Thanks for patience - oh and that’s not why I am leaving - yet more conspiracy theories

Thanks
Danny

Noted. I will tick that one off the list.

But don't be too confident that it won't be resurrected at some future date. It's the way it is with conspiracies. We will get to the bottom of this one eventually. If there's one thing I know it's that the truth comes out in the end.

It was nothing to worry about. I panicked for no reason. Apparently he's leaving to set up a new business in February. Good to get that one cleared up.

I have a ST and dont do many away games as that is sad. So, i don't have to purchase many individual tickets. When I have done though, i find it will work but only if you dont want to do anything out of the ordinary such as choose a different seat or buy extras.

Not having to buy tickets online was my main reason for purchasing a season ticket.

Not an option for me I’m afraid, as I generally work on Saturdays. If it’s not too busy I can crack on and by 1pm I’ll know if I can get away by 2.45 and dash down to the ground. If I could buy a ticket online it’d make it easier. But I use an iPhone or iPad and the ticket page is almost unnavigable and even if I do get through the site’s bank authentication page doesn’t recognise my address and won’t let me purchase a ticket. It’s bizarre.

I usually Email tickets@leytonorient.net and find the service much better.

That's what I do. Send an email with phone number and I get a call back within a few hours, which ain't bad IMO considering how few backroom admin staff we have.

Let this be an example to youse all. Well done Ron.

I don't think my new best friend Dan would mind me disclosing that even he accepts the ticketing arrangements need to improve. Dan's a great guy we are going to have a pint together in the New Year.
