Tosh1218 592 Posted August 16, 2021 Can anyone explain how at the beginning of the season when booking pre ordered tickets for Scunthorpe Scorpions through the BSPA ‘s official ticket supplier Seatedly they had a 3% handling fee of 45pence on an OAP ticket so 45 pence was added to the order . For last weeks match v Redcar at home the same ticket had a handling fee of £1.70 so approx 11% handling fee is now been added . Surely the BSPA agreed a deal with the ticket supplier for the full season and there for the ticket supplier is breaching there contract with the BSPA , would like to know if this is been replicated over the 3 leagues and if there has been a press release as they have changed there Terms and Conduct. . Thanks in advance for any replies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance for any replies There is no contract with the BSPA. Each club chose which ticket vendor to go with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"account" for, ahem 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also don't understand the tyre thing, they've always had to be collected from a distributer of sorts. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were delivered to Armadale earlier in the season. Last batch had to be picked up from Scunthorpe. Kye Thomson went for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But every year they've had to be picked up or delivered from the supplier, although given there was more choice of supplier. Don't see how Rob is making money from them being collected Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
