The start of the ticket rush
« on: July 26, 2014, 07:41:44 AM »
Morning,

Obviously a busy few days ahead. A reminder that the policy for members and public is online.

We want to make the process as quick and easy as possible for everyone - if you do have any queries I will ensure I check on here regularly or I can be contacted via danny.macklin@essexcricket.org.uk or questions@essexcricket.org.uk

Thanks, Danny Macklin, Commercial Director

Is there no queuing system on the ticketline as just get engaged all the time and have to keep ringing back?

Come on. You're only selling 5000 tickets not 40,000.

Just to be positive (not many do that on our Forums), I got through dead on 1pm on Saturday (much to my surprise!), was actually the first person to be dealt with & was sorted within 5 minutes, so Well done for that.

Lucky boy, rung about 30 times during 1 and 4 to get an engaged tone and not even sat in a queue. All sorted now though.

We phoned about 4.00 pm on Saturday. Got through in 2 minutes.

Took less than 5 mins to buy 4 tickets.

Thanks to all concerned

I notice there is forecasts of a fair bit of rain on Saturday, is there a reserve day for this?
