Old Timer Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Can't think why they didn't just announce 100% pick up from the off. Given the small number they could just about have hand delivered them to the accommodation address ! Agree with Bristolhibby that this needs announced prior to sale commencing even if it's only by notification on the sales page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(assuming they're QR/bar codes) Should be 100% pick up, cheap ticket and small number, easy to oversee surely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easy_1967 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) I'd like to be optimistic about allocations & even 100% pick-up but the e-mail exchanges I've had with the SSC this week very much gave the impression that they couldn't care less. I'd be surprised at this stage if they even bothered to ask for more than the initial allocation we were given, and I was told quite clearly that 100% pick-up wasn't an option as they didn't have the resources or facilities to do it (which, given I've often picked up tickets from a hotel lobby or even the odd pub, and there's chat now of them doing it afterall, seems like a bit of a cop out). Leaves a bit of a sour taste that it's in exactly these types of situations you'd expect them to go a bit above & beyond for the fans, but I'm more than content with the home end plan by this stage.

This is more about Covid protocols! Incidentally I’ve just been pinged as having to isolate due to close contact on my flight back to Edinburgh last Thursday! Also know of others who have tested positive since last week so Covids still a threat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes back negative then you can stop isolating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be dinged 6 days after travelling shows the system not ideal! My pal had to walk off his building site yesterday because he was pinged! I think my plan for Moldova will be to do whatever test is required for arriving back then book an NHS PCR about a week later as back up to cover for  being pinged as is likely to happen after arriving back on an almost 4 hour flight!

Yes, but does need to isolate until the PCR returns negative. If positive, obviously he has to isolate.  J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
