AFL Silver Membership Waitlist Number

[nobbyiscool]

It was $140 or something.

I mean it's still smart to keep your waiting list number and even your membership, as they keep up the threat to phase out new sign-ups. But it'd be nice to get something. Ah well, it's still better than signing up again and paying another 250-plus-bucks.

Thanks for the info mate, that helps a lot.

You're right though, $140 is a fair whack just to preserve a wait list number. It would be nice to get 1-2 tickets with that.

Pretty sure when my dad took the absentee option a couple of years ago he got access to 2 or 3 games.

Last year with the absentee membership I received 2 complimentary tickets.

Anyone else seen the MCG seating arrangements? I know for a fact I've been able to get N17 onwards in the past, but if I'm reading this right, then they've screwed AFL Membership seating to fit in "AFL Bays", whatever that means - but it doesn't look like seats we can book.

So now Level N is almost out of the equation. Correct me if I'm wrong - I understand there's 20? seats per row, and 11 rows per bay. This equates to around 1,320 seats allocated to "AFL Bays" that I know I could book previously (unsure about N15 and N16)

Etihad still is the worst deal around for AFL members. These seats are also given to club members. I don't know why they couldn't also grant some L3 Premium as AFL Reserve allocated from on-sale.

This in addition to the Bronze additions plus the decision not to remember the Guest Pass screwing of the system... AFL Members look like they're getting less and less value for money.

Of course I could be over-reacting if my facts above are wrong, but I don't think I'm wrong.

I've never seen it published like this, but last year i went to a game as a medallion club ticket and ended up in these seats. I think they are just formalising how they are screwing over the afl members, rather than previously screwing them over by flogging off all the good seats without publicising it.

The seats were so full of tossers, the game was devoid of passion. Decided I'd rather sit on level 4.

Oh really? That's decent customer service. How did they arrive? Were they at will call or just in the mail or was the card set up with that limit?

Might try and hit them up because I'll be here for two or three rounds and wouldn't mind catching the odd game.

In the form of 2 small cut out coupons I believe. I was overseas last year and remember seeing something when I returned. But I had so much mail on my return I can't remember precisely.

Cant remember how it worked, I assumed he would've been given a coupon to by a ticket online but I couldn't be certain.

Has anybody received their card yet?

Yeah before christmas

 

[hoddo22]

Looks like I'm making a phone call this morning then.

 

[funk44]

A mate of mine hasn't got his card yet either. He's complained several times and they've done nothing.

 

[Black Panther]

Has anybody received their card yet?

Mine arrived yesterday ... despite paying for it in full in November

 

[hoddo22]

Just got off the phone. It was sent early December but I obviously never received it.

A new one is being processed and I should get it in 10-12 days.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Mine was sent like, December (middle of) at the latest.

Their emails have taken longer than usual to be replied too, however.

when do rounds 1-5 tickets normally go on sale?

Tuesday the 28th of Feb.

Frustrating that you can't get guest passes but understandable at the same time.

The first round of sales should be solely for afl members. Nothing frustrating about it at all.

Does anyone know if the 40 game allocation is inclusive of finals? I.e can I attend 40 games in the home and away season and also attend finals or would I have maxed out?

the AFL T&C mentions the 40 as the Premiership Season with finals separate

based on that, it seems like it ISN'T inclusive

 

[pepsi]

Has anyone hit 40 in a season? Think the most I ever got to was 25.

I've gotten close....

 

[Silent Alarm]

I reckon I went to 38 one season, my first year, but it might've included pre-season or finals.

Word on the street is that they don't actually count how many games you've gone to. Apparently people have gone to more than 40...

If you log in to your membership on the website it keeps a tally of how many games you've attended/reserved seats for. Not sure if it actually cuts you off at 40 or not though, I'll never get close enough to find out my wife would divorce me

I'm hoping do to 30 this year, including finals. Pretty optimistic probably and wanting to go to a non-Vic match that the Eagles play in may disrupt it. But I figure if I can chalk up a few in the first round and then get a couple over Easter I should be in with a chance.
