This is part of the £20 they want from ST

If the season-ticket holder cannot make the match, rather than the seat going spare, the season-ticket holder can sell the seat back to the club for a ‘fee’ which can then be used for a future ticketing purchase. The seat becomes free and the club can then sell it as a match-day sale, while the season-ticket holder makes something back from it.

Why give it back to Argyle to make money when fans will be fighting for them

Last year we all had fixture list for free, now we have to pay for a  fixture-list poster.

I collected the five family ST from ticket office for years, now we will have to pay £3 each to be posted for us.

They have a portable ticket trailer, park it outside Devonport end for fans  to collect. Porkie could man it.

Season-Ticket Holder: £20 per season

Exclusive monthly prize draw
Ticket exchange on sold-out fixtures
Printed fixture-list poster
Signed letter from Derek Adams
Collectible Argyle pen

Same thing when purchasing tickets for the pavilions. You have to purchase them from a legal tout and then get charged a booking fee, for each ticket. Robbing bastard.

In government terms, it used to be called stealth taxes.  Allows the headline price to legally misinform.
The internet has enabled an explosion of such "middle man" software intensive, largely labour free scripts that skim off the top'
In simple terms, a modern day form of toll gate.  [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
You'll be charged a booking fee for your pasty next.
POTD cash fans have always been charged a match day premium, and that's without booking. Where were the ST holders then ? cat

Signed letter from Derek Adams? Unless it's individually and personally written to each fan it's just more arse paper just what is the point of that?
As for the booking fee it just shows class war in action all the touts who used to bump up their wages with a bit of toutery now and again have been replaced by the likes of ticketing solutions and their ilk. A friend of mine recently shelled out £750 for a six nations ticket, fools and their money an all that but if a bloke down the pub had done it he would be bagel up for five years and have his house confiscated.
As a teenager we sometimes used to hang around outside big gigs until they had strated and the touts would let have a half price ticket if they'd had a good night.
