2017 renewals

[PullTogether73]

I run to the mailbox each day in anticipation of an Argos Christmas card being sent in my name, only to be disappointment each and every time.

You'll get your Argonauts Christmas greeting in an e-mail, just like the rest of us.

(People still send physical cards via snail mail?)

I had an interaction with Sara Moore at Grey Cup and told her that these benefits were a great start but they were just giving back what was taken away from us. At that point the 4 extra tickets wasn't discussed nor were any details of the benefits. So I asked what they were going to do to attract new fans into the stadium. She got annoyed with me said she got my letter and walked away. I didn't think I asked an unreasonable question. I think the 4 tickets is a great way for season ticket holders to bring new fans to games. Wish the merchandise discount applied in stadium though. 10% off when you still have to pay for shipping isn't much of a deal. Might as well just buy at the stadium for full price.

That being said, I am still not renewing my seats. I know Angelo doesn't agree with my decision...but in the end it's my money and I choose how I spend it.

I never had a problem with your decision. The problem I had was that you decided to start an entire thread about it. I don't think it was necessary. All it does is bring out more negative feelings. If you wanted to start a big thread about it, you should have done it on a Ti-Cats fan forum, where people would have been happy to see it. IMO, the last thing this site needs is for a MOD to start the thread that you did, dissing the team that we all cheer for. This is after all ArgoFANS.com.

Well to be fair. Considering the letter you wrote there was no upside for her to spend any time talking to you about it. So why waste the time when she could move on to more upbeat exchanges at GC.

[Mightygoose]

Agreed with your thoughts but understand your decision is deeper than the benefits. Hope the merch. discount in stadium gets added once the season starts. Also hope things are good this year and hope t have you in back in the fold for 2018!

Really disappointed but not surprised by Sara's reaction. I think she knows she's a dead in the water with the team.

I removed her as a moderator at her request when she made the announcement. I hadn't noticed that it still appears under her name as they do not appear to be linked in the mod settings.

Very few seats available in the first row of the West upper deck, maybe I'm better off waiting to see if seats open up in January.

I'll re-echo what Gabe just said in this thread!

I just call from the Argo office this afternoon, from a Candace also working with Rob Richardson in calling the season ticket holders.
Trying to entice me with the big $50 CREDIT.
Boy did I unload on her, mind you in a nice way not belligerent.
Realizing she was only the messenger.
Gave her several concerns from the on field product, the game days and right at the top feeling ripped off by the GC tickets, mine like most of you were half price or less after we purchased.
Told her also I am meeting with a bunch of my neighbours to see our further course of action on top of which there is no way I will renew until the schedule comes out.
Told her I will not be pressured to renew with their deadline at the end of January, since she indicated the schedule will be out likely in February at the earliest.
The games cannot be all through the week except Wednesday, has to be the weekend.
Any one else get a call?

Curious, did they have the phones ringing again? We're you able to find out how many ST have been sold this year?

Get lost.

LMFAO...People at work think I've lost my mind.

I played telephone tag with Michael Carter all week, and finally spoke to him and renewed today. Nice guy, and I'm sure he was very happy that I was on his list of people to call rather than AT.

This is imperative information that needs to be found out.

yes it is. Asap.

[Treblecharger1]

Renewed back in 114... Great group of guys in that section.

[R.J]

I also have a new ticket rep for the Argos, and a new ticket rep for the Rock as well. I received my phone call earlier this week, and I brought up that the plan right now is not to renew, and I wanted my credit paid back. I explained that until Barker and Milanovich are gone (also brought up how much I loathed the Drew Willy trade) that I wouldn't be coming back.

[BATKINSON001]

I just renewed. I had a credit on my visa from a Kickstarter charge that was refunded so my $300 season seat ($220 after Argos credit - 50 + 30) was only around $120.

I couldn't resist at that price. Btw anyone know what the crf charge is in the price breakdown?
