    Yes it was online. I got tired of playing phone/email tag with the ticket rep.

It wouldn't take much to make their fans feel welcome and appreciated. I have read on here before how others feel that the team 'snubs' their fans and I am beginning to see why.

    I agree with you. It doesn't take much to put together an e-mail thank you. When I received my renewal e-mail back in November it had nothing but a .pdf invoice attached. Though it was probably a mistake as Neely2005 posted the message he and I'm sure others got with their renewal e-mails I know a few other people that got just .pdf invoices as well.

    I wonder if part of it is due to staffing issues. Are they spread to thin now that things are slipping through the cracks?

    I wonder if it comes down to each individual Ticket Representative in regards to the level of communication? Maybe some do more than others? I've been quite happy with my Rep.

    I think communication partially comes down to each rep but I don't think something like a standardized thank you for renewing or welcome e-mail would fall to them. I think that would come from on high that these need to go out, along with updates etc. I have no issues with my rep. Dan Minion has been great whenever I call him.

    Rob Richardson is my Ticket Rep and he has been outstanding.

    I'm not sure how many Ticket Representatives there are but I prefer to have my own rep who I can call or Email directly. There's probably only a few Ticket Reps anyway.

    Best wishes to my Argonaut ticket rep Dan Minion who is leaving the Argonauts, very nice guy.
    Shame the organization has lost some great reps such as Burton Lee and Mitch Scott in the last couple of years, guys who also went way above and beyond in reaching out to their customers and making you feel part of the Argonaut family!

    And this is another reason why so many of us got fed up with Braley.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    I'll have to give him a ring before he leaves, he is my rep as well. I have nothing but positive things to say about him.
