Xinhua News Agency, Berlin, April 29 (Reporter Liu Wei) no matter whether the Bundesliga can recover in May, fans are definitely not allowed to enter the stadium. How do the Bundesliga teams deal with the tickets that have been sold?
The reporter recently combed the “refund policy” of 18 Bundesliga clubs and found that the team has the following treatment methods: The first is refund, and you can apply for a refund for both season tickets and single-game tickets. A single ticket is refunded at the original price. In terms of season tickets, the affected game ticket value can be calculated and refunded at the corresponding price. The second is that fans can choose to donate the ticket money to the club or other public welfare organizations; the third is to exchange tickets for future matches or coupons for shops.
For example, Leipzig handles online refund procedures for 120000 tickets out of 160000 tickets already sold. The direct loss of refund is about 2.5 million euros. Among the fans who have purchased tickets in menxing Gladbach, there are relatively few who choose to refund. Menxing lost 500000 euros in the refund, and fans who bought season tickets had to settle after the season was completely over.
Schalke 04 announced to the fans that if the fans who bought the season tickets gave up the refund, they could get a souvenir T-shirt, or get the stadium coupons for next season according to the remaining value of the season tickets, or get coupons from the club’s online fan store.
What is more special is that Schalke has special additional options for the fans who bought the “Ruhr derby” between home court and Dortmund: Fans can choose to give up the refund and donate it to the club, or exchange it for next season’s away derby tickets to Dort, or change it into coupons for fan shops.
Currently, Paderborn, who is at the bottom of the league table, offers four refunds in the refund policy for single-game tickets. Fans can choose to refund the full amount of tickets, or choose 75%, 50%, 25% and other quotas to refund, to varying degrees to show support for the team.
