I tried getting season tickets for a local baseball team but the ordering system was quite literally designed for old people and was driving me insane:

there’s no actual order page online, just this ‘contact us for info!’ button where you have to write them a bespoke little email - like, to a person, not just a form to fill out - and I did that and the dude ///called me//// and didn’t answer when I tried to call back — why for the love of God take this to the phone?? I emailed them!!! I didn’t even want to email them, i wanted to fill out a webpage and put my credit card in! and they throw up all these smarmy sAlEsMaN roadblocks, like jesus man

like is this seriously meant to be like ‘oh that’s such good customer service’ to someone?

    Maybe it’s the best they know how to do.

    Disrespectful or not, if you don’t like it, then you don’t like it. You might just email them about your experience and tell them what you want to have happen. Give them a chance to do that for you.

    And ultimately, which do you value more: the season tickets or your preferred way of buying them? As far as I can tell, there’s no wrong answer, but merely your preference.

    Good luck.
