5.9 If a Seller sells a Ticket through the System, once the Seller’s Balance has been credited with an amount equal to the Seller’s Amount and provided that the Seller’s Account is a UK bank account, the Seller may submit a request to us to withdraw funds into the Seller’s Account from the Seller’s Balance by following the procedure set out at paragraph 5.10 below.
5.10 During such periods as indicated by us on the ticketing section of the Website from time to time (the “Withdrawal Period”), a Seller with its Seller’s Balance in credit may log into the Website and submit a request to us through the System to transfer all or part of the Seller’s Balance to the Seller’s Account (a “Transfer Request”) provided that the Seller’s Account is a UK bank account.
5.11 All Transfer Requests must be for a minimum of ten pounds sterling (£10) and cannot be for a sum greater than the Seller’s Balance at the time when the Transfer Request is received by us.
5.12 On receipt of a Transfer Request submitted by a Seller pursuant to paragraph 5.10, subject to the sum which is the subject of the Transfer Request being equal to or less than the Seller’s Balance and provided that the Seller’s Account is a UK bank account, we will arrange the transfer of the requested funds to the Seller’s Account within a reasonable time following the end of the Withdrawal Period.
5.13 Once the funds have been transferred in accordance with paragraph 5.12, the Seller’s Balance will be updated and the Seller will be able to view the status of the transfer by logging into the Website. If for any reason the transfer is not successful (for example, if the Seller’s Account details are incorrect) the System will also be updated and the Seller will be able to view the status of the transfer by logging into Website. If the transfer is not successful the Seller will have an opportunity to submit a separate Transfer Request during the next Withdrawal Period.
5.14 You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy and security of the Seller’s Account details you have provided to us. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with your obligation under this paragraph 5.14. By submitting a Transfer Request, you are thereby authorising us to transfer the relevant funds held by us on your behalf to the Seller’s Account.
5.15 If the Seller’s Account is not a UK bank account, or if the Seller does not make a Transfer Request, or if for any reason a request is submitted but funds are not transferred to the Seller’s Account, then we will hold any amounts credited to the Seller’s Balance on account for the Seller and:
5.15.1 if the Seller elects to renew his/her/their season ticket by credit card or debit card for the following season, then the amount credited to the Seller’s Balance on the Invoice Date will automatically be set off against the amount due from the Seller for renewing his/her/their season ticket for that season; or
5.15.2 if the Seller does not elect to renew his/her/their season ticket by credit card or debit card for the following season, then we shall reimburse the Seller for the amount credited to the Seller’s Balance that has not been, or will not be, set off in accordance with paragraph 5.15.1following the end of each season (on a date determined by us in our sole discretion).
5.16 You shall be responsible for any breach of these terms and conditions or by any person to whom you sell any Ticket through the System that is designated by you under paragraph 5.3 of these terms and conditions and/or by any third party to whom the Ticket is subsequently sold in accordance with paragraph 5.7.

Any purchase of a Ticket through the System can be paid for by credit or debit card and the Buyer’s credit or debit card will be charged upon our confirmation of the Buyer’s purchase by email. All payments must be received in fully cleared funds. A Buyer may not purchase more than four (4) Tickets for a particular Match without our prior consent.

To the extent that a Buyer has a Membership Card which is not otherwise being used for that Match, and the Ticket is purchased prior to the tickets for the relevant Match being made available for general sale, that Membership Card will be activated to permit admittance to the Ground for one of the Tickets purchased.
6.4 If a Ticket is purchased after the tickets for the relevant Match have been made available for general sale, or if the Buyer does not have a Membership Card, an administrative fee will be added to the Price. The Buyer will be informed of the applicable method of ticket delivery at the point of purchase.
6.5 No refund is available to any Buyer once a purchase has completed in accordance with the terms of this paragraph 6.
6.6 The Price is inclusive of VAT (unless otherwise stated). The Price is liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect any Ticket purchases for which you have already paid.
6.7 If any compulsory credit card, debit card or other payment processing charges apply, we shall notify the Buyer of the same prior to booking and such amount shall be added to the Price.
6.8 The Price will be as quoted on the Website, except in cases of obvious error. Whilst we try to ensure that the Price and other information on the Website is correct at all times, errors may occasionally occur. If we discover an error in the Price or nature of the Ticket the Buyer has purchased, we will inform the Buyer as soon as possible, and give the Buyer the option of reconfirming their purchase at the correct price/specification or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact the Buyer within a reasonable period, we will unfortunately have to treat the purchase as cancelled. If the purchase is cancelled, we will provide the Buyer with a full refund.
6.9 No Ticket purchased by a Buyer may be subsequently sold, offered for sale, gifted or otherwise transferred by such Buyer (or a third party) to any other person or body corporate, save that in the event that the Buyer purchases more than one Ticket for a Match then one Ticket must be retained by the Buyer for personal use and the remainder may be transferred to a Guest(s) for his/her/their personal use only provided that:
6.9.1 Such transfer takes place in consideration of no payment or benefit in excess of the face value of the Ticket for that Match;
6.9.2 such transfer does not take place in the course of any business or for the purpose of facilitating any third party’s business;
6.9.3 such transfer to any Guest(s) will be subject to the Ticketing Terms which will (save for any rights to sell, offer for sale, gift or transfer that Ticket) apply to and bind each Guest as if he/she was the original purchaser of the Ticket for that Match only (and the Buyer must inform the Guest of this);
