Thats not what my paperwork says. On mine all it says is that you have to renew by the 28th.
Good column on the Jackets season ticket holder dilemma
- Thread starter Swerb
- Start date

Depends on the payment plan you choose when renewing. I think you said you are doing the monthly payment plan, so you would need to pay 1/12 of your renewal price by March 4th to be eligible for the drawings.
At least that is how I interpret it.

That's how I read it too...I think my rep was wrong...oh well. I had about $300 credit from ticket sales on ticket exchange, so she took that off and charged me the equivalent of about twice what my monthly payment would have been...in the end, I'll be making smaller monthly payments. Maybe it'll motivate me to payoff the balance by May 31st.

I just renewed and upgraded psl/seat location. Then, selected my playoff seats.
C'mon boys, make it happen!!!!
We have to win the next two in a row in order to be tied with Minnesota at 9th in the West. Tonight we are playing against Vancouver who has the best home record this season.

So, is anyone going to pay for the full 16 playoff games upfront??
LOL No!
Pay as we play is the only way to go.
Just got off the phone with my rep, and he said a 25% down payment is not necessary for the prize drawings. You can just do the 12-month payment plan, and put down your first payment of 1/12 of the cost by march 28th. So if you call your rep and tell him you're in, you're in.
edit: just realized this entire page was about this same discussion, LOL.
On a related note, my wife says we need to find a partner to share the cost of some of these tickets before we renew. Anyone know of anyone on the fence about buying a 20-game plan for next year? I would sell them one seat for 20 games. Difficulty: You would probably be sitting next to me for those 20 games, but I'm not so bad.
Sez you.
I'm in for next season, just renewed my 20 game package. I asked about the seat upgrade program and was told that they'll include all available seat locations, this year. I presume, in the past, they held some prime spots out so they could use them to attract new buyers. Maybe the current and long-time season ticket holders are going to get more respect from the front office, this year? Can't hurt!

This is contrary to what the literature says. It says that you will be entered once your deposit is received. You could, of course, pay the first of the 12 payments and be eligible, but you would want to do that as soon as possible, since the prizes are only from 3/4 to 3/28

My rep told me yesterday you are entered as soon as any sort of payment is made, it also says that on the bottom of the season ticket holder sweepstakes page from the mailing.
Wouldn't mind winning the March 5th drawing of 2tix, airfare, hotel to round 1 of SCF, but I won't be choosy!

I cant see why ANYONE would do this option. I know why they offer it, so they can get your money to add to next year, but it really makes zero sense

They did screw up the seating locations for people with 20 game PSLs. Got an email from the Jackets today saying they know they screwed up and that 20 PSL owners would get their seats for ever other game (depending on your plan E or F) just like in 2009.

I am a PSL holder with a 20 game plan. For the playoffs we should get our seat location (same as in the season) for every other game. Well when the invoice showed up they had me seating in a totally different seat location. This is what should happen if you have a 20 game plan without a PSL. I was able to get the seat changed to something better thanks to my ticket rep but still not my seat. Well today I got an email from that Jackets saying the screwed up and that I would have my seats for the playoffs. See post 43 and on for the back ground of my last post.

Today's Dogpatch has an article, "Blue Jackets' faithful still waiting for payoff
Some remain patient, others have had enough" on fan sentiment divided into three camps:
"All In" "On the Fence" and "Gone Daddy, Gone"

From the On the Fence position, I found this resonates with my experiences:

Not sure everyone holding a PSL is aware, but they have discontinued any "PSL specific" perks. All events, etc are now on a season plan level. Best perks for to full season ticket holders, no more differentiation between half season STH and those "half-season with a PSL".
In a nutshell, they have rendered our PSL's as totally valueless.
For example, Zoo season kickoff use to be for PSL holders, but is now for Full-season STH only... and they no longer are required to buy a PSL. So if you own a half or quarter season PSL, it is worth NOTHING...

I'm not a PSL holder but surprised the PSL lasted this long. They stopped advertising them several years ago and I've been under the impression the cost to purchase one in recent years was very small.
