Response from the club

[Curtis]

Question for fellow Toffees but as it's been established I was set to attend the derby flying from the states , Pittsburgh Pa for the first time in my life, the game was rightly called off due to safety concerns me and my friend spent 300 dollars for tickets each which he loaned me the money and i eventually paid him back but the tickets are non reimbursed since resale have to pick them up in person which which he might be able to do when the game is rescheduled but my financial means are a little more lacking. I sent an email to the club explaining my situation and they did not respond. If there any other channels of communication? I'm not even expecting anything at this point even a response where a basic statement of sorry about the situation but unfortunately we can't do anything regarding a gestue, the complete lack of response is vexing

Send me your bank details and your mother’s maiden name mate, and the name of your first pet. I’ll sort it out for you

Im sorry you missed out mate , on the ticket front the club advises against buying from unauthorised agents so they’ll probably swerve that completely and view it as nothing to do with them .

Unfortunately for you the Aussie lad got some publicity and caught the attention of the club and got looked after . I’d love someone to reply . I’d imagine your best bet would be supporter liaison , if it’s still a thing , or fan engagement.

Good luck but don’t hold your breath

How long have you been waiting?

You could try reaching out directly to some Everton FC employees via LinkedIn.

Or create a post there to say how proud you are that the club lived up to its People's Club motto and that you find yourself in a similar situation to the Australian lad, then tag a few people. It could get a bit of traction and visibility.

Tried connecting with the club via social media?

Some food for thought. I hope something good can come out of this terribly unfortunate situation.

I can send you my bank details but the joke would be on you

Since Saturday I sent a message through the general enquiries page and no response, have not reached out through social media , good suggestions thank you, yeah I feel it's very unlikely anything will come about from it. The one thing I don't understand about the Australian lad is who did his family contact or did his family already have connections ?

I doubt club will help you, because they don't want to encourage fans buying from unoffical sources. Ric Wee was in hospitality box, he had got from club directly. I wouldn't advise buying tickets over face value, someone on here will always help you for average match.

Dunno pal, but I guess it may be easier to have more sympathy for a 15-year-old lad that's traveled (according to him) over 30 hours just to get to Liverpool (not saying it's right or wrong to have more sympathy vs yourself BTW as I feel terrible for you). Obviously it's been very good PR for club as well...

Everton In The Community.
Can’t even reply to their fans emails….what a fraud they are.

I agree it's a slam dunk for everton to do the pr move for the kid doesn't elicit the same heart warming narrative with a 40 year old man

Bah humbug. Shouldn't be going the match if you can't see the ground from your house lid

I’m not condoning this in any way and if there is a Hell, you’ll definitely be going should you do this, but would you consider shaving your head?

Haha beyond the moral aspects I don't want to give myself the same haircut as sean dyche , so that's a hard pass

You mightn't be an Australian kid but you are an American. I'd have thought with American owners coming in the club might look at this if you can get some momentum behind it. What about contacting someone like Giulia Bould at Radio Merseyside.
