Why didn't you renew through your online account? I did it that way and it took about ten seconds total.
Plenty of people had issues with their online system as well.

FYI, sent this to a rep. I got a detailed response, but I don't think I'm renewing.

Where this sort of coherent argument and well-thought out writing go to die.
A well written, fair and rational letter (unlike some we've seen). The long term STH's really got screwed on this one, but I don't know how else they could have done this, logistically. It does make sense, at some point, to charge more for front row seats than for 20th row seats. You can argue it is too soon, but it is inevitable and fair. But I don't know how you allow people in those seats to move to less expensive seats (which someone else has), without doing an annual seat selection process based on tenure, like they did at the opening, where no one is guaranteed their seats from the previous year. What else could they have done (other than keep prices the same)?FYI, sent this to a rep. I got a detailed response, but I don't think I'm renewing.

I understand thats a very common practice in soccer ticket pricing. I know they do it in the Prem.And I suppose the Mets are justified in charging more for tickets against the bigger draws than the scrubs?

The ONLY reason to have season tickets right now for RBNY is if you like your seats. Otherwise, you can always get a seat.Thats actually a very common practice in soccer ticket pricing. I know they do it in the Prem.
You can view it as charging more for the big games, or as discounting the smaller games. The point is, it is common practice and perfectly reasonable.
Right now you can always get tickets. Hopefully, that won't always be the case, and if/when you do want season tix down the road, you'll be in the back of the line. I do like my seats, and like the idea of having the same ones every game. I also like the little STH perks... entry to the Pub, the autograph session, early eindow to buy tickets for other games, etc.The ONLY reason to have season tickets right now for RBNY is if you like your seats. Otherwise, you can always get a seat.
Comparisons with leagues like the Prem don't mean much went you can't even fill half of your stadium on a consistent basis.
That said, it is still a free country (I think) and they can price it any way they want. If that drives customers away, that's their problem, not ours.
If you think it is just the RedBulls, take a look at the way Netflix shot themselves in the foot by splitting their services and raising prices. And Reed Hastings is lauded as one of the smartest around. They had a great thing going, but they tried to get too clever (take note Hans) and wound up with a major black eye.
