Everton release statement on season ticket refunds and renewals

Everton have confirmed how fans can claim refunds on season tickets as the Premier League prepares to return behind closed doors.

Should the campaign restart then the Blues' final five home games of the season is increasingly likely to be without spectators.

And tonight Everton have confirmed the options available to season ticket holders and those who had bought tickets for the matches.

In a statement, the Blues said: "Everton has confirmed all fans with tickets for the Club’s remaining five home Premier League fixtures of the 2019/20 season will be able to claim a refund due to the increasing expectation that - should the remaining games be played - they will take place behind closed doors. 

"Season Ticket Members will be entitled to a credit or refund on a pro-rata basis for the five games and will also be given the option to forgo part or all of their balance in order for the Club to donate that amount in full over to Everton in the Community.

"The option for a portion - or all - of the available refund to be made available to Everton in the Community was introduced as a result of requests from fan groups and individual supporters who have been keen to show their appreciation for the Club’s charity."

The Blues have also extended the deadline for season ticket renewals.

In March, Everton announced they had extended it to May 28 but it has now been pushed back further until a date that will be announced in the coming days.

Everton's statement added: "Match ticket purchasers for fixtures that may be affected will receive a refund in full. Fans who have purchased tickets via Club partner, StubHub, will not need to do anything, refunds will be processed automatically.

"In this eventuality, any Season Ticket Members who have sold their seat via the ticket resale platform and have already received payment will be contacted by StubHub directly to provide guidance on how to return this money.

"Hospitality Members will be contacted by a member of the Hospitality Team, to advise of the process and options available to them.

"Any Season Ticket Members with questions relating to Season Tickets should contact our Fan Centre team on fan.centre@evertonfc.com."
