Just been on the club website:
4. Changes to Dates, Refunds & Exchanges
4.1. No guarantees can be given by the Club that a Match will take place at a particular time or on a particular date. The Club reserves the right to reschedule any Match without notice and without any liability whatsoever. Your Stilecard will enable you to attend the re-arranged Match.
4.2. The Club will have no further liability whatsoever, including (but not limited to) any direct or consequential loss or damage, loss of enjoyment or travel/accommodation costs.
4.3. All Stilecards are sold on a non-refundable basis.
Read more at http://www.wba.co.uk/tickets/stilecard/index.aspx#wyAqOuzcBV1fGhm3.99

Isn't there a consumer law in Britain of a cooling off period of 14 days when purchasing any product allowing for a full refund within that period after purchase? If that is so then the club could be in breach of regulations but I am no expert on this so will leave it to others to found out if there is any breach.

I'm sorry, but if you bought a season ticket before we made an appointment then that's your own fault really.

Bought my ST before the deadline & have absolutely 100% no qualms or desire to get my money back, I will be sitting in the same seat as I have for as many years as I can remember & the fact that we employ this coach or buy that player makes no difference, sure I am underwhelmed (seems to be the buzz word this week) but I support my club regardless of what happens behind the scenes, I can't, nor do I want to try to affect things beyond my control.

For those seeking their money back I hope you get what you want but before you do make that phone call/email please try to remember who we are, who you are, we are football fans of the greatest team the world has ever seen, I'm not a happy clapper but I love the club unreservedly, that means through thick & thin (& trust me I've seen some thin).

Nobody CONNED me into renewing my ST, I'm more of a shepherd then a sheep, I don't follow the crowd but Jeremy Peace is the custodian of West Bromwich Albion & for that reason I will back his decision to appoint Irvine, I genuinely believe that, as a business man he is not going to wilfully damage the club as it will surely impact on any future sale (makes no sense).

Hopefully once the dust has settled & we sign a few new players, the positivity can return  ;D

I just posted in another thread. I'm sure if you purchased over telephone or Internet distance selling rules apply. So maybe a 14 day cooling off period?

Does anyone know the exact rule?

Good post, I would guess that 99% of the 16000, me included, are underwhelmed, disappointed, whatever, but would not consider seeking a refund even if they could get one.

Just read about distance selling regulations.

This is my interpretation and not legal advise but it appears you have a right to change your mind on a purchase made online or over a telephone within 7 working days if receipt of goods. In my opinion as season ticket cards have not been issued surely there is a strong argument to say this 7 working days has not started yet.

As I say it's just my interpretation of the law and it does hold a chink of light for those people looking to cancel.

I am glad I waited.

Same here, I would have renewed if the signs were looking positive but this has not inspired me to part with my cash

Instead of simply mocking those who are considering a refund, why not try to engage with why they feel so strongly about the situation.

Cant we get a refund under the trades description act.
We are allegedly trading as a premiership club.

Not mocking them, genuinely hoping that they can get their wish. If their view of encouraging performance is to poison the atmosphere at the ground (which is getting worse with expectation) then I am happy for them to not be there. If this makes them "uber" fans I am pleased for them, I hope that they enjoy their Saturday afternoons, I am sure mine will become more pleasurable.

I have been a season ticket holder in the Bassett suite for the last 7 seasons and has cost in access of £18000 . I am so glad someone was looking down on me telling me wait . That man is not having another penny of my hard earned cash , so I hope all you all get refunds and wish you good luck with it. Let's hope there are a few east stand executive boxes empty , that should hit him really hard in his very deep pockets.
