Good news today for supporters wishing to become Bondholders - as it has been confirmed the waiting list to purchase a West Ham Bond has now been fully cleared.
The Hammers Bond Company, who oversee the sale and redistribution of Bonds have confirmed that, following many years of operation, the waiting list is no more - meaning fans wishing to purchase a Bond for themselves can now bid directly.
The controversial West Ham Bond Scheme, first introduced in the early 1990s, was created to give supporters the opportunity to make a long-term financial commitment to the club in return for guaranteed access to home and away match tickets, and a seat location at the home ground.
As the scheme matured, Bonds have periodically become available as people moved away. That availability has accelerated in recent years due to a significant number of family sales following the passing of some Bondholders and the ill-health of others.
This process has gradually enabled all remaining supporters on the waiting list to be offered the opportunity to purchase a Bond, with recent sales securing fees of £7,000-£10,000 per Bond.
The main benefit for current Bondholders is to be granted priority for the sales of all away tickets, guaranteeing a ticket to any West Ham United match whether home or away, domestically or abroad.
For future Bond sales, transactions will be handled on a "best offer" basis as Bonds come onto the market. The cost of registration is £50 for three whole or part seasons.
Supporters interested in acquiring a bond should contact Bondsales@westhamunited.co.uk for further information.
