the between rule is checking number of characters, not numeric value

There's probably something else at play here, like e.g. the value of
no_of_tickets not actually being in the data that's being validated and
therefore !notEmpty - I'd suggest sticking debug($something) in cake
somewhere. e.g. in function numeric, in Validation, or in Model's validate
logic.
