  1. Don’t suppose anyone has a code for Pre-sale tickets going spare?
  2. Yeah so I just kept that page open and opened up a few fresh tabs to re-start the process again. It took about 10 minutes for the money to show pending in my account and for the emails to come through, but I’m sure that’s usually the time frame anyway? Not sure that leaving the tab open made much difference to be fair, I think the moment the HSBC app seen my confirm the transaction the tickets were ours.
  3. Yeah had no issues on Thursday and today with authorising the transaction. Today when I returned to Seetickets the payment countdown expired but thankfully 15 minutes later the emails came through and the payment was showing as pending in the account!
  4. 24/24 - Absolute roller coaster! First 6, got through to payment, approved on app, then returned to hopelessly watch the timer count down to 0 before saying there was an error. 5 minutes later, money pending in bank and email confirmations sent out! Last 12 all bought after 10:25, when it had supposedly sold out! Absolultely ecstatic right now!
  5. I had to approve mine through either the app or a one-time passcode for HSBC. I opted for the app but then realised I hadn’t actually used it for so long so wasn’t sure if I needed some long-forgotten password. Thankfully face-id did the job and all went well.
  6. 6 from Birmingham after seeing “no more tickets available” for about 5 minutes. Kept going back and forth until the payment page came up. I’ve had the email confirmation and the payment come out… that’s it isn’t it? I can finally rest?
  7. So as long as the cardholder address matches the address of the card being used it’s fine, regardless of whether they’re in the group trying to buy tickets?
  8. Hopefully there ends up being a few options to see him. Im sure everytime he tours though its only these standalone gigs and they usually clash with something else i have booked!
  9. Cant see much correspondance on the announcement just yet, but there doesnt seem to be anything on Jamoiroquai being an exclusive?
  10. Has there been anything to indicate whether or not PS Madrid is going to be a permanent fixture, or just a one off? Regardless of which one it is, is there a chance that Primavera may throw more money at the lineups than previous years so that it's a success (sell out)?
  11. I’m sure that I tried this last year with 2 different browsers, both with auto refresh, one going at a rate quicker than 1 a second, the other less. Only the browser that triggered the 1 second barrier brought up the dreaded “you are held” page, the other was still continuing to refresh and remaining on the extras page… This was all done prior to the sale by the way, so not sure if that would make any difference?
  12. I can never seem to find a definitive answer on this, but is it 60 times per minute, per; browser? Per device? Per Wi-Fi connection? Per household Wi-Fi? Apologies for the lack of technical terminology
  13. Thanks for this! Over the moon I can catch all of Pip Blom and still a good chunk of Metronomy. Just noticed though this still has Katy J Pearson down as the Friday? Assuming it’s a like for like swap on the set times with Mdou Moctar. Also an hour slot for “special guests” on the Sunday? Wonder who that could be…
  14. Last few years a few of our group has arrived 10am as the gates have opened and have usually got a pretty decent spot. First year i think we got there at 7pm and we had one of the fields at the back. Only a small festival though so not the end of the world! We tend to try and camp as close to the main arena only because it means less of a walk to pop back the tent to re-stock!
  15. Ill be there! Been the last 4( i think ?) and always a highlight of the summer. Agree with you on the headliners, nothing really jumped out at me when the lineup was dropped, but the music only really plays a small part of the festival. The stages and the site is just incredible, can spend all day bouncing from stage to stage and have a quick rest around the lake when you feel like it. Benefit of having no real standout names is that you can just take each day as it comes with the music, have a gander round the stages and choose to stay at the one you're feeling the most!
  16. Does anybody know what time the car park is open till Monday night for those working / volunteering?
  17. Fantastic!. Can’t beat the feeling of preparing for a festival you’ve never been too before - so many questions!!!
  18. Anyone at the festival today and able to kindly share the set times from the program? One more shift at work and then I’m heading up early tomorrow!
  19. Nice one for the info. Had tickets a few times but covid and a few stag dos have got in the way! Like the look of the toil trees stage, can see myself there quiet a bit! Think if you go through the artists on the website it tells you, but no actual day split style poster has been released. Friday - Chic, Saturday - Hot Chip and Sunday - The Wailers
  20. Really looking forward to this now, first time going so not really sure what to expect! Only got the 3 day ticket so aiming to get there for 9ish Friday morning. Is there a site map available anywhere? Cant seem to find one anywhere... How big is the site? If by the time all the prime camping spots are taken are we likely to have a long walk back to tent?
  21. Tickets bought! Even through all the issues of W1 this year we still had a brilliant time. Not sure how much of that was to do with Barcelona instead of the festival but who cares. So 195 euros now but then it’ll be 325 once the full final lineup is out? Surely there’s going to have to be some huge names to justify people paying such a jump in price?
  22. 2012. The same tour they played a secret set at Reading Festival…. (The Reading set wasn’t part of the 4 consecutive days, but still)
  23. Ignore my post. Somehow managed to click quote and reply whilst scrolling….
