Insurance

i payed up for my ticket the other day but the girl i spoke to messed up and insurance wasn't added.

i've payed for a few of mates and they have taken the insurance, but I'm wondering what exactly is covered?

if i was to pull out for any reason would i get a refund?

if i was ill, would i have to get a doctors cert to prove it? then would i get my dosh bk?

if my mates kids were ill, would they be covered then?

sorry for all the jibbering but i just want to know, i dont wanna take it out then find out it's no good,

cheers

From the lack of responses to your post, I am obviously not the only one who has no idea what you are talking about (although to be fair, I didnt book my own ticket this year - for the first time ever)....

Here you go .....

Taken from http://]Can I get a refund for my ticket after May 8th?

  • No. Tickets are non-refundable after the deadline of May 8th. However, if you bought insurance for your ticket and your reason for not being able to come is covered by the insurance policy you may be able to claim on your insurance.

http://' target="_blank">Can I insure my ticket?

  • Yes. Should you be concerned you will be unable to attend the Festival due to any unforeseen circumstances, you may wish to consider insuring your ticket. Cancellation insurance will be available to purchase for £3.90 per ticket when booking tickets, either online or when you call the SeeTickets booking line; or you may already be covered by your own personal insurance.

When I bought them the other day, I had to chuckle, I did it over the phone due to their lack of having taken my email address when I bought the deposit tickets back in Oct over the phone, and the woman I was talking to wasn't sure what was covered with the insurance either, she said they didn't have that info yet :(

I didn't bother, I'd have to be on deaths door not to be there anyway :rolleyes:

i think insurance is a good idea... im sure loads of people end up not going due to work refusing to give them the time off OR money issues, e.t.c

my new holiday year didnt start till this january but i paid my deposit in oct... the early oct thing could effect a lot of people when they get round to actually booking the time off.

Most people dont realise you have until well into May to get a refund... Your insuring yourself for like a month...

Seems pretty pointless to me...

    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
