did i imagine this?

[the greenhill massive]

can anyone help? on ticket day (of which i was unsuccessful) i was getting updates whilst waiting for the booking page to re load , i think these were from the official glastonbury site or maybe twitter (of which im not sighned up to) im sure that i was given an alternative booking number to ring : 08712200260 , this would cost 10p a minute. well i did ring this and was put on hold and disconnected a lot , when i say a lot £90.00 alot . where did i get this number from? can you help ?

its a seetickets 24hr booking line

Edit - you could always use it to book for this since you have been unlucky on glasto tickets http://www.tdpromo.com/images/best-british-2010-poster.pdf I think I might just do that

oh yes and that was just the mobile

[goldfishboy]

also is it just me or does the 0151 number just play a recording of an engaged tone 24/7? i tried it again a couple of days later and got the same...

And this is the reason I use the net on T Day. Despite all its annoyances.

I've only tried to ring up See once before when I had to cancel my G ticket for this year, it took 2 attempts just mid week, well after lunch, both times being put on hold for well over 20 mins...bloody annoying. Gave up the first time.

You were well off the mark if you were ringing a Liverpool number as opposed to a Nottingham number

Sorry, I know it is obviously a ridiculous amount to get charged and I do feel for you (especially not getting a ticket) but what did see do wrong? they gave your daughter a legitimate booking number?

[eFestivals]

I think the fact the very few people managed to get through via their phonelines and some of those who got through still didn't get tickets as the agent the other end then had to try to establish an Internet session just like any other punter would question somewhat the legitimacy of that system.

That's not correct - the See operators have a different but similar system, not the same system.

I suspect their delays in keying on orders was the result of the back-end databases being overloaded.

spoke to offcom, who said it was my mobile providers fault {t.mobile} rang them, charges all taken off - result ...but still no ticket

[Paul ™]

How is it their fault? you dialled the number, incurring the charges

Fair play on getting them wiped though

[the greenhill massive]

im not sure, i was being charged for just getting the engaged signal, any way im very greatful and im sterring clear of the phone in future
