Cheers for this thread! I've applied for Bestival, will enjoy my Glastonbury as a punter again - not ready to share it just yet

£195? i know it gets refunded but ouch!

another company i know charges just £25 per fest. not glastonbury but most of the big uns and lots of small too.

Bollocks. Finally got through at work and all places gone. Damn work internet restrictions.

"Please note 2011 applications have been temporarily suspended due to a server related issues"

Bugger, has this affected anyone mid-application? Girlfriend's trying to get her application in now...

I managed to get everything entered & done but I haven't received a confirmation email. I can't check my hotmail at work & my BlackBerry is buggered. I just a page saying "Success: AUTHORISED"

Am I good to go? Or does that just mean my card details have been taken?

My MD at work immediately got an email asking for him to send off a reference to Oxfam so he knows I've not been working!

I applied, after the last screen it said something was wrong but then i got the 2 emails confirming everything, and i looked at my bank online and the money has been taken so... looks like it's worked.

So excited now!

[Pinhead]

Should be fine as long as you got the two emails - one confirming position; one confirming payment.

[Bisque]

My money hasn't come out but it normally takes NatWest three or more days to ever do anything/show up on my online banking. Is it possible to check any other way other than going into my email account (my hotmail is blocked).

[Pinhead]

Can't think of one. Access Hotmail over mobile network via mobile browser (if compatible). Oxfam site down now . . .

If your colour blind you won't be allowed to check tickets etc

something to do with spotting fakes

Can someone help me? Want to work at Latitude and Bestival (I'll do Glasto with my ticket!)

Completed my application at 12.20 today only to be told there were no places for all 13 festivals and to select the waiting list option so I did. I paid the deposit, selected the training course and received both emails (with no festivals listed).

Now they are saying applications re-open tomorrow at 11am and there are exactly 100 places available for each festival (which I think is an error as some festivals had less than 100 places to begin with when I looked before the applications opened this morning!)

have a look here:

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2211928194

basically, look at the confirmation email (not the payment one) and it should list all the festivals youve signed up to. If they are there (and u got the payment one too) then your in if theyre not listed you might have to give them a call or try again tommoro.

There was an error in the servers, and also some people ended up paying even though they were only put on the waiting list (if they were a bit late)

who like me was lucky enough to get on the stewarding,i thought up until now i wouldnt be going and even got upset reading the glasto threads.now i can get just a little bit excited,even if it means i got to work for it,I WILL BE THERE

[Paadzer]

No Latitude for me (and no Glasto for many others) due to Oxfam not announcing when the applications would be open, I was ready at 9am yesterday before I started work but the website crashed and I could not get to a computer between 11.30 - 12.15 and when I did it was to late.

I feel sad that equal opportunities for applications were ignored :'-( My friend who was going to go with me will now have to cancel or go on her own

By the way if anyone missed out on Glastonbury try http://www.greenstewards.com/index.cfm?event=general.events

I worked with them at Secret Garden Party last year and it was great, shame they don't do Latitude
