Registration Expired!

When did you last check it?

Some registrations will expire if they are over a couple years old and you haven't either checked the box to allow it to be used going forward or it's one from 3-4 years ago that expired naturally.

Oh dear.

Unfortunately having been going a long time isn't really a valid reason for being indignant because the changes have been very well publicised and reminder emails have gone out. Everyone is in the same boat, it couldn't be fairer.

I do feel for you though, hope you get it sorted.

Similar boat to Donshakey on this one - reading all the blurb now, I think I must have registered pre-2007 and had no idea my registration was going to expire. The reminder email stated "If you have registered to buy tickets to the Festival before, you may well still be registered (you now only need to do it once)." - yes it also advised to check it, but when your registration has worked for 5+ years, would that statement really lead you to believe it wouldn't work this year?

I wouldn't go so far as to call it unfair, but would it have been so hard to put on the email that registrations expire periodically? Or even email the people whose registrations HAD expired?

I think there may yet be a few more people caught out on the day - good luck everyone.

In the same boat - cant blame anyone but myself as the info is all there, just didnt realise that registrations expired. You dont have to reregister for forums, facebook etc so not sure why glasto is different. At least i realised now and not after spending 3 hours on the website tomorrow, i suspect others have that anguish to come.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
