rejected registration

A mate of mine, who despite constant reminders from me, left it to sunday to register and had his photo rejected!! He has now missed the midnight deadline. Has anyone successfully got Glasto to sort out their registration after the deadline??

I guess not, but thought I'd ask anyway!!

Cheers

It gave a whole list of reasons the photo could have been rejected for including "might not be of a person............or the gender does not appear to match the name" which is going to me so much ammunition to take the piss out of him forever!! But doesn't say exactly why.

The picture looks fine to me. The only thing is he took it on his iphone and registered through his phone, so maybe its the wrong format?? But I'm sure there's nothing he can do now though???

Ah, the first of many 'my friend didn't follow the rules because he's a fucking lazy idiot, how can I get around it so he's got the same chance as the people who did get off their arse and follow the rules?' threads.

My brother did the same thing last year. Was rejected because he took the photo on his phone and it was landscape not portrait. Didn't speak to Glasto about it as ultimately it was his fault for not reading the guidelines and leaving insufficient time to resolve it. If they have rejected it unfairly, then you might have a case

Glastonbury has a built in "can you be arsed filter"

If you wait til the last minute, didn't read the rules, and only register then... you can barely be arsed.

I don't want people who can't be arsed at Glastonbury.

Yeah, i'm afraid i dont have alot/any sympathy for your mate, my mates left it last minute, so i made them take 5-6 pics and send them all to me, just to be on the safe side, 5 got rejected of my mates 6 this morning, with only one being good enough.

It pays to be on the ball.

the registration process was the final nail in the coffin for a lot of people. A lot of people who made the festival into what it is now.

It's a necessary evil, nothing more. Seeing some of the stuff posted in this thread is embarrassing.

The registration system is the final nail in the coffin following the previous nails of accepting payment over the internet, accepting payment by card over the phone, accepting payment prior to the festival in cash, accepting payment at the festival in cash and of course the original nail of actually expecting people to pay to enter. As each nail was relentlessly hammered in by the corparate hand wielding the hammer of injustice and elitism the festival has lost it's way more and more.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
