Getting Glasto tickets abroad

[mb'satglasto]

Hello! First post, hope you're all good. Lurked around here too long but I finally have a legit question I can't find an answer to.

Now I like everyone else in the world have had my ups and downs with glasto tickets, generally consider myself pretty good at it although last October was a miserable failure. Managed in the resale though!

Ok, so main question, we always hear about 'proxys' and overloaded certain servers getting people past nowhere but a sad face page or no connection found, but with me being on a jolly in Holland next Sunday, I'm wondering whether there is any truth to it being easier to get tickets abroad.

My sister lives in Holland so I've got internet access, and as it's weirdly hooked up to her employer's Irish server, apparently it's an absolute beast.

But will this actually get me any further any quicker? As usual, I've got a fair few people counting on me as my friends haven't got anywhere with it in the past.

Anyone really know? also, if I try this overseas line and get through, can I pay on my english credit card or will they tell me to jog on and get in the English line?!

Cheers in advance, and all the best on Sunday.

Only thing I can say is that I live in The Netherlands and managed to get tickets twice in a row over the last 2 years. So it may be worth giving your sister a call...

I guess that your English credit card shouldn't be a problem.

Thats what I like to hear mate! Won't need to call her as I'll be over there. Did you get them over the phone or online?

Firstly Howdy, secondly no. Good luck!

Both times online.
