So, SeeTickets have just called me as they are confirming all their coach travel right now and I needed to pay for an extra seat on the coach, from what I can gather they are way behind with processing all this stuff which might explain why the secret resale is so late.  I asked about the tickets that had been returned this year and he acknowledged secret resales in previous years, but didn't know whether there were enough returns to warrant it this time around, he said that its Glastonburys decision how they process the extras that come in from cancellations and he hadn't heard anything about it.

This is what I was expecting to hear, Neil said similar yesterday. I think a resale might not happen until THIS Friday. Then we could pretend @Shiftyp9's mate meant this one instead, and everyone would be happy.

This is quite promising! At least an acknowledgement!

I got a pretty much the same reply

Hello all, I'm a long time lurker. I've gone through every minute of the last 2 weeks with you (just very quietly!). If we do all get tickets and there is a secret resale meet-up that was discussed many pages back, I'll have to replicate my actions and just stand creepingly at the edge of the bar watching you all mingle.

This response from Glasto fills me with hope again. It certainly doesn't rule out a resale. 

"Nothing planned" - they don't know when it will happen

"official competitions are your best chance" - you still have some chance of getting one in a resale 

Good luck everyone, I really hope we all succeed. Keep the faith, we can still do this!!

Please tell us your an insider working at SEE? 

[Beaver89]

For those contacting See with the same question. From my limited understanding talking to people in the business (no links to G before you ask /suggest) the chances are that See are completely in the dark on any excess tickets. The allocations now sit with GF and they will let See know how many tickets they can sell, if there are any left at all, See will then more than likely put them up same day.

We all need to calm down and realise there are people doing their jobs across both organisations and if there are excess they will put them on sale once all other requirements are met and signed off.

If it happens it happens. We might get lucky, we might not. There is no point badgering them any more as you are not going to get a different response from either organisation.

To me it sounds like they will chuck some more back in the pot but it could be alot later than any of us expected. I'm away for the afternoon now but will be on high mobile alert still. Good luck to everyone if it does happen this afternoon, otherwise see you all later.

Fucking hell mate, how long have you been here?! You should know fine well you can't say the words 'it's happening' unless it is actually happening at that moment. I just had a fit because I hadn't got a ping!

so basically, everybody should email the festival to show demand on these few tickets?!

I also got a text this morning saying that. When I questioned further they explained they 'had a hunch'.

I'm only guessing, but I'd guess not today.

As i said yesterday, I got the impression they're not at the point where they're ready to do it, and a post above suggests the same.

[beefykoala]

I've actually managed to regulate my sleep a lot better because of the resales. Waking up at 6am is causing me to be sleepy by 9:30pm, in bed by 10. It's great!
