I quoted his tweet suggesting he handed them back and he blocked me. Hopefully his entry is voided and another lucky, more appreciative person gets hold of them! It's definitely a scam. I emailed both of the promoters who had competitions finish in last few days to let them know. I do not like people who do that. He wouldn't give me any info and blocked me. Definitely not the Glastonbury spirit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodluck X would be over the moon to see you get to Glastonbury! Right back at you! I am still hoping to get on the bin painting team if I don't win, been on the reserve list since October. It is actually my top choice as I would be there 2 weeks before, and would be giving something back to the place I love so much. Please get me to Glastonbury someone!

Really not in the Glastonbury spirit! I know. I got conned last year. I treated my boyfriend and I to ZooLoo passes but they had all sold out so I bought them off a girl either on here or Twitter I don't remember which. She was so lovely and when I went to go into ZooLoo it turned out she had actually won them and flogged them on. I felt so done in it was so unfair! I do hope if anyone wins tickets who has already bought them makes sure to not accept the prize so someone else can go. I think some people don't quite grasp that ALL competitions for Glastonbury tickets are completely non-transferable.

cb4747 Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 after doing some twittering I've seen this It says pick up your paper next Thursday. Anyone in Shepton Mallet wanna help a girl out?

I've seen an identical one on Twitter for the Bath Chronicle too, just the writing on the red side is different. I'm tempted to pop there too or at least ask if they'll deliver to Wales Edited May 19, 2016 by Wrex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb4747 Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I feel like I want a thread on ALL the festival competitions out there, not just Glastonbury ones but can't be bothered with the effort of posting in each particular festival thread. Can anyone advise or suggest anything? There's so many comps out there and would be fab for some eFestivallers to win some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
