We had 10 of us over 2 groups. The other group of us were sorted in 2 mins. 

I got through to the enter reg page about 40 times in the first 10 mins (no joke). Each time I then pressed proceed, I went back to the holding page. 10 mins in, I got a text through to say a mate booked ours. 

I had promised someone at work Id try for them after us. Again I kept being kicked out after entering reg details. 2 mins before they sold out, I got her group. They had not a sniff of even the holding page. (All 5 of them)

My mate who got through for us, got through another 4 times for his sister and random groups of his facebook friends.

I had another page loaded to come on here as it was sold out.

I think if you were able to get in, you could constantly do it. We got a lot of tickets between 3 of us. The others in our groups saw nothing at all at any point.

Just beyond gutted, I had the payment screen and it just wouldn't go through, then it said one of our group already had a ticket... but here is the thing, he hasn't, nobody had got him one, why would that happen?

 

There does seem to have been some problems matching up reg numbers. I've seen posts saying reg numbers incorrect, but apparently they were 100% accurate.

Is it possible they gave you the wrong registration number?

yep one of my mates got in 3 times with relative ease after the first time. It was a very hectic and panic ridden 15/20 minutes to start, id still be pressing f5 now with no joy if it wasnt for others

Won't be entirely relaxed until confirmation email comes through as someone else (who I have never met) got ours. Spirit of Glastonbury alive and well but.... 

Any ideas how long they take?

Usually within the hour. Go to seetickets customer service and check your reg number and it will tell you

Quick question on the confirmation emails - is it just the lead Booker who gets one or does everyone of the 6 receive one?

Prior years: lead booker gets confirmation email.  Everyone else gets 'a balance has been booked against your number' type email also, but later.

You need order reference number to use that I think - not registration number. As someone else booked for us we dont have it!

Feeling pretty good with my t-day performance this year - after getting right in for my ticket managed to get through and buy twice this year, including for fellow efester @LondonTom. Cya there everyone!

<3


Was awful for me getting through but managed after a bit to pay the Glasto love forward!!

 

More convinced on the randomness/connection not mattering a fuck than ever before!

 

Can't wait for next year and I shall be making my return to efests, know you've all missed me ;)

Last year as lead booker confirmation email came within the hour. Individual emails for each registration came at 15.15

      Tbf that happened to me in 2022 so not a one off. 40 euros to drive down 3 streets. I'd have done a runner but the reason for getting the taxi in the first place is cos I couldn't walk no more.

      I was fully prepared (waterproof jacket, extra pair of socks, foldable umbrella), but after four hours in the rain (from Geese through Oklou to Florence Road), it was just too much. Already at the hotel, let's hope tomorrow's better.

      It’s rare that I watch question time, but I almost felt sorry for Kenyon, he seemed like a guy just brought off the street which effectively is what he was, made worse by the fact Burnham and the Tory guy were very strong debaters. I think Burnham was very aware not to go too hard on Kenyon and risk him getting sympathy, in fact he pretty much ignored him.

      Shambles. Transport and comms garbage. Been looking forward to this since last June and have never been to a more disorganised festival in 30+ years.  Why we were told the whole festival was cancelled for the night if they had put back shows for a few hours?  Pissed off to say the very least and put a huge downer on the rest of the weekend.
