Yesterday I didn't even have anyone to go with, and was starting to think I'd have to miss out until 2019. Fortunately managed to get a crew of 5 together last minute, and got tickets. Single chrome tab, with classic manual refreshing.

Good luck on Sunday - see you in June!

First things first.  Massive hugs for all those who didn't get any joy, and best of luck for Sunday :(

Second, I need a fucking cup of tea after that shit. 

Third, how the hell can waiting for a confirmation email actually be worse than the sale itself?!

Laptops, multiple browsers, Xbox even running on auto refresh.  And what do I get through on?  My bloody phone.  Didn't even have 4G signal, got through on H.  go figure.

I was getting the countdown, just kept with the F5 though and got through in the end. Definitely wouldn't bother with the auto-refresh apps - was taking around a second for the F5 refresh and I could easily manage that myself manually

Was it actually counting down in the window?  What browser were you on?

After stressing out a lot, managed to get tickets.  Coming all the way from Mexico for the 3rd time!! 2009, 2013 and now 2017!  wohooo!!

 

By the way, still waiting on that confirmation email but already had the money withdrawn from my account so I guess there'll be no problem

With people reporting refreshinator didn't work because it kept saying the chosen word wasn't valid... and people reporting that there was no countdown timer, my theory is there is no text on the page it's just a picture of txt, the countdown must happen somewhere in the background but you no longer get a visual clue.

My thought too....but some folks seem to suggest they did see a countdown....odd.

Congrats Mash!! :D

Did you auto refresh or manual F5. I didn't get close....

Cheers

Dave

I used the refresh button on my browser :P Just started refreshing a bit before they were due to open and was lucky enough to hit it just as they started selling

I only went on the sale to input details for Sunday so laptop remembers them, but had no count down and through straight away to buy tickets. The ticket page timed out on the buy page with this message:

Page Timeout

You have exceeded the time limit and your reservation has been released. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Return to event page

 

Which suggests to me that if you get your reg numbers in and get to the payment page your tickets are allocated until you pay this time. Which I don't think has been the case in recent years.......

No luck this end, looks like Sunday it is. I feel deflated. I've got coach tickets for the last couple of years...

I felt the same last year, (having got coach tickets the year before then getting as far as the bloody payment page when coach tickets sold out while I was entering my info!) but then I got tickets for the sunday out of the blue from a mate in our group trying......dont feel down and dont give up, not over until its over! and hell even when its over theres resales! if not resales then theres working on site as a last resort just to get in there....pleanty of ways to get to this fest if you have the will!

    • 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.
