Stave_1974 Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Wow, that was brutal. Managed to get one East Family Pitch though, so all is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveTLizard Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Does anyone know what the score is if you didn't manage to get a CV ticket, do they sell the refunds at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have fell lucky on someone else's bad luck when they couldn't process the transaction in time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone stay there this year? How was it? Bath & West is ordinarily a good place to stay - but not where I'd choose for Glastonbury, too far away and a shuttle bus journey from Gate A. http://www.ashcombefarmcaravanandcamping.co.uk/ is only a few minutes walk from Gate A, it might be an option for those who missed out this morning. It was our plan B and we would've chosen it over B&W Showground. Last year was exceptional, I'd be amazed if we had a repeat experience this year. Getting on/off-site is relatively painless, usually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briddj Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Christ that was nothing like last time. Both me and a mate both got in at 12 for an Octopad each that time - hold holding screen etc Oh and yeah as someone above said, purchase protection is a swizz and a complete money-making sham.

nikkic Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Was there an option to add car park ticket with the WV tents? Didn't see it! Or can I buy that when we pay the balance on tickets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hike to the east side so good walking boots essential but definitely worth doing if camping's not an option. Also no queue to get out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've meant a nice surprise for someone several mins after West had appeared to be sold out. To think I go through this for other people, to then camp with the showerless masses.

spcdust Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Assume on the Worthy View booking when it asked "Group Name" that if two separate bookings made (1 x 1 Tent / 2 x 1 Tent) using different registrations that they then try and group the two bookings together based on a shared group name?

spcdust Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 If you didn't get WV Parking permits at the time you can just go back into the bookings page now and purchase them separately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbrinxy Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I give up, I'm so depressed. I'm going to go have a shower and think about my showerless future.

richcressey Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Got into the horrible situation of now having paid the deposit on a rental campervan and not been able to get a campervan ticket. got in after 10 mins and it failed. same for other 3 people in my group. can't believe they've sold out that quickly. hoping for resales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
