Seems they likely changed it for performance issues? Yes the Glastonbury Festivals logo graphic disappeared from the holding page on Thursday evening, but now it looks like the wilderness one has changed *again*, to just this: Compared to the normal holding page, which is this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, tried all that - I appear to be blocked by See Tickets! I can't load any page from their site, but everything else is fine. On Chrome I get "www.seetickets.com didn’t send any data. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" And on Firefox: "The connection was reset The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." 4G is fine so I can just use that if needs be. I've already got my ticket and am trying for mates. I have been playing around a fair bit with refreshing, hitting the limit a few times - I'd suggest people not to do much refreshing on the tickets page from now on!

D-Low Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Been avoiding going on as well just in case, thought I was the only one ?

Deaf Nobby Burton Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Of the myriad of different devices and connections I had, I only got the holding page on two, and of those two only one was instantly refreshing. I didn’t get a booking page so wasn’t successful, but my most ‘successful’ connection was via an EE wireless 4G router... EE provide the charging tents at Glastonbury... make of that what you will.

The Other Steve Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 I had 3 devices (hotel Wi-Fi, 4G & work VPN going through hotel Wi-Fi) all using Chrome. Work VPN was useless. Very rarely got to holding page however other two devices were on the holding page constantly and refreshing fine, Managed to get through on the WiFi and no joy on 4G.

SighMo Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 I learn't that I need to take a deep breath, give my head a shake and then continue to input my card details. Firstly I missed a number out and then I found I had totally forgot to enter the expiry date. Only found out this once the card had been rejected and I carefully put the details in from my wife's 'emergency' holiday credit card which she'd left me in the event of an emergency before she went out. I was honestly shaking like a leaf and had less than a minute left on the countdown when it went through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deaf Nobby Burton Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) On reflection I’ve learnt something that I could’ve done differently but it didn’t occur to me in the heat of the moment. I had two friends come over who are normally next to useless in their own homes, one of them was quite useful yesterday but the other had a couple of devices but just basically fannied around and didn’t really do anything, they even went on twitter and genuinely fell for the joke tweets saying there were technical issues and the sale wouldn’t start until 10am, I mean they genuinely thought they were true! When three of my four laptops went down I just concentrated on the one working laptop that had a holding page and just refreshed that diligently for 36 minutes with no joy. With benefit of hindsight I should’ve got the mate who was next to useless to take over rerfreshing this laptop and I could’ve tried to get the others working on different browsers etc. It still may not have made a blind but if difference but it’s annoyed me since. When you’re in the zone you’re in the zone though and I just assumed I’d eventually get through as I always have from that position in the past.
