I got through in last few minutes and says tickets been purchased for all 6 in group. No email and no confirmation screen but money pending on my bank card. Are we safe? Still bricking it Same here. No confirmation of booking - timed out - then said registration details had been used. Just checked seetickets order tracker and apparently the transaction went through! Gone from total despair to total elation. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person who got our tickets normally doesn't get a sniff. We got through multiple times to Add Reg and Buy, but never managed to get the payment screen. Last year, once you'd got onto the Buy page, the transaction was smooth. Something's changed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kashkin Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 3 minutes ago, phillyfaddle said: Most probably, yes. Other people have had the same issue. On their website it says confirmation emails can take up to 4 hours. I hope you're right! But other people seem to already have a transaction showing on their account, which my friend doesn't. It would be pretty unfair though if we didn't have them, because our registration numbers were not usable much later in the sale, so it would effectively mean our registrations were blocked, by See's crashing system and through no fault of our own, for the whole sale.

spcdust Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 How ever much we theorise it's all down to luck - It's brutal but with the huge demand for tickets all hitting the servers at 9.00am it's never going to be smooth ride. Usually I secure the tickets for our group but this year didn't get past the holding page using a couple of browsers on my home computer and remoting into the works computer. However, the other person in our group got in on her laptop at their house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone-Bill Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 What is the rationale behind not being able to transfer tickets? Half of our people didn't get through, but there's some who would be willing to give their ticket to people who it means a bit more to. Doesn't make sense to me why they wouldn't allow that.

srb Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 We got 9/15 through various channels. One postcode wouldn't work for some reason. Another in group got to booking page but could go ni further. Brutal. I'm in, but doesn't feel right with others missing out today.

MrZigster Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Gutted is an understatement. Wasn't prepared to feel this low. I don't think I was calm enough. Got up late (08:50) and was angry and anxious and in a bit of a tizz. Wrong vibes for Glasto. Got straight to holding page on Opera and Chrome. Then Opera kicked me off after about five minutes and never let me back. Chrome kicked me off at about the same time but I did get back to the holding page now and then (most often not). Speaking of Holding Page are we all meaning the same thing here? There were two yesterday and I only saw the one you got previously if you mashed F5 too much. Can't imagine how those who got past this stage, only to get kicked out must feel. That really is not on and shouldn't happen. Other ticket sales manage to manage this type of thing so why not this? Ho Hum. Here's hoping Shelter get in touch again, though I think I'm getting a bit old for working it. It can be a real slog. I'll have to insist they let me camp by the loos.

nowyouregideon Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) Phone on o2 4G eventually got to the queue but nowhere else. A Windows running Laptop connected to the WiFi got nowhere other than page can't be reached. 8/9 year old iMac got straight onto the grey queue page with Safari. It does every year. Chrome eventually did and Firefox got absolutely nowhere. I am not a tech guy, I have basic knowledge by my Dad knows his stuff. He networked up his whole house. Every room has two ethernet ports so I'm never messing about with wireless. There are two routers for god knows why and whatever this absolute monstrosity is. I don't even live at home anymore, I just have been successful here in the past so I lugged my PC back from London just to plug it in in my old bedroom. Fully have faith in the mass of wires and flashing lights my Dad is always tinkering with. Edited October 7, 2018 by mf_2005 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robillustrates Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 We got through after about 3 minutes, input all the information, and the payment details, clicked to purchase the tickets and then it crashed, no clue or sign if that worked or not and between 8 of us no one got through again before it sold out.

carrie2 Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Can someone who is a helluva lot more savvy than me tell me why you have to click through THREE SEPARATE PAGES in the ticket buying process and not just one or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubenz Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Confirmation emailed received. Was a tense one, got to the stage of entering all the details and then accidently closed the tab down! By some sort of miracle another appeared straight away on another browser which worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SloopJohnB Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Bittersweet for me.....I have tickets but the second group didn’t.....I’m genuinely gutted! is it me or does it seem like there are more unsuccessful on here than in previous year a ☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that, guys. Not the case at all, you've picked me up wrong. In the interest of keeping couples together, we had to move groups around. As a result, a guy who absolutely lives Glasto all year round has missed out, while a couple of people (who obviously still really want to go) have tickets. Those people would be willing to give theirs up to that guy. It was just luck that his group didn't get through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
