Ommadawn Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Just check the registered details against the electoral roll. Very time consuming I know but at least it would guarantee tickets going to genuine locals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levitz Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 They don’t reopen the registration until November though so surely can’t be abused as people will have postcode on their existing registrations...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know several people personally who have second registrations against addresses within the catchment to use a backup if they fail in main sale.

pilton digger Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 the more people talk about it, the more people will take the piss and try and abuse the local ticket system. There was a local last time who was initially refused tickets, various chancers had registered at his address without his knowledge. Can we please stop talking about it. Locals know where to get the information, people casually asking probably aren't local and are depriving someone who is genuinely local. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorp Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Many tickets are sold to the wrong sort of people - the many thousands who leave their tents behind. A £500 or £1000 bond/deposit per tent, refundable when it's scanned on the way out, would sort that out, lol. Probably have to be £1000 to make it work, because with several people in some tents, they'd probably be OK with losing e.g. £100 each. As for the mega amounts of rubbish left behind in the camping and other areas - what to do!? Edited October 12, 2018 by scorp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think assuming everyone who goes has £1000 spare to throw down as a deposit is dangerously pushing the festival into being a painfully middle class, privileged culture that people attack it for??

pilton digger Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 it is. As is keeping this thread alive. Every year people innocently raise a thread on local tickets when they have not scored, the majority (not accusing you of anything by the way) are not local and are arseholes who think they have the right to abuse local sales. This is why genuine locals don't get tickets, the same happens for Pilton Party although that takes a bit more effort. People registering at someone elses address usually get found out and their registrations cancelled. Electoral registers are a good resource. Can we please drop this thread before more Londoners volunteer to help when it is feck all to do with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just helping him and his local friends get tix, I’m not local so wouldn’t qualify anyway? This is a local thread for local people. Every year 65% of the local tickets are bought by a well organised group of Somersetites and then ceremoniously burnt on a fire whilst drinking cider and laughing that they'll never get into the hands of people from that London. Fact, probably. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
