Keithy Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Were there secret resales in 2016? I remember trying for someone that year and don't recall the alerts happening. Am sure the last secret resale was 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive commiserations to everyone who missed out - we've been there more than once, its horrible. Same very lucky only needed one for a friend and got it after it sold out / allocated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 It's quite likely that whoever is allocated social media duties won't know about any secret resales anyway. It'll be above their pay-grade, and probably decided very close to when they're actually put on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, if they have a policy of replying to every question, it causes them a lot more misery if they say "Yes there will be" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The registration numbers will be sufficient, they can check if tickets have been allocated to them. Did you get a screenshot of the payment confirmation by any chance?

Ah yeah, that sounds right. 2014 and 2015 there were quite a few and then it became rare/non existent after that. Fingers crossed there's one this year for people.

billum Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 21 minutes ago, Chris-TT said: ... There also appears to be little to no benefit at being tech-savvy these days. During the initial sale, my mother-in-law got through twice straight away on her phone. This time we used VPN’s all over the world, multiple wifi and 4G connections, and were trying various tricks, but nothing worked. Heh, seems to be true - so my vision of the Fest being entirely populated by computer geeks by 2025 looks like it won't come true after all!

Did you get a screenshot of the payment confirmation by any chance? The issue is the page died after the submitted the card details. So whilst the link showed Glastonbury.seetickets.com/purchase/complete the confirmation page didn’t actually load. So the screenshot is effectively of a blank page with that link at the top.

Holding out hope for the secret resales... Does anyone have any tips or know a potential date based on when they have been previously? There is no way of knowing when or even if a secret resale will go live I’m afraid. The best thing you can do is have a pagechecker ie. checkpage.co.uk running to notify you of any changes to the ticket page then get at it. Warning: it’s hugely stressful! Even more so than ticket day if I’m honest... There is always numerous changes to the page in the run up to the festival which mean nothing and get your hopes up only to crush them again.☹️ In 2017 there was no secret resale at all and the best guess is that any cancelled/failed tickets were just absorbed into the staff tickets.
