Pipine Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Seems like a lot of crashing out on the payment page or reg page.. more than normal. They need to sort that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girlfriend had no space in postcode and I had a space in mine, but I just used the one with the space...and it sold out in the meantime This is my issue.... last year when you got to booking page it held your tickets for x amount of minutes to put details in. This year they just let more people on than they had tickets. I clicked confirm to pay and boom sold out... I mean wtf? Seriously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 nothing in my bank about it and no confirmation email. I cannot fathom how it hasn't worked for me since I got to the very end and clicked confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mazola Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Got past the registrations page at 9.31, but instead of payment page got a page saying no tickets available. kept pressing back and forward for a couple of minutes then the payment page came up! Had a feeling it might go through if I kept trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob.a Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I got here at around 9.25 but it wouldn't let me proceed. When clicked on i got "Deposit tickets are currently unavailable". I assume there were already more people at payment stage than tickets available (that is a guess though). I kept going back and trying again but got nothing.

dondo Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 We had 3 laptops, 1 phone, 1 ipad and only my laptop got to the enter reg details page and then just couldn't get to payment page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) So I'm not sure how I haven't got my tickets really. Starting to feel quite pissed off about it. Edited October 6, 2019 by WS_Jack_III Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe folk lost their tickets due to time out so some became available ? So lucky this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBoz Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Didn’t even get the holding my laptop on Thursday or today, whereas my phone on 4g got the booking page both times and managed to complete the booking this morning after getting sold out halfway through on Thursday. Anyone have more success on phones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodgollyit'sdolly Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I got 12 tickets in total, which was part of the 18 of 36 in our group. Nice one who ever mentioned incognito the other day, I had that and a safari open and was refreshing between both that and google chrome incognito and then just switched to constant refresh of GC, got two groups of tickets and was thru for a third before it sold out! Buzzing that's 10 years in a row for me now, commiserations to those who have missed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As many have and will say. There were 2.4 million registrations this year. I doubt that all of those tried for tickets. You would be lowering your % even more and then it would fuck up any groups going, most people would end up going solo due to the nature of luck. Would change the atmosphere of the festival completely. It's already luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozanne Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 The only way they can make the system better is by scrapping the deposit scheme and changing the time to something like 4am on a Monday morning. That way you'd reward diehards a little bit better in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkete Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 38 minutes ago, JHad said: I guess this is as good a place to vent as any! That's the 45th sale (coach, resales etc) that I've followed advice for down to the letter over the years and never got close to getting a ticket. Yet, some people get them every year. Just to shatter that illusion, that's been true for me since 85 - for the last few decades via sales, resales or secret resales. However I didn't even get past the queue page on either sale this week and nor did any of about 10 people I know trying - indeed many of them didn't even get to the queue just got page errors.

I tried incognito on both Thursday and today with no joy, just in case anyone thinks it's a panacea for future sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
