I think it has a slightly higher success chance. But I think if either of us (Charm and I) went for coach it wouldn't have a direct effect as it is only 2s for that? No it’s 4 s I’m sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this but apparently not. I also could swear previous years it was only 4 for coach in the October sale rather than 6 like it was this year but someone said that was wrong, too. So it looks like it may be 4 and 4 in coach and general. Edited October 9, 2019 by DareToDibble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloom92 Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 Three of my colleagues got tickets this year at work. They said they got through instantly. We work in a busy London hospital. I plan to try at work for the resale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charm Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 My daughter told me some of her friends parents were trying for the first time, this stunned me as none of them seemed the type, the 50th really has got people going, my dentist was even trying.

Will999 Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 Been in the position of trying in the resale before, missed out last year, but luckily got them in general this year. I know how it feels like to be in this position, so I’m more than happy to help anyone out in the resale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil1234 Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 Hi All I do a lot of lurking rather than commenting on here I know! I have learnt a lot from yourselves so thanks for that! But I've seen a lot of mentions of secret sales before. How do they work? do you get a tip off and the seetickets Glastonbury page randomly becomes active again with tickets available? My success rate at trying to get tickets every year is very low so need all the help I can get! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
