I’m on the watts app group ... thought it worth being on there  

[Bovla]

Also some steward roles in there for Glastonbury

[Pipine]

I think I got one, I got a green tick in Payment but then it went to a 404 page.  Nothing showing up in my account yet either Oxfam or bank.

You can only apply for a shop role if you already volunteer in an Oxfam shop (you'll need a reference from the shop manager) or have worked at 2 festival shops in the last 3 years.

So then Oxfam peeps.

How do we sort out alerts now?

The one I had set up was looking for changes in the festival drop down list.

As Glastonbury is back in the dropdown now, how can we deal with this?
 

 

[Pipine]

Hmmm. Still no sign of it appearing in my list of festivals.. maybe it crashed on payment. Will wait and see what they say when they email me back about it.

Not sure, can't really alert on "Glastonbury - sold out" not being there and "steward" being there as both will be true all the time atm as steward appears for other festivals..

Keeping my fingers crossed for you. 🤞

I've been refreshing the page since it became live, with no joy.

Was considering Campaigning for a while, only Shop available now...!

I was exactly the same, although it showed up that Oxfam had looked at my card (is I am doing IOW and Latitude no deposit was necessary)...but spent an hour on chat and refreshing the page to be told that I was not on their database for Glasto...real punch in the gut!

Yes, just checked again.

Thanks

Holding out for a Stewarding spot I think. (unless successful in the re-sale)

Did Stewarding last year (only at Glasto though) which was great

[Pipine]

Someone else who had the green tick on payment spoke with them and they said that isn't enough for confirmation.. so I guess I was too slow and places went while I was getting payment details in.  

I'll be ready next time! Well done to all that got places today, sounds like quite a few were relased.

Certainly looks like Oxfam are having an admin day, my page monitor has alerted me so many times, stay alert and good luck to everyone!

They opened up Campaigner and Shop applications today, which alone will have a massive impact.

Yes, I am aware of that, but quite a other festivals are open again as was Glastonbury for stewards earlier.

[SecretFish]

the oxfam whatsapp group exploded into action! great to see so many people on the ball

[Pipine]

Looks like the campaign slots are coming and going now.. its setting my alert off a lot.

[blue6field]

Applied for a campaigning role, currently filling in my profile and trying to work out how to upload a video to YouTube 😂

got a confirmation email from Oxfam so just need to wait and see if I’ve been successful 🤞🏼

Hi @StoneCircle and @Pipine

What page monitor are you using please?  There's the issue of the login and Captcha

I have distill set up for post login as it keeps me logged in for a period of time and then I just have to log back in once or twice a day

I am monitoring https://myfestivals.oxfam.org.uk/Signup/FestivalRole using Chrome Extention - Page Monitor whilst already signed in, this bypasses the Captcha.

Also using distill.  Seems to cope well with the login.
