Kind of, I have to go into work today so my chances are likely to be hindered a bit. Good luck to you though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanShirt Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Got kicked out of the proceed page this morning. Bummer! Also I hope the poster yesterday wasn't directing their hate at me for refreshing on the hour while on the toilet/ on my lunch break. We all have to work to do!

Is your name a reference to the expression 'Fuck off Clean Shirt' from PeepShow? Love that episode. It might have been me venting... But it's just such a crazy system!!!

Yeah if you refresh the page or it logs you out due to inactivity you'll lose it i'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faymondo Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Well NASS came up on the hour then so I think there might be something in the hourly theory (Possibly half hour as well ?) I reckon you need to get through and fail but be left on the proceed page. Then next time you are straight to payment after pressing proceed numerous times and not refresh. Thats how it worked for me yesterday. Good luck everyone. Still over 5 weeks to nab an Oxfam place to keep the faith and play the long game.

But I needed to keep an eye on the page for days waiting for glasto to just appear in the first place.... In my case it looked like it was on the hour + half hour. ymmv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faymondo Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Looks like there was one at 11:30. I am now on the "proceed" page. Hope it was one of us that got it 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APLTree Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Are those who are not on the "proceed page" seeing these pop up? Because I am aggressively refreshing and not even seeing it pop up at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was refreshing from 11:29 and it came up at 11:30 and got onto the next page as Glastonbury option appeared but could not proceed after that (Still on that page now) It is just pure luck. By the looks of it need first bit of luck to get Glastonbury option but you will be beaten to it by somebody who is on proceed. The next time you will only have to press proceed and if lucky bang in your banking details. Not sure if you get to banking its yours so still be very quick ?? Also deffo coming up on the half hour and hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franks Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 I've been desperately trying to get a place for me and my boyfriend since the release of spaces last week, I did Oxfam at Glasto in 15 and loved it. Just wanna say thanks for all the helpful info that's been put on here (had no idea Distill existed a week ago!). I'm now on the Proceed page but keep missing despite my aggressive clicking - is it just luck and hoping you click at the right time to get through from this point on? Living half an hour to half an hour has been an experience, but totally worth it if we get spaces! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note sure random ones are coming up at present and there does seem to be a pattern. Just make sure you press proceed and nor refresh as if you refresh I think it boots you out. Good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbyphil Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Well, after 19 years of attending as a punter I have joined the Oxfam team. If you see a solo bewildered middle aged man wandering around, say hello. See you in July. 😉 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a ten min walk outside gate B, and the car park is next door so there's no huge carry of stuff for miles - which is great for those of us who bring duvets, pillows, all that jazz . . .
