Ashl Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Do we know if the card used for payment still has to be the lead bookers? (I thought it did but now unsure!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Had a massive panic this weekend. Internet went down for about 12 hours, plus won't connect in my office now, so fingers crossed it works for Thursday. All the tricks and tips in the world won't salvage a WiFi outage.

tj95 Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Looks like the links previously shared have been taken down unsurprisingly. Any advantage to trying to refresh these or just proceed as usual via normal SeeTickets link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotspot your phone? There's works on cables here on Thursday morning... If disaster occurs I guess I can work late at the office but that won't be a thing if it's Sunday sale after all... Re:VPN: I did get tickets through a work VPN a couple of times, maybe See has something against weird dark web VPNs that may look like a "here's your favourite DOS source" but otherwise I think it doesn't make a difference one way or another. With the amount of WFH people these days and the popularity of company VPNS I'd doubt it would be negatively seen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s always the fear, I pad as backup with enough data transferred from phone. I also connect PC to hub with an Ethernet cable . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mufcok Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 This is the week where the paranoia sets in now. I'm flying back from Spain on Saturday afternoon, having nightmares that the flight gets cancelled 🥲 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb4747 Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Hi, long time so see. Last visit to the farm was 2019 where I spent the entire weekend wishing my daughter was with me. Fast forward to next year and if I'm lucky to get tickets I will be having to decide whether to bring a 5 year old and 15 month old, or whether my husband and I just need to get shit faced. Good luck for Thursday and Sunday everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying a VPN gets you in any quicker, but 10-15 separate VPNs on different browsers can. Whilst not ethically the best way to go about getting tickets, a wins a win!

4AssedMonkey Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Woke up with T-day nerves for the first time this morning. Honestly been trying not to think about it. Just read this entire thread as the start of my prep and if anything, I'm more anxious now! I've definitely been guilty of refreshing too much in the past as I only heard about the blocking thing around 6-7 years ago. Before that I was hammering multiple browser windows like a clown and got nowhere. Anyway, thanks to all those with IT skills for the tips and good luck everyone. ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I wouldn’t dare attempt to muck about with a registration so close to the cut off time. Just get the tickets and then make any alterations to your address.

rmartin1803 Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Anyone got new links for the booking page? 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwendo Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 what's the consensus on using university Wi-Fi for the ticket sale? Would you still run into issues with the refresh limit if other people are trying on the same network or should it be fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
