Got through to select a location 4 times before finally securing the tickets at 6:20. Absolutely made up, not been successful in the coach sale for years

How many of you are in the group and what location? thats super late if its a big group and very impressive!

Congratulations all who succeeded tonight. Made up for you 🙌 Quick question: when it was processing your payment, did you need to approve the payment in your banking/card app or enter a one-time passcode? I’m concerned about this stage. Thought they turned it off for Glastonbury ticket sales in previous years…

I had to approve payment in my banking app… they held the tickets for 5 mins I think? I made sure the phone my banking app is on was free and not being used for tickets

Not sure they're actually held for those 5 mins as me and others did the same as you but got kicked out/payment not gone through.

Yay!  I'm going!  Coach from Brum!

Thanks 🙏🏻 It’s just I’ve had a problem with my credit card app approving an online payment before, which resulted in my card being temporarily blocked. A monumental pain! Debit card it is then (assuming I get to that stage on Sunday 🤞)

Do you know what feels as good as getting a ticket?

Donating to charity.

Come on you lucky people.

I typically am for most/all payments but wasn't on this occasion. Not entirely sure why.

Just two of us. I was so surprised we managed so late, especially to get Wednesday travel from Liverpool of all places!

[Riggins]

Suspect it helped mightily trying for just me, going straight for Thursday and nabbing a 5am coach, but buzzing all the same to have it in the bag.

 

I had nothing the first five minutes then seemed to get through all at once. Went through in Incognito and had bank issues but somehow it actually held the ticket and didn't boot me

[a6l6e6x]

We assigned one person in the group to go for Thursday while everyone else went for Wednesday. Thursday got through pretty damn quick

I had a timer ticking down when I was going through the authentication… so who knows

Well first ever time trying to get tickets for any year and got them pretty easily. Is this what they call beginners luck?

Yes totally . Congratulations

First timer on the coach from Edinburgh. Scraped off the ceiling and settled down with a cup of tea. 

[Funkyfairy!]

Well done to everyone that was successful

Thanks 🙏🏻 Have looked into it a bit more. Think it might depend on your bank/card issuer and personal security settings. My credit card company say it’s “occasional” authorisation only. I’ve only had to approve online payments 2 or 3 times this year (the second one I had a problem with) and I use it regularly.

Later on it gets to the pairs, then the singles at the end. it gets pretty crazy near the end but if you keep at it you can bag tickets like you did! 🙂

Is there a link similar for the Sunday sale?

There probably will be, but not sure what it is yet.. someone might know based on previous years what it’s likely to be.

Congratulations everyone who got tickets tonight....you have the keys to nivarna.
