pjdpjd Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Hi, Due to a change in my wife’s circumstances (medical, she’s still desperate to come), she has decided it isn’t sensible/feasible to come next weekend. Does the festival ever do last minute refunds? Who would I contact? thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Don't think so. Best bet is to try and sell it to a lookalike. I had success on here (in terms of both sale and entry) doing the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedra Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Sadly not - unless you took out the ticket insurance and it met their criteria then unfortunately no chance of a refund. I hope your wife feels better soon 🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy92 Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 If you took out ticket insurance you’ll be able to claim off that. I hope your wife gets better soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjdpjd Posted June 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Hmmm. I had considered selling but we have coach tickets which makes it slightly trickier. We did not opt for the insurance… the chance of us pulling out (we thought) was about 0%! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner1990 Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Just now, pjdpjd said: Looks like we will need to try and sell. If anyone is after a female, early 30s - brown hair / eyes ticket, let me know. It is a coach ticket - benefits is I guess you know it’s real, and you can enter with us, however, you do need to be somewhere south at 6am on Thursday … might help if people know what the departure point is!

HyperTechnoHorse Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 This is why you always buy ticket insurance, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't help if it's just because "it isn’t sensible/feasible" to go. Need a doctor's note saying you're "unable" to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelarmy Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 I’d contact the accessibility team. They may be able to help with medical needs at short notice depending on the illness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Good) GPs will happily write you a note for this even if you're technically still able to go - I've done this before, twice, with absolutely no issues, and both times I had nothing more than some sniffles and stress.

Even if I had to give up my Glastonbury ticket tomorrow, I'd still lose far less than the amount I've not spent on insurance over the years.

I had this ticket and the person I’m meant to be using has just bailed on me cause they can’t be bothered to sort it out and would rather lose the £400 ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHS postcode lottery. For huge swathes of the nation you wouldn't even be able to get a GP appointment in a couple of days to talk about the possibility of a letter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarnerBest Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Hello - I am an early 30s brown haired female looking for a ticket! Let me know if you still are looking for someone to pass it onto. Take care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theciderviking Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Whilst I'm sure you're already aware, and I'm not suggesting for one minute that the people who've joined this forum just to comment on this thread asking for your ticket aren't genuine, be wary of scams - it's not just fake ticket seller scams doing the rounds, often buyers can be trying to scam too - whether paying with fake cash, dodgy bank/Paypal payments that are reversed, stolen money, spoofed paper trails of payments that don't exist etc. etc. Be careful, hope you manage to get rid of it and that your wife is soon on the mend.

fightoffyour Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Yeah not to question the legitimacy of anyone who joined up and posted - forums like these always tend to have more lurkers than active posters - but since I did suggest this first I will say that I sold mine to an established poster here.

hazrdx Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 I am also looking for a ticket and match the description! let me know if still available :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfy Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 If selling/buying - friend on fb - it’s a good way to check both the physical likeliness and a basic scan of the legitimacy of the seller/buyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t look like it was worth the paper it was printed on, basically have to be dead, dying or hospitalised. The amount of times I’ve skipped it now, I’d still be ‘up’ if I had to loose out one time.

Try actually reading the terms of the insurance. And then running some basic slterbetivr calculations including self insurance. Buying ticket insurance is for mugs and has one of the highest margins in the industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cee Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) What does your wife look like? I’m a 30 year old brown hair female desperately looking for a ticket!!!
