jamesglast Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 i payed up for my ticket the other day but the girl i spoke to messed up and insurance wasn't added. i've payed for a few of mates and they have taken the insurance, but I'm wondering what exactly is covered? if i was to pull out for any reason would i get a refund? if i was ill, would i have to get a doctors cert to prove it? then would i get my dosh bk? if my mates kids were ill, would they be covered then? sorry for all the jibbering but i just want to know, i dont wanna take it out then find out it's no good, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRW Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 From the lack of responses to your post, I am obviously not the only one who has no idea what you are talking about (although to be fair, I didnt book my own ticket this year - for the first time ever)....

LRW Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 There's an option for taking out insurance when paying for your ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pehaw Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Here you go ..... Taken from http://]Can I get a refund for my ticket after May 8th? No. Tickets are non-refundable after the deadline of May 8th. However, if you bought insurance for your ticket and your reason for not being able to come is covered by the insurance policy you may be able to claim on your insurance. http://' target="_blank">Can I insure my ticket? Yes. Should you be concerned you will be unable to attend the Festival due to any unforeseen circumstances, you may wish to consider insuring your ticket. Cancellation insurance will be available to purchase for £3.90 per ticket when booking tickets, either online or when you call the SeeTickets booking line; or you may already be covered by your own personal insurance.

feefeetee Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 When I bought them the other day, I had to chuckle, I did it over the phone due to their lack of having taken my email address when I bought the deposit tickets back in Oct over the phone, and the woman I was talking to wasn't sure what was covered with the insurance either, she said they didn't have that info yet I didn't bother, I'd have to be on deaths door not to be there anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomfromStroud Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Insurance??? Well I suppose when you're charging such an obscene amount for a ticket you have to consider these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckley Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 i think insurance is a good idea... im sure loads of people end up not going due to work refusing to give them the time off OR money issues, e.t.c my new holiday year didnt start till this january but i paid my deposit in oct... the early oct thing could effect a lot of people when they get round to actually booking the time off.

Boris Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Most people dont realise you have until well into May to get a refund... Your insuring yourself for like a month... Seems pretty pointless to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdusty surfer Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 insurance hardly worth it.......................as stated in the t&c's, you are NOT covered in the case of an outbreak of the Ebola virus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choadus Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 the only reason i can see insurance being useful at a festival is if you cannot attend it for some reason... Just dont take anything of value to the festi, surely you can live without a laptop or sumat for 3 days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
