SOAD Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Im pretty desperate to get a ticket as is everyone. Missed last ysar due to a severe bout of depression (been off work for a year). Had a deposit down for this year but couldnt pay off as was not back at work. Sold my house so finally have some money for the first time in a year. Never done the secret resale before. Its rather stressful lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basicminds Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 I wonder if anyone has been sacked during secret resale time for just being a work shy wreck?? I felt quite calm until today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucys92 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 So i'm thinking, do we all have pretty good odds of getting through on the site? on the resale I didn't even manage to get onto the page but i'm thinking as there won't be as many people on the server we might all have a reasonable chance if were fast enough?

Impossible to know really, yes there won't be as many people hitting the server but I guess it all depends on how many people are trying compared to the amount of tickets available. It could well be fairly proportional to the main sale and resale? Just speculating there mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll save the pineapple and/or Watermelon for Friday when no managers will be in the office. Although it would involve me having to buy said pineapple and/or watermelon which will only extend my period away from my desk. Basically the options are satsuma, apple, plum or banana.

Breeze Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 When the page changes there will be many less people but as the word goes out there may quickly be a lot. Main thing is to get the page loaded ASAP after it changes and crack on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostdancer1 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 just to confirm re: buying a ticket for someone else. I put in their Reg number and Postcode on the entry page. then on the next page, it pre-populates their details (address, email, phone number etc), but I have to change them to mine if I want to use my card? or can I leave the address, email, phone number etc. as theirs, but just put my credit card number, expiry date, and CCV number? (this would mean that at no point anywhere does my name appear on the booking or tied to the card..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, the first time he did that we turned around, got back in our car and drove in to the festival Exactly the same for me last year - we were given our envelopes before we got on and no id check either - on the way home it was a total free for all - just jumped on any coach with no checks whatsoever despite apparently having to adhere to allotted time slot.

beefykoala Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) Morning all! So, I was up at 7am, relying on my pinger >> laptop >> email >> text >> fitbit setup I have. Checked a few minutes ago, and Windows had decided to update and all my windows were closed! Great. Fucking Microsoft. I'm hoping the resale happens before or after 3pm, as I have a training call at that time. But again, I'll just have to experience 'technical difficulties' for a while if they do go on sale. Also SeeTickets responded to my email with this, which I fully do not even slightly believe: "Hi, I’m afraid there are no plans for any further resales. Kind Regards Matt" Edited May 10, 2017 by beefykoala Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word for word, I think Yeah, I had emailed them asking if they could tell me when there wouldn't be a sale (like blackout times) so I could rest with no stress. I figured I would get a blanket response, but it was worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
