Incorrect name for ticket

[FloorFiller]

So I got tickets. Wahoo! But have just noticed that my name on my ticket is wrong and has my second name twice (Floorfiller Floorfiller) instead of my full name (Jonny Floorfiller). Can this be edited at a later date (seems to be closed now) or is it something I should contact seetickets over asap? Not sure why it's happened as I don't think I edited anything on my registration this year...

Shouldn't worry too much. As long as the photo is obviously you you'll be fine,

They've never checked my name at the gate, just the photo. But perhaps call See when all the fuss today has died down?

you can't edit a registration once a ticket is confirmed.

I wouldn't contact SEE just take obvious ID with you and if challenged at the gate play dumb and say you never even noticed and show them said ID. 

Should not be a problem as the photo will be you with half your name

Obvious solution is to change your name by deed poll

Hiya,

 

I have made this mistake this year 😭

and I am so worried my tickets will be taken away/I won’t be able to get in.

how did you get on when you did this?

 

Thank you for any info given in advance 🙂

Wouldn't worry in the slightest, they don't check the names! I've a friend who forgot to put her first name on her registration (I know, what the hell) and never been an issue

As above if photo matches you’ll likely be grand

Would you say it’s better not to contact se

See tickets and instead access with my name the way that it is? Thanks for your reply 🤞🏼

If the photo's fine I wouldn't bother! There's zero fuss going in whereas you could imagine SeeTickets being a bit sniffy about changing details post-registration

@FloopFiller (assuming that's the same person) what did you do in the end? 

[Crazyfool01]

Yep agree

I’m such a worrier. I don’t want to arrive and not get in 😭 all my details are correct, just my surname for both names. Have no idea how I did that, and didn’t notice 🤦🏼‍♀️

So the only scenario under which the name is even looked at, is if the photo is queried.

 

If the name is clearly for the same person (as yours is), then nobody is going to be bothered about whether it exactly matches what's on your birth certificate.

 

Really don't worry about it.

No sweat, you've plenty of time to get things sorted -

Hmm I honestly can’t at all remember what I ended up doing, but I think I just left it as is and it was no problem at all.

This reminded me of the lower stakes time I did this where, for some reason, SeeTickets let me put "Not" in front of my first name on my ticket to see The National last September.

 

But I guess the checks for a regular ol' gig are less extensive.
