there might not be an issue but there might be an issue because you've no idea what else might be going on with that vpn, probably better to stick to your home setup where you know and control what's going on

Yeah, I always use my home setup on my works laptop, but always used different VPNs on separate browsers on a crappy old laptop with an auto refresh, and every sale I've been in it is one of the VPN browsers that gets in.

Do we know if the card used for payment still has to be the lead bookers? (I thought it did but now unsure!)

Pretty sure you can use any debit card (credit card for international).

Thanks there was no mention of it on the page so will assume that is right!

there's definitely no advantage to using a vpn.

If something works for you I'd say carry on until it doesn't 😊

if something works for getting tickets that person is convinced they've found the trick. enough people round here have tried vpn's without any better success, so trainfella has just got lucky.

Trust me - don't bother with VPN's and all that ...  lucky pants are where its at 😉

Had a massive panic this weekend. Internet went down for about 12 hours, plus won't connect in my office now, so fingers crossed it works for Thursday. All the tricks and tips in the world won't salvage a WiFi outage.

Aye, I'm suggesting if they've been lucky then carry on until they aren't

Looks like the links previously shared have been taken down unsurprisingly. 

Any advantage to trying to refresh these or just proceed as usual via normal SeeTickets link?

It's doubtful you'd get any benefit really, just refresh the normal links

Hotspot your phone? There's works on cables here on Thursday morning... If disaster occurs I guess I can work late at the office but that won't be a thing if it's Sunday sale after all...

Re:VPN: I did get tickets through a work VPN a couple of times, maybe See has something against weird dark web VPNs that may look like a "here's your favourite DOS source" but otherwise I think it doesn't make a difference one way or another. With the amount of WFH people these days and the popularity of company VPNS I'd doubt it would be negatively seen...

That’s always the fear, I pad as backup with enough data transferred from phone. I also connect PC to hub with an Ethernet cable .

This is the week where the paranoia sets in now.

I'm flying back from Spain on Saturday afternoon, having nightmares that the flight gets cancelled 🥲

Hi, long time so see. 
Last visit to the farm was 2019 where I spent the entire weekend wishing my daughter was with me. Fast forward to next year and if I'm lucky to get tickets I will be having to decide whether to bring a 5 year old and 15 month old, or whether my husband and I just need to get shit faced. 

Good luck for Thursday and Sunday everyone!

[Joshuwarr]

Been in the queue for Finalissima tickets for nearly an hour. Hope this Thursday is a little less sluggish...

I'm not saying a VPN gets you in any quicker, but 10-15 separate VPNs on different browsers can. Whilst not ethically the best way to go about getting tickets, a wins a win!

So that booking page link is down now right? I’ve tried clicking the links on here and it’s now saying page no found

How much longer do we have to change address details on our registrations? 

you can change it at any time, doesn't need to be done before Thursday/sunday

Woke up with T-day nerves for the first time this morning.  Honestly been trying not to think about it.  Just read this entire thread as the start of my prep and if anything, I'm more anxious now!

I've definitely been guilty of refreshing too much in the past as I only heard about the blocking thing around 6-7 years ago.  Before that I was hammering multiple browser windows like a clown and got nowhere.

Anyway, thanks to all those with IT skills for the tips and good luck everyone.  ❤️

To be honest I wouldn’t dare attempt to muck about with a registration so close to the cut off time. Just get the tickets and then make any alterations to your address. 

[rmartin1803]

Anyone got new links for the booking page? 😎

[Kwendo]

what's the consensus on using university Wi-Fi for the ticket sale? Would you still run into issues with the refresh limit if other people are trying on the same network or should it be fine?
