If buying for someone else do I put my address details on the 'Billing Contact and Delivery Address Details' page....or will it pre-populate with Lead Booker address and to leave that detail in?

that's a great question which I hope someone answers!

The address of the lead booker is used, which auto-populates.

If you are buying tickets for someone else you do not need to put your details in.

standard 🙂 .... welcome to all the new people ... hopefully they will sick around for celebrations and build up 🙂 

I only vanished because I wasn't lucky to get tickets to 2020 (2022) and I was suffering major FOMO so decided to have another baby, buy a house and get married to take my mind off it 🤪

Congratulations 😊

I also had terrible fomo, but went the lazier way and joined a resale group.

But won't there then be a conflict on Billing address which might impact payment authorisation?

So as much as I would like to go again I cannot justify the cost when I look what I can get for the same elsewhere.

My wife and I went in 2019 our first Glastonbury and my wife's first festival. I hadn't been to a festival since 1997. We absolutely loved it but the kids weren't happy we went without them so contemplated going this year. Our kids are 15 and 17 so will cost the adult price and when I add up not only the ticket price plus 4 coach tickets From leeds at £100 each plus a tent in Worthy view (I know I don't have to but we would need to if going) plus spending money I am looking at £3500. We also like hot weather which is one of the reasons we loved 2019 and if it was to rain all weekend I would be gutted to spend all that money and be miserable. I believe. I was half tempted to try for tickets as only need to pay the deposit and reassess next year but I know that I probably won't go no matter how good the line up is so have decided not to bother. For All those trying I hope for your sake there are a lot people in my situation and who will not try today/Sunday. Or if you are unsuccessful this week that there will be a better chance in the resale compared to other years. Good luck everyone

Same here.  I'll be working but trying to get 6 x Oxfords for mates. 

Sorry to repeat myself a bit, but will you guys be using the registration number of a friend who is also trying to buy using his registration number at the same time?

resale coach is 2

i've seen about 5 people on here say main sale coach used to be 4. someone needs to go on the wayback machine and settle this once and for all!

I’m sure it’s been asked, but do you need to pay the full coach price tonight as well as the £50 deposit? Trying for coach for first time and can’t work that out from the comms.

I did.

It was always 6. I have no idea where 4 came from. It's only ever been 4 in the General Resale.

There’s 6 in the group and all 6 (plus some others) will be trying for all 6.

Its important to stay in the groups!

Information from the 2014 festival, which was the first time Coach packages went on sale in October.

@golden egg Maybe WHEN you are through, try with the old post code, if error with the new?

I am GUESSING you could still contact SEE after to get that changed, although not sure how you'd prove it's you without the email address? See doesn't do to bad in terms of that support from personal experience...

[Xeph1995]

Nervous would be an understatement.

Can anybody advise on an auto refreshing plugin? One that stops when webpage changes?

Auto refresh plus seems to be plugin du jour, just have to have it stop when it reads "Postcode:"

Yes, you do need to enter a name and address that matches the one for the credit/debit card you're paying with, definitely, or else the payment will fail
