My mate got in, put our groups details in, selected the coach time, I then approved it in my banking app, but then it didn't process the payment. Motherfucker.

Oh no - I thought they switched that approval nonsense off for Glastonbury ticket sales? Worrying now about Sunday, as my credit card app is unreliable. Also wastes precious seconds. Can’t anyone who got tickets tonight confirm?

Weirdly enough, some of our devices were giving us the sold out message while others allowed us to keep refreshing the holding page.

Yeah I had this. My friends all had sold out, it was still letting me refresh up until a few minutes ago.

That dispels the idea that demand might be lower this year due to the price increase and cost of living issues.

Not necessarily, you’re only paying the £50 deposit right now. When it comes to paying the other £300+ then we will see

That is bloody awful. I feel hard done by by just getting through to the departure selection page and not being able to proceed further 

[RaphPH]

Much easier getting through on normal ticket day without having to piss around playing pot luck with which bus has a spare seat. 

[Field Commander Jefferson]

Lots of long term regulars missed out this year.

That's what happens when you book shite mainstream pop acts, you get the whole party in the park NPC crowd going to take photos for their instagrams

Seems like a lot less people on here were successful than usual? 2/6 in our group got to selecting coach departures but we’re all sold out.

I had that and opted for the one time passcode, which came through straight away. Once you’re at the payment stage your tickets are reserved for a few minutes so no need to panic!

This is the kind of positivity I'm here for.

Nothing more than the holding page here. Was trying for friends. Trying for FamilyHew on Sunday

The deposit price hasn’t changed.

[Hutchmaster]

Didn't get a sniff of tickets. Took me about five minutes alone to get to the landing page.

That's me setting an alarm Sunday morning!

[Jaepwhite]

We got through on 3 different folk, all the way to selecting the coaches and then nope. We've still got a Thursday one the go and are hopelessly reclicking it 😞

[rascalpete]

What text can we search for on the booking page… can’t search for registration or postcode

Also with Nadine fucking Dorries trying for tickets it just goes to show nothing will change. The clientele will just get richer.

Something changed at See's end mid-sale.

At 1803 DNS was resolving to 5 servers on 31.x.x.x IPs.......at 1829 DNS was resolving to 5 servers on 167.x.x.x IP's.

I didn't check when they changed as I was too busy mashing F5 but it's *possible* that they had big issues and failed over to a separate platform to fix it.

*If* that was the case then a lot of us may have been stuck with DNS cache pointing to the 'failed' IPs....at least until they timed out or were flushed manually.

Just a theory...but something odd did happen.

DNS now has them back on the 31.x.x.x IPs as at the start.

6/13 here. 

Got to the reg page but sold out by the time I got to coaches. 

 

See you all Sunday folks!

[mazola]

brutal. 39 of us split over 8 groups, no one got anything.

I got through to the registration page 6 times after it was sold out, but no further than that

[Bruceyy]

Got through at 6.07pm, into coach selection at 6.09pm, every option I chose from there gave me another error though, incredibly annoying. Not sure if being in a smaller group would've been easier (group of 5)? 
Or selecting somewhere that's not-London to go from, where there's no messing about with choosing a coach time.

Yeah, I really hate that. At least general sale is easier in that sense. Doesn’t make it any less nerve-wracking though!

Hmmm…this does not fill me with confidence! Thanks for the tip though. One time passcodes definitely better.

This happened for my bro in law. He’s with NatWest. He’s so annoyed. Glad I used my card with Barclays for ours. Who do you bank with?

[DareToDibble]

Worth looking at success rate, lots of big groups with nothing. Anyone with a high success rate among more than 1 group?

0/10 for us, will be trying for 12 on Sunday.

anyone using auto refresh extension get through? ive never failed to get past the holding page in 10 years... my first time using auto refresh (set to 2seconds) and it didnt even get past holding this time. i blame auto refresh

I got through with Refreshinator loads of times but always allocated. Did get through to payment page but crashed on me and said sold out 

[gooner1990]

We were trying for 8 coach (6+2) but had all of our group trying (24) 

Got nothing. 😞

Sunday or bust.
