O'Doyle Rules Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Have already seen in groups people going "oh I will try then if they're on sale then - thought i missed it" Going to be tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernintendo Chalmers Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 It would have been easier and less confusing to just delete all details on July 1st and get anyone interested to re-register by October 1st. Sometimes this organisation doesn't help itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiZuff Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 those people who are like "oh yeah ill reg now for glasto" will not even remember there is a sale on. i know so many people like that. they never turn up on the day. i dont think it will change the chances of getting tickets a huge amount. Not everyone is like us when it comes to glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a pain, and amateur hour frankly. And do these people really need another whole fortnight to re-register? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 What’s an extra week going to achieve for people who weren’t organised enough to re-register in the first place? Guaranteed that in two weeks time exactly the same thing will happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a minor inconvenience at most I care because there are lots of people trying, and not enough tickets to go around. This will give more people a chance to be involved in the sale - which is not good for anybody who was all set and ready to go for today/Sunday's sales.

xDanny Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 When you get the email with a list of registrations, does the link that they send to 'View, edit or delete' actually load anything? I updated mine a few weeks ago and could see my details, photo etc but now the link just takes me to a generic registration page - not my profile. I'm wondering if this is the cock up?

Suprefan Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 1 minute ago, TiZuff said: i know of 2 people who said they had checked their emails and confirmed the reg but it had still been deleted. i assumed it was just BS and an excuse but im beginnign to wonder if somebody messed up somewhere... I mean the aIt People at See probably get paid pence to do this. Not shocking. I think they shouldve done this "purge" over the summer and not just in a month before everything else. also feel that their casual attitude about it all is what got them here in the first place. Always making things last minute is not healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyisRFC Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Surely they could’ve just released a statement when they discovered what has happened, then just reopened registrations? Not for new registrations but just for people to confirm their registrations. People would’ve had today, tomorrow, Saturday just to confirm they were registered? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstruck Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 24 minutes ago, stuartasmith85 said: Just going from some anecdotal evidence, it looks like some people who did all the requested steps to confirm their registrations still got them deleted. Obviously, said people had loads of time to check before Monday, so I'm not sure Glasto had to do this - but I can see that, if more than a handful of people's registrations were genuinely deleted in error, and they've only really realised that this week, it made sense to do something. I was one of them - luckily I checked last week and re registered. But I confirmed my old reg and it still got deleted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that’s what always happens so you don’t alter details photos etc after registration closes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a minor inconvenience at most That's a narrow perspective isn't it? People have lives with things happening and they've tried to plan them around the sale dates and times, so of course a proportion of those people will not be able to change plans at two weeks notice.

thatTFBguy Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Such a stupid decision. If people weren't arsed enough to have registered for today, clearly they weren't that fussed about getting tickets in the first place. Also a pain for me personally as I was going to try and get tickets and if that failed go for Green Day in London next week as an alternative. You have to wonder if maybe registration numbers were really down and the festival wants to keep the whole "Glasto tickets are impossible to get" reputation going and a year where they were much easier could dent that (or is that too tin foil hat?)

autoinflate Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 fed up with all the publicity around ticket sales (and the festival in general) giving everyone a 'fair chance' to jam up the website on ticket day. make it a zero-publicity sale with press embargo, post the sale date/time on the website and leave it at that - give people who really, really want to go and make the effort to get organised a better chance. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
