I wonder if anyone was successful for camper van tickets using the recommended single window on single device method

Yep, I did...

Using 5G on phone - 1 tab

 

However, I also got through fairly quickly on an old laptop wired to router, this had two tabs, one on Edge, other on Chrome - Edge won

cause a lot of people just stayed in the queue normally. Or they did the tricks and clogged the queue up. So why change the system ( rebuys excluded ) if it can take 3 hours now. The main sale taking that long would be nice for tickets.

I’m going for tricks and clogging the queue up…

There was quite a bit of bad press about the main sale; the sun had an article about the touting so the festival will certainly be aware it is happening. I can see the resale being back to F5 chaos we all know and love and potentially something very different after the fallow year.

I had a tonne of tabs, browsers and devices. Got  nowhere before anything we wanted sold out. 
Another in our group got through in 5 minutes on a phone with a crappy signal! 
There’s still a bit of luck involved!!

Big up @ShuMart who got me a CV General ticket which it turns out I didn't need after my other half got one in the same 1 minute window

You can now buy a Sticklinch parking ticket without accommodation, worth buying one in the hope of getting a podpad later?

Yes I did, my laptop on WiFi, phone on 5G took a further 2 hours to connect.

How much further will the walk to east general be with our toddler? Are we mad? 🤣

Managed to get through at 12:12 for an East Quiet camper spot, will be my fifth Glasto but first time in the van so looking forward to a new experience ☺️

 

for what it’s worth, had five devices in the go with a mix of browsers and WiFi/5G. The lucky winner was Microsoft Edge on my work laptop

You will be fine, it's about 30 minute from Gate C to the furthest field in General. There's a lock up near the gate once you are through the ticket checks. Its a good place to leave warm clothing, wellies, booze to save a trip back to your live in vehicle.

I have (hopefully) removed everyone's personal details from the posts of those seeking help today. It was so lovely to see everyone helping each other out! Thanks go out to my campervan pass hero @EFC1996!

glad I could help!

Managed to get east quiet today. Never been in campervan fields before so looking forward to something new.

Is there a preferential time to arrive on the Tuesday to get a good spot (close to the entrance gate)? Or are they all decent?
