Can't believe you will have any problems

Only about 9 people registered this year.


Also

Lat year I used our work computers to get over 70 tickets. We arent doing that this year which might help a bit!


Ooooh!

That time of year again!

I'm always feeling the same. Shivery and nervous, with my eyes almost fully shut because I'm up at stupid o'clock on a Sunday morning.

I've had the preliminary nightmare too.


OK lets make this THE OFFICIAL GLASTONBURY 2008 LINK THREAD

Post links to ticketforms if you get through.

may the force be with you all. Godspeed

here's to Neil Diamond


orrr

you could post them on my special alt. links thread.
not bens STUPID attempt at a glasto thread.....


Yeh

alright.

If Ben is stupid, I'll post on yours. makes sense.


never!

Refund coach/train tickets?

Do you know if you can get a refund for coach/train tickets if I return them before May 9th? I know that's the case for the festival tickets...although come to think of it, is it a FULL refund?


bloody!!!!

hell. is it just me or is everything down!


everything is for me

i can't even get the busy screen >.<


no you're right

i'm sat in a business centre in 'Vegas and everythings seems down here too. please post if anyone gets links. good luck all.


nope, not just you.

can't even get onto efestivals.


everythings down

Seetickets office is in nottingham mind so I may march down there later.

surprisingly enough.


has anyone actually got

them yet..


Not me personally,

but, someone in my group has gotten onto the reg page.

Apparently it's a cunt to click process as well.


There is a huge fuck up.

I'm through but it isn't recognising our numbers!

:(


:(

on which link..


that happened to our friend

last year, they wont help you at all


45

THE FOLLOWING ERROR HAS OCCURED:
None of the Registration Numbers / Postcodes you have entered exist in our database. Please check them and try again.


homm

bad bad times


do you need postcodes for

the people yr buying tickets for as well as their names and reg numbers?


yeah

080-8


This has happened to loads apparently.

Don't put any spaces in the postcodes.


I just got tickets!

I didn't get through myself but my mate did! Good luck to everyone still trying!


busy page!

its a start.


same!

not helpful though.


I've got them

No spaces in the postcodes people


which link..


oh god

it's 9.30am, I feel sick, it's snowing outside and I'm on the internet trying to get tickets


WHAT THE FUCK

IS THIS POSTCODE SHITE?

a bit of notice about that would have been nice.


Its sunny here!


I'm constantly getting through.

But its not having it.

Good job this isn't last year, when I was DYING to go!


anyone

getting anything other than the internet explorer 'cannot display page' ?


Seetickets.com

On internet explorer. Firefox and Safari are failing badly.


link plz


looks

like i'm going to latitude if this keeps up.

worse things have happened


shittest website known to man

i've got 15 tabs open and 2 other people on a laptop an phone

this is fucking ridiculous!


Lose the tabs, my friend!

Seeryusli!

2007 I had about a million open and I didn't get anywhere. This year I've used one sole tab and got through.


still trying

its starting to free up a bit

https://www.wayahead-secure.co.uk/see/
if been trying that link, it still comes up as busy but at least i can see the see logo

i got mine at 11am last year , so im not panicking yet


Agh!

(Although 11am is reassuring....
I was lamenting the fast-approaching, critical 1 hour mark)


a friend managed to get me some tickets..

if it helps; he went back to start page instead of refreshing and was using firefox on a mac.


'your friend'

have they got the link to the booking page ?


my friend

got through for me. put in card deets and then it timed itself out.

then when we tried again it said these deets have already been used.

this is not good is it?


yes, it is.

if they've been used it means you've bought a ticket.

probably.

I CAN'T REMEMBER WHICH POSTCODE I USED.

How ridiculous.


probably

isn't good enough for me!!!!1

fucking see tickets

i wanna see jay-z sooooooooooo badly!


.

http://www.seetickets.com/g2008

kept copying and pasting into the address bar instead of refreshing etc.


Thank God for that.

It wasn't having one of the numbers.

So I bought two of our tickets. Then I put the other guy's in separately after and it worked.

Yay! See you at the Glastonbury. But not at the Leftfield Tent plz.


which link

please


My tips for getting through:

Keep using See Tickets.

www.seetickets.com/g2008 was what I used I think.

Internet Explorer. Firefox was crap. As was Safari. Keep clicking the 'Click here to try again' link.

Thing is, now I'm through I can go back and put multiple orders through. Its a shame we aren't all best friends.


do any of you

have a direct link to the booking page PLEASE


No

Because they made it this year so you couldn't link directly to the ticket page


^

talking drunken shit, that is


Local draw

yet to go my man.


Oh, if you dont get any?

There isnt any beirut this year.


Got one for me!

Still need to get more.


Wait...its gone

:(

Come back!


4 tickets at 9:08am

and then i booked all my mates :D


so you Decided to go!

good on ya


Much to the anger

of my mother


shoulda coaxed her along

the more the merrier!


just got dove_from_above

hahahaha i'm awesome


Just spoke to

my mate he got his confirmation e-mail within 20 minutes that's a vast improvement on last year!


just got 3

good luck everyone and i used
http://www.seetickets.com/g2008


anyone else

got to the reg page, put in numbers, went to confirm all names correct and then page timing out???

Arrrggghhhhh


Finally got through

entered all the details and it fucked up on the last page once I'd clicke submit.


I had this

timed out. They've let too many people into the order system at one time. To resubmit or not to resubmit...


that happened to me

and when i resubmitted it said the numbers had already been used.

this means one of two things

1. i have 2 tickets

2. i have no tickets

there is nothing i can do because it wont let me in again. only fate can decide now!


YOU should get an email

soon, if you have


this is what

im waiting for. last year i didnt get one for 3 or 4 days though.

as i say it wont let me back in so i'll just have to sit tight.

last year i was desperate to go, but after all that fucking rain and sigur ros and r'head at rock werchter, worse things could have happened


This has now happened to me

Fate it is!


me too

crossed finger


okay getting worried!! i still cant get on the site!!

what time do they sell out normally?!?


late late late on.

Don't worry.


i hope your right! last time got um in baout twenty minutes!

...grr .. iwant to play in the snow


not timed out,

just not displaying


I GOT TICKETS

VIA THE PHONE!


sitting tight

Morning. Thanks to everyone here, kept us going.
Have the same thing as wafer_bucks and will have to just keep fingers crossed.
It seems to be freeing up, so worth sticking with it if you haven't been lucky so far.
Thanks again everyone.


I was always against the idea

but a lottery might be the way forward nest year.


*next

...


No

Might be a better Idea to spread it across a few websites though, because clearly Seetix cant handle it.


PODCAST!

www.earstotheskies.wordpress.com

something to do whil your waiting I suppose! we do a debate on festivals


Same boat

Re: timing out and not letting me back in. Hammering the phone now...


i've

entered in all the reg. details and postcodes but its been loading since for about 10 minutes.
