[LM24] What Did You Get? (General Ticketing Chat)

[vincegail]

I managed to get 2x Houx Rank 29, places 7 + 14, and Nobster got places 2 + 19.
Is there anybody here who got 1 + 20, 3 + 18, 6 + 15, or 8 + 13 and wants to swap places so we can have 4 adjacent places?

Thanks in advance,

Houx was all gone at 10:05 this morning. I expected BSJ but plumped for Epinettes. Not entirely sure why I'm paying to be an ACO member.

I have full week GA; Epinettes camping and a Tier 1 Tribune (Siko).

epinettes was surprisingly fun when we were there in 2023

Complete shambles for me. Got in early, and it let me in and showed me ONLY full week +T17/T18 but said nothing available. Then booted me out for an hour (although that did reduce in the end to about 40 minutes). When I got in it showed nothing available in T17 and showed me about 10 seats scattered around T18. As I tried to select things, juggling two accounts on two browsers, everything I tried disappeared. In the end I just bought what was in the carts and ended up bizarrely with two seats together in T17, two seats together in T18 and a single ‘orphan’ seat elsewhere in T18. So despite the two per member rule, I accidentally bought 4 seats on my account. So one of our three will have to sit apart from the other two at the start and finish. We’ll have to make a decision about which two to sell back/on, probably the two in T17. But the experience just gets worse, year on year, simply because the ACO seem to find it impossible to operate their own rules and procedures properly.

It’s definitely a feeling I’m getting Peter….

It sounds like the ACO have been taking lesson's from Ticketmaster...

I tried to get tickets for Oasis and failed. However I did manage to get Coldplay tickets after a very stressful morning.

[Peter Mallett]

Well you were bloody lucky on one front.

Update! Somehow lady fortuna has been very generous today, so this is the state of affairs at the moment:

I managed to get 2x Houx Rank 29, places 7 + 14, a friend of mine got 6 + 15 and another friend of mine got places 2 + 19.
Is there anybody here who got 5 + 16 + 15, or 8 + 13 and wants to swap places so we can have 6 adjacent places?

It's a lot less stressful not buying grandstand or camping tickets... Not a helpful comment, I realise.

The main thing for me was making sure I got Expo and Mulsanne/Arnage parking.

I am definitely wondering if what I pay for membership and access to the members area could be better used buying through an agent.

[Aysedasi]

Seriously considering this for next time around.
