Islander Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Got them!! Just got my 2 on the 01271 number - so excited! See you there
HertsSaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Did you just keep clicking 'buy tickets'? Everytime I try says nothing matches criteria - am only selecting 1 ticket Strange, are you selecting the database number from the drop down list or have you not got that far?
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 So what is this 01271 number?! Just seems a little strange that we're all ringing a random number and giving over our card details! I mean surely, it should be an 02380 number, right?
SNSUN Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 So what is this 01271 number?! Just seems a little strange that we're all ringing a random number and giving over our card details! I said that on the other thread! Seemed like the OP had stumbled across a clever ruse to make us all ring in and give our card details for nothing! (While I did see that as a joke, I did partly buy my tickets online today as insurance... :-))
krissyboy31 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 So what is this 01271 number?! Just seems a little strange that we're all ringing a random number and giving over our card details! I mean surely, it should be an 02380 number, right? Overflow call-centre based in Barnstaple. Much bigger facility and resources than the ticket office at SMS and more importantly, more phonelines and operators.
silversaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Finally got through and got 2! Guys keep trying on the 01271 number, when it rings just leave it, mine was ringing for 28 minutes in the end, it's well worth it!
.comsaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 So what is this 01271 number?! Just seems a little strange that we're all ringing a random number and giving over our card details! I mean surely, it should be an 02380 number, right? I asked the bloke in the ticket office about that when I got through this morning. He said the official number for sales was the 0800 number - but the 01271 335708 was an "alternative" sales number which isn't that widely known. Got 2 tickets on the 01271 - so chuffed. And the guy said there were 3,000 tickets left at 8.30 - not 4,000.
Brussels Saint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Bloody hell can't get through on either number and the online service does not work if you are based overseas. Also roaming in Sweden at the moment, so costing me a fortune on my mobile. Interestingly, you can still get Corp Hospitality direct from Wembley at 209 quid a ticket for those minted/desperate enough.........
.comsaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Finally got through and got 2! Guys keep trying on the 01271 number, when it rings just leave it, mine was ringing for 28 minutes in the end, it's well worth it! Good things come to he who waits silversaint. Nice one. Perserverance is the answer!
niceandfriendly Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Got mine online after what seemed like endless refreshing. At one point I thought it was never going to connect, so hang in there guys.
silversaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Cheers .com, just tried to be as quick as possible when I got through to free up the lines for the rest of the fans!!
Channon's Sideburns Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Got my 4 online....yippeee!!!! Blocks 532-537. GEEEETTTT IIIINNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I 5 people on 5 different phones on hold for me in my office! I WILL get tickets...
miss_biscuits Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 woohoo, got my two!!! Couldn't get them online. Managed to get them on the 01271 number. was on hold for 12minutes and eventually got through. Could only get tickets in blocks 532-537 - apparently only blocks left Everyone who's still waiting, keep trying you will get through. Good luck
Foxstone Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 01271 335708 Should get you straight through. It did - Got mine ! Bring it on...... Seats also still available on Angela Coaches if anybody needs transport ( £25 per seat).
notnowcato Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I'm in the cheap seats, in the corner, with the gods... do I care??
TBone-Tone Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Just managed to order mine online ..... happy days!
Foxstone Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Sounds like there will be a real Saints Web Forum Fest up in that corner of the gods !
Foxy Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Woot, an hour of trying with two phones and laptop and ticket finally obtained online. Keep trying guys, there's still a fair few left by the look of it. See you there
SNSUN Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I'm in the cheap seats, in the corner, with the gods... do I care?? Nope! When I rang up last week for the JPT area final ticket bit, the lady asked where I wanted to sit - and I said I didn't care as long as I get to be there! (Although she gave me a very favourable seat on the halfway line...:-D)
beatlesaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I 5 people on 5 different phones on hold for me in my office! I WILL get tickets... I have got to the stage where I am willing you to get your tickets. Good luck mate
Saint-scooby Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Both lines busy, I will be realley pssied off when I see all those empty seats NC please do another hissy fit
Foxy Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Woot, an hour of trying with two phones and laptop and ticket finally obtained online. Keep trying guys, there's still a fair few left by the look of it. See you there Just checked the seating plan. I'm gonna be able to see my house from up there!
.comsaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I have got to the stage where I am willing you to get your tickets. Good luck mate lol. Yeah - c'mon Saintmike666. I won't rest easy until I know you're sorted ffs!
MongoNeil Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Been phoning both numbers all morning to no avail. For some reason I can't log in to the on-line ticket sales so phoned a mate who won't be able to go as he'll be away and he's managed to get me two tickets on-line for me and the misses. See you all at Wembley :-)
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 It took 1 hour and 13 minutes but I got my 5 tickets!!!! Get in there!!! Cant wait!! Got through on the 01271 number in the end... :) Person I spoke to told me there were about 1500 tickets left as of 9.40am.

Shrivvy Saint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss One for me and the boy. Keep trying the 01271 number - I have since 8.30. Got there in the end. Once through it will ring for a while but will be picked up eventually. See you all there..................
SNSUN Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 At this rate, my guess in the sweep for the time the tickets sell out at is: 09:42 Person I spoke to told me there were about 1500 tickets left as of 9.40am. I was well off then! If available from the ticket office I reckon it wouldn't have taken this long... ;-)
.comsaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 It took 1 hour and 13 minutes but I got my 5 tickets!!!! Get in there!!! Cant wait!! Got through on the 01271 number in the end... :) Person I spoke to told me there were about 1500 tickets left as of 9.40am. Phew. Nice one Mike. Glad you're sorted. I can finally do myself some toast & a cuppa now! Good luck to everyone else that's trying too. The 01271 number does seem the best bet. Happy days!

Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Note to self... *Next time, go to the bloody semi-final!!*
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Phew. Nice one Mike. Glad you're sorted. I can finally do myself some toast & a cuppa now! Good luck to everyone else that's trying too. The 01271 number does seem the best bet. Happy days! Cuppa? I need a scotch after that The 01271 number is by far more promising..
southbourne saint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 8 mins of music then told they are busy
LVSaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Author Posted 10 March, 2010 Got two phones trying to get through, me in Vegas and a mate in London. Not sure I'm going to make this....not sure I can stay awake...
supergoose Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 It's taken me nearly 1.5 hours but I've got 2 via the 01271 number!!!!!!!!!!!
Poshie72 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 It took 1 hour and 13 minutes but I got my 5 tickets!!!! Get in there!!! Cant wait!! Got through on the 01271 number in the end... :) Person I spoke to told me there were about 1500 tickets left as of 9.40am. Excellent news.. you deserve them for perserverance alone.
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Got two phones trying to get through, me in Vegas and a mate in London. Not sure I'm going to make this....not sure I can stay awake... Keep trying mate. Good luck!! So have you stayed up late, or got up realllllllly early?
LVSaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Author Posted 10 March, 2010 Keep trying mate. Good luck!! So have you stayed up late, or got up realllllllly early? Stayed up :smt015 Thing is I'm still getting the engaged tone..missed the boat on this one I feel.
doubleonothing Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Finally got through! Keep trying on the 01271 and you will get through. You may be listening to a dial tone for about 20 mins but they pick up and a nice lady at the other end gives you a ticket! See you there. OOO
.comsaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I thought you could only get one ticket ? One ticket per name on the database as it's general sale from today - as long as you are on the database.
Foxstone Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 I thought you could only get one ticket ? You can link your friends/family on your own database account provided their name is also on same database...
raucebysaint Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 keep hanging in there.. when / if you are lucky enough to get through the music you are put on hold with a phone ringing, had to wait a further 22 minutes until this was answered, but got my 2 tickets so i don't care anymore.. Only a few left in Blocks 532 - 537
Saintmike666 Posted 10 March, 2010 Posted 10 March, 2010 Stayed up :smt015 Thing is I'm still getting the engaged tone..missed the boat on this one I feel. Honestly mate, keep trying. I was told 1500 tickets left 20 minutes a go. But a friend has just got his tickets, and he was told there was 2600 left as of 09.55am!! I'm not so sure anyone knows how many's left!!
