TakeThat tickets
 

where's/who's the best place to book tickets through, in ppls personal experience?

phil you better be getting them for your missus or else !!






:D

9am tomorrow- all go on sale at the same time via the usual places.
No presale irritatingly for this one....

Doesnt matter where you get them from- will be a roadblock wherever.
Get in VERY early or miss out- and that is free advice coming from a 'Ticket Pimp'®(thanks to whoever on here gave me that title- I like it! :D ) who will be onto his dedicated tout hotline at 8:55am ;)

well i missed them 1st time round in the 90's lol

manchester may be your best chance as 8 dates there, so easier to get a ticket

their home town??

Theyre from all over, not just Manchester.

Im struggling with Ticketmaster atm, looks like Ive missed out. Not assed anyway cause theyre not even for me :lol1: I didnt even remember til 9:10 so it was always going to be hard from there on in.

Ticketmaster are an absolute joke (and bunch of wankers). Mainly their sole reason for existence is to dispose of tickets that no-one else wants - ie: the average and bad seats.

Every time there is a big concert release their website goes into meltdown.

If your on the site a couple of minutes before they go on sale you usually dont have a problem, if you turn up 10 minutes after then yes, the website may aswell not even exsist.

Ticketmaster's site is a joke. They should be able to predict and deal with spiky traffic after all these years.

i tried for my missus, was on ticketmaster at about 8 site very quick, 9 oclock when tickets available, I managed to select 2 tickets for manchester the 10th (missus birthday on the 8th so nice pressie for her and I dont need to go out shopping) then waiting in a queue saying it will be within 15 mins then the site crashed and I couldnt get back on. This was at 9.51 when it crashed gave up after that. Also tried ticketline and seetickets.com but no joy with those either. Ahhh well looks like the trafford centre shopping now then..

ha ha tried seetickets.com again and got the last 2 for monday the 10th. trafford centre will have to wait.

They've just added more dates for Manchester.

The missus managed to get 6 via Seetickets.com. Wouldn't waste my time on the ticketmaster site....

Just added more for London, got 4 for Sat 08/12

6 bought - two be used by the missus and her sis, 4 to be sold for monsterous amounts of cold hearted ticket touting megabucks to poor unsuspecting 'real' fans :thumb: :lol1:
Or maybe just given to a couple of my mates and their ladies... Hmmm.... :D

Welcome to the club :thumb:

I got 2 in the end for the wife at about 11:15 for the dome...

unconfirmed reports say they are upto £350 apparently on ebay
maybe sell mine and treat the missus to a holiday instead!

£370 on ebay for 2

a pair in block ff in glasgow going for £470...:eek:

£620 for 2 tickets in Manchester... I wouldn't be surprised if this heads the same way as Kylie and all tickets get pulled from Ebay....

there's a front row pair for Birmingham at £875 :eek2:

What???
No Kylie tickets got pulled from ebay- I know because I sold premium front tickets for several of the shows, including the NYE one.There was no ban on selling them at all.

The only ones that have been banned from listing have been Diana (obvious why), and Live 8 (geldoftwat moaning).

Even if the take that ones get pulled (doubtful), such is the demand that word of mouth will get them sold soon enough. Ive been getting calls and txts all morning from people pestering me for them.

Sky News: Kylie Bid To Block Touts

Ok my bad, she was attempting to have them pulled...

How does Seetickets.com work? I'm guessing its a manual credit card process because they took my payment & address details online but the confirmaiton screen just said something along the lines of sending a confirmation email to me in 3 hours...
Ticketmaster are normally instant because they process your payment online...

Bugger. I got to the stage of paying for tickets and didnt bother, I thought £50 a ticket, they wont go for much more than £80 on ebay and I cant be bothered with the hassle for £30 profit a ticket :( Looks like Ive missed the boat...lol

Seetickets are a pain in the ass
Nowhere near as good as TM usually

If you had the confirmation screen you should have them- takes about 3-4 hours today to send the confirmation mail (mine took 4hrs10). Wont give you your seats straight away either irritatingly- so its pot luck if you get good or crap.
Call them direct on 0115 945 4570 (cut out the menu crap this is direct and straight through to a human ) :)

They process every one MANUALLY (:eek: ) - hence the delay.


Terrible company that I dont like usually for tickets and I use only as a last (or second ;) ) resort
Today was a roadblock and one of the worst sales I have seen for tickets.

I started ringing at 8:55am.
got ecored message saying lines were flooded with calls.. as soon as 9am came could get through, phone said retry, or i got net work busy!!

my sister got some... via some one who knows someone at ticket master.. i think.

she and her friend had tried by phone an the net.. with no joy!!

:(

I got my confirmation from seetickets 4 and a half hours afterwards... Just glad to get the confirmation though :thumb:
Like you say Mr Freak, no news on actual seats so a bit trickier to put up for sale right now, but that's OK. I think friends and family will take my spare 4.
Glad to have them - I dont think I have topped this for Brownie Points from Mrs Abdabz since the proposal :D

There are some tickets currently on ebay standing at £9600 with 48 bids.........................are thay bloody mad....?

Si.
