Can anyone remember.

Can you deliver to an alternative address on checkout - or is it only to the logged in card details?

I'm away the week before, so wanted to get it delivered elsewhere as a first option - failing that have to do collection.

Ta.

Get your account linked to a friend's account and your ticket can be bought by them (allocated in your name) and delivered to your friend's address. Your friend doesn't necessarily need to have sufficient credits, or intend to go, as it's you who they're buying one for and not themselves.

Ta for the update - my mate will have to have them posted to him then someone else bringing them for me so should be fine now.

No queue yet? We just expecting 20k people to log in at 8:15am, buy a ticket, and be on their way to work by 8:30am?

AttaRed · « **Reply #1522 on:** July 22, 2019, 07:20:45 am »

Queue in place now

I was thinking, most season ticket holders haven't taken part in sales like this.

That is absolutely right. I got my first season-ticket in 1973 and I don't remember ever before having to compete with hundreds maybe thousands of others like this.

V true. I remember for Madrid having to talk my mate through what to do for his qualifying ST. Think he thought I was from another planet.
Same for this one - think he thinks he's going to do it on his phone whilst out and about!

I've tried to talk other people through it and it's a nightmare.

They always tend to shut the site off later for "smaller" sales (so to speak).

Helping a friend out this AM who's on a flight. I'm assuming today is a guaranteed sale based on there being further criteria?

Frankly I wish I just went to the gym instead!

Was the queue a bit slow opening for anyone else? Fee like I was refreshing for 15-20 seconds after the bloody clock hit 8.15

does the refreshing approach work?

dobbouk · « **Reply #1539 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:21:36 am »

Got straight in!

The only good thing about this sale is that it gives ST Holders an insight into the joys of the sales for members 3-4 times a season. !!

Me too. Spent a minute in pure disbelief that I'd got in.

Danny Boy · « **Reply #1543 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:27:31 am »

Telling me 8 minutes but I've been queuing for 11 already!

cjc9020801Beverly Hills · « **Reply #1544 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:27:56 am »

Not moved from less than an hour

RainbowFlick · « **Reply #1545 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:30:32 am »

sorted the one I needed to sort. Fingers crossed I can get one in a later sale for myself. Looks fairly OK availability right now.

AttaRed · « **Reply #1546 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:30:45 am »

Got in after 3 minutes and bought the ticket, but I wanted the ticket posted and it says collection in person, is three a way of getting this changed so they can be sent to my address? Have checked the email and it has only charged me for the ticket, so guessing there isn't a way of changing it now and paying the additional postage

dudleyred · « **Reply #1547 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:33:38 am »

This is dropping then I guess

There’s about 34,000 eligible today but loads got straight in

We’ll know later on I suppose

Welshred · « **Reply #1548 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:33:41 am »

Only slim chance is call them but suspect they’ll say no

RainbowFlick · « **Reply #1550 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:35:00 am »

Fuck, just realised I must have glazed over the postage / collection option

red annie · « **Reply #1551 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:36:13 am »

Still over an hour for me. 😡

Danny Boy · « **Reply #1552 on:** July 22, 2019, 08:36:16 am »

Finally got in after about 20 mins of queuing, first row in 505. Very pleased.

Watch out . . we wanted 5 together, selling details said max 8, but looks like it's set at max 4.

Had to do 3 and then go back in again to get the other 2, and got charged another lot of postage of course.

Got in after 5 minutes. Put 3 cat 1 tickets in the basket only to find out it's the adult/junior section. Cleared the basket and added 3 more in a different section. It's now telling me I have either already purchased or have more than 4 in the basket - but checked purchase history and nothing (not surprised as didn't actually checkout first time) Also definitely only 3 in the basket. Cleared basket again and tried a few times but same warning.

Aaaaargghhhh!!!!
