Has anyone else got the email being invited to the ballot for the new dates?

Which queue were you in? I was in the first queue for about seven hours, then when I got to the front of that it took me to tickermaster website and I then had to pick the date I wanted and then entered a second queue. It’s only if you were in this second queue Ticketmaster would have definitely known who you were as weren’t required to log in for first queue

I was logged in and I went all the way to ticket window where it did not let me buy despite showing there were some tickets available. The stadium image was all grey.

I had that several times too

Clairos15 · 08/09/2024 13:36

Yes I got one and had the same. I did it twice as wasn't sure I had completed it. Hoping it's OK!

Isitovernow123 · 08/09/2024 13:37

I got it

Tomorrowisyesterday · 08/09/2024 13:38

I got the ballot email today, no confirmation yet. I don't want tickets for London though, we wanted Scotland and spent 7 hours on Saturday queueing for them, but it crashed at the point of checking out.

It's only for Wembley

Tomorrowisyesterday · 08/09/2024 13:43

Oh thanks, I know it's Wembley though - just thinking might have to travel or even find a way to sell or swap them. Ds would be happier with one in London than none at all.

Hi I had the same thing..'nearly there" and no confirmation so I thought I would sign up here, but starting to think its a scam

wonderstuff · 08/09/2024 13:56

Just got the email to confirm ballot entry, completed the initial form at about 9am this morning.

Not a scam. It takes hours to get the confirmation.

MaddieElla · 08/09/2024 14:22

Yes I've just got my confirmation email and it's once you click on that that you get the "you're confirmed" message.

Wasn't this stressed when I moved house.

Itisjustmyopinion · 08/09/2024 14:28

You would think it would have been easier just to send codes out to the people who registered but didn’t get a code for the pre sale. “They” - whoever that is (Ticketmaster, Live Nation, Oasis 🤷‍♀️) - already had everyone’s details

twilightermummy · 08/09/2024 14:35

I've still not received a confirmation email,

  • 4 hours since I filled out the form 😞

Took 5hrs for someone here

twilightermummy · 08/09/2024 14:44

That's good to know. Ridiculous that we're not even at the stage where were guaranteed tickets yet haha.

Filltheglass · 08/09/2024 15:01

I got the email at 02:50 this morning, didn't see it till half 9, entered the form, just checked my email now and i got a confirmation sent at 14:10, so just over 4 hours to get confirmation!

DoYouReally · 08/09/2024 15:03

I got one but I'm in Ireland so it's pretty pointless. The tickets are expensive enough without flights & hotels as well.

Tbh, the whole pricing issue has been such a piss take that it's put me off it.

Rhayader · 08/09/2024 15:03

Just got my “confirmation” email 7-8 hours after I submitted my entry.

I got the email from Oasismynet but the registration involves accepting marketing emails AND marketing texts which may charge you (as stated on the tick box)

There is no option to proceed without accepting both!

Much as I'd like to go, I'm not being forced into accepting marketing junk and being charged for texts (at an unknown rate) and it's frankly unacceptable.

I wonder how much more pension pot money the Gallaghers are getting by this latest method of ticket purchasing.

I'm done with it!

so…they want to charge you when they send you a message? What fresh madness is this?

btw I’m not in this game but I hope those who missed out get a chance. It sounds like it’s been a nightmare and to be chucked out of a long queue is awful.

I don’t even care for Oasis in a major way, but can’t help but feel need to be part of the zeitgeist 🤣

Didimum · 08/09/2024 16:07

I’m not sure I feel much sympathy for people complaining about ‘queuing’. You sat there with your laptop open, which is not much of a hardship. I queued on my phone and just got on with my day and just let it run while I went out. I don’t think any ‘inconvenience’ of virtual queuing mean people should be compensated with anything special.

People queuing in person for big events years ago would camp on the streets for hours for tickets.

IWasHittingMyMarks · 08/09/2024 17:00

My confirmation came about 4 hours after we registered via the site.

I'm just hoping they don't do surge pricing again so I can afford to buy 2 tix for my boys. That's it. That's all I want.

ItsMintUpNorth · 08/09/2024 07:55

I'm sure the original statement said sales would be staggered this time, so I'm wondering whether the emails being 'by Friday 13th' means some people might get them sooner and have an earlier sale date if that makes sense?

There is no 'main' sale this time though, it's only for people that get a code from the ballot.

And it's still based on first come first served too so gotta make sure we pick our email up if selected straight away .X

Raddys421 · 09/09/2024 08:08

We got 6 tickets on the Saturday and both got the ballot email too so hopefully get another 4! Good luck everyone!
