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

Anyone else still waiting for confirmation email?

Still waiting here about 90 mins later now

EH121990 · 08/09/2024 08:54

Just got mine now

Yes me.

Donna1001 · 08/09/2024 08:56

Yes, both my husband & I have got the ballot email so we’ve both applied. Only if we both get codes will we buy tickets though as there are 4 of us.

no confirmation email yet though. I only did it an hour ago though.

Beyond selfish. So you already have tickets but thought you’d try and get more even though it’s supposed to be for people who didn’t get tickets the first time

Come off it. It’s called a lottery for a reason.

Snackpocket · 08/09/2024 09:01

No email for me and I was registered before with 2 email addresses. I absolutely cannot complain though as we have tickets for Heaton park my husband got in the presale so feel very lucky!

But we’d rather have Wembley and one of the new dates is on my husbands birthday. If we’d have got tickets to that we’d have sold the Manchester tickets to my cousin.

ItsMintUpNorth · 08/09/2024 09:02

Just got confirmation email after about an hour and a half.

Yes. I found the registration form a bit unsatisfactory though. I don’t know if I am
signed up now for oasismynet and have had no confirmation email yet. My last page said ‘nearly there’ with terms and conditions. Is that what you had?

Yes I’ve had one. I’ve still not received a confirmation email yet though. I think I got the bot question right hopefully. I keep checking to see if I get confirmation but nothing so far.

Glitterybee · 08/09/2024 09:03

No 😭

Josephina7470 · 08/09/2024 09:04

ImNotTheMatix · 08/09/2024 08:55

Yes me.

I am still waiting too.

Jobs4kids · 08/09/2024 09:05

Got the email after midnight, registered & got the confirmation by return. Last time it took about 12 hours. Think it's very random!

TokyoSushi · 08/09/2024 09:06

Good grief, it's not 'beyond selfish' 🙄

I queued for about 6 hours, no joy. BIL got some tkts in the presale, luckily we're going with him. Now I've got a place in the ballot (I didn't ask for it) if I could get x2 more tickets, I could transfer them to friends, who also desperately wanted to go but didn't get a tkt either.

Don't panic folks. I'm not going to go twice, or sell them for a fortune on Viagogo or whatever, as I understand it they'd be cancelled anyway!

If I didn't do anything with the invite, it doesn't mean that it would be reallocated to somebody else would they get it. So that really would be a waste.

So perhaps take your 'beyond selfish' and reframe it as somebody trying to do a nice thing. It might/probably won't go any further anyway!

FunkyMonks · 08/09/2024 09:07

Yep got it as well

Josephina7470 · 08/09/2024 09:07

Josephina7470 · 08/09/2024 09:04

I am still waiting too.

Mine has literally just come though! It took around an hour and a half.

Bluebellsinthewind · 08/09/2024 09:08

Not long woken up and was surprised to see, I had the email. I've filled it in and the last page said, nearly there with the terms and conditions.

Here we go again 🤣

I live in the Highlands. If I am lucky enough to get tickets for Wembley, will cost us a fortune 🤣

giespiece · 08/09/2024 09:08

Yes, and had the confirmation email that I've been entered into the ballot

WomanOfSteel · 08/09/2024 09:08

ImNotTheMatix · 08/09/2024 08:55

Yes me.

And me.

Didimum · 08/09/2024 09:09

The confirmation emails can take a really long time, so no one should fret.

In order to have been invited to the ballot, you had to be logged into Ticketmaster for the main sale and have queued for a specific Wembley date – they aren’t going out to everyone who logged into queue in general and it isn’t connected to the pre-sale date.

Bobbybobbins · 08/09/2024 09:10

My DH is considering buying tickets on viagogo - would these definitely be likely to be cancelled? Is that what happened with Taylor Swift?

No it's for people who queued for any date, I only queued for Manchester and have had the email overnight.

I was in the queue for Manchester. 🙂

Don't do it, or at least definitely not yet, they'll likely be cancelled.

Twickets is your best bet, but not until nearer the time.

Bluebellsinthewind · 08/09/2024 09:12

@Didimum it's for any venue. I tried to get tickets for Edinburgh last weekend.

Sorry typo. I meant to say for specific dates – not specific Wembley date.

holidaysoonplease · 08/09/2024 09:17

Its been about 90 mins since I filled out the ballot entry, not had a confirmation email, am getting twitchy!! Now worried that I answered the question wrong!
