Free or Half Price Classical Concert Tickets

Special Offer Tickets for the English Classical Players Orchestra, The Colosseum, Watford.
I received this info recently from their email:
Despite the great sales success we still have some seats left and every unsold seat is a wasted musical opportunity. We want to share every concert with as many people as possible so we are making a special offer for online sales to anyone reading this news update: tickets for the remaining concerts at the supersaver price of just £10.00 or all three for £20.00.

To access this offer go to go to [URL="mhtml:!!1BB351D2-CE67-47F7-81BC-33374C1789A9}mid://00002764/!x-usc:http://www.watfordconcerts.com/offers"]www.watfordconcerts.com/offers[/URL] and login using username spring and password offer. You are welcome to send details of this offer to anyone who might enjoy our concerts.
There is a booking charge of £2.00 (per order, not per seat).

The links on here do not seem to work. Highlight the link text, right-click Copy (not Copy Shortcut) and paste it in to the address bar.
Better still, if you are in full-time education or unwaged and under 25 there are FREE tickets available, thanks to a generous sponsorship deal by the John Lewis Partnership.

An update about the English Classical Players concerts in Watford:
If you require free under-25 tickets (conditions apply) do not use the online booking service. Just email [URL="mhtml:!!1BB351D2-CE67-47F7-81BC-33374C1789A9}mid://00003264/!x-usc:mailto:info@watfordconcerts.com"]info@watfordconcerts.com[/URL] directly with your request.
This means that if you are buying the Spring Offer Supersaver tickets and bringing children (for example) you need to apply for them separately. Tell them this when you email to make sure you are seated together!
On the shopping cart I noticed that the booking fee is called "postage and packing", even though tickets are collected at the door. Obviously their new shopping cart needs tuning up! The fee is actually to pay for the card payment services.
