    By the way, if you're planning to use the tube to get to Wembley this weekend....

    Metropolitan and Jubilee lines are suspended, although Bakerloo line to Wembley Central should be working Saturday.

    well after applying and being told I had tickets then being asked to reconfirm and being told I had tickets I now have an email saying I have no tickets, after already booking expensive trains to london for everyone, this takes the !!!! just a little, so yeah will be using the session tickts here.

    The same's happened to me for the Manchester event. What makes it even worse is originally I requested 4 tickets but a couple of my friends wouldn't have been able to get there on the day, so when I was asked to confirm I put that I only needed 2 now and I still get rejected. :mad:

    We got a no as well. And so did my sister for the Manchester one. She was ment to be taking her 11 year old son and 2 of his school friends as a birthday day out. He is absolutely gutted and now she has got to explain to the other boys parents that they can not go either.

    I would really appreciate it if any one who has genuine tickets for Manchester and is unable to make it or has a spare ticket, that you could kindly pass the tickets this way. Not for my self but for my sister and my nephew.

    Bu thank you again to the poster, this was a good paste. You can't win them all hey lol !
  • hi everyone who got the yes-then-no mails. i did too and then i managed to catch the 2 pdfs that were kindly posted on this discussion and printed out the one for the 12.30pm - 3pm session in london. my partner went with 4 friends and he called a while ago to say that they let him in! it was a risk that paid of. so may be it's worth going for the manchester one (london's over in a couple of hours) if you can get your hands on the pdf tickets from somewhere and take a printout of the mail that said you got in. obv act clueless about the ''reject mail''?? hth xx
  • i also got the you win and now you dont e-mail...very frustrating ^^

    Frankly, if you didn't get a ticket, you didn't miss much today! I reckon there were more security staff than the visitors! It was a bit of a let down to be honest, you'll have more fun going round the gadget shops on Tottenham Court Road... oh well, some you win...

    That's weird, I asked two different people and they both told me it was £15! It just wasn't my day I guess...

    Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any spare tickets for Manchester on Saturday that they would kindly pass this way. I got the you have got and then you have not got tickets and my sister did too as she applied the same time as her son is a really big Man United fan and gadget fan. She had already asked 2 of his friends as a birthday treat as she, the same as me believed we had already been confirmed that we were receiving the tickets. I am not worried about myself, but I would really like to try and get some tickets so she can still take her son and his two friends for his birthday. They have already paid for a hotel for the friday evening to which is none refunadable as thanks to a friend she got through friends and family rates. Thank you. Mand x
  • Hey all,

    After having been told I could have tickets, then told I couldn't, they have now emailed me saying I can have some. They say the show has been split into 3 sessions now, the tickets I have are from 11:30am to 1:30pm this saturday.

    I can't go to it anymore though so if anyone wants the tickets, here's the link -

    They don't have my name on or anything so it would probably be possible for anyone to use them. They can probably be used by more than one set of 4 too, but i'm not entirely sure.

    Maybe they sent them me because I sent an angry email to them when I was rejected tickets after being given them originally :D
