    congratulations on tickets...
    I have to say I do enjoy the irony that this thread originally started with one of the "fraudulent" reproductions of the Wii PArty Event that Nintnedo are moaning about!!!!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    This is so frustrating. I got the email inviting me as a club member and entered the competition about 1pm but was too late. So looks like if it had been organised properly, I would've been able to treat the kids :(

    Hmmm once nintendo screened out the non-members they must have added the failed applicants who applied after all tickets gone but who did fit the membership criteria. So would have expected you to get a later ticket.

    But don't give up start moaning !!!! email your story to [EMAIL="enquiries@wiipartyevent.co.uk"]enquiries@wiipartyevent.co.uk[/EMAIL] with suitable title in capitals
  • Entered the extra 500 ticket thing yesterday.. no reply. Anyone else not got a reply yet? I'm guessing I didn't get the tickets (I entered at about 5:00pm yesterday).

    Did you apply before and have your ticket retracted and then did you get an email from nintendo inviting you to apply... the website did say they would check that the application originated from one of their emails.

    My sister had her ticket retracted but hasn't bothered complaining and hasn't had any emails inviting her to reapply!!!
  • Ah... no I didn't apply before so I guess thats why. I do have an account with Nintendo though. Oh well I thought it was worth a try!
  • received a mail today at 12.25 confirming i have tickets. not sure if this is from the extra 500, or because i sent them 2 mails yesterday explaining i would be taking them to the small claims courts for my losses (detailing my club membership details, after receiving a mail from them saying i did not have tickets as i was not a member).

    only problem now is they say they are being sent 1st class today and will arrive by friday, which is cutting it a bit late. we are due to travel down on friday afternoon so if they dont arrive friday morning i will still be asking them for compensation as we have to cancel our hotel by midnight tonight or its zero refund.

    you would of thought after all these problems, they would send all tickets recorded delivery, as when some of them dont arrive in time, some of us are going to be disapointed all over again.

    we will all feel like we've been on a rollercoaster before we've even got to chessington :)

    i had my ticket retracted, then i had the email later saying there was 500 tickets to be won, so i entered that and today i got an email saying my tickets will be here by tomorrow, and i didnt even send a complaint letter
  • nothing back so i'm guessing my family, dipped out on getting any of the 500 tickets, :(

    I'm a member of the Nintendo club, and i never got offered tickets even though i applied fairly early, so they obviously had a glitch, but it is rather unfair if they promise tickets and then don't honour them! Hope everyone gets sorted and you post some pics for those of us who aren't going ;)
