Really hope i get a ticket! Is anyone planning a meetup? Ill be attending on my own so it would be nice to meet up with people. Dont fancy being billy no mates :D

Just found this on Eventim Apollo's FB page, someone asked about the ticket prices:

 

"Eventim Apollo Hi Margaret & Sam, we can confirm that tickets will begin at £75. It's set to be an amazing evening & we hope to see you there."

 

That's more than I've expected :\

I am really excited for this, and I wish all of you who are trying to get tickets the best of luck.

 

I wonder what sort of set they will play, will be really interesting to see.

 

If I heard Christmas Lights again I would die. PLEASE!

New info on gigs and tours:

 

STANDING £82.50 (£75.00) On sale on Thursday, 14 Nov 2013 at 9:00AM

SEATS £82.50 (£75.00) On sale on Thursday, 14 Nov 2013 at 9:00AM

 

So, do you think the standing will be front of stage?

I've checked the event Children in Need and it seems like there is a seated area front of stage and standing only behind them...

overpriced

 

bit much, £75? I appreciate it's for charity but honestly a) it won't be a full blown coldplay immense gig, and b) dynamo, lily allen and rizzle kicks (with 40 minutes of Coldplay maximum) don't warrant £75.

Got to say that is expensive, but I'll still be trying to get tickets on Thursday morning.

 

The booking/transaction fees don't half make me laugh!

 

Hope Coldplay play for a decent length of time like they did two years ago, because let's face it, I'm not overly bothered about the other acts, just Coldplay for me :D.

The block in front of the stage is GA standing for that event.

It says "Doors open: 7:00 PM. Show starts: 7:00 PM."

 

Surely that can't be right?

^Hope everyone knows where their seats are! :laugh3:

I swear if I dont get tickets on Thursday i will just will jump off to the nearest cliff

I will still try and get tickets hopefully.

Fingers crossed for you David

Tomorrow, aaargh!

Good luck to everyone trying to get tickets tomorrow!

 

Will be coming over from Ireland if I'm lucky enough to get tickets.

Could be the best Christmas present ever, very excited :D

Just visited London not even a month ago. There's no way my parents will allow me to fly there again. It sucks not living in the UK :cry:

Can anyone more experienced in buying tickets in the UK help me?

 

If I'm lucky tomorrow, I'll have to pay with a credit card issued in my husband's name. Can I collect the ticket at the venue with his credit card and my ID? We have the same surname, so I hope it's all right, but I want to be sure.

Thanks!

That can be a problem. Send an email to Gigs And Tours and Eventim Apollo, there's still enough time for them to get back to you before tomorrow morning.

Yes, I did write to their customer service already, but the automatic reply was that they will get back within 5 days...

I only have a Maestro and Visa Electron in my name, which are not accepted.

And I don't want to risk international delivery in December...

So, another option is to have the ticket sent to my friend in London, what do you think?

But I'm not sure, if I log in in my name, pay with my husband's card and have it sent to a UK address. Such a mess...

5 days? That's stupid!

You can use your husband's card and email them afterwards. Or choose for homeprint tickets if that option is available. But I guess the best thing you can do is to use your friend's home address even if it sounds complicated.

I didn't see homeprint tickets option on any of the ticket sites, that would be the best :-(

 

Oh god, I hate this pre-sale stress!

I use my maestro card without problems all the time, I don't get why they don't accept it!

One more option, they have gift vouchers, so I could purchase one in advance and then use it. But... if I fail to get the ticket, the voucher is valid for 1 year and cannot be redeemed.

I guess I'll wait till the morning, if they reply.

 

Edit:

problem solved :-)

I think Coldplay make me lose my mind... I wasn't even thinking about trying my Visa Electron, as it usually doesn't work in the UK, but just to be safe, I tried and it works! So everything's cool. I just need to calm down to hit the correct keys tomorrow.

 

And they also replied from eventim, they sent me a template Letter of Authorization, which the cardholder shall sign and it would be fine.

So you can use someone elses card with this letter.

Looks like the seats are gonna be rubbish!

It says "Doors open: 7:00 PM. Show starts: 7:00 PM."

It says 6 PM on the website of Eventim.
