    It's not a presale, it's a separate allocation of tickets reserved for 3 customers.

    They'll have a % designated for them, the rest will be general sale.

    Up to you which you think you have a better chance of getting!

    Three has an allocated lot that cannot be purchased without a code on initial general sale.

    ***Code gone***



    Three presale code here for anyone who wants it. Send me a PM.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭budgemook


    Don't you need to be a 3 customer to use the code?

    How does the 3 presale work exactly?
    Do you have to be a 3 customer?

    I'm not a Three customer and don't have a code, but was talking to my mate who is and here's what we gathered:

    Three send you a unique code and a link to a page on their site (probably the same page for everyone). Tickets will be on sale this Friday at 9 with all the rest. It looks like there'll be a special pool of tickets for Three customers, separate from the Ticketmaster ones.

    It doesn't look like you need to be a Three customer but I could be wrong. I was wrong already once today :D

    Getting no where with receiving a code myself at the moment. They don't run out or anything so just try again later if you're like me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,583 ✭✭✭Swashbuckler


    I've given my 3 code away numerous times for various sales. You just use the code on Friday. You don't need to be a 3 customer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,723 ✭✭✭ahlookit


    Is there anything on the three presale link indicating ticketmaster prices ?

    Your code for Radiohead is <snip>. Still want tickets? Make sure you go to http://plus.three.ie/gig/details/519?utm_source=PRESALESMS&utm_campaign=RADIO&utm_medium=SMS at 9am on Nov 4th. Terms at three.ie/plus Opt out reply NOMUSIC
    So I don't know if you need to login on that link on Friday.

    That link will just bring you to Ticketmaster presale option. No login or anything.

    I have a 3 presale code but don't need it as I got tickets this morning. pm me if anyone wants it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 516 ✭✭✭wong


    I just pmed you Billy. Would love a code if someone has one.

    Been trying the Three website trying to get one for about a half hour now but no luck.
    Their servers seem to be swamped.

    *Edit* Seems someone got there before me to get the code off Billy so if anyone has a code that they aren't using, I'd be forever grateful if they would send it to me!


  • Posts: 1,895 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I have a code my brother gave me that I no longer need, PM me if interested!

    Edit: Gone! :)

    Also, the event listing is now on the TM website and lists the ticket price range as €61.45 - €92.50, so if the higher end includes standing then the pre sale tickets aren't looking so bad now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92,394 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Thom better have at least 15 costume changes and some serious pyrotechnics to justify my €107 face value standing ticket :D

    Is that the dearest :eek:

    Do you think a 2nd date will be added?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 516 ✭✭✭wong


    Wait. How on earth are these Three tickets pre sale if they go on sale the exact same time as regular release?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 674 ✭✭✭carnie


    Ffs.. I just received a text from 3 saying "Thanks for your text. For security reasons, you can only receive your unique code for this event once."

    But yet I haven't received a code.

    Heh was just about to post this

    I went on the live chat and they said there's heavy traffic on the site/app and to try again in half an hour

    Sure I've only been trying again since 13:00


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,174 ✭✭✭notahappycamper


    Do you have to be a 3 customer to use a code i.e. I got a code but am not a 3 customer but the link sent with the code brings me to a 3 login screen. I thought it would bring me to a Ticketmaster site?

    Ticket allocation assigned to 3 presale.

    three have a seperate allocation for customers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 516 ✭✭✭wong

    But they aren't PRE sale when they are released at the same time.

    With the way the Three servers behaved today. There isn't a chance I'm going to use my code to sign in for Three's smaller allotment of tickets when the regular release of tickets happens at the same time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 440 ✭✭sabrewulf


    Here's the link for the three promo sale (code needed), but it might be the same as for general public sale:

    http://www.ticketmaster.ie/radiohead-dublin-06-20-2017/event/18005162A8045D1A?artistid=945173&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=60&did=3dublin

    Tickets will be on sale from 9am, Nov 4th (for both: three promo and general public)

    Why would you not do both?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,421 ✭✭✭✭MisterAnarchy


    Its utter nonsense having the 3 presale/postsale at the same time as the general sale as the site will be swamped with traffic .

    I'm not sure why it took Ticketmaster so long to put up an event page either ,really poor business .
