    Got 2 weekend and campervan ticket at 9.09am.

    Some rip-off charging €18 for delivery of a tiny piece of card by DHL for the campervan ticket!

    That was ghoulish. Codes worked but by the time the circle of doom had stopped spinning (at 9.23) all options were gone.

    Had to go for Family Camping at 210 Euro.

    Relieved!

    for people trying to get installment with a loyalty code -try paying all up front (annoying I know) but worked for me last year after it said none available

    This was how I got a ticket. They've clearly load balanced installment vs full price.

    Oh that was nervey , entered my loyalty code and after about 12 minutes the 2 tickets came up a full price , i defo entered the code right and it was accepted . I just bought them anyway as was too nervous to go back and try again in case I got none . Then I redid it , tried the code again and got 2 discounted ones . Not to worry , my mate will buy the dearer ones , never has his **** organised
    Happy days roll on next year

    Yesterday got the "you don't qualify" email and then last night got another email "eh we made a c*ck up, you have a code for 2 or less now".
    Took 20 mins but got them.
    Wonder how many tickets go on sale today?

    This happened to me when i got pink moon for 2018 the site crashed so i refreshed the site once or twice, then got a call from Pink Moon later that day saying there was an issue and that i had booked 3 tents ha. Luckily i had only gotten charged for one and they removed the 2 tents from my order

    nearly caught me too, because of the slow load of the website when you click half now it doesn't even register unless you left it for a short while.

    I only figured this out when i got to the payment screen and backtracked.

    To my horror the site started to crash but got there in the end.

    After 3 lengthy waits and getting 'we cant find the tickets youre lookong for' I tried once more for my 3 x loyalty instslment plan.

    Success at 9.33

    Unlikely to be using them though but we live in hope.

    Getting the message cannot find your tickets you searched for in the instalment plan. Anyone else getting this for these types of tickets?

    Sorted by 9.15

    2 x Loyalty (3 plus) me and the real larkie
    1 x campervan
    2 x installment (I swore I'd never bring the kids but its for the twin daughters for their 18th Bday) - I suppose its not really cbringing the Kids when they wont even be with us in the Campervan area they'll be with the great unwashed

    pretty painless TBH

    Campervan tickets have an 18€ delivery charge (DHL) - no other option.

    Ended up costing €110 for a campervan ticket!

    That is some rip-off!

    Why can't I just print the bloody thing for free myself!
    TM are already charging their fee so surely they can produce a PDF that I can just print!

    Real goughing of the highest order!

    Apologies, I didn't realise it was for the campervan tickets. That's a bit much in fairness.

    Do the kiosks have an allocation? I would imagine the online sales could sell out by the time 10-20 sales are completed at a kiosk.

    Saying low availability for Family but when I checked, there were no tickets?
    Always worth trying as people end up getting kicked out at payment page or verify page and those tickets go back in the mix.
    How do you get Pink Moon tickets?

    They won't do PDF's due to the risk of forgeries.
    We all complain about T/M charges but we all pay them and that's why they charge them even if they are excessive.
    Just more profit for T/M.
    If there's say 20,000 (guess) tickets today, that's roughly €4 million for a year.
    Just a pity they don't get any interest on it!
