it's the first time I am using MK.com for tickets

I got an email saying it's ok, but when I click on the link I have the "order has timed out" message
when I try to login, its says "wrong login", and when I try to reset my pasword, it says that my email is not found  :smack
Your first time. My last time...

Will you say the same when you will finally get your first row tix?

Keep cool and relax, et arrétez gémir c'est tellement français laissons pour une fois cette tâche aux autres.

So finally I was able to buy two tickets to Lisbon, 30 April in a couple of attempts. Great system, lol. I don't even know which seats I bought.

J'ai passé l'âge de me faire emmerder par de l'amateurisme. Surtout quand je paye 100€ le billet et que j'en prends 10... Je me suis fait jeter de Paris, qui aurait pu être le seul auquel je puisse aller ! D'habitude en s'y prenant bien on pouvait avoir le premier rang. Là, que va-t-il rester lundi ? Et pour les autres, pour l'instant on me dit rang A-P ! Donc premier rang je le croirai quand je le verrai...

It seems that they have the list names of the faithful fans and that they rejected their (our) request...

For myself:
Paris and Anvers were rejected....
Lyon, Saint Julien, and Nimes were accepted...

I am very disappointed of this fu**ing system, so I give up for Nîmes... There fees are crazy...
If I was sure to have at least a 1st to 5th row, I would say okay okay... lets try... but I don't want to risk a 10th or 20th or in the corridor ticket...
So I am not only monaning, but I am complaining...
Is it a punishement???  For the supposed "last" tour... thanks for the good memory.... I wouldn't have imagined such crap...

Front row tickets? I don't think anyone will get those this time. Mine are half way down the O2, London....

Thank you Ingrid for trying to fix this...

Few points that might help:

- FA system caused many fans (and "not fans") to put multiple venues, even if they're not sure they'll attend. This results in over the top demand, which some of it is actually "fake"/not real

- The FACT that the hard core of MK fans are out, says it all. This proves that the method is wrong. I also believe that many "winners" which are not real fans will resell their tickets. Viagogo will prove that few weeks from now

- The lack of us fans in the front rows will have a very negative impact on the atmosphere of the concerts. PC should be well aware of that.

- One of the main goals should be that the (probable) 4-5 RAH concerts during the beginning of June – will *NOT* be a part of the “FA” system.
I know the RAH dates aren’t confirmed but I’m quite confident that they WILL happen and we need to make sure FA system will not apply to them.

I hope we'll hear something encouraging from PC side (though chances are slim)
Cheers!

Solution:

On Monday they'll add a discount code at the checkout for the regular presale. Discount code AMIT or similar will give a 0.00 discount BUT a prioritised seating.

Whatever discount code that will be is given to Ingrid from PCM. Members of AMIT may get the code from Ingrid (and others that have it, tree style) but only members that have registered before the 22nd of October are eligible.

(PS. Just a suggestion)

I got a reply from support telling me the problem had been resolved 10 minutes after I went to bed ! So I've accessed the link again as soon as I saw the email this morning & paid for my 2 Newcastle tickets. Have to wait & see what the allocation is now. Hopefully the new system will mean I haven't been disadvantaged by the delay in paying.

The FA system was set up because management didn't like the fact others were making extra money on the tickets.
They solved the problem by getting the extra money themselves.
The fact that the ticket prices are so expensive is one thing but the added fees are a complete insult.PCM could control all of this because they chose the venues and agreed to the terms.They could have insisted on a much fairer system but money talks.
The only way this will stop is if we stop supporting these schemes.
Of course this is not easy so difficult choices have to be made.
It'll be a shame missing this tour but I'm sure I'll survive.

Good points!
I can add that we're paying 20% overprices to get something we don't know what it is.
Selling things without explaining what is being sold is almost illegal, and undoubtedly immoral.
