Any idea how fast they're selling/when they sold out last year? Although I suspect they'll sell faster now Beirut have confirmed... Do I buy a ticket now and hope I can persuade people to go, or risk missing out because of people being rubbish?

The tickets are posted out by mail gizem. They all go out at roughly the same time, not straight away when you order them, but in plenty of time for the festival.

I can't remember when I bought mine last year...
It's whether I buy one now and possibly end up going on my own, or wait for people to make up their minds and possibly end up not going.
I've already gone with the buying a ticket and hoping for people not to be rubbish for end of the road, I'm not sure I fancy two festivals on my own, but I suppose I could always bring my knitting and some books!

my payment isn't accepted definitaly enough money on my bankaccount and the data I gave was ok gave in my cardnumber and expirydate only thing I didn't give up was a security code (is supposed to be on the back of your card, but only phone numbers there)

The security code that websites usually ask for when you buy something online is the last three digits of the number printed across your signature strip. If your card doesn't have a security code, you might have to try using a different one.

Have already paid online with my bankcard but only in belgium, whole other method, you'll be transfered to website of the bank to arrange the payment. Guess there'll be no other way that to get myself a credit card

Judging by your messages here, you would be far more fluent than many more 'local' callers to Ticketline. If you want a credit card you're welcome to one of the many I'm lumbered with. You might not like the large balances already on them though You're luck to have lasted so long without one, but they are a necessary evil of modern life. Shouldn't cost you anything if you don't use them to borrow money?

Credit cards are always bad unless you always pay off the full balance every month. Do anything else and they gradually creep up and throttle you.

Do anything else and they gradually creep up and throttle you. got a credit card today and bought a ticket don't really like them either, that's why I'm for now only using it to buy the ticket and in august, september and october, I'll be using it to pay for hostels in Wales (when I want a change from sleeping in a tent) and to buy stuff I really need, but definately will be keeping track of my spendings, I'll be making sure I can pay of each month

Anybody actually physically received their tickets yet? Not had mine - when should I start fretting?

Didn't get ours until mid-July last year. That sounds about right for me too for last year. In fact, I've just searched through my old emails and I sent one on July 20th last year saying that my ticket had just arrived.
