U2 Presale Question

edited October 2010 in Other Music
Just seeing if anyone here has had any experience with the U2 ticket pre-sales. I was wondering if two people from the same billing address can each have a U2 account with presale code and purchase tickets? The policy on their website is a bit vague and says that "some" tickets were canceled on the Vertigo tour in this scenario. Thanks for the insight!

    Yes.

    This is what it says on the FAQ of their site, "For VERTIGO some ticket orders were canceled due to ticket orders having the same billing address. As far as I am aware, that has not changed (yes I asked).

    I have no problem paying $50 for a membership and then just dividing it up between the people I'm getting the tickets with, I just don't want to go to this trouble and then have the order canceled and be out the $50.

    Yeah it would be nice if they would say either you can or you can't. I got tickets but another person in the same house wants to order some too. I just don't want one or both of the orders to get canceled.

    Yes. My girlfriend and I are both members, have the same address and have used our presale codes to buy tickets for the 360 tour.
