    6 times for me but every time i got to the checkout bit it said there was nothing in my cart! its been an absolute shambles.

    i took screenshots of them in my cart and emailed crowdsurge saying that i want my tickets. im awaiting a response :?:

    This was pretty much what happened to me. Total fucking joke. Hopefully once they sort it i'll get my tix.

  • It's a heavy joke. You can not do this with the time and illusion of people. After 20 years, presales should be better controlled!
    I tried to pay seven times and...what happened? ...Nothing...Black screen and to "begin the begin" once more time... Grrrr :evil:
    I am very angry... After this stressful day, I think that I will live one week less! :twisted:
  • For the first time I can ever recall the Gods were with me today - got my Amsterdam tickets in 10 mins, 2 refreshes and done. All seems a bit amateurish and shambolic though.
  • I was able to get tickets to all shows but it took me an hour and it is my job to have computer skills ;)

    It is a shame that they can't find a decent provider to do this stuff.

    Dare I say that ticketmaster probably has the infrastructure to handle it ?

  • Really disappointed that things have not worked out today with the pre-sale, hopefully things will get sorted before the general sale starts but can understand everyone's frustrations - especially if it's happened previously! Please let us know asap what's going on - and don't tell me the MEN is sold out already, I'll be livid. :evil:

    Could I hire your talents for Presale II; I more than willing to buy you a few rounds of beer... ;)
  • I've just sent this to CrowdSurge. I don't expect it'll do much good, but it's worth a punt:

    To whom it may concern:
    I was one of the many people who wasted a serious amount of time this evening trying to buy Pearl Jam tickets and failing due to the staggering incompetence of your system. More than a dozen times, I went through the process of trying to check out the tickets that were in my cart, only to be told that they weren't in my cart. After that, every time, I tried to re-add tickets to my cart, I was greeted with a blank screen, or put back into a queue. Every aspect of this is utterly unacceptable.

    The image at the link below shows clearly and definitively that the tickets were in my cart at the time when your system was trying to convince me that they weren't. It also shows the time as 17:11 giving the lie to the assertion that I had exceeded the time left to pay, as the pre-sale had only opened less than that allotted time beforehand. I was therefore prevented from completing my legitimate purchase under your false pretenses. There is, as such, no acceptable reason why I, or the many others in the same position, should not have been able to obtain those tickets.

    It is my assertion that you are under obligation to ensure that I, and anyone else who approaches you with a similar complaint about the appalling service we have received this evening, be allowed the opportunity to complete their legitimate transactions BEFORE you open up another general pre-sale. Anything less than this is to do a further disservice to your customers. I expect to hear from you on this matter as soon as is possible.

  • I feel for you guys that didn't get tickets YET, I was lucky and ended up getting tickets to Amsterdam it took about 45 minutes and about 4,000 refreshes (not lying).

    That's my tip for the future...refresh, if you get a error screen hit refresh. All you gotta do is hit refresh the same time someone ends their transaction and you're in.

    Good luck, hope to see any and all of you in Amsterdam!
  • I remember vividly the hassle and stress getting the Wembley Arena tickets through the 10c website in 2007, and after hearing about how Crowdsurge would provide a far easier and quicker method of buying 10c tickets through the pre-sale, I expected the process to be straightforward. Instead I found myself cursing at my work computer (not it's fault in this instance obviously!) and became increasingly frustrated at servers not responding, Meditation Gurus (WTF are they?!) and general error messages. Eventually phoned my wife as I was going to have to leave the office to head for home as she is out tonight. Have around a half hour drive to my house and didn't want to miss out on potentially getting tickets during the intervening time so she said she would go on the computer at home and try. She must have special powers or something because at her first attempt, she succeeded in getting two tickets for the Manchester gig.
    Incredibly frustrating for the hour or so I spent myself trying to get them, however after reading some of the posts on here, others have spent longer to only end up with the message from Crowdsurge to tell them that due to matters out of their control they have had to take down the pre-sale. Utterly ridiculous. There needs to be a full explanation from Crowdsurge as to how this could have happened. Surely they should have expected the volume of members trying to purchase tickets at one time. One would suggest inexperience on their part. Although if this effort is anything to go by, the chance of them gaining further experience may be limited!

    many ppl on the Euro tour facebook page have claimed that they've spoken to Crowdsurge on the phone and ppl there have confirmed some talks are going on with 10C and pre-sales will be up again tonight UK time.

    I propose this is a bad idea as in central europe it is close to midnight and most of us have to wake up early for work.

    Please 10C consider holding off the pre-sales until everything is ironed out and we have all received adequate notice via email/PM. Please also seriously consider doing it one venue/date at a time to prevent the mad rush. Thanks for listening.
    if I keep holding out,.... will the light shine through?
  • "Shortly" is probably TOMORROW for me...

    ...there goes my chance to see my favorite band on my bday...down the drain :cry:
  • Did they realize that in Europe, where who are trying to buy the tickets live, is night?
    Why start at 9am PST!?!?!!?
    Why all dates at the same time having a site that crashes for thousands of people together connected?
    I suppose crowdsurge.com was necessary to let all that people take the tickets all together... but with these results... why use another site?

    I'm ill, I should sleep now... not wait I don't know how for a mail or something else to buy tickets... and tomorrow I should go to work... all this is unbelievable...

    Refresh refresh refresh... this is because a server hangs... every refresh is a request, and thousands of requests in a while means hangs... damned F5... waiting for the autorefresh is better for everyone... in this way some lucky superF5 guy have the tickets, and a lot of people not...
  • I was also in a queue, then I got through a lot of times and the message appeared that my cart is empty, over and over again.
    I guess I'll try to get GA tickets. I think that shouldn't be a problem.
    I don't care about 10C tickets anymore.

  • Wow what a mess. I managed to get 2 tickets for Manchester after resisting the urge to manually refresh for an hour, only to wake up to read these horror stories. I hope you all manage to get tickets somehow.
  • I got a reply from Crowdsurge, they stated there will be an update on the website and via email by "late afternoon GMT"

  • Hi people
    long to veiwer , first time poster . First off I've always relied on my friend for tix , goodies ect.. who's been in 10c for a long time and other then the last UK arena shows , there's never been a major problem before . One thing that no one has really touched on but the signs were there are, despite the band no longer being MTV darlings or poster boys , over the last few years the band have undergone a 2nd wind and our favourite lil rock n roll band have become fuckin' massive again , seriously .Things like the Reading Festival being show live on the BBC, PJ 20 on BBC4 before my dvd even arrived , Hyde Park on Sky ect... here in the UK converted people who before may have been a bit curious into wanting to actually leave the house and see the band for themselves. How many of you have told your friends, family or whoever, you need to see this band ? Well people took note and I think a lot of people got caught with their pants down on this. I went to Dublin alone in 97 , today I could fill a bus with people who want to see them in action. There are people trying to get tickets who have never tried in the past because the current music seen sucks shit and they want to see one of the true great rock bands and a better set of fans you couldn't wish for. Have faith , they'll sort it and come June I'm sure I will be sitting in a cafe in Amsterdam with one or two of you good people ,sampling the local goodness and all this will be a hazy memory . On a lighter note anyone remember the touts getting a proper kicking at the Astoria ? :lol:

    I reckon if you've seen shows since 1992, you don't need to see any more of them and it'd be only fair to give your tickets to some poor soul who hasn't been able to see the band as many times. ;)
  • No bitching any more they locked everything :shock: it's not fun like this :lol:

    After all the recent random killings in the world, who would joke about that? Maybe he should have said "I will beat you up." I would have been totally fine with that, and wouldn't have even commented.
  • I need a spare 10C ticket for Oslo... and two for Berlin, PLEASE!!!! :( We booked flights already and I fucked it up, couldn't get regular tickets and we forgot to renew memberships... we already have one spare 10C for Oslo and are desperately looking for a second. Anyone? :shock: Please PM me. THANKS!!!
