I think the higher management of the band have to take a long look at themselves over this.

At least we can all console ourselves with our nice 10C tshirts!

Just a suggestion, but why doesn't the band go back to the way we used to get tickets? Actually go to the venue, or a specified shop and purchase them there. As 10C members we can get a code or some such thing which allows us to go a couple of days earlier than everybody else, and means fans in the specific country get first option too. I've been going to shows for years and always used to manage to get tickets until the introduction of the internet. Now people and bands alike are just willing to rip off the fans desperate to see and hear the music they love. One other thing, surely the bands in conjunction with eBay and all those middlemen sites can get rid of the hugely inflated prices and prevent the poor average joe who wants to see them getting ripped off. Or do they truly not give a crap about the 'proper' fans.
Disappointed, thought these guys were slightly different, guess it really does just boil down to money at the end of the day.

I'm really sorry to everyone who got screwed out of getting 10C tix.

However, I am curious to hear from those who did get tickets.

(I got in, waited in an online 'que' and had my tickets by about 7:20--I live in Istanbul, so I am GMT+2.
I had NO problem at all, once I finally could get into the Crowdsurge's system...one pair for Berlin)

SO, this isn't trying to rile anybody up, but for those who did get tix--are we all good?

BTW, I just looked at a few of the online outlets and tickets seem to be pretty easy to buy right now...

I managed to get 2 standing tix for manchester after about 45 mins, but i did have 2 laptops on the go and just kept refreshing the both. i've checked, and double checked by crowdsurge account and the tix are there and monies have left my account, so hopefully i can relax now...

feel terrible for all the guys that tried and tried to no avail. :(

Say sorry 10c.

A big percentage of people are pissed off more regarding your arrogance than the deed/incompetence itself.

Just. Say. Sorry.

+1. We have to respect them but its clear as daylight that the powers that be in 10C don't respect us.

I got my tickets this morning and obviously I'm delighted now but the whole fiasco of this week leaves a bad taste.

I got seated tickets for Manchester in less than a minute. My first credit card was declined, and I had the leisure to pay with a second one. The only explanation I have was Chrome and the fact that I only had one pair, so it took me less time and the charge on my card was not too high. And the fact that I had good karma after multiple days spending 4+ hours in anguish in front of a computer hitting refresh in the last 5 years. Yes, sabotages of the 10C purchase system date back at least five years :roll:

If you're worried, save your receipt that clearly states you have the tickets. If you don't have it in your email, go to your crowdsurge account (www.crowdsurge.com) and log in with the username and password from Ten C and screenshot or PDF those. I have multiple confirmations of these. Not taking any changes. Also called my cc to triple check the payment went through.

I'm not even mad anymore. It's just really upsetting to see this happen again and again.

The worst thing about this for me is that I've disappointed my wife. We were going to hit 3 shows this summer for our 5th wedding anniversary. I proposed to her the night before a Pearl Jam show we went to in Hawaii and I took her to her first show in 2003. Their music is a huge part of our lives and it would have been a really special experience to get away with the woman I love for a week without our two young children and just have a good time.

The pre-sale was a mess and I got shut out completely. We're no longer going to Europe as we couldn't secure 10c tickets for the shows that agreed with our travels.

Hopefully they tour in June/July of 2017. It would make a great 10 year anniversary gift, I guess.

i have another theory on the dysfunction:

with the track history 10C have on ticket sales - I am speculating many members login on multiple computers/browsers ... so, although there are only x members looking for tickets ... that number is actually 2 -3 times that because of the multiple sessions ... i recall hearing that crowdsurge wasn't as seamless as some would hope in previous sales with users who have used them before ...

anyhoo - just a theory ...

big mick

Please? Somebody help me? What links or sites have you been using?

Gern Blansten

I wish I could say I was participating because that would mean I would be attempting to buy tickets to see PJ but as a bystander.....this sucks

Get your act together please
