    Got my Hamilton and Toronto codes but won’t use them as I won the lottery for both.
    Same email or two separate emails?
    Same email.
    Oh no that’s not the answer I was looking for.

    Got one for Toronto, I had put St. Louis as an  additional show on my request. Did I have to submit a 2nd request for St. Louis?

    Stinks the code only works for 1 show. I don’t even need a code for the show I put in for since I won 10c seats. Would rather swap my Forum1 code for MSG
    This now seems like a huge flaw in the process. They need to allow a mechanism where members who strike out in the lotto can put in for presale codes for shows they lost. 
    They are 2 completely different things. Neither has anything to do with the other.

    Question.  I won 10c NYC tickets but lost Baltimore.    Now I received a code for NY but not for Baltimore.   So I can’t try for Baltimore tickets tomorrow but I can try to buy tickets I don’t need to try to trade for Baltimore?   I don’t understand...

    Did you submit all shows on one request, or separate VF requests for each?

    Exactly. I put in the show to backup my lottery chances but now I just wanted an MSG code to get my brother on the east coast some tickets. Weird situation they have going on

    It’s not an opinion to disagree on. There is no “process”. One was a fan club presale, the other is a Ticketmaster presale. They do not have anything to do with one another. They aren’t connected in any way. It’s like saying I misses the bus so I should get a free taxi before everyone else in line.

    They are 2 completely different things. Neither has anything to do with the other. 

    Not really, though, since this seems to be mainly for the 10C members who missed out. So, if we got tickets to a show, why give us the chance to buy MORE for that show instead of people who got shut out, and vice versa? There are people who got tickets to MSG who are getting VF codes for MSG. What sense does that make?

    We all spend money on this band.  Be it Live Vaults,  boots and merch.  KO me for the lottery and than waitlist me for my hometown show.  We are troopers.  So be it.  TM is the worst thing to ever happen.  To all that got tickets congrats.  Until the fall.  While some ticket agency gets oodles of tickets and they are lucky if they they know 3 songs from this band.

    I got codes for all 4 Canadian shows, but won the 3 I wanted via 10c. I'm sure this has been asked, and hate to do it....but can I share these so others can use?

    Yes, that’s basically it - except you can’t trade for Baltimore because Baltimore is not trade-for-able. I’m in the same boat. @MickeyMouse this is why the two things are not unrelated.

    Codes are non-transferable. Code and email need to match.

    Oh no that’s not the answer I was looking for.

    You were holding out hope you'd get another email for another show? :(

    For reference, it looks like this for me:

    Dude, Verified Fan is NOT mainly for 10C members who missed out. It is the standard Ticketmaster pre-sale for all major acts to combat scalpers and bots. You're talking about something you know nothing about and it shows. They are as separate as two things can be.

    So I won 10 club tickets for Baltimore and now I got a Baltimore code. I am looking for a pair for MSG. Would be willing to somehow trade, but don’t think we can.

    Got an MSG code. Won the 10c lottery so need to trade for Baltimore (need 3 tix). Can buy and trade tickets. 
    You cannot trade Baltimore tickets. They are non-transferable.

    If the codes are allowed to be shared I'd be more than happy to share mine. I'm just not 100% sure on the rules for the verified presale.
    Can't share, sorry.
