The pre-sale code is sent by SMS, so when you fill out your phone number do you put the "+" in front of the country code (for example, +55) or do you just type the numbers all together without the "+"?
-
Pre-sale is handled by Ticketmaster UK, so is it possible to collect tickets at the venue? If not, do they mail overseas? Or is print-at-home the only option?
Not sure about the + before the country code. Used verifified twice for U2 in the US and if I remember I didn't have to place the +. Both times got a code. Also received codes for Elton John and again no +.
Usually TM UK will give several delivery options. We'll have to see what the choices are this time. I've used overseas mail previously. Sometimes the tickets arrive before you leave home,.. sometimes not...it all depends on how close you are leaving to the concert date. But not to worry...There has always been a method for contacting TM and arranging for venue pick-up in those instances.

Thank you, that was very helpful!

I did the Verified Fan lottery for Springsteen on Broadway and was lucky enough to get a code...except it arrived when I was under anesthesia in surgery! All ended well, though, as I was able to snag the last available disabled access seat! At least we will be able to find out if we're one of the lucky ones tonight. I'm hoping for Montreal!

You don’t say what show you want to go to in either Canada or U.K.!
Also, Mod, please cancel his duplicate post. Thanks.

Just a heads up - and I'm not sure if this has been posted elsewhere- but 02 customers have a pre-sale for the 02 London date in 2 hours! This has been announced since the dates were, but few have noticed it seems.

Hi everyone. As someone new to the presale setup, could I ask a question to the more experienced fans? I went to the Ticketmaster website just to do a bit of investigation, and the only show listed on there is the Glasgow one...?? So if I'm lucky enough to get a code, where do you go to input that? And does anyone know why the London and Liverpool shows aren't listen on Ticketmaster UK?
Also I've seen a few of you mention that the presale tickets don't guarantee great seats. Would it be in any way beneficial to try my luck in the general sale or do those tickets disappear in minutes?
I've been so looking forward to getting some UK dates, but now the time has come, I'm actually terrified!!
Thanks all.

The O2 presale today is with AXS so it varies what ticket companies are used for different presales, i dont think the fan club one id Ticketmaster normally

Will we have to be on Paulmccartney.com or on Ticketmaster if we get a code for the pre-sale.Will the txt message with the code tell you what site to be on.
-
Thanks for the replies guys, most helpful
Wishing all those trying to get tickets lots of luck for tomorrow. I hope we'll be reporting back with good news!

Just had two emails back on two of my email accounts saying that I’m on a waiting list for tickets for the Liverpool presale. So everyone else should be getting emails now I should imagine.

Beware if you're relying on the code you're sent. My friend got hers and it didn't work. Have an alternative plan in case you have problems with your code.
She finally found the VIP section and bought one of those, although its not in the center section.
-
My partner and me are both on the waiting list.
-
Also got an email to say I'm on the waiting list! Does anyone know when VIP go on sale?

10 am BST. Where do you live (what time zone?) And what venue/city are you going for?

I was lucky enough to get presale codes for Glasgow and London, however the only gig I can go to is Liverpool
Anyone with a Liverpool code wanting to swap codes for one of the other 2?
-
Hubby and I also have had emails saying we're on the waiting list. I'm currently in the queue for VIP tickets..........
