Still no tickets. If they aren't here by the time I arrive home from work tomorrow I am making calls. Getting really scared now although a fair few of my friends haven't received theirs yet either.

From their twitter page all tickets have been sent out and they are advising people to ring if they havent recieved.

Seen them as a support several times, going to tell my friend who is going who agrees and hates them too, he'll go mad.

Thanks for the info dude, I'm going to go home at lunch and check if any final delivery has been made. If not then I'm going to be making a call this afternoon.

It seems that SeeTickets haven't updated the site in terms of tracking or information saying they have all been sent out. Still says being dispatched.

I hope to god that they can sort something out last minute, be it turn up at an information kiosk on the day or send out new ones or something.

Edit:- Twitter for RATM Factor there is a new post from some dude 30mins ago saying a batch were sent out yesterday (Wednesday) so might arrive today.

When you get off the tube station at Finsbury Park (assumingly) you will know where the entrance is, just follow the hordes of people.

I went back in 2003(?) to a Limp Bizkit gig which was also free (iirc). The entrance is on a main road kinda and is not too far from the tube. There are big gates which you go through where there is often some form of crowd control staff (if not police).

You shouldn't have any problems.

Another post to bump but it seems that there is a statement on the RATM Facebook page saying the following:

IMPORTANT TICKET INFORMATION ** "There are still around a thousand tickets remaining that are being sent by registered post today with emails to everyone. In addition, SEE Tickets will have a collection/report issue point on arrival at the site to follow up things. As long as people have their CONFIRM NUMBER with them and VALID ID things will be ok" - RATM Gig Organiser

The GF sent it to me via email, haven't checked the page or the source other than the official FB group yet.

My tickets haven't come today so I might just call to ask questions and confirm the above anyway. Good news is we can hopefully get in with photo ID and the confirmation paper.

Megahurtz400 · 3 Jun 2010 at 16:49

My tickets still arnt here and ive just called them, basically said because my tickets arnt by registered post they cant do much at the moment, but if theyre not here by Saturday they said to give them a call

Hopefully the above is true

Hi mate, I have just done the following:

Called: 0871 230 0010

Chose option 4 (Sales)

Gave them my ref number and details.

The lady did a bit of typing/checking then put me on hold for 3 minutes. She came back and said that she has raised a call with customer services and took my mobile and said they'd call me today or tomorrow. Before she hung up I asked for a little more info with whats going on as I was a little concerned that the gig is Sunday.

She told me that it doesn't appear that my particular ones have been dispatched either (normal delivery, etc) and that Customer Services will contact me to sort out having a re-print and probably collect on site as it's so close to the actual gig now.

Give it a whirl, don't accept crap about unlucky with delivery. Give her your ref, I didn't mention RATM either, just said waiting on tickets etc.

They should be able to see on their system if they are dispatched or not. Some people have been told they were dispatched begining of the week or last week and as there is no paid postage to wait or be unlucky. It's not acceptable imo.

Keep trying until you get an acceptable answer.

One More Solo · 3 Jun 2010 at 19:41

I expect people may not like to hear it, but it's a free gig, surely it was worth paying a token amount for registered post?!

I accept those who had their tickets bought by others had no choice.
