Hey, I don't know whether this has happened to anyone else, but I bought 2 standing tickets for the Manchester gig, but was charged 65 quid per ticket from See Tickets. Now I know on Ticketmaster the standing tickets were only 47.50. Has this happened to anyone or can they confirm the official ticket price before I launch into complaints

Where are they?

I got block 213 row A so I assume thats at the front of the upper tier, good view at least, I had a choice between that and 201 I think which is straight ahead but far back.

I would be willing to swap aswell for standing tickets £125 all together mine cost for 2.

We should quite lucky I guess because loads of people couldn't get anything!

iPsy · 23-09-2011, 10:15 AM

Block 215, Row Q! Hmm...

Yeah, at least we got something

Duchard · 23-09-2011, 11:23 AM

Anyone know if the ticket lmit of 2 is for both pre-sale and general sale.

I bought four seats yesterday but ticketmaster cancelled two of them.
So luckily I got another two this morning but on same card. Not sure if they will cancel again.

A real bummer if they do as Ive been waiting for years to see Coldplay and really really want to go with my mum as she's their biggest fan.

JackColdplay · 23-09-2011, 12:08 PM

Did anyone manage to get standing tickets!? I couldn't believe how difficult it was, managed lower tier seating block 105, I suppose I should just count myself lucky I got tickets at all. Just have to wait for the tour next year (if there is one) for standing tickets.

philliphudson · 23-09-2011, 12:13 PM

yeah i have standing tickets, had my laptop and works computer constantly refreshing from 9:20am both for presale and general sale

You're lucky! I was constantly refreshing on gigs and tours to, and my dad on ticket master but ticket master was playing up and not even giving seating tickets! It's really such a shame how people buy them just to make massive money of them, something needs to be done about it
