i've just got 2 tickets for me and my sister from the site.... so lets HOPE its OKAY! im sure it is... if people have used it before and the site help section seems pretty convincing.
If we all don't get tickets can we please go down to Leeds Uni on Friday with our printed details and start a riot for tickets? ^_^

Don't worry I'll post as soon as mine arrive. Unfortunately Ticketmaster use SMS (SPecial mail Services) to delive their tickets and this has caused problems for people in the past but here in Leeds I've never had a problem with them

yeah i think i got tickets for the red hot chili peppers through ticketmaster (if my memory serves...) and they came fine. i suppose it's just a matter of waiting. atleast we can relax now. and not have to go to the uni in the cold (or blistering heat) for hours to wait in a line. =/

sadly that's common now. Last year Tom Waits did a one off show in London and over 2/3rds of the 3500 tickets were resold on ebay. At least this time people will have the option to queue and get tickets.
I just hope none of the people who picked up the link from here are reselling

For those with them in hand, did they come by regular post or special delivery? not at home at the moment, so need to organise collection from post office if they were special.

Wow those tickets looks really nice. Can't wait for mine to show up. I'm really excited now as this promises to be a fantastic night.
Glad I could be of assistance folks.

Ideally I need two (one for my lass) Would only want face value + fees etc - would be between £40 - £45. If you don't get one during general sale tomorrow, let me know.

Hi all,
Im wondering if the people that have recieved there tickets ordered from Ticketmaster or they were transfered to the Ticketmaster website once they bought them on the UK2 Nokia site? Im yet to recieve mine that I ordered via phone from Ticketmaster on Tuesday but ive just phoned them and they said ive definitely got them but they are yet to be dispatched? He also said there is still tickets left! Which can be bought by ringing 08704000688 the automated system is damn ennoying and if you wish to speak to a human being just say any old rubbish at the voice recognition stage.
Thanks Alex
