Murph Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) So it's confirmed we do have to collect at the events. Thank you SM for making me have to join yet another queue!! Edited July 8, 2016 by Murph 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1980 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) Just got my email, I know what I'll be doing first thing on Friday. Glad I only have 3 to pick up :s Edited July 8, 2016 by john1980 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolik Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I'd rather collect than go through turmoil when Royal Fail lose the pass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Yeah, just got my email as well. Note what it says about presenting your printed/downloaded ticket at the photoshoot. You may not be allowed entry to the shoot if you do not have it to show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I'd rather collect than go through turmoil when Royal Fail lose the pass... Should have been sent out to us by recorded delivery. There are 7 diamond pass guests as it stands. Even with only 100 for each sold, that's potentially 700 people heading to a desk to wait and collect. Not happy at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persephone1 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) Not ideal - I could do without the queue and having to have both diamond pass AND printed ticket to access the photoshoot is super annoying. But given the fallibility of Royal Mail probably the best option. Edited July 8, 2016 by Persephone1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1980 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Print outs would probably be a good plan depending on what the wifi is like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChwaerFach Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I assume that everybody with a diamond pass will not arrive at the Olympia the same day nor the same time on a day as anybody else with a pass, so the queue should not be too long, I guess. Thank you SM ! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Print outs would probably be a good plan depending on what the wifi is like It can get a bit rubbish by all accounts due to so many people connecting in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Name Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Print outs would probably be a good plan depending on what the wifi is like You can always use an app (not sure about android but there is either Wallet/Passbook and the Eventbrite app on iOS) or just download the PDF onto the phone itself before you come so you don't need Wifi to access them. The problem with the Wallet/Passbook app is that it doesn't show batch numbers but that shouldn't matter for the diamond passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you SM ! :) Also they are well versed in this kind of set up from the Sherlocked and other events that use the same pick up method. Whilst I am just guessing, they will probably have a desk for each guest and you just queue, show your tikcet, get your pack and move on. Unless anyone has any problems it should be fairly quick.

Unfortunately it doesn't show the day you chose for photoshoot either. So best to go with the PDF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you SM ! :) Agreed, it should hopefully be a quick process as well. I'm going all three days but the 2 diamond guests I've got are only going Sat/Sun so my plan is to pick them up sometime on the Friday. I'll keep an eye on the desk and when it's not busy I'll collect then as I won't need them that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
only_jay Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) Would have been good to use the Thursday that was cancelled to do all this collecting as i'm there doing nothing now! Have 3 to get! Edited July 8, 2016 by only_jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Good to see people being more positive than I. But I feel there will be a lot of disappointed/stressed people on the day. I've done a gold pass pick up (before they handed out outside) and that was a slow process of collecting from desk inside. I wait to be proved wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by a lot of the comments here there are people who are only doing single days or just the weekend not the friday so have faith it'll all work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that every attendee with a diamond pass ticket will be attending on Friday and all wanting to get their ticket as the doors open, all at the same time. I have only 1 diamond ticket this year and won't be picking mine up till I leave on Friday around 2 or 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 That is most likely very true. But at the same time, I doubt only 700 diamond passes have been sold either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
