Official Pre-Sale Info - U2.Com - GENERAL DISCUSSION & INFO

[Liesje]

Okay now I feel like everyone except me has an A. :meltdown:

I'm a C but I signed up 20 minutes ago, lol

 

[wenda]

Just got my email, I'm in Breathe. Oh well.

Just got mine too. Breathe as well.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

My code starts with U2B and I subscribed this past Saturday.

 

[neutral]

the good thing is that there will probably be a ton of C's because i'm guessing that many people will get word of this after us obsessed fans.

i just hope in the end that no matter whether you're an A, B, or C, you get some good tickets.

Yeah I'm sure it'll work out. Way too early to panic, plenty of time for that later. And at least I have a date really close to me. Strange list of cities so far.

 

[Bonogirl777]

I think if you are looking for GA's you'll have no problem
or seats for that matter

 

[mikal]

so do we know for sure that "A" means "Horizon, etc...etc..?

Same goes for London.


Only it's TRUE!

 

[ChangeTheTemperature]

I am in Horizon, but I have a U2B code so I don't think it is necessarily tied to the letter.

I signed up a coupel of weeks ago but was a paid member on and off for the last 10 years (not in the last 3 though)

I've been a paid member since 2001 and I got in the Breathe group, so I'm a little upset.

 

[GraceRyan]

I'm in Breathe as well. I've also been a fan club member since 2001 and didn't renew last year because I couldn't justify the cost. I guess I won't that lapse again.

So, is it 4 tickets per 4 shows in America? If so, that's pretty good.

 

[rizon]

I got this email:

Dear Anand,

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I just received my email. I am in Breathe.

 

[one4u2]

I'm at work so instead of going through all the threads whats the deal with the group names for the presale?

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

got it

Horizon group - i have had continous subscription since late 2004

I'm in Horizon too!

I need to call Fanfire though as my boyfriend had to pay for the full subscription even though he was renewing.

 

[threwabrick]

I'm in Breathe as well. I've also been a fan club member since 2001 and didn't renew last year because I couldn't justify the cost. I guess I won't that lapse again.

sounds like it's 4 tickets for the tour, broken up how you wish. I'll most likely get 2 for 2 gigs.

 

[JanuaryStar]

I'm also in the Breathe group... Is it seriously 4 tickets for ONE show only in Europe? Meh

 

[anitram]

I was a Prop members for YEARS and then stopped paying in 2005 and joined 2 weeks ago which lands me in Breathe.

I'm not that worried, given the stadium tour there should be enough GAs to go around. There might be some clusterfuck around opening night or something but otherwise I think we're ok.

[elevashn_hj]

I just got in... Wrote down my code, just in case there's a fuckup, cause you know, that event would be so unlikely.

Where did you find your code? Now granted I am one of those with a way messed up account but I do have my Fanfire confirmation that I paid and my profile says paid member until 11 December 2010 (which is odd in itself).

 

[JanuaryStar]

I'm at work so instead of going through all the threads whats the deal with the group names for the presale?

There's 3 groups, and they all have different 'access time' to the presale, this is what the FAQ on U2.com says:

Q - When is the latest I can join U2.com to be involved in the Internet ticket pre-sale?
A - Anyone who is a current Subscriber to U2.com can participate when ticket presales take place but those who have been Subscribers longest get the earliest opportunity to enter the presale. 'Horizon Subscribers' have access starting on the morning of Day 1 of the presale, 'Breathe Subscribers' have access from the morning of Day 2 of the presale and 'Boots Subscribers' have access from mid afternoon on Day 2 of the presale. The presale for each concert closes at Noon / Midday on Day 3. The public ticket sale will start after Day 3 of the presale. The exact times for access will be emailed to you and made available on the tour page of U2.com.

You should be able to find it on the 'Tours' section on U2.com once you're signed in, somewhere on the middle of the page, left side.

 

[XBL_AchtungBaby]

Also please note. That as of right now. There are not even 22,000 paid subscribers to U2.com.... I would be thinking that there is at least 8-10,000 GA tickets for a single show.....

Me and my wife are in Breathe also. I was a Prop member from mid-90's up until 2005. Let u2.com lapse. Rejoined mid-Feb. My wife joined last Thursday....

 

[mikal]

I just received my email. I am in Breathe.

when did you sign up/become paid subscriber?

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

So, is it 4 tickets per 4 shows in America? If so, that's pretty good.

Something like that.

I like that, I can use the code for Chicago and then again for either NY or when they come back next year.

If I plan to do GA for all shows I go to, that could really kick ass.

exactly. i'm probably shooting for GA's as well. so hopefully it's not an issue.

i'm normally not one to complain, but i think this seniority thing is purt shit, since i was a Prop member also, but will most likely be screwed because i didn't pay the last couple years.

hmm...well that's good at least.
