Nathan Walton oooh
Glad to see this catching on, makes things so much easier
Will the wristbands be removable? I’m coming to the festival as the assistant of someone who uses a wheelchair and often needs me to go and fetch things like food or drink for her due to pain, fatigue or just because it’s quicker than going herself. The previous years we’ve been she just gave me her wallet. Will she be able to give me her wristband this year to pay?
Does unused credit get refunded?
Emma, Sarah, have you seen this? A good idea, no need to carry cash! Xx
Claire Wormald no worrying about losing your purse AGAIN 😂 this is the future
Evan Smith this sounds ace xx
Brilliant news! Seems easy enough as well to set up 🙂
Can’t believe more UK festivals don’t do this already, so much simpler than carrying cash (and losing it in my case). 👏
Vicky Smith. Register x
Brilliant! Will stop me loosing my card… again 😅
Sounds fun!
Scott MacFarlane Rachel Blackman merch frenzy 😜
How can you add your ticket number when I haven’t been sent my ticket yet?
Paula Allen have you seen this? X

Worked well at fyre festival
Oh dear, had bad experiences in the past. Can you point us to directions, terms, costs, charges etc
Given that contactless is so widespread now, why is having to put in more than you’ll spend in advance, then claim a refund for the rest (minus £1) at the end a good idea?
I’m going Saturday 😊
Lose your wristband, lose your money?
Wow, I’m in. What say Denise Scappaticci, all in for the full experience…? x
So the bar staff wont be able to be tipped?
so my cash is useless?
wait do we have now book the talks in advance? please say that isnt the case
This is a mad idea in the extreme. Just who does this benefit? Not me for sure. If I want to give my children a tenner, I reach into my.pocket and pull out a couple of tenners. Now my cash is pointless as you don’t want it. That’s fine as the festival is expensive enough as it is, so we will just cut our spending at the event to nothing. I don’t like the idea that you will collect masses of data about my or my family’s spending, I deplore the idea that if there is money left of the band at the end that I have to claim it back and within a month else I probably won’t get it. As a live-in vehicle attendant, I can easily avoid spending money there and I suspect that I will not be the only one with such views.
Given that this news has been launched just a month before the event which is an effective change in the offering which we have no option of opting out of, will you give me a refund of my tickets as I am now not looking forward to this.
Anyone who thinks this is a sound idea needs to carefully think about the privacy issues and the huge amount of data you are giving up.
Ian Merry Kirsti Allport this is a good idea, not long now 😁 x
Megan are you going to Bluedot? We’re all there
None of these ideas seem simple, cash is extremely simple to manage so why people want to use anything else is a mystery
