worked for me. International customers only! You need your CreditCard Number and you´ll het your Reservation No. You need to pick up the tickets at the box office in Rotterdam.

Good Luck.

Gotta a bit quite here so I thought I was the only sucker still trying......!!!!!

I'm still trying both options, too. Have tickets for Friday, but it would bug me if I could see only one show when I'm already there!

That's it, I'm going to take a shower, something I was planning to do at about 10:30....

Still trying - its doing my fucking head in now lol

Same here. Even more annoying that the first recorded message on the phoneline was in English, and then the rest are Dutch - I have no idea where I am in the queue (or if i'm even in one!)

that enganged tone when i call them

Quick translation. They cannot solve the problems at the moment. Sales is stopped now and continues May 16th 10 am

I have no tickets yet, a waste of more than 5 hours of trial and trial

In the past 5 hours and 20 minutes I have been able to enter the ticketpage 4 times.

twice I did not get any furher than that, and twice I was able to reach the payment section and then Internal server error message came up.

And after at least 25 calls still no tickets !

I really drives me nuts !

and the same thing is probably going to happen again on Tuesday!

what a bunch of amatures

they should know this could happen

they should have proper servers

[Edited 5/13/11 6:28am]

Friggin ticketmaster better get their shit together cause I can see the same shit happenin again!!!

I tell ya man.......this has been VERY frustrating day!!!!

Oh well......guess I'll see U chaps same place, same channels next tuesday!!!

Ciao!

FML what a fucking nitemare! No doubt it will be the same on Tuesday arghghghhhhhhh!

Congrats 2 the luck few who managed to get tix!

The do these sales more often. How much we all like it, i am wondering if this problem is really caused by demand for prince tickets.
