IMPORTANT information on credit card payment in Sweden

Post by Amrei »

I am very sorry not to have seen the thread describing payment problems before now.

I just called customer service, who told me, that since march 25th they accept VISA, MasterCard and AMEX from all countries except Asia and Russia.

If you should have any problems to pay your tickets, you can call them at +46776707777 from monday morning 9.a.m. , when the tickets go on public sale. .

As the employees can´t see the tickets in their system before then, they will not be able to help you before. But if you have problems to pay via Internet, you then will be able to provide your credit card information by phoneThey do not accept PayPal.

Did you all notice, that you will have to create an account with ticnet and that the password you choose, you will have to provide in the payment proces. If you don´t have an account, you will not be able to buy. This also could be a part of the problem. If you need help, send a pm and I will send you my phone number ... I will be available until 11.30 a.m. and again tonight after 21.00 (09.00 p.m.) and check regularly!

I am very sorry for this coming so late, but I hope it will work out for you all.

Amrei

Jarkko probably tied up the center seats while we were hunting. :lol:
Anyway, I bought seats 5 and 6 almost next to you in Gothenburg. I have no idea where they are situated.
Looking forward to meeting you, Wendy, after all of our forum posts.

I also have no idea how we will get to Gothenburg from Krakow. But, I love your philosophy, "where there's a ticket in hand there is a way". :D

Oh dear! I am obviously instantly forgetable! We met last November in Vegas and San Jose Arlene - albeit briefly.

Congratulations to your goo seats, Arlene. Gothenburg has an airport, so you should be able to fly from Krakow.

arlene, gothenburg has two airports, depending on airline
also considering, fly to copenhagen, and take train (cheapest if booking 3 months ahead) - 3-4 hour train - or just change planes in copenhagen

2008 - Got 12 Oct, Sto 15 Oct, CPH 17 Oct, Ham 31 Oct.

I tried to find a seating plan for the concert in Stockholm. The official site of the venue (Globen) says under its FAQ's that for concerts like that the layout for the seating usually changes so often that it would be practically impossible for them to publish the layout everytime a change is made, so at least for the concert in Stockholm it seems like there'll be no seating chart available in advance. I don't know about Malmö and Gothenburg though !?

Any advice on the cheapest flights to Krakow from Malmo? I'm assuming it would be through Copenhagen. Also, hotels...would it be better to stay in Malmo or Copenhagen (I'm only there for one night).

Thanks.

Mary (feeling tired, but happy). :D

Wow. Last night/early this morning was quite the pre-sale adventure!

Amrei and courage: Thank you for the travel suggestions for Krakow to Gothenburg. Much appreciated.

: Here is the seating map for the Gothenburg Scandinavium Arena. However, seat numbers are not shown so I don't know if my seats are Webb side or Javier Dino side. I sent the arena an email asking about the exact location of my seats, but have not heard back.

Got to my computer about 3:15 a.m. & looks like we got 2nd row seats in Stockholm & Gothenburg (yaaay!) - although it's not clear, since I haven't seen a seating chart yet, what the story is with what the "sections'/divisions": the confirmation for Stockholm says "Stalls West" under "division", & the confirmation for Gothenburg says "Parkett Ingang R" - anyone know what those things mean? Both confirmations say Row 2 - am hoping that they are in a front section. (I know I saw a link to a seating chart on another page in this thread - thank you for the post - I will go there later)

I guess alot of you will be in Krakow when we are in Stockholm - I will miss you - (maybe someone out there will be in Stockholm too?); I look forward to seeing you all in Gothenburg!

Jarkko, thank you so much for making it possible for us to be near The Man!!

Edit: okay, I just looked at the link for the seating chart in Gothenburg (thanks, Arlene) - there's not much info on it, but I saw a big "R" that is not very close to the stage - (oh no) - I hope that's not where our seats are, esp. after getting up at 3:00 am to purchase them!

Generally it is cheaper to find a hotel in Sweden than in Copenhagen, which usually is very expensive.

You will be able to click you to accomodations through these two links:

visitdenmark.com
visitsweden.com


Change language in top right corner. Then you can find the cities and find links to practically everything.

IMPORTANT: If you should go to Sweden by ferry (there is a connection from Poland to Ystad, not far from Malmø), then check the site of the ferry company for packages. Often they have favourable offers when you book ferry and accomodation together via the ferry site. The same is the case for everybody, who wants to go to Odense. If you take the ferry to Copenhagen or Århus you can book accomodation right away and save a lot of money. Maybe also in connection with flights.

Ferry links:

http://www.directferries.co.uk/poland.htm
(covers all routes and links to the operators)


www.stenaline.com
(between Denmark, Sweden and Norway and Poland (Gdynia) and Karlskrona (Sweden)

www.colorline.com
(between Sweden and Germany)

Don´t underestimate the ferry connections. They are often much more comfortabel, cheaper and faster than flights, especially if you have to change in Copenhagen.


Once you have arrived, you can buy a Göteborg- / Malmø- / Stockholm Passport for one or two days. The passport gives you free public transport and free entrance at all sights and museums.
