Catch-22

It probably has already been discussed but I just read that our AHA member number will not work for pre-sale and that an 11 digit number was emailed out. I haven't received any number...... anyone else?

I did, I have received several like....save the date...reminder, presale begins...etc. Nothing that said, here is your number
I have recieved "unable to process" notices everytime I've clicked on a ticket. Had 2 tix to members only section being held and when I clicked buy "unable to process".
Watching it go from "3 minutes wait time" to "4 minutes wait time". I can only assume the other sessions are flying out the door while I wait. LMAO...this is a ridiculous clusterf@#k every single year!
The annual cluster F that is the GABF pre-sale. Awesome!
Janice Gross if you happen to read this. I firmly believe the biggest mistake the BA ever made was contracting this event to ticketmaster. I am a long time member, and, so far I have been shut out of key sessions every single year (well, however many years ticketmaster has had the event...is this the 3rd?) in spite of the fact that I am online, with my purchase code, credit card out...10 minutes before sales open every single year. They are utterly inept.
I agree. Though I luckily didn't have any problems this year, the last 2 years were not good experiences. I couldn't even get in the first year, and last year I kept being rejected because it wouldn't recognize my member ID. Ultimately, through sheer tenacity I was able to get my tickets.
TM has also seemingly facilitated scalpers rather than preventing them and increased ticket prices by an absurd amount in their short time handling the ticket sales. I really hope the BA goes a different route, but I fear that whomever they move on to will experience problems much the same way TM has.
My first time going to GABF and got my tix to the member session with zero issues. I was on the TM website right at noon EDT and did the whole transaction in less than 2 minutes.
