Particularly when I booked tickets for Kate Bush; I kept getting the page stall when I tried to confirm my booking, after four attempts, I noticed a tiny little T&C box in yellow halfway down the page for Kate, which didn’t show clearly on my phone’s screen.
Tapped it and hit confirm, an eternity passed before it went through, on 0.26 seconds…
As it happens my Row E seats turned out to be front row!
