1. This is why I stay inside and eat those 53p tin of tesco beans with little sausages in them raw and make my own canned music and sleep on my kitchen floor.

3. If you’re spending £10k to go to Glastonbury you deserve to be ripped off, idiots like you are the reason ticket prices are insane for gigs,.sporting events etcs , if people refused to pay ridiculous prices they would be forced to bring prices down

4. Quite funny tbh. Only a certain type of person can waste that much money on camping.

5. If you can afford to spunk £16,500 on a festival package then tbh I don’t have sympathy for you. Yes I’m aware the article is obvious rage bait hence why I refuse to click the link.

6. Hard to not think this was a scam. To take thousands, not have secured ANY tickets and then go bankrupt without any chance of refund…pretty fuckin fishy. Surely they should be investigated.

7. Gosh such an authentic leftist event – £16.5k ticket price.

8. Companies House shows the company has been trading at an approx £1M loss for a couple of years and the registered address was changed back in March to the accountants office from what lools like a nice residential cottage near Bath. The directors surname is Suenson-Luke, not “Luke”. There could be more to go on this story.

9. How does a company whose only outlay is putting up fucking tents and buying tickets go bust?

10. It’s hard to have sympathy when the festival very clearly state “Tickets will be sold exclusively at [glastonbury.seetickets.com](http://glastonbury.seetickets.com), **do not attempt to book tickets from third parties**.”

    These ‘VIP’ firms have been reselling hospitality (A&R/guestlist etc) tickets for years and it’s backfired

11. I disagree with comments saying those that can afford to spend this amount of money deserve to be ripped off. It emerged the company hadn’t even bought Glastonbury tickets, so were clearly winging it at best, or scamming folk at worst.

    The article says many “were unable to pay by credit card at the time of booking, with the company instead asking for a bank transfer”, so charge backs are not an option.

    I question the intelligence of someone spending this amount of money via bank transfer, with no other insurance or protection in place.
