View Full Version : Validation Process
Just had an email back from park tickets.com to say my payment has been processed. Just a tad confused by something mentioned in the email, says something about validation process for the tickets must be done, otherwise the tickets wont work??
Can anyone explain this for me?
Thanks

I think the only ones that can answer this will either be Martin, John or Roger, as soon as they read your posting I am sure they will help. Don't do anything until you hear from them, it maybe a scam....better to be safe than sorry.

Our tickets came a few days ago you just have to click on the link in the e-mail when you receive the tickets, I presume it is a security feature in case the tickets go astray.

Absolutely - the tickets are as good as cash (i.e. they are good for use by whoever has them) and so we take the view that you have to positively confirm you have them otherwise we will assume they have gone astray and cancel them.
We do this to protect our customers in case the tickets get mislaid.

It's dead easy Angela, you just click on the link and you get an instant message to say your tickets have been validated. Don't forget to do it though or you won't be able to use your tickets![msnoo]

I was given a specific e-mail address (to Martin, I think) in order to validate our tickets. It was all quite straightforward.
I just wondered; what if someone does forget to validate their tickets till they actually arrive in Orlando? It is possible for this to happen. Will they then be able to validate them in person at the OV office near WDW?

I'm afraid not - that is just a ticket collection location for us.

Right! So, if someone did forget to validate, would they be "well and truly in it" like Arthur Daley would have said?

They could email us from Florida, use the online validation form with the link we send them with their order, or phone us up. Any of these would be ok for validating the tickets.

I was really happy with our tickets I had emails telling me what stage the shipping was at and when to expect them, and the validation was easy
thanks everyone for your comments, i will make sure we validate as soon as we get the tickets...thanks again[msnwink]

The validation process is easy and there is a big note with the tickets telling you to do it straightaway. For reasons beyond me we have had one or two who have forgotten to this, however it is easily sorted out from Florida.

I've had that before with DHL (not for park tickets) I think it can take a few hours to get onto the system sometimes:)

it should be www.fedex.com, there was a glitch which reverted to DHL who we no longer use.

You should get your tickets in the morning by noon and the latest. 5 days delivery not bad from the USA.

Ticket tag will be the ifnger scanners at the park, making each ticket unique to the first user. Driving license will do for ID.
