How to correct a Danish person who thinks they are important

Well it’s not really about that, but I wanted to upgrade a ticket so I could get a Roskilde Tent, already put up, with a number, and it’s a collectible item afterwards as you get to take it home! They advertised the getatend promo, and then said email info@ and then didn’t say much else except for today..

Emne: Get A Tent - where is your reply

Hi

My friend emailed you regarding upgrading one of the tickets to a Get A Tent. The newsletter email I receive stated you would reply with information on how to convert his ticket. No such reply has been received. Please advise what we must do to upgrade one of the tickets he has for a Get A tent ticket. Thanks

So I get a reply..

Hi,

If you go to www.billetnet.dk, you can purchase an additional Get A Tent ticket.

Obviously he didn’t read my email. I don’t want to purchase another ticket. So I said so.

He replied back with this:

You will need to buy an additional Get A Tent ticket - that’s the only way around it, I’m afraid.

Fine. but by then, I have the ticket I want. So I replied with this:

It’s fine…

I found on the billetnet.dk site, an option to buy the tent ticket only (500DKK) without needing to buy another Roskilde ticket for 1300+kr (since I already have one of those). Maybe you could direct people to this link?

No reply yet, but I wouldn’t expect one, he waited until the end of his working day to send me the so sorry but i am totally incapable of giving you the correct website to purchase our tent, which really isn’t worth 500DKK but we thought it was a good idea at the time.

I now have access to free hot water, and free food, and no work, and no rush to get to the tent in the first place.
