Yeah, I’m assuming the front two rows in the centre block are probably guest list etc rather than held back for general sale.

KEEP HITTING REFRESH
I have been hitting reload all morning since pointed out here, with no success.
My wife hits refresh a minute ago and scored two tickets Rear Stalls row PP!!!
Thank you so much for the refresh suggestion, and see you all there!
Very happy!
People should try phoning and going through to switchboard (NOT ticketing), DON’T rely solely on the website, have that up and try the phone in the meantime. I did this after an hour of trying the website on Tuesday and got through in 5 mins but only balcony left, my friend did the same in the presale and got front row tickets
What exactly is this stipulation. Do you get refused entry if your name on ticket mismatches your ID or something ?
@meltdownfest tweet -
"Please note that it is against our terms and conditions to sell tickets above face value for profit or commercial gain. Tickets bought from unauthorised third parties will be invalid for entry."
Is it 10am GMT again tomorrow morning?
So I just got a ticket this afternoon. I tried a few times all through the day, and then all of a sudden there were a group of seats in the balcony. Row F.
I was tempted to wait until tomorrow for a better seat, but I expect it will be super busy, and if there really aren't that many places left I don't want to end up left without.
Sod it anyway, glad I'm going regardless. Going to be a great show. Looking forward to a nice cold beer along the south bank beforehand. Now let's just see if any extra dates do appear once this has properly sold out.
I know, it's a tough call. Originally I had rear stalls EE and fucked up, kept searching to find something better, but they just kept getting worse and worse. At one point, it said nothing was left and I started to panic. Then Balcony came up and I groaned and said... "just take it. Who cares at this point. At least you can go. It's better than not going at all" So I went with it. I'm still thinking of trying my luck in the General Admission one later. I'll only upgrade if I can get something in the first, say... 1-6 rows. If it's all like letters K-T or rear stalls, I won't bother. But I'm thinking of gambling for better.
What ended up fucking me up was I didn't know if you pre-registered for a Southbank account that you would be able to bypass the queue. That's where I went wrong. Seems like the "queue" was for people that didn't have a Southbank account created yet. Few people on this board were able to skip the queue by having an account created already. That's where I went wrong. I just thought registering for an account was to buy a membership. So, that's where I went wrong.
The second part that screwed me up was, I didn't know you could "pick your own seats" I was very confused with this ticketing system. A layout of the venue came up, and when I clicked on the individual sections, nothing happened. Then there were all these different price level types. I accidentally clicked "16 and under concession" tickets first not realizing this until half way through my transaction, I had to go back and redo it and lost what I had.
Having known I could have used the map and pre-registed for a Southbank account first, I probably could have scored way better tickets. That's why I am gonna try again for the General Admission sale, but I have a feeling rows 1-2 were saved for the NIN pre-sale. If there are anything left in the first 1-4 rows I will be VERY surprised.

I lucked it by already having an account and logging in, but thought my screw up was trying to use the map. I spent at least 90 seconds clicking on the empty seats it was showing in the front rows and nothing happened. Then was clicking on random empty seats throughout the venue and nothing happened. Always showing “no seats selected”. Finally I gave up and spotted the “best available seats” option and scored some in row 7. Seemed to me choosing your own seats on the map wasn’t an option and I could probably have got front row if I’d gone “best available” straight away.
How did @Tom get a screen shot of this then?
I figured this is what you guys saw when you opened the Map thingy... hmm...
I wasn't sure if I wanted to try again with the GA sale today, since it wasn't til 5am that I was able to fall asleep after getting the NIN fan club tickets, and I only got like 6 hrs of sleep last night, I didn't want a repeat sleep again tonight, especially since I have an early shift tomorrow... but... fuck it, it's already 1:30am and I still have some stuff to do before I head to bed. What's another hour and a half staying up?
EDIT: I probably sound like a nut here saying it's 1:30am when ya'll are like, da fuck... it's 8:30am!
All of you folks are already waking up to get on with your Thursday... For me, it's still the tail end of Wednesday. It might be "after midnight" already, but for me, I still consider it the same day until I go to bed. So, it's still Wednesday now as far as I'm concerned.

That’s pretty much what I saw, but it wasn’t letting me select any seats! Maybe that function just doesn’t work on an iPhone.
Black Moth Super Rainbow will open for NIN (also in Paris and Amsterdam)
Weirding me out, the button said "currently unavailable" then on a reload switched to 'book now" with "sold out" superimposed.
Hit button anyway and now in queue. Message on wait screen is "A limited number of Nine Inch Nails tickets will be available."
Southbank servers overloading already -
"503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request."
@ManBurning When I got in there was a crude diagram of the seating areas, with selectable sections, and I just clicked on the 'front stalls' section, which brought up this seat selection screen. There seemed to be many more seats available in the rear stalls and balcony, so the nin team really did a good job for the fans.
refreshed the webpage and it said SOLD OUT...
You can still click on book now button under the 'sold out' FWIW
This is even worse than yesterday!
I'm guessing no online sales go down today. Been on hold online now since 9.50 way worse than yesterday. Just grateful that I have stalls already.
Now status is-
"There are now only returns available for Nine Inch Nails, but there is availability for all other gigs."
WTF 9:54am
Edit: don't give up. It's gone now.

NOW I have error 503 service unavailable lol...
Well, I guess I'm glad I got my balcony ticket now hahahaha
got through on phone 30 seconds before 10. Nothing in stalls at all. Only some left in balcony....will stick to my rear stalls tickets then...,good luck everyone.
Bought my tickets yesterday but kept an eye on it today. Looked like some category A balcony seats for row B were available, gone now.
Now only the odd category C shows up. If you can keep trying https://ticket.southbankcentre.co.uk....aspx?p=106581 and good luck
Glad I got my tickets yesterday. That was a clusterfuck this morning. All gone. Only returns left.
It’s almost done people: only returns available.
