We finally got through. Lost 2 sets of tickets through the purchasing process. TM wouldn't accept our payment. Third time lucky. 3 Row C Orch seats - yay!!!!! Can't believe I'm going again in the Spring. Can't wait to see who's on stage :)
But, yes, this process sucks. I guess its better than letting the pre-sale go to Amex holders..... but still very buggy. Will not even bother trying for Bruce.
How is this for fans? The tickets are still out of most people's price range. Honestly, the show is good but it isn't this good. I saw it for $89 in center orch with the original cast TWICE.
Cursed Child and Bruce are going to be blood baths.

Finally got through. That was an emotional experience. Hamilton round *cough*, here I come!
For those who are curious about pricing during this block release, this isn't "official," but various prices I was able to find during the presale:
Random WEEKEND performance Orchestra - $849, $549, $229 Front mezzanine - $310, $289, $285 Rear mezzanine - $229, $199
Random WEEKDAY performance Orchestra - $749, $285, $229 Front mezzanine - $285, $229 Rear mezzanine - $199 all
The biggest change I noticed was that a lot of performances were offering front row mezzanine seats for $289 or $285, as opposed to top premium seats like I believe they used to.

Congrats! How much were your seats?
$240 each including fees etc. They're the last 3 seats before mid-premium kicks in. I've sat far R-Orch before. We'll miss the action on the stairs on the right, but its not much and I'd rather have the view of stage on the left side. We like to see the sweat!! My friend is dancing in her living room right now. She's never been and super excited!
I finally got my Orchestra Partial View ticket after 1.5 hrs of trying, but my goodness the system was buggy for me (tried both on desktop and phone) and I almost gave up. I've usually had quite good luck with buying hot tickets but now I kept getting cut off at different stages of the process, and probably could have ended up with a better seat in the end, but didn't want to risk it when it finally seemed to go through. Oh well.

Umm... "Persons who exceed the ticket limit may have any or all of their orders and tickets cancelled without notice by Ticketmaster in its discretion."
Good point, Haterobics. Don't put your own order at risk! They have certainly revoked tickets previously.
Just curious: has anyone had success USING someone else's code?
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
It looks like more codes got released since they just sent me one. Fingers crossed I can find a $199 ticket that isn't in the far corner of the back row of the rear mezzanine.
HELP!!! I have a code, but every possible date, time and number no tickets come up? Can someone please advise what might be a less popular date and time to try? Thanks
i had no luck with the Phone. Took me 30 seconds to get tickets on my I Pad. Try a PC or I Pad. Go to Ticketmaster Site . Look for Hamilton tickets. Put in Code. I think everyone is using a phone to buy tickets

Try weekday, esp Wed matinee. I tried weekend shows and no seat comes up. Weekday in June I got lots of selections (but more like mezz area) You can choose seats now rather than waiting for the best available seats.
