Euro 2016 Tickets

[nigel-harps1954]

Long shot, but any tickets for any of the three games that may be going, send them on this way.

Would take 2 for Belgium/Italy too.

Should ticket threads be set up for the individual matches?

I'll put my name down for Sweden (2) and Belgium (2) (max quantity as per ticket rules?) if so.

I think so. That's how it was for Euro 2012. I'll set em up sure.

ticket threads added to the Euro 2016 thread at the top of the forum

has anyone seen tickets on the portal at all? Pretty sure I've seen tickets for every other team, bar Republic of Ireland!

[DeLorean]

Ireland v Sweden used pop up intermittently, Italy v Ireland slightly less so and I've only seen Belgium v Ireland tickets once and it was the day it opened. That's been my experience anyway.

The FAI's 1-2 week expectation of finalising the extra tickets is up tomorrow by my reckoning also.

Edit- Italy tickets just popped up but were gone as soon as they appeared as usual.

I emailed them about this again, hopefully they won't eliminate me from proceedings on the grounds of being a plague. This was the reply:

Many thanks for your email.

We intend communicating with all supporters next week.

We understand that fans are starting to get anxious and appreciate your patience during this process.

Regards,

Ticket Customer Relations

That's a decent response from them. Acknowledging the issue and straight up calling it.

[DeLorean]

Yeah in fairness it didn't leave me with any lingering questions.

[punkrocket]

They may be waiting for the resale portal to run it's course so they can see who got what and avoid duplicate tickets going to anyone.

[tetsujin1979]

Ticket portal closed: http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/ticketing/index.html

The ticket resale platform is now closed. All tickets that were put up for resale and were not purchased by other fans will remain allocated to the resellers. For more information on tickets for UEFA EURO 2016™ go to EURO2016.com.

Only saw a handful of Republic of Ireland tickets the whole time it was open, no luck getting any.

[BonnieShels]

That was quick. Has anyone gotten tickets at all outside of the initial allocations?

[DeLorean]

Nope. Right, so basically half the country will get an email when a couple of tickets become available. If the chances were slim before they're non existent now.

[BonnieShels]

Have those FAI emails gone out?

I haven't gone near YBIG since the first day of this when I had that transaction go through.

[DeLorean]

I haven't received anything yet anyway, they said they 'intend' doing it this week. Then again, three weeks ago they said they intend doing within 1-2 weeks.

[DeLorean]

Have those FAI emails gone out?

Got notified yesterday evening. Had anybody else applied for the FAI's extra tickets? I got an email with an ID number and a notification that I was successful in getting two Cat.1 Belgium tickets. When I logged into the account there were invoices for two Belgium Cat.2 tickets and two Sweden Cat.1 tickets! I didn't ask any questions, I just threw in the credit card details!

Edit - the deadline for accepting (paying for) any tickets offered is midnight 28th April. The FAI were not in receipt of any Cat.3 or Cat.4 tickets from UEFA. No tickets will be issued until they receive payment and the passport details of those using the tickets.

[tetsujin1979]

yeah, I applied and got the rejection letter on Monday
