The WC Organising Committee will open a ticket portal on March 27th.
However it doesn't appear to be as good as previously announced.

1) You can return tickets - FAT Chance.
2) You can transfer tickets with a good excuse. these are
v Transfer within the family and partnerships, accepted by the Law
v Illness of ticket holder / visitor
v Ticket holder or visitor get no visa to travel to Germany
v Ticket holder or visitor is prohibited from travelling
v Force majeure (e.g. acts of war, earthquake, terrorism, political upheavals, epidimia, natural catastrophes)
v Death of ticket holder or visitor or case of death within the family of ticket holder / visitor
v Hardship case
however it does not allow you to swop tickets.
It also costs 10 euro a pop to change a name.
I still don't believe they will check names on tickets with photo id.
BTW 2 good sites with plenty of info for those travelling are
http://www.fanguide2006.org/en
and the England fans site
