I was talking to the ticket office yesterday as I still haven't received my tickets and they said that all tickets were posted and that everyone (in Ireland anyway) should have their tickets today.
Hope mine arrive today then, or I'll be back on the blower.

I pulled out the seating plan of the stadium and he was well stung and swapped them there and then !
Just got my 2 this morning and only had to pay once for them! Z12 - Perfect
My two sisters had the money taken off their credit cards yesterday and the day before. The FAI are not exactly organised at the best of times, but in this case they are getting there, just slowly, so I wouldn't worry.
My 4 arrived this morning Bloc A4
The dosh was taken from my account today so I see,lovely... :)
Just hope the feck the tickets arrive safely in Sweden before friday.
Does anyone know,do they send a mail when they`ve posted them and how long does it take for the tickets to arrive???
just as i feared!! its friday - all tkts posted and didnt receive mine!! anyone know if registerd post comes on a saturday as well!!
lucky enough used another source too - and have 3 french end as back up!! althought the 2 who i said id give my tickets to won't be best pleased!!
still think no attention paid 2 fact that some will be travelling to paris early and some living abroad!! (only reason i could see for their delay in getting tkts out is that the french were late sending them over)
Tickets are normally not sent by registered post. Sadly no post on saturdays in the Republic.Quote:

Tickets arrvied this morning (Sat), Glasgow, so any other UK people should be getting them round now as well.
got my tickets this morning (manchester), normal post, not registered :)
anyone hear anything that suggests we might still get the tkts if we havnt received them yet???
lady in FaI said tkts were sent thursday/friday by registerd post!!
Fingers crossed - still being in other parts of stadium will still be good!
What organisation! you would think getting French tickets out was a priority before even thinking about the Faroes game.Quote:

Speaking of which I heard they have loads of 'beer tents' outside the ground for rugby internationals which cold come in handy for a 9pm ko
What a debacle i have had.
My CC expired at the end of August so last Wednesday I took it upon myself to ring the FAI, the girl brought up my details and entered my new Expiry Date, grand.
In the mean time the FAI had sent me an email asking for new details so I replied to the email with the new info, just in case.
Thursday some young fella rang me from the FAI saying that my Expiry Date had expired and that he required the new info, I said I already had provided it twice but went along with the rigmorole all the same.
He then read out my CC number to me to be sure and he had the last digit wrong, so we corrected that and I left him off hoping all would be well.
10 minutes later the same chap rang me back wanting to know tha last 4 digits of my CC again.
So here I am on Monday with no tickets and no money taken from my CC yet, I'll have to ring them again today.
What a f*ck up of an organisation.
Me and 2 mates have been planning the trip for months. We decided to go through Slattery's to guarantee us 3 Irish tickets. They sent out 3 tickets for the North stand amd won't exchange them for Irish end tickets. One of us is a block booker and got 5 tickets through the Fai,but on my advice he sold 3 to someone in our local club. So now we've only 2. If anyone can help they can contact me at
patrickdempsey@oceanfree.net
Thank you.
They've beer tents outside Lansdowne Road for rugby games too; when have you ever seen them at football internationals?Quote:

Speaking of which, that stuff sobered me up in Basel :D

..and here we are at almost 3 o'clock on Monday not a cent has come off the CC. :mad:
Just rang them there again but only got voicemail....JOKERS.
still no joy Gary.
If I get through to Kellys voicemail once more i'll scream.
Hopefully we'll get sorted soon.
What a sham of an organisation that is the fai. My cc was stolen a while back and i emailed one of the girls in the fai with my new card no etc 3 wks ago. I then got an email back confirming my change of details, so i thought great sorted, until last tuesday i got an email from them saying my my cc was not in order "suprise surprise i've rung them emailed them and have got not a response. Thankfully i had enough kop on to hold onto the tickets i got for the french end. I really have no faith in this organisation.
how big is the irish allocation..i have seats in e3 from the fai...has football association of ireland on them...
i take we will all be together??
regards
was chattin to few of them in there today! upstairs said all tkts were sent registerd!! downsatairs smiled when I told her this!!! got phone call later off another one : they had my name completely arse ways - back to front or something!!
all fun and games in there in merrion sq - think I might apply for a job- sounds like great craic in there!!! (wonder do they have someone on a PA announcer .....lets all **** up today FAIreland ... lets hearthe Lansdowne Roarr!!!")
lets just sit tight for these last few tkts!!
Any sign of your tickets Brenny? I'm living in Austria, money has been taken off my cc but no sign of the tickets. With no post on Saturday and the post taking 3-5 days to get to places in Europe, I would say its touch and go now. Does anyone know if it is possible to seek a refund if the tickets arrive next week? Or will the FAI blame the postal system? :rolleyes:Quote:

It doesn`t make sense that we ordered the tickets 3 months ago and end up in this situation!
best thing now is get on to the crowd who are distributing tkts for the FAI.
different this time round - FAI have outsourced the job to another crowd - see your e-mail allocation you received ... sorry bout vague info!
bloke called me today looking for details ... even though I had been allocated 2! no record of me at all! I wrote a mail to FAI so they must have passed on my details to them.
Think the name of the company begins with somthing like Response.... i'll try and get a number, someone else prob has it
good call on that .. checked me email and the address is :Quote:

Have been onto the FAI about 6 times since I was told I had 2 tickets....eventually heard back from a bloke yesterday evening...
Because of their f*cking around it's now too late to post the tickets so I have to go in to Merrion Square today & collect them...good job I live in Dublin...although I wouldn't be surprised if there's another twist in this ridiculous saga... :confused:
Balls,still haven`t got me tickets! :mad:
If they don`t come tomorrow I`ll be sitting with the frogs......
got mine today thank god anybody who still hasnt got theres ring the fai as they got back to me after leavinga message

Eventually got through to reception, and was told to contact some rep tomorrow at the hotel they are staying at in Paris. Of course, they are only there until 11am and I arrive at midday at CDG.
Bag of sh'ite ..
Some people getting tickets and not being charged on the cc .. others not getting tickets and being charged ...
