Seemed okay when I left earlier. The accusations hadn't started.
Just wish I knew I which game I got. Praying for Paris.

Still no word for me. The application is still on the ticket portal, but no movement on the credit card.
Applications won't be updated until emails are sent. Seems to be how it waa for other countries.I'm still seeing everything I applied for.
I see the resale portal opens in March. I'm starting to think the Belgium game might be very tricky, relatively small stadium and a lot of people seem to be going to either the first two games or the second and third game.
Latest on ybig is that processing is gonna continue through the weekend and into Monday. There's still hope yet.
Nothing yet. Application still there but no movement on the credit card.
I've been at every home game in qualifying and went to Glasgow so I'll not be happy if i don't get.
to be fair, the majority seemed to have been sorted so far, there's little in the way of complaints
Sorted for all three group games myself and the second round and last eight if we make it. Giddy up!
Congrats... such optimism deserved to be rewarded!
Yes a lot of regulars I know all sorted.Quote:

He bought a season ticket last year and didn't renew it this time around, he still had his FAI number from purchasing last year though. It's great to see the hardcore support prioritised and there's probably no perfect way of doing it, but it would be great if there was a way of clocking your attendance home and away to get a really accurate reflection of who's the most deserving. Fair play though, it's only a good thing that some effort has been made to look after the majority of frequent match goers.
Still nothing...
All this week to come so still hope.Quote:

Still waiting to hear. I think UEFA said we'd find out either way
Anyone with an 'FAI history' should get in, as have extra tickets to allow for this, as do all the FA's.

I just got the same. How do the fai tickets work?
just got email confirmation of partial success. I had applied for Sweden and Belgium but only got Cat 3 Sweden. Was unlikely I would get to more than one match anyway for various reasons so happy enough.
Just got the confirmation email myself. Giddy, giddy up!
My suspicions were correct about uefa wanting the easy option and less hassle.
Anyone who applied only for Sweden tickets and no others got them.those who applied for Sweden plus one other or the other two werent successful. Uefa didn't mix and match with the ticket applications which is a little unfair I think.
I got all 4 I applied for but the Uefa Investment Vehicle is some racket. The amount I was charged on condition is a bit ridiculous.
I was under the impression that was a safety net for people with FAI numbers that didn't get sorted through UEFA. I have no FAI number but I have purchased tickets directly from them in the past, so I sent them an email there in the unlikely event that they'll be able to help. I'm sure there are thousands in the same boat but no harm in sussing them out.Quote:

I presume this resale portal in March will be normal priced tickets and not a Ticketmaster/Seatwave touting job?!
Got the same email :(
I applied for 2*Sweden and 2*Italy.Quote:

A mate only applied for 2*Sweden. And he got his.
Others in my circle applied for more and have better records this campaign than me and for nowt.
Doesn't really bear out above so.Quote:

I've already booked my trip to Bordeaux so I'll be out there regardless.
not a season ticket holder so unsurprisingly application rejected for all 3 group games. i've all my transport and accommodation booked so will be there regardless.
on the uefa site it says the resale portal will be open march/april but exact dates are not specified.
I got 3 cat 3 tickets for the Sweden game (had put in for four). None for the Belgium game.
I'm a season ticket holder years but have gone to very few aways, so that is probably fair I would say, given that Bordeaux is much smaller. The lads who go to every away game or at least most of them probably deserve to be ahead of me, so few complaints I guess.
The one thing is that alot of the more bandwagon element will only sporadically check the portal (if even), which means that alot of people like me and other lads on this site who didn't get sorted will be more likely too. That is the hope anyway.
We got all of ours we applied for, cash was pending on the card Friday evening, nothing all day up to that which was a bit strange and got the confirmation emails this morning then.
It's well worth going through an affiliated club or a registered supporters club as at least then you have your previous on file as opposed to just ticketmaster and the portals for the finals when they come up every few years on your own bat.
If the YBIG lads could spend less time being narky and got themselves set up as an official group with a registered FAI account between them they wouldn't have half the bother that's happened to them the past few years, if you go home/ away regularly without any record of it then sure there's nothing to go on to try and make sure they/ you get sorted with tickets as best they can.
The club we're with is purely just for our ST's/ aways/ finals tickets over the years, well worth getting in on something like that, bit late now but it's sound advice all the same DL. Yeah, even going back to the World Cup in 06 there was an online portal for tickets, think that was the first one where they started going that way for the process rather than postal/ ballot/ letting the local associations dole out their allocation themselves etc.Quote:

It'd be worth peoples while contacting local supporters clubs/ or FAI affiliated clubs on the off chance as they'll usually have some tickets they've applied for that aren't taken up out of the allocation they got.
A ticketing administrative assistant has passed my email on to his colleague in Customer Relations... that can't be a good sign ;)Quote:

Here is just right. DeL and the rest will get sorted through here no bother I would say.Quote:

He hasn't stopped talking about going to France since the car journey back from the Bosnia game.Quote:

The 2k FAI arse pocket tickets are for exactly this purpose. Just email Cria at the ticket office and state your case with match history etc.. and I am sure you will be looked after.Quote:

Email away to Cria. Hopefully something comes of it.Quote:
