Scummer Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 Ordered tickets for 4 events and have got one of them. All tickets I chose were the same price, so just have to wait and see now whether we'll be going to athletics, tennis, gymnastics or equestrian.

LGTL Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 There will be 2nd chance sales soon enough, and a ticketing exchange set up once people realise they don't want to go to the Weightlifting anymore. Tickets will be easy enough to come by espicially for some of the "sports" nobody else is interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um Bongo Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 I've got one of the semi final's and final for the footie, six tickets and all that I asked for. Lucky I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Block 5 Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 Nothing taken from my account. My kids miss out while half the tickets probably go to the corporates. Lord Coe can shove his Olympics up his Tory botty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jawillwill Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 Took a gamble and only applied for the big events (ceremonies, Sprint finals and veledrome finals). Knew it was unlikely I'd get any of them, but didn't want to apply for any others just in case I did get lucky (in which case I would have gone further into my overdraft than I already am). Stupid system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGTL Posted 1 June, 2011 Share Posted 1 June, 2011 I got £126 worth from an exposure of £600 so pretty pleased. That's two events from the opening ceremony, athletics, swimming, volleyball and gymnastics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussexsaint Posted 20 June, 2011 Share Posted 20 June, 2011 Had an email this saturday (18th) congratulating me on getting tickets , checked the bank and 600 quid has gone which I reckon are athletics tickets - nopt heard anything up until now so figured I got nothing , presume some cards didn't work and there must have been a 'virtual' queue of backups. Dead chuffed and my kids are over the moon - we get to go to the 100m qualifiers and see Usain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 22 June, 2011 Share Posted 22 June, 2011 I have tickets to the tennis on Number 1 court. Not bad, as I've never been to Wimbledon and should see at least one top player that day. Or none if it rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieDog Posted 22 June, 2011 Share Posted 22 June, 2011 applied for 2 grands worth of tickets spread across 6 different sports but not necessarily finals. Got absolutely zero, so after getting the kids excited for the past 3 years about their first ever trip to England and seeing the Olympics, we're left with the "2nd chance" application for events we're not interested in, or where the minimum price for tickets are in the hundreds of pounds each. Or we look for the thousands of "ticket packages" that will suddenly show up as you can be sure the big corporates got a shedload of tickets. Still...on the bright side, it's probably saved me 20 grand all up - so what if the kids are going to be miserable for the next couple of years.

sussexsaint Posted 22 June, 2011 Share Posted 22 June, 2011 Confirmation e-mail today got the morning session for the Athletics on the 4th August - a collegue at work also had them out of the blue as well, so either they have released more tickets or as I said above some peoples Visas didn't work or have sufficient funds. Get to see Jessica Ennis and Usain Bolt, kids chuffed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
