World Cup 2014 tickets: general discussion: NOT for trading or selling

quite likely mate.

 

Two of my cards are in...$840 out of about $10000 so far..and I think they are two sets of tickets for the same match!

This sucks!

 

$10K worth of tickets? Getting a little greedy

 

Sod off, it's hardly greedy just maximising my chances as many others will have done from three separate addresses and credit cards.

Nothing unethical about that unless I planned to sell on for profit which I definitely didn't.

Also, it doesn't seem to have done much good so far...

 

Anyone got tickets to Rio??

 

I reckon that's a sound strategy as long as you go for Cat 1 with the option for reducing the category and number of games. It's worked for me.

 

Has anyone had their ticket page on the FIFA website updated yet? All I have is the money authorised out of my credit card. Just want confirmation so I can sleep at night...

 

Does anyone knows if the draw/charges go 24/7 from now on? I can't sleep checking evry minute if i got any of the tickets i applied for.

 

Good luck with your strategy. Submitted 1 application and got $4040/$4900 (82%)

Applied for 4 tickets for 7 matches (Cat 1 - although would have preferred Cat 3). Looks like we got 6 out of 7 matches that we went for (if allocated all Cat 1) or possibly all 7 matches if some were downgraded to a lower category (hopefully)

I'd actully prefer cheaper cat 3 (or obstructed view). During Euro 2012, the best seats we had were (so-called) obstructed view.

 

Been refreshing my online account for my CC all day and just saw at 1:30am ET my account drop by $480CDN... Must be tickets but can't tell.. Crossing fingers!

 

Which games did u apply for? Group Stage? Knockout?

 

Nothing for me on a TST6 England application but a friend's had a charge on what might be a Rio VST... (I say might as there were 8 of us making multiple applications and it's pretty complicated!)

 

Midnight in Arizona, I gotta work at 6am, but it's 8am Central European Time, should I just stay up and keep hitting the refresh button.... ughhhh....................

 

No charges for me (sucks). At least the FIFA ticket portal seems to be down so they are probably updating it now.

 

Ticket Cat 1 Final nothing on my CC in France... Keeping my fingers crossed even though I know I applied for an over suscribed ticket

 

It's Official. Fifa has charged me $450US... So I suspect I got then my Category 2 tickets for Match 42 in Rio, and then Category 3 tickets for either Match 17 in Fortaleza or Match 34 in Recife. That adds up to $450.. Confirmation pic instagram.com/p/gFWLXkk1QA/

 

Congrats bro.... f--k this, I'm not sleeping, that's why God invented coffee.... I may just hit the refresh button for 5 hours.

 

What tickets/games did u apply for?

 

Any Aussies on here who have has their cards debited for Australia TST-3 tickets???

I've got nothing so far but haven't seen anyone make this claim, but it's killing me seeing others celebrating that their cards have been charged.

Fingers crossed but I'm not confident having not heard anything yet....

 

Anyone who applied for the final been charged?

This is me hoping that they haven't processed requests with the final in yet.

 

I applied for cat. 3 Final in my 7 individual games i applied for. I've been charged, but not at the price of the Final. So looks like i missed out.

 

Thanks.

No charges for me............ Would rather have something than nothing at this point though.

"Patience you must have"

 

Yeah, you probably don't want to hear it but I applied for a Cat 1 Aus TST7 and my card got an auth today of $3100.

I still think you'd be a chance though

 

No actual charge on my account from FIFA, but the difference between my "ballance" and "funds available is $1,762.
Hoping this equals to 3 tickets to 4 group matches in Natal (3 Cat. 2, 1 Cat. 1) plus $22.45 at a Mexican restaurant last night. Math adds up t0 it but no mention of FIFA on my CC account.

 

Ah shit.

Oh well, first come first served period it is then!
