Note:
I selected 'bank transfer' as my payment method so i don't know if credit card users received the same e-mail.

 

How to distinguish a "genuine" member and a tout? Do you have "special" methods? How to become a member?

 

Phase4Nightmare -

Interested? Send me a PM with your swap proposal! Take care, Miguel

 

fair enough i guess

 

UPDATE

I am looking to swap 2 tickets CAT 3 Game 28 for 2 tickets Game 26 now.

 

Mr.Prawn,

can you open a special topic for ticket swap? Here I want to read about news and technical details about getting tickets and not to search among a lot of swaping offers. Not that I have anything against it, but I think you should create a topic only for swapping..

 

Does anyone know what was the amount of tickets sold in the first (and only) sales phase?

All together there'll be 1.050.000 tickets available:

• 33% of that amount (346.500) will be sold by uefa.com site,
• 38% (399.000) go to national FAs,
• 14% (147.000) to sponsors and
• 15% (157.500) to Vip guests, Uefa personnel, city hosts, etc..

There must be somewhere info on how many tickets (from those 33%) have been sold up to date...

 

Yes, there is! They sold 100% of those 33%.

 

Where did you read this?

 

Wonder that my post is disappeared?!?!?

Hope this time it works.

Cheers

o.k. no problem with this!

I'm member of the biggest german swap board for soccer tickets and pretty aware of newbies trying to swap!

In a few months, you'll see, how i tick

 

Here:

http://www.uefa.com/competitions/euro/organisation/kind=33554432/newsid=528630.html

Massively oversubscribed
For the tournament's 31 matches, a total number of 8.7 million ticket requests were considered - with the number of requests far outweighing the number of tickets available for all these games. In total a third of the available finals tickets will be allocated by the lottery. All applicants will be notified before the end of April whether they were successful or not.

 

Swap:

I have: 2 tickets (Catagory 1) for Switzerland-Portugal (Basle, 15 June)

I need: 2 tickets (any catagory) for France-Italy (Zurich, 17 June)

pm please.

thanks.

Thanks wombacik.. I was hoping that some of those 33% are left for next sale phases..

 

There are no additional sale phases!!!

Only possibility to get tickets in the future will be via the dedicated national associations.

In Germany the sale will start i mid of Jan (if I'm rigt... might be later)

Same for Switzerland and so on and so on

No official sale phase any more.
(thats what I've been told)

What a pity that they still haven't published any explanation concerning so called waiting list they used to allocate some tickets few weeks ago...

And BTW, try to book any room Klagenfurt during EURO games. This is ridiculus to organise tournament in such a small city with such a small stadium.

 

I had a very hard time booking a hotel in Bern two weeks before the draw.
Prices are ridiculous.

But i'm glad ik booked it BEFORE the draw, trying to book something now is next to impossible!

 

Absolutely right.

And it's not easy to go by infrastructure.

 

I made my bookings for QF weekend in Vienna three months ago and I am glad I did

 

I'm a member of the official Oranje supporters association, I was just informed we won't find out till january about ticket allocation and prices. Rumour has it that the Dutch FA gets 10,000 tickets per game. That means about 5,000 for the fans I reckon (the supporters association has almost 100,000 members). So it'll be luck of the draw again. Oh well, you get used to these things.

 

I have 4 Category II tickets to Spain vs. Russia (Match #7) in Innsbruck. I am looking to swap for 4 tickets to Germany vs. Croatia (Match 11). PM me if interested.
