    Where is the screen where you can see seat details from seats bought in phase V?

    We have such *&#@% useless bandwidth here - went in at 08h59 - nothing available - refreshed - site down and has been since then.

    Well done all of you that got tickets - I see now why the people here prefer queueing for hours - at least you have a better chance...

    I am sure my Cat 4's are all gone now.

    hahaha dissapointed? with FIFA handling sales?

    where were you son, before Germany 2006???

    Back then some argentinian masterclass helped me to tix for quarters, and semis! hats off to the man...

    back then it was all simple cookie manipulations...

    pretty confident i will score some nice tix thanks to Scorpio!

    :D

    I am sure that you will get them if you keep trying.
    when I was 'in' the only game that I noticed had no tickets was 64. It showed avaiability for cat 3 but when i went in there were no seats left

    Wow... well done FIFA.
    So even with the little amount of foreigners we were getting into the country, it's going to be even less now that the online sales have closed. Only the south african sales channels are working currently.

    My apologies to any1 who was planning a world cup trip to SA.

    Bought tickets online from the US no problem. Nothing to appologize for. Nobody was expecting the best from FIFA.

    Isn't it amusing how after the first 4 sale phases, some people are still yet to receive confirmation emails
    Now i just received confirmation email for tickets i bought an hour ago

    seems FIFA managed to sort one problem (the wholly less important one)

    Yep, just had emails for the tickets that I bought post first crash.

    No emails for the ones I thought I was buying pre crash, so I guess they didnt complete (which is probably just as well!)

    Once again, congrats to everyone who got final tickets. Unfortuantely I was unsuccessful. Got through to seat selection and payment page twice.

    I still have my fan zone tix to fall back on, which should be an experience.

    I still think that once it's back up we've not seen the last of the final tix as none for Cat 1 were avilable this time and I still hope that travel agents still have tix to return.

    Anyway, a fortnight to go to a holiday of a lifetime!

    I have not bought any final tickets but to be fair to those that have there are no $900 available and $6-400 is probably worth it if you have never been and probably wont again.

    That was pure mental!

    Got the Brazil-Portugal tickets OK, but I lost my final tickets THREE times after I had put in the payment details - GUTTED!















    That was until I checked my email - NOW I HAVE ONE CATEGORY 2 TICKET TO THE FINAL!!! :) Best day of my life (until July 11!)

    Also, in the confusion it appears I have bought 2 tickets for Brazil-Portugal! (one on each credit card :confused:)


    Once again, thanks so much Scorpyn. I'll get you a few pints for sure in SA.


    I hope everyone here gets the tickets they want.

    Literally been clicking "buy ticket" since 8:30 this morning and also got through to seat selection.. for finals... twice :(

    Basically read every single thread i've considered remotely interesting seeing as i was googling for sites that could perhaps circumvent the problem with the site..

    hope online sales go live again soon

    Just got an email confirmation for tickets bought an hour ago just before the big crash and there's a credit card transaction pending. If you are in any doubt whether your purchase went through [like I was!] then check with your CC company.

    I fear with the low levels of cat 4s that were available for these games you may now have missed your chance.

    so can people in SA currently buy tickets? if not they must be understandably very restless!
