    See the thing is, even if someone using the scanner informs you when these tickets are available, chances are by the time the tickets actually show on fifa site, someone using the scanner would have snatched them already. The scanner reserves those tickets as soon as it finds them giving you a head start of almost 3-4 minutes on ppl who are not using it.

    It's easy to use Gronum. Don't be afraid.

    I had the Cape Town one on my hook for a minute in the end. But, I was just getting in other people's way, and I threw it back in.

    Fun stuff isn't it? I tried it too just now. Scanned/reserved/cancelled, just for the heck of it.

    Yeah it was me - got 2 Cape Town Semi tickets (hopefully it may be England v Brazil) via the Scanner.

    Am I right in thinking the "View Your Application" link is down?

    And yes, Scorpyn78 does Rock!

    Thanks for the link - all tickets there ok! Note you need to go through the "home" page link or it doesn't seem to recognise your name and password.

    Thanks again, think we need a "Scanner Party" in Cape Town with you as guest of honour...

    Hi All,

    I managed to get tickets to a few group games through the normal process few months back but am now frantically looking to get tickets for the Final. Is the scanner tool I've heard so much about still available to download as it appears to have disappeared from the original link?

    Any advice much appreciated.

    Thanks

    Can you guys please now stop talking about yellows and cat 3 Eng tkts being available!

    I've spent the last three days in rehab at Scanners Anonomous and thought I had broken my habit.

    Just read todays posts and can't resist setting up a few scanners now that I'm going to bed.

    If I get woken up I won't be happy!!!

    I am new to buying tickets in this phase and am desperate for Spain v Honduras Cat 3. However, once i get to end it says attempts exceeded or something? Am I just too slow?

    I bought two sets of cat 3 tickets for the same game at the weekend. One set was purchased in dollars and the other set in Rand.
    I've checked my credit card statement and both have been processed.
    Because I live in UK the value has been converted to GBP.
    Interestingly the tickets that I bought in dollars cost £38 more than those I bought in Rand!
    My advice to anyone still buying tickets would be to set up a FIFA log in as a South African resident and save yourself some money!!

    Haha, this happened to me too, for some reason my wife's login has her country as SA and it can't be changed so when I bought the exact same cat tickets, one for her and one for me using our two separate accounts, hers ended up charged in ZAR and mine in USD resulting in about £30-40 difference of money actually taken from our accounts. Crazy!

    Face value I assume. If so I'd like the final ticket.
