Has anyone received an email to say they've been allocated any tickets from 2nd chance sales?

We're meant to find out within 24-48 hrs and its 37.5 hrs now and no-one I know has heard a thing!
 
Apparently emails will be sent out tomorrow to both successful and unsuccessful applicants.
I agree it was a rubbish system and they needed far more transparency.
 
They promised between 24-48 hrs, as I submitted my order at 6.09am I should find out by then. If they're not sending them out until tomorrow then its yet another shambles!!!
 
Have heard nothing, I was on the site at seconds past 6am. Will be mad if I got nothing, having got nothing from applications from 2k worth of tickets, when I know people who got all they applied for.
 
My application was submitted at 6.50 so I should have an email very soon but I reckon they will wriggle out and say 48 working hrs or something to that effect. I thought this was first come first served else why did I get up early on my day off?? Im starting to get annoyed, I only ever wanted to see a dressage event, yet I know people with tickets to 15 different events, and I have nothing. Why could they not limit first applications to say 3 tickets each and then have any left over as a free for all???
 
Apparently they have now said that you would only miss out in exceptional circs if your application was confirmed.
BUT as pointed out on twitter by BBC sports correspondent they also said we would hear in 24 - 48 hours.
 
I applied by 620 and got them but I do think they need to come out for each sport and say how many tix available and the time they sold out.
They have said that those who missed out this time will be first in line for next batch of tickets but goodness knows what sports they will be for.
 
I applied at 6.09am and got three lots of tickets - two athletics and one football. Had to pay more for the athletics than I wanted to but at least I can now say I'm going!
