I've just had a '1 ring' missed call from Ticketmaster (08442774442). I was worried about my Olympia tickets at first but that's Seetickets - the only dealings I have with Ticketmaster is my failed Olympic ticket bid. Has anyone else had a call?
 
Looking at it as have seen that those of us with failed ticket applications will have another pop on Friday to buy more tickets. Trawling to find the notice!
 
Managed to grab a ticket for the Freestyle dressage/medal ceremony. Really chuffed with that although could only afford one so have to go on my own. Got on at dead on 11am, tried for the cheapest tickets for most things but nothing available including cross country so had to pay a bit extra but really glad I got something. No problems with getting on this time and payment went through straight away. Pity it wasn't so simple first time around.
 
I didn't even bother - was a bit peed off with the process the first time round - I only wanted 2 of the cheapest SJ tickets yet people got the thousands of pounds of tickets they didn't really want. I figured I'd not be able to get any cheap tickets now either.
 
Well please do read the email properly..as I didn't!!!! There is a long list of when you can apply for certain events...!
 
I tried to get tickets for eventing xc since 11.10 am this morning but no joy. I think the whole ticket thing is a shambles. It's not the easiest site to navigate & understand and the process is painful. Such a shame as I was really looking forward to going to probably the only Olympics I'll ever be able to get to. Funny how the Thomas Cook hundreds of £££s packages with expensive hotels are still available! Not a happy bunny :-(
 
It is a bit off, since I applied for cross country last Friday and none were available and yet they were today. Happy with the ticket I've got but I think cross country was my first choice.
 
I managed to get three dressage tickets in the first round, but one of my friends tried to get us eventing tickets - xco first choice, sj second - or, failing that, more dressage but couldn't get anything. He gave up in the end.
