So looks like i have some olympic tickets, either x country day or music kur final!
Eeeek!

Anyone else got the magic email?!
 
Had the email to say they tried to take my money but money wasn't available arghhhhhhhh but they will try again on the 2nd June! Does anyone remember how much X country was?
 
The money went out on wednesday or thursday last week. I rung up the bank and even checked. It is showing on my bank account now as well.

I got both sets I wanted. The individual dressage final and the mens football final at wembley so think I did pretty well. So excited!!
 
Applied for £1300 of tickets and have had £110 taken. Not enough to be SJ / XC / swimming / althletics.

Am disappointed not to have any equestrian tickets. Now just got to wait and see what I have got.

No email from them though?? I know they won't yet say what I've got but thought they were mailing to say money was being taken?
 
I'm really disappointed :( I only wanted 4 xc tickets, for which I was prepared to fly my whole family over to England at vast expense and even (and this is the worst bit) stay with my mother for a few days - but nothing has gone from my account :(:(

Stuff it, I shall stay in the comfort of my own home and watch it on the telly:D

Oh, and spend the several hundred quid I've saved on ,,..... oh ..... any ideas?:D;)
 
I only applied for some XC tickets for me and the children, nothing gone from my account so I guess I won't be going either.
 
Nothing from mine, either. Surely it's entirely unfair for some people to have two or more "sets" of tickets, and others to have none?

Not that I'm unhappy for those of you who have got tickets - I hope you enjoy yourselves :)
 
Still got till the 10th of June for money to come out so no need to worry :) I don't think they're doing it any particular order by the sounds of things
 
I'm seriously P****d off as applied for 8 different sets of tickets for various events which came to just over £2,000. Had nothing taken from my account so guess I'm not getting anything!!!

All "straightforward" payments will have been taken by midnight tonight:

Which leaves those of us with the money still sitting waiting in our accounts reaching the conclusion that it's not going to be taken :(
 
Not a penny taken, really really hope something goes out tonight as I would so love to see something at the olympics! I applied for the cheapest ticket to every equestrian date with the hope that I would get to see something, but it looks like I'll be watching it on tv, gutted.
 
:( I was still hoping as well, I did xc day, showjumping phase of eventing and the individual showjumping final.
 
Waiting to see if my application for 2 Eventing XC tickets has been successful. Haven't applied for anything else at all....

Feeling just a tad anxious!
 
I have just posted in the news post, we have had £300 taken out and all we applied for are 2 x Show jumping (eventing) tickets at the highest price band and it looks liek we got them.

Chuffed is not the word!!!
 
I applied for all the eventing and all the dressage (2 tickets each day). This came to £798 but I've only had £380 deducted. :D:D:D at the tickets I do have and :(:(:(:( at those I don't. It will be strange not to see all 4 days of the eventing having done all 4 days of the European Championships several times.
 
Disappointed not to get X country or the athletics tickets I applied for but I think I have got two for the team dressage final. It's only hit my on line bank account in last half hour. I thought I'd not been successful with anything so I am pleased to get the the dressage
 
Applied for 2 x dressage final, 2 x x/c and 2 x athletics. £136 deducted which I think must be 2 x dressage @ £65 - I'm sure I remember reading that there's a £6 handling charge. I think the dressage tickets were the ones I most wanted so I'm pleased.
 
Nothing here. But I had problems getting the site to accept the card details and had to use a different card so possibly didnt go through. Hey ho! I will watch it on the telly and think of all the money I saved!:D

At least I am not sat here wishing I had applied!:)

Congratulations to everyone who did get some. If you need somewhere closer to London to pitch a tent I have a field...But we are stilll about 40 miles away...:)

Loved the link - am still laughing at the 'Really Cross Country'. Almost made up for no tickets. Thank you!
