    Same here. Reckon that's the same as a no so. Unless the overseas ballot hasn't been loaded yet so system can't find it.

    I'm praying it was that, five years I've entered oversea ballot and still waiting. Really should have researched more and chanced using my sisters London address. Ah well.

    Was wondering the same about this overseas ballot, although thinking back we didn't need to register a user account the same way a UK resident would have done?
    I don't have any emails from them with details of a user account being created.

    I had submitted a ballot place entry and did recieve the email a day or two later, so either we are all NO or they haven't got the same process for overseas?

    Anyone here got in using the overseas ballot previously?

    We did have to register an email address and password. I got the confirmation email at the start of May.

    I clicked the link to retrieve my password from them at 8pm last night and still haven't received it so that leads me to believe that the overseas ballot places have not yet gone live on their site.

    I'm still being told they can't find my details so I'm assuming that means I wasn't lucky. Had really gotten my hopes up too :(

    Ya, I got the Ironman mag and get the same response when trying the link. Fingers still crossed for the overseas ballot.

    I'm surprised that such a high percentage of boardies got UK ballot entrys

    I entered the overseas ballot and there's no sign of an email and I'm not found on the system either.

    I assume that they'll have to give some indication to us either way.

    They surely can't just expect us to ascertain our own answer from not being able to login to a system.

    Saw on thread on Runner's World that some believe the Overseas emails will go out on Friday, tomorrow.

    Apologies if this has already been asked and answered a bazillion times but....I though GFA was for UK residents only?

    So are those who say they have qualified GFA UK residents? Or using someone else address or something?

    Never mind..........I just read the start of the thread. What a palaver! I'm way too law abiding for that so will just do Manchester or something instead :)
