    Yeah you just have to keep checking. Get e-mail alerts to this thread too as last night when I posted up that there was tickets available to a some events a few people got the NFL tickets. If I notice any again I'll post in here as I'm sure others will too.


    Mighty thanks. Have flights and accommodation booked so free tickets would be very much appreciated!

    Just got it now thanks

    Just got the Sky Go Extra offer today, despite having had the app installed since the day this thread kicked off and being Platinum level all the way along. Dunno if getting Spiderman earlier on pushed me ahead on some sort of notional spend chart... either way, kaching!

    When I'm on the last part of the ordering process for Spiderman it keeps saying lost internet connection even though I'm fully xonnected.. anyone else have this problem?

    Just tried it now and it sailed through. Maybe trying signing out and logging back in again?

    Is this an error by SKY or are they just legit getting rid of stock?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,178 ✭✭✭carltonleon


    No problems with mine either, straight through


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭irishfeen


    Any one call sky as a black customer?? ... It said representative available in 3 minutes, I was holding 20 min after dialing... the fast track must only be available in the UK.

    I was on twice this week rang 0818719819 and it recognised my number and got through within minutes.

    Same when I called them for the mother and father was speaking to someone in less then 2 mins.

    They never gave them the touch remote so had to order it for them

    London NFL games have been removed from the list of tickets on the app! :-/


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭irishfeen


    Loads of Premier League Games have been put up and put to "Coming Soon" status inc. Liverpool v United, United v Spurs, Everton v Arsenal, Spurs v Liverpool, Chelsea v Watford with a few more.

    It's also disappeared from my bookings!!

    I had 2 tickets booked for this and had paid for flights. Has anyone else who had the tickets booked still got them in their bookings?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 783 ✭✭✭nsa0bupkd3948x


    Expect a bad news call soon...

    You'll get travel/accommodation expenses refunded.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,085 ✭✭✭markc1184


    I got a voicemail from +443331005000 earlier. It was Sky VIP ringing with regards an event I had booked tickets for. The NFL game is all I had booked. Says they will ring back again later on.

    You won't be going to the NFL I'm afraid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,753 ✭✭✭CZ 453


    Has the event been cancelled?

    Nope, but due to a tech issue, they allowed far too many people book the tickets through the app and they don't have enough.

    Had the same problem myself. Flights and accommodation refunded if you wish and a courtesy gift.

    Frustrating but such is life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    Thanks for the replies. As long as I get the flight money refunded I don't mind too much. Woulda been nice to go but once I'm not out of pocket I can't complain too much.

    Have to say the lad I was talking to was sound. Can't be a nice way to end a Friday having to ring everyone telling them they aren't going to the NFL.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭irishfeen


    What was the courtesy gift out of interest? offered other tickets?


  • Registered Users Posts: 247 ✭✭17togo


    At least I can stop checking the app every 5mins now I suppose!

    They're refunding but not requesting that you don't go. So you can have a weekend in London on them!

    150 ticketmaster voucher either in euro or sterling (but for the relevant store only) or a year's free Sky sports.

    Ah very good. Anyone have a number to contact them on? My dad got the missed call earlier (sky account in his name) when I tried ringing back it just says someone from sky tried to contact you and will be in touch again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 360 ✭✭georgewickstaff


    Oh no...i got 2 tickets for my friend and his young lad. He is NFL crazy..

    They paid 300 for flights.

    He has not been called yet. I wonder who will get a call? Me or him?

    Tickets are in his name

    Could be tricky. Main ticket holder is meant to be in the account holders name or another authorised person. Might be an idea to temporarily put your friend down as an authorised person on your sky account


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    Just got my call. Free sky sports for the year and travel refunded. Very lovely person I spoke to. Also said to go on trip anyway if I wanted. It'd be refunded anyway.

    While I'm disappointed the nfl tickets got cancelled I have to say sky handled it superbly.

    I would assume proof of flight purchase is required, as some could try it on saying they are flying from Australia if no proof required.

    Yeah I've forwarded on my booking confirmation email.
    But they said the flight would be refunded by sky, it won't be cancelled so still free to travel if I want.

    Got offered €150 Ticketmaster voucher or sky sports for the year. Went for sky sports. Had nothing booked so not a bad deal in fairness


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,085 ✭✭✭markc1184


    Got my call. Opted for the €150 ticketmaster voucher.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭rameire


    Just had the call, got the Sky Sports.
    Dont forget to put in your calendar for 11 months time a reminder to cancel the subscription.

    Hey guys bummer about the tickets but at least we get something for nothing. Can someone please send me the email where we're supposed to send our travel details as I can't find the envelope I wrote it down on.
    Thanks.

    I hadn't my flights booked as waiting to see about getting time off work. I have 2 nights booked on booking.com with free cancellation though. Can I book flights and go over anyway and get refunded?

    as some could try it on saying they are flying from Australia if no proof required.

    Don't think Sky is available in Australia?

    Have to say though great customer support from Sky.
    Full refund and a €150 T/M voucher or Free Sports for a year (which costs them next to nothing).

    Highly unlikely. They'll see when they were booked when you submit a receipt and log the time of the call when you were advised they were cancelled.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,695 ✭✭✭flangemeistro

    I'm not too sure about that. Like there was still a week to book flights.
    If you have your accommodation booked and everyone else is being told not to cancel and enjoy the weekend then what makes him any different?
