    Got Lyon and St Denis. Happy with that, just need to confirm once I've had a look at how they fit together on my calendar. Booking on mobile was not fun, got booted out 3 times.

    Adding the quarter final was actually really easy to miss.

    When it brings up the list of fixtures you are buying there is a white box at the bottom with the quarter final and you had to check a box there. I very nearly missed it.

    Ah well - sure at least we got the other 4 tickets

    QF were an option with the team packs today.

    The final is likely to be a ballot.

    On a side note there will be an official secure platform to sell any unwanted tickets launched next year.

    I was never able to get in, still cant, the OH managed earlier and was able to get what we wanted, didnt like her Mastercard CC, went in a loop twice, and brought us back to the cart, tried my Debit card and worked straight away.

    2 other friends were trying, one got in before us, had similar CC issues, but got what she wanted, the other friend eventually got in but didnt manage to get anything yet

    That was one mess.

    I got on to the queue, on my laptop, just after 10.30am and entered the email address for the alert.

    Eventually at about 12.45, I tried on my phone as well, and this time got straight into a 55%, then it dropped incrementally to 0. At the point of giving it all up, I got in on my phone at 13.10 (the laptop was still waiting for a % !). For me all the Ireland packs were gone, so I had one look at the St Denis packs, and there seemed to be plenty of Cat 3 up. So ended up with

    Australia v E1
    SA v Ireland
    Scotland v Ireland

    That'll do but hopefully i can get some of the Ireland tickets for Sept 16th later.

    BTW, when the laptop screen did let me in, the site had never sent me an alert email.

    Yes, that was the other problem, I had to try my Mastercard 3 times, then got a verification number that was texted on the 4th try....talk about stress !

    You'd imagine with the scheduling of the fixtures that a lot of people will be looking to offload games 1 & 2 from the pack

    The full week between games is a bit of a nuisance. Spending 4 weeks in France for the pools is too long for most.

    The way I look at the pack though the value is in the 2 later pool games (plus QF if you got it). The first two games are basically freebies on top.

    I imagine there'll be some packs returning to sale if people don't confirm their reservations over the next couple of days.

    Maybe some held back for after the mastercard exclusive period too?

    There's another release on Thursday for the rest of the pre-registered people who have Visa cards.

    General sale is April 6th too.

    They will stagger the sales.

    It should be relatively easy to get tickets, the French generally wont go to neutral games.

    Are the tickets print outs or do they send you physical tickets?

    Does anyone know if you'll be able to re-sell any tickets that you got as a "Follow Team Pack" on an official resale site?
    For JapanI bought and sold single tickets via official site but didn't have a team Pack

    Yes I believe there will be an official site for that in due course

    Managed to snag a Paris pack - the whole process was an absolute shambles though! I was through to the end of the queue 4 times and either ended up on the home screen unable to login or got the Error 503 screens!

    Two quick questions:

    1. Has anyone who's been in the SdF before know what the view from the Cat3 tickets will be like? I had a look on that View From My Seat website and the one picture of the stadium they had from behind the posts looked pretty decent!

    2. Assuming I end up going to the AUS v (Georgia?) game, are there any bars in the vicinity that would be showing the IRE v EUR2 game before kickoff? Based on the times it looks like we play in Bordeaux at 15:30 and the AUS game kicks off at 18:00.

    I've had cat 3 tickets in Stade de France before and for the money I think they were descent enough. Going on 2007 experience every bar/pub will be showing the games...was great craic!!
