Olympic tickets

I've not heard anything either, but apparently they are going to continue to take money out until 10 June so I'm not convinced that today is the absolute last day - hang in there people!0

No sign of anything taken out of my account or anything pending either so I hope it is still the 10th June. We have requested tickets for 1 event, a rowing medals day, as we could only afford one event. Have got 3 boys so desperately want to give them the chance to go to the olympics. Fingers crossed!0

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-13592886Most card payments are due to be taken by midnight on Tuesday.
Organisers will then be contacting people whose cards have failed until 10 June, and people will be told which tickets they have bought by 24 June.
So most people should have their money taken by midnight tonight.0 -
no tickets either - keep checking the bank account but nothing
maybe i should have gone in for more but only wanted to go for what i could afford - such a shame my daughter was really hoping to go

Nothing here either and only 1 out of well over 10 of my friends has got anything either.Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
I got tickets
2 events and I know what they are
Tennis Centre Court Wimbledon tickets - 29 July 2012 12:00-20:00 - can't first rounds for mens, womens and the doubles of each too.
Football - not sure which one lol
So I'm happy about Wimbledon, football I thought maybe I should get it as an almost guaranteed ticket to the olympics! My brother doesn't seem to have any, so he'll be first in line with the others who didn't get any for the next 'round' of ticket buying!
I got £150 of tickets out of £1150 applied for - 5 events applied for including £150 opening and closing ceremony for 3 people, got 20 -
I am really peeved. Still nothing for me or anyone I know who applied for child priced tickets. This whole thing was a farce and I want my council tax money back (stamps foot in rage)!
But seriously, I do!!!!0 -
Am totally gutted, just checked my account for about the 300th time, at just after midnight and no tickets for us. Am dreading telling the boys in the morning. Have just read that the government has applied for 9000 tickets, I wonder if they were successful at getting all 9000!:(0

Nowt here either. Ce la vie, thought I would have some luck too with the earlier events but that's life. Still hope but never mind.0
