Tickets on websites

Can someone explain to me how with reduced ticket allocation for all games and lots of us fans not getting all games and in some cases no games how have these websites got tickets. One site for the England v Scotland have only got 30 tickets left at £300 plus. Who do they get the tickets off?

    They probably don’t exist

    They are all mobile tickets which have to be activated via blu tooth at the ground before entry then your app shows a QR code to enter the turnstile.
    Any website claiming to have tickets is obviously fake!

    Beware Alexander. Unlikely to be legit IMO.

    Secondary ticketing sites often advertise tickets that they haven't got. Their expectation is that some people who do have tickets will, at a later date, put them on the site for sale.

    UEFA is not providing paper tickets. All tickets will be downloaded to a special Euro 2020 phone app. This phone ticket needs to be activated at the stadium on match day by a steward who adds a QR code to the ticket. This can only be added to a genuine ticket downloaded via the app. It is very unlikely that secondary ticketing sites will be able to supply genuine functioning tickets for the Euro 2020 tournament. For the reasons why, see my post of 18th May at 12:33 pm on this thread.

    I will never buy off an unofficial website, you don't know what you are getting.

    The problem is Alexander that when fans dont get tickets thru whatever ballot, they are more likely to pay £300 to a possible 'dodgy' website who claims they have tickets, than be able to afford the disgusting £1,700 that Wembley Stadium are charging for a hospitality ticket.

    So are we thinking the £2300 I just paid Online Tickets Express for 6 tickets the England v Scotland are fake?

    I got done over for euros 2016 pal but i paid with a credit card and got my money back. If you look at trust pilot for this company you see all the reviews so it looks like you could have lost out as well. Good luck

    I suppose it's possible that suits who got corporate sponsor's tickets might have put them up for sale. These could be paper tickets.

    Also, we don't know whether UEFA will use the full anti-touting capabilities of the mobile phone ticket app. They didn't use these capabilities at the Nations League in Portugal 2019.

    Ive just looked on ebay and there are only 2 tickets on there from some company in Germany. Is that because ebay ban football tickets still ?
