EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Attention Eng Fans - Urgent

Day before a final and 3 people (lead bookers) I know are sitting with a ticket in their app that they can’t use due to a positive Covid PCR test but also can’t transfer. Uefa say too late for a refund and that we can’t transfer due to our membership rules!! They’re gutted enough they can’t go, but for the tickets to go to waste is disgusting. And your phone lines are not open to speak to anyone! Do you have any advice or suggestions?

    The problem with transferring the tickets would be if the FA deem this as a breach of the T&Cs (which it would be), they could prevent Craig from buying a ticket for the final even though his reason to transfer the ticket is genuine.

    We’re they tickets purchased through Eng Fans? If so, I assume they were not the lead Booker? If they were, how did they transfer?

    Yes Shaun but we’re happy to risk that as we all have Covid PCR test results to prove we can’t go. The problem is the actually physical act of transferring the ticket when it is a lead bookers ticket.

    They could download the app and use your log in? But then they risk being turned away if they are asked for ID, which is probably unlikely.

    Sounds like it was not the lead bookers ticket that was transferred then. I know how to transfer others within the order, but not our own once they have been ‘kept’.

    Only way to do it is to allow someone to log in to the app as the lead booker then send them the code to activate the app.

    Has anyone tried the proposed solutions in this thread ? Do they work ?

    englandsupporters.thefa.com/.../16427

    Regarding passing on your personal details to a total stranger, obviously that's risky. But Team England has said that they won't be checking passport numbers so maybe the recipient of the ticket could put his own passport number in.

    Sorted. Thanks for all suggestions.

    David it was much simpler than that in the end. Just log out and they log in on their phone.

    Thankfully a member gets to go and the ticket is not wasted.

    News: Pop-up party a great success!

    Jon Widdows from Chingford in Essex won a pop-up party at his house for the England v Costa Rica game on Tuesday, and said it was “one of the best Tuesdays ever!” He was able to invite 10 friends to his house for a party thrown by us, and...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Let’s hope England can bounce back like Brentford

    As a Brentford fan I’m used to suffering disappointments and England need to summon the spirit of the Bees to bounce back stronger than ever. The season before last we missed out twice on promotion from League One – on the last day of the season and in the play-off final – and I know all the players said they didn’t want to go through that again. This time round we came second to go up automatically...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: No shortage of memories despite the disappointment

    There we were at the stadium in Sao Paulo, instruments in hand with 10 minutes to go until England kicked off against Uruguay – it was do-or-die time for the team and we’d been waiting for an hour to hear if they were going to let us play inside. Suddenly stadium officials came to us and told us we couldn’t take the instruments in – that’s when the panic set in. We couldn’t miss the...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Costa Rica will be a platform for performance

    I was actually live on air the moment England’s exit from the World Cup was confirmed and it was a very odd few minutes. As a reporter you usually thrive on breaking news but this was so disappointing, so deflating for the nation that I almost...

    blogs: Mark Wright: Fresh blood for three points?

    As an England fan I’m trying to stay as positive as I can, but it’s difficult in this situation! I was at the Uruguay game and the atmosphere was incredible, even though the result wasn’t good at all. Roy Hodgson has made changes for the Costa Rica game and it’s time for some of the squad players to come in and show us what they can do. There’s no point playing the same guys who lost the...
