Souvenir Tickets

59239772 — Tue, 27 Apr 2021 20:35:00 GMT

As all tickets through ESTC were going to be delivered by smart phone app, the spring 2020 application process included the option to request souvenir paper tickets which would be delivered to people's registered address after the tournament.

As we are now having all of our tickets cancelled and refunded, any request for souvenir tickets will also be cancelled and the €15 cost will be included in the refund. This is confirmed in the FA News Bulletin. So, when those members who get tickets in the reduced allocation pay for their tickets, will there be an option to request souvenir tickets again ?

For the Nations League in 2019, UEFA offered the option to request souvenir tickets and many England fans planned to take up this option. The souvenir tickets had to be requested at the time of the ticket application but we weren't told this until after applications closed and I'm pretty sure that this option never appeared on the application page of the ticket website. When people pointed out to UEFA that the option had not been on the web page they were told that the orders couldn't subsequently be changed to include this option.

The 2019 experience makes me suppose that we will not have the option to request souvenir tickets under the proposed system for the reduced ticket allocation. This would be a pity as many ESTC members save their tickets in collections. Imagine England getting to the final and we don't have a paper ticket for the collection.

Since there is no cat4 is that classed as cat3 now? Just trying to decide to where to sit cat3 or cat2. I want to be bottom behind the goal but I guess we could end up in the gods?

Fans First

Anyone know how much the fans first tickets are and where they are based in the stadium? I've had Cat 3 so far blocks 107/115 and wondering likelihood of these tickets being lower tier blocks 100

Any idea how to get the access codes ?

Why are the FA allowing UEFA to sell England v Germany tickets when not all England Fans members have a ticket?

Defeats the object of being a member when you can just logon and buy a ticket.

UEFA Ticket Portal

2232753 — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 06:11:34 GMT

Anyone else experiencing long periods of plain white blank screen on UEFA site? Tried the turning off Wifi trick and not working…. Presumably too many people on at one time? Any hopes of a third "rushed" sale.

New ESTC member. Any chance I could get a ticket for germany

60047523 — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 14:09:14 GMT

Physical souvenir tickets

55053617 — Sat, 12 Jun 2021 06:46:47 GMT

(I could find the original post from some time ago that covered this so sorry if this has been resolved).

Does anyone know how to request a physical ticket please? This is not for entry but just to keep after?

I have all my England tickets and it’s also my sons first tournament game so want to have these and not just a screen shot of an app!

As part of the original process you could request a physical souvenir ticket(s) within your application that would be posted out a few weeks after the tournament for around €15 from memory.

Thanks in advance.

Euro 2020 ticket app

55020473 — Fri, 25 Jun 2021 22:29:06 GMT

Hi all... Has anyone had their tickets appear on the app yet? Got my email confirmation immediately after purchase yesterday, on which it said tickets would appear in the app no later than 5 days before the match so was expecting it to appear today, but nothing there so far. Thanks.

'Follow my team' tickets for knockout rounds....

58606922 — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 14:19:20 GMT

Hi,

Apologies if this is a stupid question but I haven't kept up with this.

I had tickets through 'follow my team' for the round of 16, Semi final and Final. (I am a travel club member)

Obviously UEFA cancelled these and refunded me the money.

Am I going to automatically be put into a ballot to have a chance to get a ticket to these matches again?

Thanks.

UEFA shambles - £800 worth of tickets refunded and NO games in ballot.

59505397 — Thu, 13 May 2021 22:47:35 GMT

Absolutely devastated at the news today.

Applied with a friend - me (16 active CAPS, him (11 active CAPS). Allocated every single England game recently refunded £800 give or take each.

Into the ballot and every game unsuccessful except;

We applied together and I’ve been given a Croatia ticket category 2 and he hasn’t. I’m clearly not in the top 70% of cappers, but they’ve allocated me a Croatia ticket and not the other two. He has been UNSUCCESSFUL in ALL group games. How have they decided I’m eligible for a Croatia ticket, but not Scotland or Czech.

Applied together, been screwed together. We are both bitterly disappointed. I’d rather have both of us been unsuccessful than me obtaining ONE out of the possible SIX tickets between us both.

None of it makes any sense and tbh I don’t really want to go to a game on my own. It just defeats the object of going with friends / family and having that special atmosphere.

Can anyone please explain to me ( top top cappers, with a lot of experience of following England for donkeys years) how I have somehow been accepted to one game and not the others?? This ballot seems to be drawn as random as it gets and it’s wholly upsetting after all the summer we have looked forward to for the best part of two years now.

Deflated.

Moan about entry time slots

59239772 — Sat, 05 Jun 2021 09:12:16 GMT

We have known for some time that there would be 30 minute stadium entry time slots and the reasons are justifiable. But I was shocked to see that the earliest time slot is 3 to 2.5 hours before kick off. Let's give the time slots some scores.

1 = 1 to 0.5 hours before kick off
2 = 1.5 to 1 hours before kick off
3 = 2 to 1.5 hours before kick off
4 = 2.5 to 2 hours before kick off
5 = 3 to 2.5 hours before kick off

On that basis, my score is 5 + 5 + 3 = 13

Couldn't they have spread the misery a little more evenly ? I have to spend 8 hours behind the wheel for a round trip to Wembley fixtures which makes it a long day. I don't welcome having the day made hours longer. It's particularly annoying to have been given the earliest time slot for the Croatia match which kicks off at 2:00 pm. I'll need to leave the house at a time when I'm usually still in the Land of Nod, only to have to sit on a plastic seat twiddling my thumbs for longer than it takes to fly to the Med.

The group matches only have 25% crowds. What will happen for the semi-finals and final when it is confidently expected that 50% crowds will be allowed ? Will some fans by instructed to arrive 6 hours early ? Of course not because the stadium only opens 3 hours before the match. It will be the same time slots as above. If 5 time slots are enough for a 50% crowd then you don't need more than 3 time slots for a 25% crowd.

I call upon the Wembley stadium authorities to immediately issue a statement saying that, for any fixture with a 25% crowd :

Fans allocated the entry time slot 3 - 2.5 hours before kick off may enter in the 2 - 1.5 hours time slot
Fans allocated the entry time slot 2.5 - 2 hours before kick off may enter in the 1.5 - 1 hours time slot
