Ireland France SOLD OUT

What might be happening is that people are getting access to the site, but the page doesn't change. There is then a 30 minute time-limit once you're in, after which the session expires.

fungie · 28-05-2015 12:24pm

according to the website there were still some cat A,B,C at 12 o clock.

Saw that too; honestly dont believe them though.

cee_jay · 28-05-2015 12:27pm

I had 2 Cat C tickets for the France game in my basket, but kept getting session time out and "An error has occurred" messages when trying to pay. Tehy are gone from my basket now and back at the circle....

WeleaseWoderick · 28-05-2015 12:27pm

Got kicked back to the circle after unsuccessfully trying to order tickets for either the France match or the Quarter Final.

Giving up now as my mental health can't cope with the website anymore.

how do you log out of the rwc website

aimee1 · 28-05-2015 1:17pm

website still says a/b/c cat tickets available for all our games. no surprise seen as they dont let anyone pay for tickets

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 1:32pm

I hate that circle

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 1:35pm

I think the circle has broken. Not moving anymore

refresh back to the start :eek:

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 1:38pm

The circle is slowly destroying my soul

BananaR · 28-05-2015 1:40pm

Why does it just stall completely as soon as it reaches the final 3rd of the circle?!!!!

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 1:42pm

The circle on my phone which I started about an hour ago (and completely forgot about) has reached nearly 5 to!!

I logged back in and went straight to 10to, maybe the numbers are dying off a bit

thomond2006 · 28-05-2015 1:54pm

£15 postage.

They can **** off tbh. That's the final straw. Charge extortionate prices and then throw €21 postage. Screw this.

gypsy79 · 28-05-2015 1:55pm

Got in and it is pretty simple. Only Cat A and B left for France Ireland

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 1:57pm

How much are Cat B?

NoelJ · 28-05-2015 1:58pm

175 for France 125 for Italia

xredmanlfcx · 28-05-2015 2:04pm

Finally in. Got tickets for Ireland v Canada and Wales v Uruguay. First weekend in Cardiff sorted. Only took 4 hrs....

Does anyone know if the block/seat numbers that it allocates you in your account are correct? I saw somewhere seats are not allocated untill later in the summer.

Congrats...worth the stress so!! I'd imagine that is the seat number you will get but I''m not sure

i got timed out for the 4th time. this is soul destroying. must have said 'must not hit f5' to myself a thousand times

Ya because as I feared, knowing my luck, I got better seats for Welsh match than I did Irish match. Just going to Wales/Uruguay for the craic and the atmosphere. Bought Cat D for both, got right behind goals lower tier for Wales. Upper tier in the corner for Ireland. Ah well, in is in! Some hit to the bank account though, here's hoping we win the lotto between now and September!!

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 2:11pm

Its pay day tomorrow, will soften any big loss on the bank account!

I was charged £5 for one order (delivery in the UK), and nothing on another (delivery in UK again). Can't remember why there was a difference. EDIT: might be cause they'll send the second order with the first.

I did get an email saying the tickets are sent by Royal Mail in the UK but DHL elsewhere. So DHL is going to cost more obviously.

I logged in yesterday and near my details when logged in it showed where my tickets were for the QF game

chris_c · 28-05-2015 2:20pm

This is a joke of a system you would think ticketmaster would know better. Three times I have got in and it keeps timing out

Ascii · 28-05-2015 2:21pm

On one computer above the circle it tells me
"please do not refresh as you will loose you place in the queue"

On the other computer I am trying it on it does not have that message.

Been in queue since 9.30. Why da fook would they announce the extra tickets going on sale...and create mayhem. For the last week they have been popping them up occasionally and they were being bought with no delay.

No CAT C or D for the first QF in Cardiff...twill be a stretch to get Cat B's

2pm update

AB for france game
ABC for Italy game

K3v · 28-05-2015 2:27pm

A & B ticket prices for the France game are a bit too much for me.

you would think they would be able to drip feed/put them on different systems to lessen the nonsense. the circle moves slowly for me then when it gets to the end I get a grey screen saying timed out.

No C tickets for Italy 30 minutes ago.

That list is obviously manually updated and not reflective of the true situation.

molloyjh · 28-05-2015 2:43pm

The whole thing is a farce. I never even got past the f-ing circle. And then to charge a fortune for tickets and €21 postage is criminal. What are they posting it in, a solid gold envelope?

Seriously, they can f**k right off.

updated 5 minutes ago with that info. its just a report run and posted, seems to be upto date. Miracle really considering how difficult it is to give them money

finbarrk · 28-05-2015 2:46pm

Couldn't be bothered with that rubbish. I'll just buy one on the day.

TheDoctor · 28-05-2015 2:51pm

Back to about 20 to on the circle.

woooo.... (kill me)

im giving up for now. hopefully wont be as mental later and will pick up tickets for the canada or romania games

Brianderunner · 28-05-2015 2:58pm

Lads if you want tickets for these matches get online between 9-10am most mornings when they release batches of tickets. This is totally unannounced and random. It does mean a lot of checking of the website but it's quick and painless. No circle of doom.

These planned sales are a joke. I was in a queue for 7 hours before giving up last time and swore not to this time.

AidanD12 · 28-05-2015 3:05pm

At long last got the QF tickets after half the day trying and weeks of checking. What an absolutely ridiculous queueing system they have. Why don't they just use Ticketmaster for it as they manage to shift millions of tickets without any of this crap.

I used several tabs open at the same time. Kept one static and let it plod along without any refreshes. Refreshed all the others periodically and for some unknown reason one tab would refresh and jump way up the queue to maybe 10% left. No idea whether that circle if reflective of where the queue is at or not but anyway got there in the end. Nearly fell at the final hurdle as the credit card rejected it but thankfully bank phoned straight away and cleared it for me.

Feic I'm wrecked! Now where do I start looking for flights and accomodation ;-)

Clearlier · 28-05-2015 3:08pm

Finally got in after nearly 5 hours. Only cat A left for France and Italy. Can get 4 tickets for cat D for Canada which I couldn't get before but on the fence about spending the money - need to decide quickly!

Go for it lad. It'll be a great experience. If you change you're mind you'll always shift the tickets.

Ascii · 28-05-2015 3:11pm

Two of us trying and I got no where. Other lad got in and managed to buy the required tickets in CAT C for the two quarters....do not give up :-)

I did do it in the end.

We already have tickets for the Romania game with my brother and his son. This was a question of whether to bring my wife and two boys. The eldest was actually at the Ireland v Georgia game in 2007 as a 6 month old - here's hoping for a better match this time around!

Shedite27 · 28-05-2015 3:31pm

Just had a rush of blood - picked up 4 for the QF on the Saturday night. Now have 4 for either QF.

Steven81 · 28-05-2015 3:34pm

What cat on saturday night are left
