This Spanish site will have tickets on sale on Monday. Although from what I can see, it seems like you can only buy tickets in batches of 2.

Entering http://www.aristeiasport.com/en/ into the London2012 'ticketing website checker' gives the answer below. So can we purchase with an Irish address? http://www.london2012.com/about-this-website/ticketing-website-checker.php

Any idea re booking/handling fees? Can't find it on the site. London2012 is £12. What does the * mean after the price
Price wise, seem comparable to London2012 site?? Checked a few.

Well that was another big letdown. Had all my details entered the other day and had the website open in work all day, not knowing what time they would go on sale Spanish time. Around 4pm Oz time onwards I checked every 15 minutes or so. I probably snoozed a bit and checked at 6.03pm (9.03am Irish time), about 4 minutes after I had previously checked, and everything was gone except for crazy expensive packages. Annoyed that I didn't check at 6pm on the button but there must have been only a few athletics tickets available. Another cod!

The packages are a rip off. 880 per person. You have to buy them in pairs, and the extras were about 320 euro. So almost 2k for 2 people for 2 nights of althletics. No way can I afford that.

Getting very fed up of this now.

I registered with them also, thought it said a mail would be sent when selling started.

You might pick up something in London.

Meanwhile, I've entered about 4 Olympic competitions the last month, and while doing so randomly entered another few and won 2 . All sports tics

It's not over til it's over. Remain positive??

Just checked my hotmail and I received the email at them at 9.02am Irish time. I started looking for tickets at 9.03am Irish time and they were all gone. You really needed to be on the ball, and extraordinarily lucky to get the tickets they had.

The package tickets are still available. Rip off.

Yee both have tickets (OK, OK.........).

Betcha I'll win. I'll e-mail ye when I do :cool:

I thought yee had tickets to one event or another, thou not necessarily the one you wanted. Wrong person?!

I tried logging in last night, all good, account & password in order.
Trying this morning to get logged in ahead of time & the server is screwed up already, more than 90 minutes ahead of release.

Anyone else seeing the same problem?

So what url are you using?
I've tried the link from london2012.com which goes to www.tickets.london2012.com/homepage

but I get a permission denied message there.

EDIT:- Just realised it thinks I'm in the USA due to my workplace and is blocking me on this basis. FFS.
Gonna have to try and get them from my phone.
