When is phase 2 starting?
2nd Ticketing Phase for 2010 FIFA WorldTM Cup starts on 4 May
Be quick and you should be lucky! The 2nd Ticketing Phase for the 2010 FIFA World CupTM will start on Monday, 4 May 2009, at Noon (SA Time). There will be approximately 100,000 tickets made available for this phase, excluding the two Semi-Finals and the Final (matches 61, 62 and 64). From now on, the tickets will be allocated on a “first come, first serve” basis. Applications can be made at FNB branches or via the FIFA website (www.fifa.com).
For South African football fans who wish to apply at FNB Branches, they should bring a valid form of identification. South Africans need to show their ID, while a passport will be required for foreigners. Applicants that wish to make applications for friends or family should have the details of those persons incl. identity numbers, names, dates of birth and nationality ready. Each applicant can apply for up to 4 tickets per match and up to 7 matches in total. Ticket prices start at 20 USD (140 ZAR). Within ten working days you will be notified, if your application is successful (fully or partly) or not.
Tickets will be ready for collection at FIFA Venue Ticketing Centres from May 2010.
We look forward to welcoming you and your guests to the 2010 FIFA World CuptmTM South Africa and hope you enjoy the experience.
Yours sincerely
2010 FIFA World Cup™ Ticketing Centre
Email from FIFA last night. 2nd phase excludes Semi & the Final. Not sure who's doing their currency converting, but I do wish it was 7:1 against the dollar!
Glad to know this isn't just happening to me.
So what if I book tickets for me and 3 friends (ID numbers given) and by that stage someone else wants to go with me?
Is it definitely a problem on their side? I'm always scared that it is some stupid SA web problem.
This is really frustrating. By the time I get to book tickets all 100 000 will be sold out. Has anyone got it right yet to book?
There only 100 000 for today??
If its only an SA problem that would really really suck
