It will be the QR code - presumably it has been copied from a real ticket and so the first person to get there will get in but everyone after it will be screwed.

Probs the holder be there at 6.01

[30fiver]

People dont buy blags to get in, they buy em to get past the ticket checks then try and bunk the turnstile

They've already said this final will have the highest police presence they've ever had for a CL final, and its only Real Madrid

I wouldnt even try bunk, I'll be down there early

yeah not sure why people think they're actually using the code, it'll work too if the turnstiles aren't heavily protected

This Is Anfield understands that the fan zone will be located in the southeast of Paris, on Cours de Vincennes.

This appears to be a larger area than the square in Madrid, with the street itself being closed off. There will be large screens, food outlets and entertainment from the BOSS night lads.

There will not, though, be screens showing the match itself. The fan zone is expected to operate from 12 noon to 5pm local time.

Does the club not have a team of employees from the ticket office to police the reselling of tickets on resale sites like ebay. There are literally loads on sale on ebay claiming to have paper tickets. Asking for £1,500 for a cat 4 ticket. Should not be allowed

[sambhi92]

Is that at the barriers or just on the ticket machines?

I think both, i could see the visa and mastercard logo on the barrier but i had a ticket from the machine which i paid with my Barclaycard contactless via apple pay

no way that's even a legit listing. he's hidden his membership number but is showing his full name. either he's really stupid or he's just put a random name there, to go with his nearly new eBay account.

ultimately there's so much touting going on it probably means they'd need reliance on people reporting touts anyway. a lot of it is hidden away on whatsapp groups or via third parties too.

[blert596]

We had

No mate The Friendly punter on Twitter should I ask seat number etc ?

Some lad selling us 5 Cat 2 tickets for 3k but wanted half the money up front before he'd even received the tickets. Fucked him off.

[Forlan1987]

The person selling the ticket could be a user of the RAWK.

The fanzone WILL show the final.

178 tickets available on sale tomorrow for waiting list 359 to 467

must be tickets they cancelled today due to touting since there were only 92 tickets available to purchase yesterday?

Good on them if they have, just need another couple of hundred or so touted tickets to be cancelled. Still hope!!😀

[Dagro]

Aye, good point with the "manual" checks early on.

Echo your advice - worst I can think of was Athens in 07 where the stadium was woefully unsuited to hosting which combined with the fake tickets and other issues ended up with the police getting involved and fans getting tear gassed. I remember people coming flooding in about 10 to 20 mins in to the game having been gassed and it as shocking.

What didn't help in Athens was when you arrived they were handing out info leaflets which had the same background as the tickets. When you got to the outer perimeter people were just holding up the leaflet and being let through

Haha aye, my mates now sorted in the press box but his waiting list is 1800 - assume yours could potentially be possible - think we've no dice now.

Gutted really.

Could do with Coach Innovations dropping an email sometime soon.

I understand they are obviously still trying to sort things out but I'm sure plenty are like me and would find it helpful what time they'll actually be leaving

[Dagro]

Ticket arrived from Thursdays wait list sale today. Postie just posted it through, just like the FA cup final ticket

[End Product]

Just done my covid pass application on the app saying it could be 5 days to get it sent to the app?
Is it quicker than that in users experience ! May lay an egg if not .   

[Joff123]

Ticket came on the 21st from the ballot sale (monday) but wasn't in...


I never selected postage so I'm a happy man!! Get me to Paris.

On the tickets.. look like blags though.. so be careful if you're buying off a tout.

I would also book a cheap test if I was you as there is a lag between getting the jab and the app update.

I need to know if my coach is leaving 2 hours earlier than intended as I'm working Friday and originally planned to leave at 4 and be home to sort stuff before the 6:15 pick up. Now I'm going to have to leave at 2ish If it has changed so need to led my boss know. Hopefully we find out tomorrow.

I'm leaving Thursday, so ideally they'll let me know sometime before lunch tomorrow. Like I say I know they'll be busy but it seems a little late to be letting your customers know

I love going through ebay reporting them all to get the listings taken down, did bloody loads for Kyiv one day when I was bored at work!

[ooter1]

does anyone know of any cheap options back to Amsterdam from Paris on Sunday?
my lad taking that route and he reckons it's about 100 quid for a bus.

was only 15 quid when I booked the other way for Friday, cheapest I can see is 60 but gets in Amsterdam at 12am

[Lewy]

Thought this was interesting about the sale of alcohol around the stadium:
Sale of alcohol authorized until 6 p.m.
The experiment, failed, during the final of the Coupe de France will not be renewed. The sale of alcohol had been prohibited on avenue Jules-Rimet in Saint-Denis, in the bars in front of the Stade de France. This prefectural decision intended to reduce nuisance has on the contrary contributed to pushing supporters in need of alcohol to other less secure places. This caused fights and damage in areas further from the stadium, around the Gare de Lyon in Paris or at the Plaine Saint-Denis. For the Champions League final, the bars will be open this time around the Stadium. The sale of alcohol will be authorized there, but until 6 p.m., 3 hours before kick-off.

Look at options swapping in Lille.

[Lewy]

When a seller transfers his electronic ticket via the UEFA app to another person, can the seller withdraw the transaction / take the ticket back *after* the transfer has been done?

Bit of background here coz I got sorted from UEFA. Tickets were a max of 2. When you transfer the guest ticket (not the applicant ticket) like I just did it to my kid, you cannot get it back unless he sends it back to you. Once the recipient has control of it that is it. The recipient in turn can send it on to whomever they want. Also to get the tickets downloaded in the first place to the app (I'm talking about the applicant now) you have to register with the email you used when you put in for the ticket ballot and then they send you a code while you are registering for the app. So thoughts are as follows - the touts that are selling 1 ticket (hopefully the guest ticket) through a reputable touting site (cough cough) and offer a guarantee are "probably" an ok bet and can transfer to you pretty easily. The ones that are offering 2 - you would think they created a throwaway email account when they applied for tickets and will have to give you the PW to take control of that email account because the code UEFA sends you is only valid for a certain amount of time. So I am saying getting a guest ticket sounds a hell of a lot easier than getting an applicant ticket which requires a good bit or cooperation from them. Makes you wonder if a few people won tickets, will sell the guest ticket and then not bother showing up for their own but pocket a good amount of profit still.

cheers will tell him to check that out.

[Dagro]

Has anyone found a way of buying metro tickets in advance? The stations are going to be manic, and ideally i'd like to have the tickets purchased before getting to the stations.

I don't think that is true for the 2 tickets. I bought 2 in the re-sale on Thursday, after applying in the ballot. I have a guaranteed one from LFC, so I transferred both tickets to mates, just with their email address this morning. I did not have to give them my account.

I had the option of transferring both tickets I bought from UEFA in the 2nd sale. There was no indication of which of the 2 tickets were 'guest' or 'applicant'. I transferred 1 ticket to my mate, and marked the other as 'Keep' and it changed to show my name on it.  Maybe this is different to the original ballot tickets

[Lewy]

Now I look I do have a transfer option for the other ticket - so electronic tickets seem a safer bet for someone to get. It does look though that once you transfer you cannot claw back, correct?

Correct. As soon as I transferred it to my mate, it disappeared from my app. 1 long minute later it appeared in his app

Got a spare Eurostar available if anyone is short

Saturday 28th - 11:31 arrives 14:40
Sunday 29th - 8:13 arrives 9:30

Standard premier on the way out and standard on the way back cost me £389

Would have snapped your hand off at 9am this morning but managed to sort travel for just under £400 so can’t complain with that being a last minute job. Thanks for all those that helped.

[Barry Banana]

Not picking on anyone in particular but there’s a thousand people fretting about metro tickets in here. Has no one been to a city before? Get the station then work it out. Jesus.

[dmsouthy]

Has anyone found a way of buying metro tickets in advance? The stations are going to be manic, and ideally i'd like to have the tickets purchased before getting to the stations.

Keen to know this as well. I think I previously read that there is an app which is really handy but can’t find that message now

[Radoo]

I think the best bet is to buy a day pass from the airport after you arrive and travel to city centre.
