    Guys, sorry this is probably advised online but I can’t see it - is the final chance to resell your tickets now gone?

    I have a category 2 ticket for the Hungary game but now have a clash and would like to offer it up.

    Is there any way for me to do this? It seems frankly ridiculous that 2 months from kick of there wouldn’t be some way to shift it.

    Cheers

    I’m pretty sure that for Euro2020 they had resales ongoing during the tournament. So would expect it to open again before the tournament but who knows. 

  2. Surely the way that JD are putting on the euros badges isn’t right?

    I spotted someone suggesting that the aren’t centred to the 3 stripes, because they are instead centred to the sleeve. It just looks ridiculous though. Can’t imagine the team will be running out like that.

    Has anyone bought the 150th top from - cough - 'other sources' and compared it to a JD one? 

    Mine arrived this morning and I'd be interested to see if anyone could tell the difference. Mine looks spot on.

    I’ve yet to see a DH gate kit that is indistinguishable from a real one.

    and are the e-tickets themselves named?

     

    The invoice itself looks legit with what I got via the SSC UEFA allocation.  I’ve not checked my own to see if it’s an exact match in terms of data/content. 
     

    In terms of e-tickets - nobody has them yet. They will be assigned to the name of the purchaser. 
     

    If they are transferrable tickets (doesn’t apply to SSC tix), then the act of transferring the tickets in the UEFA app will assign them to a new email address/person/name.

    Just wondering if anyone else on here was “lucky” enough to fork out a fortune for the handful of Cat. 1 Restricted View tickets for the opening game?

    I’ve been buzzing since getting me a my two young lads in, they were part of the official SSC allocation, so the fact that we’re in is amazing, but but can’t help but wonder what it will be like, especially considering how much I’ve paid to UEFA as opposed to some dodgy tout? 

    It’ll be fine. 
     

    It’s not like being stuck behind a pillar at Parkhead. 
     

    For the Euros, they’re very strict on classifying any minimal hindrance as a restricted view. It can often be if you are close to a handrail / barrier - for example, front row of a stand or seats above an entrance where the have a railing so you can’t fall.

    Yes they do, I have posted a few picture of jerseys I've bought from DHGate and given my feedback on them. I've never owned an official/replica of one I have bought from DHGate in order to totally scrutinize the material but from the ones I have, I would not even suspect they are not the real ones. 

    I kept hearing this, so bought a Nike (Barcelona) top from DHGate last season and bought the official kit from Nike at the same time to compare. 
     

    The differences were certainly noticeable to me, but I appreciate that it’s not a million miles off and also a big difference in price so a lot of folk will seemingly be happy with the DHGate efforts.

    I like it!  It's radical, and instantly goes into the love/hate debate.

    Robbo lifting the Euro trophy in that in July please.  

    Hated it at first glance. 

    It’s now growing on me. Something different I guess. I’ll reserve judgement until I see the full kit and proper images.

    I travelled abroad quite a bit last year- managed to make all the Scotland games and many visits for work.

    On numerous occasions I got locked out of my BT Email account, causing some problems checking in for flights etc.

    I had always assumed it was the kids logging in to watch BT sports etc... But on about the eighth or ninth occasion I called BT when I got home.

    Astonishingly I was told, and they have confirmed again, 'that BT Email is not designed to be used outside of the UK and we cannot guarantee it will work'. So, when we get out of the group and progress to thw final,  I am slightly concerned my email won't work when needing to buy tix.

    So, a long way to get to a daft question.... does anyone know if we change Email addresses with UEFA and SSC after we purchased tickets if it will affect getting them?

    I doubt anyone here is qualified to answer unless they’ve had a similar scenario. 
     

    Personally, I would check your UEFA account to see if it permits email address to be changed. 
     

    If it does, just go ahead and create a hotmail/gmail account and update both your UEFA and SSC accounts to use that.

    Was hoping it would be a wee bit more than 2400 allocation, daughter got no tickets for Euros & I Am going on my own, so I promised her Netherlands trip & possible she may not get that- we are going anyway but I wanted her to experience what its like with the tartan army at an away game all together - we may be forced to purchasing tickets in Dutch sections-not the same.

    Also hope there are no members purchasing tickets for loyalty points but no goin - unless of course they want us to use & scan them 😉 - sorry thats probably not a good joke

     

    I’d be shocked if it doesn’t drop to zero points mate so hopefully you and the wee yin will be fine for tix.

    That’s before my day. How did they allocate tickets for away games if there was no points system, first come first served?

    First come, first served - with a ballot, if oversubscribed. 
     

    I think sometimes they would implement differing policy on a game-by-game or tournament basis where they would decide the rules on an ad-hoc basis. 

  11. Haven’t read all the comments but can imagine plenty of complaints about the website. 

    I found it generally clunky and the seating map rendering on the screen wasn’t great.  
     

    The change of price categories wasn’t particularly user friendly.

     

    Having worked that out, I then made the mistake of assigning 2 of our adult members to child seats (and vice versa). There’s obviously no validation in place on the system as it allowed this to happen. We still have the correct number of adult/child tickets but not sure if it will matter in anyway.

    Shift in November?

    It’s February now.

    Good luck - I don’t think there’s any reasoning in this debate. 🤣

    I think it’s a step too far as well. 

    For the most recent home game I got offered hospitality. First time ever at Hampden hospo.
     

    I sold my ticket to someone on TAMB and managed to help someone out. If the same thing happened in future, I’d have to miss out on a point despite being at game, or miss out on the (twice) in a lifetime prawn sandwiches.

    Your bank/broadband/utility providers manage to successfully migrate to new systems without ever asking the customer 'to ensure your account is set-up correctly', and they have multiple more accounts to administer than the SSC.

    Whoever is signing off on SSC customer communications these days needs their backside booted up and down Carmunnock Road.

    Their decision to avoid any mention of the Netherlands game just smacks of almost fear to attract attention to the fact that they don’t have the answers. 
     

    Anyone working with a customer base (I work in IT) knows that it’s better to just issue an update periodically even if you don’t have the answer/solution yet. 
     

    All they’ve done is create umpteen people emailing them asking for information - for them to then have to respond. All because they just want to bury their heads in the sand. It’s mental.

    Email for us all today with reference to match package for 2024 home games-No mention of Netherlands match-log in still down on SFA website-so I emailed SFA again just now they replied -‘Netherlands game will be announced in due course’ 

    WTF, i mentioned Dutch FA have had tickets for sale for weeks & why SFA has not been pro-active in resolving this by now, that was ignored-really disappointed that it appears the effort in making arrangements to get to an away match, expense etc is not worthy of a better response

    It’s incredible that they would send out that email update without even a paragraph section to say that Netherlands tickets will be announced in due course (as a bare minimum). 
     

    Absolutely hopeless.

    I went there some years ago. If I recall, it was the pick of locations to visit around Munich, for a weekend break. Like a mountain resort town, plenty to see and do. I couldn't swear it was big enough to host a tartan army's worth of footsoldiers/drinkers though...

    Maybe the team are best left to concentrate on their fitba. 🤣

    Might be nothing, but yesterday on Linkedin, the SFA kitman posted a presentation video of a deal the SFA have signed to get bespoke numbers and letters for using on the team kits (Scotland crest will be printed on the bottom of each number) and the thing that stood out was that the new numbers and letters were yellow, which made me think if we are getting a Euro 96 themed kit.

    Would have thought we were tied to using adidas numbers?

    I think, in this instance its difficult to blame the SFA, as it seems Dutch FA are dragging their feet, I emailed SFA & they they are still waiting on the Dutch FA decision of allocation number, all the same it is frustrating

    Nah mate,  that’s too easy to let them off the hook.  
     

    There’s a list of things that need agreed to sign up to a friendly - potentially a contract agreement. The SFA are obviously just not prioritising this as part of their agreement/negotiations.
