This type of question has been posted many times (usually in relation to children who don't have phones). Assuming he is attending with someone with a phone the answer is in the FAQ linked in your ticket email
Hampden Park Ticket App | Scotland National Team | Scottish FA

I completely missed the fact that you have to buy individual tickets up front as well! I just assumed those would be released 2/3 weeks prior to each game SCC first, then public.

I asked you this before and you didn’t answer. How can someone prevent another member having enough points ? There are tickets available to every member for home games so every member has an opportunity to get a point per game .
My understanding of his argument is that he had 11 points and attended all home games bar one (probably Poland game). There are others who bought tickets for all games but didn't attend them all who are on 12 points. They got first stab at Euro tickets while those on 11 had to sweat it out.
If this new system for home games means tickets are non transferable and it is actually recording if the ticket is used or not then the points totals of quite a few are going to start to drop....
As is evident above, this is largely irrelevant for a lot of people who don't travel to away games and they don't seem to understand the issue.

Finishing 3rd of a 4 team group is garbage.
Means the whole things is totally unfair dependant on what group you’re in. Some group winners getting to play teams 2nd place. Other teams finishing 2nd facing others that finish 2nd. Some group winners facing 3rd place teams. Some groups finishing later than others so knowing a 0-0 for example gets them through rather than a 2-2 and crap like that.
Was far better before. 2 through. 2 out. All Group winners facing a runner up.
But it created an extra 8 matches and that means money.
Ofcourse I won’t complain if we make it through. But whole things is amateur hour. Having 24 teams play 3 matches each just to eliminate 8 teams is stupid.
Agree with this

Finnish 3rd, then got to wait and see what happens, then its a case of we might be playing in Cologne or Gelsenkirchen on the 30th, Frankfurt on the 1st, or Munich on the 2nd
.....or one of the two teams going home.

Pretty sure this has been covered else where but that's my reading of it.
Good could luck proactively organising something for that! Campervan seems the best option to me.

You and the rest of the my seat brigade are the biggest part of the problem when it comes to the OP and others finding a solution to what appears is going to be an issue for many.
So is your suggestion that no seats are allocated and it is a free for? That would be a nightmare!
The issue most are having was the inability to book tickets as one booking so people have ended up in different Categories. We have two FF and one Cat 3 ticket for both Germany and Hungry game. I am happy to link order with anyone and then arrange a swap on the day if we are all in the same stand (ie you can walk between the seats).
-
I may be wrong, but I suspect the OP son is not under 18, otherwise the orders would be linked?
That said, I think the tone of this thread was more about sitting with your mates and ignoring seat allocation. This may be fine with a half empty stand, but all these games are sell outs so the knock on effect of a bunch of people moving impacts everyone.

I have to admit, i thought the Wonky Sheep 3 game trip was very reasonably priced.
I agree. We organised ourselves and will probably only be marginally cheaper than their quoted price. For us it would have been a bit of a gamble waiting for their package, but certainly looks like a great deal for anyone who has not booked up yet!
And no, I'm not on commission!

It’s brutal at Hampden when people can’t act like adults and be away from their mates for 90 minutes and you end up with 30 people crammed into a row with 25 seats.
It’s not just at Hampden though. If you turn up to an away game and someone is in your seat and you sit elsewhere then whoever that seat belongs to will likely ask you to move and the whole thing is a pain in the arse.
If you (or anyone else) is in my seat at any of our games next June you will be politely asked to move.
If you can’t bear to watch the game without being surrounded by a larger group of your mates then I suggest you watch the game in the pub or fan zone.
Totally agree. Considering all sections are sold out for the Euros I find it surprising how insular some of the views are!

I think we all agree that UEFA pricing, particularly for the opening game, is nuts. Considering how much revenue comes from TV, Sponsors and Corporate it is sicking.
However to play Devils advocate...
I would rather that the expensive tickets were made available to SSC members than the open market. I don't know the numbers for France 98, but I suspect the allocated tickets were considerably less than 10k especially for the opening game (I had 1.8k in my head but can't find any reference to that). We have 6.5k tickets under €200 for a "marque" [sic] game.
Looking at the other two games, some were quoting that historically we would get between 12-16% of the ground capacity. Even if you take the upper limit of that for Stuttgart and Cologne it is less than 10K.
Personally I don't think it would be that hard for UEFA to delay public sales of tickets to allow the qualified nations a much larger share but then I could envisage there would be a few less attractive games with empty seats.

Good to see there are still some people that subscribe to the "each to their own" policy with regards to seating.
Nothing worse than some banger coming up and saying "I'm seat 76 mate" - GTF pal
Although for these games I imagine it will be stricter given the price difference between seats and the opportunity to link orders. What I won't stand for is people insisting that we sit down for the 90mins
I think the suggestion (or if it wasn't this would be a possibility) is that you could use the seat together option and then if Cat 3 and FF were in the same area you could just swap seats in the ground. No harm linking your order to a random and then when you get the seating plan on the day sorting out something.

Managed to get one of the Hungary tickets just now on 10 points for a mate
So you bought one of the few tickets available for a mate, thus depriving someone who was eligile.
Well played.

The fact he must have emailed and got a response by 13:22 is impressive! I was still coming down from the adrenaline high of securing tickets at that point!

Sounds promising then, yeah I'm sure they will be busy. I'll keep an eye on e-mails for a response, hopefully will hear tomorrow.
Thanks for the info 🙂
Found it!!

I haven't seen anything like that on FB. I've e-mailed Uefa Ticketing Customer Services, no response yet. We maybe had to do individual match transactions to guarantee this but I don't think that was made clear anywhere. I don't expect to be seated together in the Switzerland match as obviously different categories. What will be will be.....We're going to Germanyyyyyy!! 😁
99% sure they did as there was a screenshot of email response from UEFA. I'd imagine they have been inundated now, but to be fair to UEFA, they have been pretty good so far and hopefully sort it for you!

I think there will be quite a few in the same boat and as for matches 1 and 3, I will be doing my best to be seated together seeing as they are in the same price category after all. It's usually a bit of a free for all at away matches as I'm sure you will have experienced and I don't mind swapping seats if it's with a same category ticket. Match 2, naturally, will be different, as we are in different categories.
😁
Pretty sure I read someone post on FB that they, in this scenario, emailed UEFA using one of the links the SFA supplied and it was sorted really quickly.

Problem is once you've bought you can't get back in to see what's available, i always enjoyed watching Hampden sell when tickets go on sale but cant be that nosey b***ard now!
I know, that's why I was asking what options Tooting Dave had as he just ordered.

Logged on at work just after 12 right through to payment and then lost internet connection. Only just secured my tickets now.f*?*ing stressful
Would be interested to know what Cat tickets were left. I would have thought that most 12+ pointers will have ordered by now, so will give a guide to what will be left for tomorrows. I appreciate that a lot of people will not have been able to order at 12, but it would be a good guide.

Just realised that there was no booking fee's either!

but further down in the same email:
You will be sent one email containing one Access Code for each match
-
4 minutes ago, GaryWood34 said:
I think we all know the reason why the codes are sent at 11 is perhaps because some are generic and could be shared.
By sending them at 11 by the time word gets out they’ll be bought up and too late anyway.
I thought it was more likely to prevent people selling the code prior to 12:00. Unlikely I know, but there may be people who can't go and would sell their code.

The bit that says access codes will be different for those on 32-12 points - one code for all 3 matches - is confusing me.
Not sure where you have read that. The official FAQ says:
You will be sent one email containing one Access Code for each match. Please note that Access Codes are for the members’ own personal use and cannot be shared or used by someone else.

Doesn't leave much time to resolve issues folk have not receiving emails 😕
I agree, however if you didn't just receive the email with subject heading:
"SSC: Important EURO 2024 ticket sale information ahead of tomorrow"
Then I would get on that today!

Another positive was that the new ticket system seemed to be an improvement....
