Why Can’t I Buy Tickets For England v Brazil?
I’ve bought tickets for England home games in the past, but I can’t even get logged in as a registered England fan to even see if I can purchase tickets. I just get a message saying.
According to our records, you are not eligible to purchase tickets for this event.
I suspected that this could be because I have moved house, since I last bought a ticket.
So I registered as a new England fan at my new address and tried again. And what happened?
I got the same message again.
I wonder why I’m not allowed to buy tickets. I have e-mailed them and guess what? I’ve not received any reply at all.
So it could be that FA doesn’t stand for Football Association, but something else.
Or could it be that I’m too old? Or perhaps someone with the same name as me, is on a banned list?
All I want is a ticket for myself and a couple for friends.
By the time that I get logged in, they might all have gone!
I think, I’ll reach for my solicitor if that happens. I think my human rights have been abused.

I have tried several times and still get the same error message. I have a feeling that touts and other criminal elements have hi-jacked the process and will be making a killing on this. I’ll be contacting 6-0-6 tonight.

To my understanding you have few levels of sale on these tickets… First is if you’re a full england fan member – requires £75 membership, second is priority sale, that is if you bought tickets for England – San Marino previously and if you’re in the last group – PUBLIC SALE you have to wait until 7th December 12pm to be able to buy them… I think you will still need your FAN number but no membership is required, simply register for free.

Thanks for that. I thought I was an England fan as I had a number. Nowhere obvious does it say anything about the £75. I’ve since found out, I can’t go anyway, so it doesn’t matter. I’ll have to watch the match minus goals on ITV.
