traaidmark Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 that is most likely because their servers are overloaded. it's BECAUSE it's sale day that the site is down! Just shows how much interest there is today!!! Glad I got my tickets before!
Mackie Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Just heard via 5FM, their (FIFA) ticketing system crashed again, when will these people learn?
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 You probably right about the servers being overloaded. They had a similar problem when they first released tickets for over the counter and internet sales. One would have thought Fifa would be better prepared second time around. I have tickets too but was hoping for a Cape Town semi. I wasn't prepared to camp out side the ticket office like some people I know, especially in last nights weather.
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 Just heard via 5FM' date=' their (FIFA) ticketing system crashed again, when will these people learn?[/quote'] now imagine camping out the night in pissing cold weather and the system crashes when the doors finally open.My poor friend camped out the first time. He was number 56 but only the first 50 got tickets.Now he is number 16 and was camping out since yesterday 3pm. I hope he gets tickets for his efforts. Noshame2010-05-28 04:27:25
KeithW Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I managed to get on this AM but there were no tickets available for any of the games in Durban
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 I was on at 6am ..tickets were not released yet.
krl747 Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Got to the payment stage and then it crashed!!! Now i am hitting refresh every 2 seconds!! No one works on a Friday right?
KeithW Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I got on now - still not released !!! This is FIFA for you - a joke !
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 I still get the maintenance screen. just spoke to my buddy at the ticket office. He said the system is up but very slow.
krl747 Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 No luck on this side. still doing the refresh, added another PC to the fun!
AndreZA Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 how about that nice power failure at Soccer City last night during the game.
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 how about that nice power failure at Soccer City last night during the game. We never getting tickets.
Hosie Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Apparently the tickets online will only be available from 6pm, after the ticket offices have closed.
Noshame Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 Is it just me or has the "buy ticket" option been removed from the site?
