Chickendoodle Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Requested tickets for the Athletics this morning and was shocked and delighted to get 2. Went through all the payment bits, panicking as you only get a short while to fill it all in and the clock ticks down in front of you. Visa card was declined and I lost the tickets. OH phoned up Visa to have a go at them and they checked and said I put the wrong security code in. I am so upset and annoyed with myself. Needless to say there are no more tickets now. I am normally so computer literate and careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Oh how annoying for you I know what you mean about the pressure of a clock counting down though. I got to pieces when I have one at checkout As a family of 5 we have given up on most tickets as you can only get 4 We do have football tickets to see England vs Uruguay though as you are allowed to buy up to 30 of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickendoodle Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 I wouldn't have minded so much not being allocated any tickets - it was the fact that I had them and lost them through my own fault Hey ho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickendoodle Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 All true and I feel better now ! I would probably have been at the top of the stadium watching the action on a screen anyway as I imagine you have to pay the ridiculous top prices to be anywhere near the action.
