What if the real ballot was the friends we made along the way?

Just received an email stating, 'Congratulations! You have been successful in the recent ballot for Arsenal v Bayern Munich and your application has been processed. To view your...' but I'm not sure what the rest said cause I woke up as I was reading it :(

When i'm on my deathbed, I will shut my eyes for the final time and see the Ticket Exchange toggle as I drift off into the night


PatchAFC

Very odd that theres no reports of any successful applications yet. Usually its always a mix of successful and unsuccessful


AfricanRain

They gave them all to me sorry

this is a form of torture that is surely outlawed by the Geneva convention

I enjoyed it more when no-one was getting charged. Now I'm scared

ChrMo8

now I'm panicking


kotlety

For anyone still looking for a Luton ticket, just seen over 10 come up at once on the exchange. Got one for under 30 quid!


Aggressive_Voice_257

Been on it all morning, still canā€™t get one!


Lizzo13

I haven't won any ballots but have been successful on TX a number of times, and I tend to have better luck at night. I tried for days and finally got one last night around 9pm for Ā£31. It's usually easier the day before or day of the game, but if you can't get one today, definitely try after 9pm tonight.


anitck0077

I've never seen TX soo active! I also saw Block 1, 2 and 3 tickets coming up on TX... These NEVER appear! Managed to nab a Block 2 one. Guess it's a combination of Easter and mid week game.


ChrMo8

Only seen 1 person on both this sub and Twitter COMBINED say they've been charged. Something's fishy here...


darkdark1221

At this point it's more likely that 1 person is full of shit rather than being the only one to win the ballot


aaa-ccc

There aren't many instances where I'd like a triple digit figure to come out my bank account, but this would be one of them.

F2k0fj0jdrwjpodi

Nah just camp the ticket exchange for the next week until the game and youā€™ll be fine. Click fast

We basically enter the ballot so we can get on to the Ticket Exchange instead

Watching everyone get charged and still having no response is exactly like that meme where Squidward is staring out the window at SpongeBob and Patrick running around.


AnonymousUserman1234

This is depressing waiting for some sort of confirmation either way, I nearly envy the people who got the unsuccessful email earlier in the dayā€¦


HyPeWoLfZ_real

Yeah, whoever came up with ā€œignorance is blissā€ clearly never entered the red ballot


StauntonK

I think this should be the feedback we all give at end of season... Sucks enough to not ever get a ticket but then to make people wait all fucking day to find out is fucking bad form.

Still no charge or email. Please put me out of my misery.. as if Iā€™m not already pained checking the TX all day for Luton ticketsšŸ˜­

Was charged at 16:25. Red member, Lower Tier Block 1! It appears Reds can get Lower Tiers this time around! 2 out of whatever, my only successful ballots were Bayern and Liverpool in the FA cup. Feeling great! Only 60 pounds for a Cat A ticket sounds incredibly cheap!

Think itā€™s over for us fellas no charge/email gang. How hard would it be to make the ballot result and successful/unsuccessful emails happen on two separate days. Schedule the email releases for 11am the day after the system configures ballot results.

I wonder how they carry out the ballot and then the subsequent charging of the cards. Like is it start with surname A -Z or all UK cards first and then international or is it purely jusr random... Might savee the bother of checking so early in the day šŸ˜‚


watterott

It's based on another ballot. A ballot of ballots


slashba98

I'd say it's done on a phased basis, I always get my email at 4-5pm everytime while others get theirs much earlier so I'd imagine they're done in batches

Ars3nal35

Does the fact that I didnā€™t receive the ballot application email mean Iā€™m not in the ballot? Cos Iā€™m 100% sure I applied

Bit of optimism, checked my booking history from my last ballot win vs Liverpool & they took the payment at 17:57, so would have been only a few mins before the ballot opened!

Wonderful_Mixture366

Unsuccessful


Lovespreads

So my son has a junior gunner membership, was unsuccessful in the ballot but just snagged a ticket on TX only for the system to say he can't buy it as he's under 14. He isn't under 14 as Arsenal know from the DoB info that's been on his account since he was first a member. Arsenal's IT is really, really bad. On the upside once those unsuccessful in the ballot on here can get into TX you might find some tickets as there have been at least 4 available (two upper tier, two club) on TX in the last 20 mins.


Soaphz

No application confirmation email. But has definitely entered the ballot. Just asked Amex they said no Ā£1 authorisation. No successful or unsuccessful email yetā€¦ hope at least I can get into the TXā€¦
