Just to reassure those that are (still) panicking.
Just logged on again this morning to have a look, and most of the upper tier blocks have the rear 15 rows with hardly any seats sold, and each block is about 30 seats across, so to make it simple, let's guesstimate at 450 seats x 20 blocks, that's 9k tickets still available, with half of the middle tier yet to open to sale, and potentially even more blocks to come.
I have mistakenly bought an over 65 ticket (fat fingers and getting in a flap assigning tickets etc.). Official site says no changes to bought tickets. How strict are they at the turnstiles about this from experience? I am mid-fifties so (hopefully) don’t look over 65! Do I just hope for the best and wing it?
Turnstiles are electronic so you should be able to wing it.

Does anyone know why there appear to be many tickets available on football.nets website at extortionate prices? I thought this wasn’t allowed with Wembley ticket policy? Is this touting in all but name?Where are these tickets coming from? Surely not season ticket holders buying them up and selling them on?
Could be people scamming - wouldn’t imagine it’s genuine fans - alternatively could be an outlet of official resellers - hopefully they’ll get left carrying them at the cost

I think they will most likely be hospitality tickets that people are entitled to through things like Club Wembley, but aren’t going to use so selling them on. Won’t be from either teams allocation as both will reach general sale.
The allocations are 70k of the ground so there’s quite a lot of EFL and hospitality tickets that are probably the ones being sold on those sites
I've just tried to log onto the website this morning assuming I wouldn't be eligible till Phase 5 and to my horror, it turns it I don't even have any account. I guess they migrated websites over the years and the last few times I have been have been tickets on arrival, or through friends bookings.
Gutted, 2019 was the best day I have ever had in football.
Hoping Orient give some of their allocation over to us and some tickets make it through to general sale.
Just logged in to have a look at how many is left and we still have in excess of 10,000 in the upper tier to shift. Imagine sales will be slow until tomorrow and Wednesday.

Phone/email the club to get your old account transferred.
Really starting to brick it now that I won't get any at 2Pm tomorrow.
Reassure me someone...please!!!!!
You’ll be fine, tons of tickets left and the main rush is over now. I’m not actually certain we’ll sell out our allocation once it reaches general sale.
I disagree of the main rush being over but I can’t see many being eligible at 150 pts that won’t already have tickets sorted.
I expect we will sell out the remaining initial allocation tomorrow. I know of 12 people myself who will be in tomorrow’s scramble.
I suspect Wednesday when they go on general sale is when we’ll start to potentially see extra tickets begin to be made available to us.
I'd have thought today's will be fairly busy. 150 points is 15 games over two seasons, which isn't too many for some.
As you say, tomorrow will probably be the main scramble, with everyone on the database.
Looked about 10 mins ago there is at least 5k-6 left in upper tiers. Hopefully you’re all be ok. Then the spare threads and maybe other blocks being released. I’ll possibly have a couple, as two people I go with are Doctors who will probably be on call in London hospitals as it’s bank holiday. Good luck everyone.

I’m not sure, I suspect a lot of those would have been supported out of the 4 ticket allocations to ST holders and Valley Gold
Let’s hope also they get the tickets out to people in time they left it a bit late for the semi-final.
not sure if you mean physical tickets but this one is e tickets/print at home only.
Yes mate that’s what I mean loads for the semi got the purchase email but no tickets including me. Had to chase them for the tickets attached. Hopefully all will be ok 👍

I think they take the money from the punter, then worry about sourcing tickets later.

Do you have to print, or can you scan e-ticket QR code from mobile to gain entry, assuming you're phones not been pick pocketed by then, or you've forgotten to charge it up first?

Sadly these sites still exist. Friend of mine chanced it last year with his wife to see Springsteen, got there, no tickets. It should be declared illegal but I'm sure there is a reason why it isn't. Simple answer is don't buy off these sites.

Wouldn't surprise me
Is there really a secondary market for this match? Surely there are going to be enough tickets on general sale that anyone wanting to go won’t need to run the risk and increase cost of buying indirectly?

The front rows of upper tier look ok, but not sure I'd want to be too close to the back
Is Chrome working?
Others I believe Had problems with it
