This is going to massively inflate the draw numbers - I can actually see a lot not being taken up in this round (assuming they do the draw once only) with people firing in all sorts of random applications now and deciding later not to take them up when they have to pay. Might not be the case for Dublin but definitely other cities
I think alot of applicants are unaware that if you get your chosen games and you want to go ahead and purchase that you have to financially commit to all the games you applied for and not a selection of the games you applied for

Everyone should only apply for what you are willing to afford under the risk that we won't qualify. I'm just applying for Cat 3 for all the 4 Dublin games and for Fans First for the final despite the odds being low I will get any, no way I am committing to paying €125 or €180 for tickets to games at the Aviva that could end up being Hungary vs Bosnia

I'm thinking of applying for one Category 3 ticket for all of the Dublin games as if we didn't qualify might go to a few games. If successful in this application and if we qualify, would I still get a ticket via FAI and portal such as follow my team later on? Or would the fact that I got one originally from Uefa come against me? Would just rather be in a section with regular away trippers.

If you get offered tickets can you turn them down?

You won't get one as far as I can tell. You'll already have a ticket against you so won't get another one

Exactly... if you have tickets for matches on the same day as Ireland ones, you won't get any other tickets.

I had an application in for tickets trough uefa but have decided to delete it after reading all this. I have a fairly Ok away record so I’ll take my chances with the FAI!!

For 2012 & 2016 the FAI accounts were separate from your UEFA one.  I had the Warsaw semi final through UEFA and FMT to the final from the FAI which could have included the Warsaw SF. In 2016 I had the Lyon Rof16 game which ended up being the France match.  I also had a ticket via FMT.

I actually checked with the FAI and was told it was OK.  

It is certainly true that if you are allocated a Dublin ticket from UEFA you will not be able to buy a Bilbao ticket that day.  Even if you subsequently sell your Dublin ticket back via the portal I think you are often blocked (not certain here).

So if I want to apply for tickets for the three Dublin games in the open ballot, I could open an account in my wifes or one of my parents names and use their Credit Card. Then if I'm successful in that and we qualify, just apply for the Bilbao game on it's own under my own FAI account and hope I can shift the ticket for the Dublin game I won't be using.

If we don't qualify, I'd still go to the matches in Dublin except for an England RO16 game.

That could work... the only thing is that you have to supply details for every ticket applicant and give addresses & passport numbers.

When I've done it in the past, I've always used different addresses where possible and mixed up the passport number with a single typo, so no automated checks show it as the same person. e.g. if your passport number is PG3729502, put it in as PG37295O2, and no one will ever notice that the letter "O" is used instead of the number "0". If your passport has a 0 or 1 in it, change it to O or l (lower case "L") and you'll bypass all automated checks.

For this phase you only need to give the main applicant details and no credit card details are required.  

So if you want to be extra careful get a partner of somebody else living in the house to apply.  

I would expect to still be able to apply to the FAI if say we are in Bilbao on this day next year (June 15th) even if I'm lucky enough to have a ticket for Dublin the same day.  

The one obvious caveat is that if we don't qualify it could be very tough to offload tickets.

As expected demand is high for cat 3 tickets but appears to be OK for cat 2.

Didn't bother applying. 
Will take my chances with the associations allocation if we qualify. If not will probably pick up a ticket handy enough for any of the dublin games depending on who's playing

Of course, but with a decent record with the FAI it'll be fine so I'm not worried about that.

But even with a good record, why wouldn’t you apply for tickets? What’s the downside?
