    Who got Olympic tickets?
    So the majority of people were supposed to have had the money taken from their accounts for olympic tickets by 31st May. But everyone i've spoken to who applied for tickets seems to have been unsuccessful. Were we just all really unlucky or has there been a problem with the ticketing? Has anyone actually had any money come out for olympic tickets yet?

    I haven't had any money taken out, so presumably I've not had any

    I applied for quite a lot, so I can't see me not getting any. No money has gone out either.

    Didn't get any. Applied for tennis and showjumping. I seemingly have bad luck on the tennis front because I never get Wimbledon tickets either!

    Apparently more than half of those who applied for a ticket haven't got one. Talk about demand exceeding supply. I did envision a rush for the tickets but nothing like this.
