How did everyone get on and which block did you end up buying for?

[Aldershot]

I was placed in a queue but made it through relatively quickly (within 3 minutes) akthough I panicked for a second because once I had reached the front of the queue I was met with the following message:

Our services aren't available right now.
We're working to restore all services as soon as possible. Please check back soon.

Thankfully just refreshing the page took me to the ordering section rather than putting me to the back of the queue. It's important to note that when booking a block you aren't able to select a specific seat but rather have to accept or decline the seat the FA website offers you in your chosen block. Perhaps there is a way around this but I couldn't see how to change it so I just had to accept the seat selected for me as I didn't want to miss out on my selected block.

Despite selecting the print at home method (physical tickets not an option) they still charge you £1.50 for the privilege.

For anyone who wants to purchase hospitality the following options are available:

Diamond Package – £229 per person inc VAT

Reserved premium ticket in Level One seating blocks, on the halfway line and behind the players dugout
Access to the One Twenty Lounge from turnstile opening
Tea, coffee and pastries served on arrival

Two course buffet served between the two matches
Inclusive beer, wine and soft drinks served with buffet between the two matches (approx. two hours)
Purchase bar available for one hour post final whistle
Souvenir programme for each guest

Private Boxes – £290 per person inc VAT (Boxes are available in the Aldershot quadrant)

Premium ticket directly outside your box on Level 3 or 4 of the stadium
Boxes available for 8, 12 or 20 people

Complimentary bar including beer, wine, soft drinks, tea and coffee
Your own chef and host/hostess in attendance throughout
42” flat-screen TV

4,952 tickets in the Aldershot end available to buy. So by my reckoning that's over 2000 already sold or in people's baskets

That's a good start in 25 minutes!

Went in at 12:05 and 3600th in queue - I hope I get tickets!

I’ve just googled how to buy tickets and it mentions nothing about having to create an account. Their ticket page makes no mention of that either!

So, do we need to make an account or not? If so, how do we do it?

Yes you do. Do it on their website....click on My Account and then create. It doesn't take long.

You need to create an account.

To purchase tickets via Wembley’s website, everyone will need to register/create an account in advance. It can take up to 15 minutes for an account to become active so it is recommended to register and account before the sales starts. Please ensure your home address is added into your account as this could mean you cannot complete bookings.

It states it here, just under the Wembley seating plan.

I know what our website says, but Wembley’s website makes no mention of an account, which I found strange.
