My email said towards the end of the month. I'm not expecting anything for a couple of weeks.

Got to be news soon, surely?

Does anyone know how the ballots are being carried out? Is it a random draw or some other method?

It sounds like they are trying to be clever so as many people get at least something as possible. That's what I got from the blurb anyway

Not feeling confident on getting tickets for Eng vs Aus. 650,000 applicants for around 20,000 seats...

Impressive to get them before the emails have been sent. Where did you get them?

Got mine.

Applied for £2.5k worth of tickets for all the Wales games at various price points plus matches at Milton Keynes and Birmingham.

After all that I got just one match.

This has been an absolute shambles. The France RWC allowed you to by a complete team package inc quarters and semis with a refund if your team didn't make it.

Now, I'll get to see Wales v Uruguay and nothing more.....

I applied for over £1k worth of tickets and got absolutely zilch. One of the games I applied for was Samoa v USA in Brighton which I thought was a pretty sure bet even if I didn't get anything more prestigious, but looks like I was wrong. Not a happy bunny! furious

I applied for *LOADS*.

Didn't get any.

The prices are ridiculous and I'll get some through work and friends but it's a tout's dream.

Was on the line for way too many and now I am glad I applied for as many as I did.....

Have pairs for:

Aus v Wales in HQ
The two QFs that Eng can qualify for and
Scot v Japan at Kingsholm

A little disappointed really but also slightly relieved - thank God for corporate jollies smile
