Advice from UK police about ticket sales

If you’re buying a ticket for the Games:

o When the London 2012 ticket application process opens you have until April 26 to apply for tickets as they are not allocated on a first come first served basis.

o The only way to apply for a ticket in the UK is at http://www.tickets.london2012.com. This is London 2012’s official site. You can also get a postal application from any Lloyds TSB branch. Don’t buy a ticket from an unauthorised website or tout.

o If you get a ticket for an event you can’t attend, you can return your ticket to get a refund.

o There are only three official providers for Games Breaks and Hospitality (Thomas Cook, Prestige Travel and Jet Set Travel)
