to think that allowing payment for Olympics tickets with Visa only is horrible commercialisation

[GeorgeEliot]

i don't have a Visa card - I spent ages registering, choosing which of the crappy events left we would go to so the dc wouldn't miss out - and then it is Visa only, so I had to abandon it.

What a stupid, stupid sytsem.

And don't get me started on the Coke sponsorship... why do we do everything so crap in Britain?

Do you remember the "Birds Eye Frozen Peas" Christmas lights up Oxford Street one year? This is JUST like that. and equally crap.

Yanbu. The entire Olympic ticketing system UTTERLY SUCKS.

is this worldwide also? Places such as cuba wouldn't have visa!

YANBU

They do similar for other events eg football tournaments

yes tis crap

YANBU at ALL
