Viagogo - Bunch of absolute chancers
I'm not normally one to start threads slamming things like companies and what not. Just been asked by a friend to look at sourcing some tickets for a gig. Ended up on Viagogo, the price was confirmed at £174 per ticket. Massively above face value, but hey, if someone wants it enough, they'll pay. Get to the payment screen…

Getting them when first on sale
Does anyone know of a web site or fan site that has general advice on finding out about concerts in advance and buying them direct when they first come on sale?

Hi I have an event I was due to attend this weekend, but unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it.

Help! Who do I buy off?
Hiya, I’m looking to buy a couple of tickets for an anniversary present in a couple of months. But where do I buy them from? I’ve seen them for sale on Ticketmaster, and other booking agencies.

Event cancelled by provider
I booked karting for my grandchildren on a weekend away. The venue cancelled my booking 5 hours before stating bad weather. I drove over 200 miles that day so it wasn't that bad. They refused to refund and said I can rebook but we were only there for the weekend and it would be over 400 mile round trip to go do it another…

Ticket Bis - Second hand football tickets
I bought 2 football tickets on Ticket Bis for £382.22. When they arrived it was printed on the ticket that they cost £40 each. Surely this isn’t legal? I’ve contacted Ticket Bis and they said they are just providing a safe platform between buyers and sellers and don’t get involved in pricing. I would’ve thought they…
