Ticket master cancel tickets 3/7/11

I know this isnt the right board but not sure where to put this.
Coming back from the school run this morning it was on the radio that Take That are adding an extra date in manchester.
When I got home I had an automated voicemai from ticketmaster (i havnt booked my tickets with them)to advise that the concert 3/7/11 has now been changed and all tickets are invalid and will be refunded!!
I havnt booked that date either so not sure whats going on but just thought id give people with tickets on that date the heads up and to see if anyone else has had the same

Let the fun begin with people that sold tickets for this date on ebay fir stupid prices as by the looks of things there tickets have just been cancelled

    That's not quite correct before everyone starts panicking! If you had booked for 3rd July as we had they're now automatically transferred to the 30th June date unless you want a refund. You have 30 days to request a refund. Received an email from them this morning. Luckily we're ok with the new date but can understand that some people might not be.
  • Just checked my email,see below
    diffrent info from the phone call
    everyone can breath again...........and get booking hotel and travel before the scrum!






    Take That - Wembley Stadium, London
    i_safe.gifDear Ticketmaster customer,
    This is an important email from Ticketmaster regarding your booking for Take That at Wembley Stadium, London, on 3 July 2011.
    The Promoter and band have asked us to pass on the following statement:

    "Dear Take That ticket holder
    You successfully purchased tickets to see Take That at Wembley Stadium on Sunday 3 July. However this date is now not happening and has been re scheduled to a new date. This concert has been re arranged to take place on Thursday 30 June 2011 at Wembley Stadium and we have transferred your ticket to be valid for this new date. Your ticket will be sent to you as normal a couple of weeks before the show.
    Please note that in order to accommodate an extra date at Wembley, it has been necessary to reschedule the planned show on Sunday 3rd July to Thursday 30th June. The promoters apologise for the inconvenience this may cause but tickets remain valid for customers who have already bought them for Sunday 3rd July and you do not have to do anything as your tickets will be automatically transferred to the new date. If the new date of Thursday 30 June is inconvenient, you are entitled to a full refund from your point of purchase. The offer of a refund is valid for 30 days. You will now be seeing the first Take That show at Wembley Stadium on the Progress Live Tour.
    The band commented “We are really sorry to have to move the dates in London but we’d heard that there was a lot of disappointment from those not being able get tickets and this was the only way that we could fit in another show. We hope everyone understands and look forward to seeing you all next year.”"
