Ticketmaster

I was wondering if anyone could offer any advice.

I purchased 2 tickets yesterday to see Eddie Vedder at the Hammersmith Apollo on the 31st July

I purchased online via the Ticketmaster site. I received e-mail confirmation and £101.25 was charged to my credit card.

This afternoon I received an automated voicemail and a follow up e-mail informing there was an error on their web and I was not charged £5.00 per ticket booking fee. They went on to say i don't call their call centre and cough up, they will refund by inital payment and I'll lose the tickets.

I done some digging and it appears this effected everyone who booked tickets for this events.

Now I know its only a tenner, but I have to ask- do I have to pay this even though it was a done deal and I received e-mail confirmation of my purchase yesterday.

And the so and so's have an 0845 number to call to resolve.

Regards

Dan

  • Do you have the tickets?

    If not then likely that they have T&Cs along the lines of DSRs and contract is formed on dispatch of tickets which means they can cancel up until they are posted and give you a refund.
    Thinking critically since 1996....
