Gigantic - ticketplan con

Bought 2x tickets for Lets Rock Bristol. £1.49 for ticket protection.... OK not much so why not (tickets are almost £50 each).

Also, at the same time bought shuttle bus tickets for £5 each.

Yes its my fault for not checking - but I've been charged 4x $1.49 for insurance - yes Ive paid £1.49 insurance for a £5 bus ticket!

Of course, I guess the way around this would have been buy the main tickets, add insurance, pay. Go back in buy bus tickets decline insurance.

How many people miss this though or can't be bothered? Its £3 extra so its not worht a big fight but how many £3s have they made here?

They know full well that no-one is going to want to pay £1.49 to protect a £5 bus ticket...

Probably completely legal but really dodgy practicie IMHO.
