I Think I've been ripped off by Ticketmaster

For £280, I'd want a back stage pass and a night out with the girl as well!!

It's only an extra £100 for a seat at the back and a night on your own. Don't be so stingy.

So you would have been happy had the face value not been printed on the ticket?

You were offered 2 x tickets at £500+, you were happy with the price and that is what you paid.

Had they been printed with a face value of £350 each, would you have called them to offer them the extra money?

You got what you wanted at a price you were happy to pay, just go and enjoy the concert.

I don't like her that much and it's certainly not because of her music

Sounds like Ticketmaster being Ticketmaster.

I don't think anyone has ever called them a wonderful, lovely, reputable company.

They're what people refer to as !!!! houses.

But its a valid point, if we think we have been over charged we demand money back, if we find out we have under paid we dont tend to offer the money back to the company who is losing out.

In what regards? I've been in a restaurant before where they forgot to add all the drinks for the evening, and yes, I told the waitress.

Would I tell a morally bankrupt borderline corrupt corporation, who control a huge monopoly over ticket distribution that they accidentally undercharged me?

Nah, the massive service charge for pretty much absolutely nothing, that they add on every time I buy a ticket probably covers their losses.

Cheers. As someone who enjoys learning things, I'll remember that for next time. My bad grammar doesn't negate your completely pointless comment though.

Plus, do they not have an obligation to tell buyers the real price of their tickets? i.e. the RRP? I was not once informed of this when purchasing.

Yes, they do.
