Extra Charges

I can't believe the level of extra charges that get added to the ticket price. I'm off with a friend to see a concert in Birmingham in November
Tickets - £45.00 x2 = £90.00
Facilities Charge £2.75 x2 = £5.50
Service Charge £6.25 x2 = £12.50
Processing Fee £2.85
Giving £20.85 extra on top of the costs, which is nearly a 25% uplift.

Its been like this for a while. I dont know why they dont just advertise an "all in" price, if the tickets were advertised as £55 each with nothing added on would you have started this thread, despite the extra tenner paying for the same things?1

In which case maybe they should start doing that then, psychologically it looks like you are paying for nothing extra when in fact you are.0
