Just want a moan
We got guest tickets given to us by my mams next dor neighbour which the odeon gave to him as he lent them tables and chairs for a thing they were having
He only got them last week and they ran out on the 31st may
I checked all the terms and conditions on the back and couldnt find any saying you cant use them at a certain time, they did say you can book tickets with them
So I arranged to go with my mam and cousin to see indiana jones
got to the front desk and was told that we are only allowed to use them on iron man and what happens in vegas as you cant use them on new releases and you cant use them on new releases
My mam asked if she could speak to the manager to see why we couldnt use them as it didnt say that on the back of the tickets
Was told they werent around but the guy on the till next to the girl serving us said that if we came in next week with the out of date tickets we might be allowed to see indiana jones with them
She was going to pay for tickets for indiana jones but I said to see what happens in vegas and we will go and see Indiana Jones at the empire next week
What happens in Vegas turned out to be a lot funnier than I was expecting

Well I got a reply from the Odeon who sent my complaint to the odeon silverlink
They stated it says on the back of the tickets that if the distrubtors ask for the film to be free list suspended then they dont accept free tickets/guest passes in the first three weeks
So the guy working there who said that the manager might accept them next week when the tickets were out of date was making it up at the film is not three weeks old then
It also said ask to speak to the duty manager at the time which we did do but they refused to get himNeeding to lose weight start date 26 December 2011 current loss 60 pound Down. Lots more to go to get into my size 6 jeans0 -
So can they not be used for new releases?
Not if the film distributors say no then they cant be used for the first three weeks which is about the length that films stay at cinemas forNeeding to lose weight start date 26 December 2011 current loss 60 pound Down. Lots more to go to get into my size 6 jeans0 -
