  2. For weeks I was wondering why I haven't been given a refund option for Blossoms (gig has been rescheduled with a new date) and Noel Gallagher (gigs have been postponed with no new date set) this is why..

    Ticketmaster are trending on twitter because they're not offering refunds for any postponed shows. Shows now need to be outright cancelled for you to receive a refund. Tough if you can't make the new date!

    Wow, that's disgraceful. Ticketbastard strikes again
  4. It doesn’t seem legal to be able to change there terms after people have already booked.

    Seems like people can still get a refund after all. Thought as much. A lot of these companies will be changing the wording on the policy now so that people just think they’re cornered into accepting the new terms when in actual fact a contract exists which include the original terms meaning ticketmaster can’t refuse a refund. They could however refuse a refund for people booking from now on though since you would be booking under new terms.

    That’s Live Nation!
  8. Live Nation own Ticketmaster, not a surprise that they changed the wording in the US. And will try to keep as much of people's cash as possible. But at least in the UK it's decent, I guess.

    They also own StubHub which has exactly the same policy! AFAIK.

    Nice Monopoly they have. Also interesting to see that the company who owns a third of Live Nation also own 2/3rds of SiriusXM.

    I get you now. I would just stress to people don’t accept the changing of the wording to mean you can’t get a refund. They might dig there heels in but by law they are due people a refund. Unless the laws in the states are massively different but I think most terms would have included that if they have to change or cancel your purchase then they owe a refund, any changes to these terms are irrelevant.
