read if you bought via ticketweb, but said it was sold out when you put in your cc
 
like, oh you know, everyone, i reloaded the ticketweb page like a madman at 9:59 and did my best to score some tickets, and then of course the site was fucking up and said it was sold out AFTER it took all my credit info.

however, i just checked my online banking. they debited the funds.

are they just complete fuckheads, or did i get tickets?

honestly this whole parasite ecosystem of online tickets + ebay + craigs scalping is the worst. i'd rather wait in line at sam goody all nite, maan.

fuckin hell, thats madness. if they debited your card you technically deserve the tickets, comsumer rights and all that lark, that is bollox, make sure you get that sorted, smart fuckers (jesus sorry about the language but it just irk's me to see someone getting a bum deal)

i just checked and sadly i didn't get charged.

i tried getting tix, but didn't get as far as entering CC info before it said it was sold out. my friend however, got charged $300 bucks (debited from his account) and was told tix were sold out, got no confirmation of tix or anything.

i recommend filing a complaint to the FTC about Ticketweb (who are apparently owned by ticketmaster) hopefully this link will work, takes you right to the FTC online complaint site...

Wouldn't it be more reasonable to contact TicketWeb and try to straighten it out first? Yes, it sucks to be charged without receiving tickets, but this is an imperfect world. Give people a chance to rectify things before blowing whistles. On the other hand, if it turns out to be a chronic problem with TicketWeb, and they just can't handle this sort of technology, then they should get out of the business.

check your bank statement again. i was charged for tix but later credited when they were sold out...

Read this post if you are tired of every other thread being about Ticketmaster/Ticketweb.

Fuck.
