Anyone got a number for these clowns. I need some damage limitation before she gets home

Yeah they've taken £300 off me as well and I dont even get the tickets. Miscreants.

I called them and they said the money will appear back on the card within 2 days...

Yep just called here too (you actually have to call Ticketmaster Customer Service!) and she was quite helpful but said nothing in the system (so no tickets sorry dudes!) so the money should reappear on the card in next day or so.. and if not to call again.. pffftttt. Not impressed.

To see this is actually devastating. I know that kind of shit always goes on, but this is even more of an insult, after trying three times to get them...

I've counted around 15 pairs on ebay, and as I type there are 13 pairs on viagogo.com and 26 tickets on seatwave.com.

That's 82 (about 5% of capacity) minimum being touted, not to mention those that will be touted outside the venue.

It's a pretty shit situation, and it looks as if this is where the market is headed.

See Trent Reznor's excellent write-up here: http://forum.nin.com/bb/read.php?59,548515
or BBC article suggesting prices should be raised(!) to stop touting: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6477325.stm
And I just found this article that states a figure of 5% as well. Hmmm...: http://www.app.com/article/20090629/OPINION01/906300317/1029/OPINION/Tsk++tsk+on+tickets

Tried to buy tickets off the ticketweb site- was gone to the secure order form page with my order for two tickets twice!!! It says at the top of the page that your tickets are secure for 15mins and yet once I pressed place order I was told that there was no tickets! This was at 9am and they had me buying the tickets- I couldnt be more p1ssed off!!!! From reading here though Im not the only one who had problems with the site!
The prices on ebay is whats pissing me off the most tho- what gives them the right?!?!?!?!?!? damn touts!!!!

Brill thanks PDH I am going to use all of this in my campaign / search for help. I will continue to keep you all updated but at some point I hope to start up a petition - I'll do this once I have been given the contact name I have been waiting for!

Raising prices for tickets, that pretty crap in itself. I recall Madonna charged £175 per ticket at O2 in June or July. That would be unfair too in my view. It penalises the fans

I didnt even think to check the bank account. Had aleady rang to give out that when something is in your shopping cart it should be IN YOUR SHOPPING CART! Also explained the way that it says your tickets are held for 15mins while you process your payment and they hadnt a clue about that on the phone- told them they should really sort it out!!- "sorry but nothng we can do" really isnt what ya want to hear! Gonna have to ring back again now to sort out the bank- god help whoever I get thru to this time!

Please let me know if there's anything at all I can do to help out. These shady business practices have been annoying me for a while but after witnessing this week's fiasco first hand, I feel that more needs to be done.
