    they should have had to give everyone a refund check. the free tickets is a joke. you ripped us off for a decade and just offer us tickets to shows i have no interest in? fuck that. give me cash

    That's why the only winners in Class Action lawsuits are the lawyers. By the time it goes through the courts, and the lawyers get paid, there's usually nothing but a pittance left for everyone else.
    This doesn't give me much hope for the lawsuit im involved in with Volkswagen for the diesel issue as the only winners will be the government and lawyers

    As far as TM and this issue they know exactly what they are doing hence why they agreed to the free ticket ordeal as its easier for them to manipulate rather than paying out hundreds of dollars in actual checks to those they committed fraud to

    Scalpers likely have a field day. Free tickets to sell. No doubt they have multiple TM accounts that received max vouchers

    I prefer random. If they give everyone a heads up, then everyone logs in and tries to get those tickets at the same time. You won't stand a chance. Much better odds checking throughough the day, having a bit of luck, and randomly stumbling into it. Good things don't happen on the internet when everyone tries to do the same thing at the same time.

    I should have bought 17 pairs of tickets to good shows and sold them for $10 per ticket on eBay. Cause there was nothing within 2 hours drive from me. Fucking ticketbastards...

    It isn't updated. It's just the combined list of all the shows that were originally available, both the decent ones and the shitty cover bands. And they all say "vouchers sold out for this show."

    Thanks. What BS. We should be able to redeem these codes for any show we want.

    The free ticket vouchers are good until May 2017, but as soon as they give away $10 million worth of tickets, they are done honoring them. The $2.25 ones seem to be good for quite a while though.

    They just added more shows, but nothing around here. Most are tribute bands.

    They just reopened, with more voucher tickets, the same shows that were originally posted. At this point everything I've tried is available but I'm sure it won't last long.

    It wouldn't let me buy the Springsteen shows. Must be too much money.

    I finally got it to take my voucher code, and then of course when I proceed to check out it gives me an error. I'm so over Ticketmaster. This whole thing just makes me dislike them even more then I already did!

    It wouldn't let me buy Black Sabbath tickets in NJ, was going to send them to a friend, since nothing around here is worth a damn seeing. Figured I'd use at least one code, but, nope. I'm done, not worth the hassle.

    I got Steely Dan but I keep trying for Blink and it keeps saying voucher cannot be redeemed. Trying every remaining code I have and none will work for that show. Is it really that fucking hard to get shit to work properly?

    It's only the shows listed? There is no shows listed within 6 hours of me? Can you try codes on any show?

    I've got some codes listed in Lost Dogs under RAK thread (hopefully anyone who doesn't already have their own account codes). Can't use all 17 pairs (especially since there is nothing good within 2 hour drive for me) so maybe someone can use them
