    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

    They will only work on your account, they're non-transferable.

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

    Only the ones on the list: http://concerts.livenation.com/microsite/settlement

    I couldn't get the Blink 182 tickets bc it had sold out by the time I attempted. The list just hadn't updated yet so the link to get tickets was still there. Bummer. I did end up getting Steely Dan, Snoop Dogg, & Sun Kil Moon.

    I finally got some of my voucher codes to work late last night. Managed to get tickets to Bush, Counting Crows, and Black Sabbath.

    Are we able to buy tickets with these vouchers and then sell those tickets? No shows near me, but I'll happily get some for free and re-sell them to people for a discount (StubHub, ebay, craigslist, etc.). Is this possible???

    What a fucking joke. Even shows that APPEAR to be available for voucher holders, it still pops up a message when you try to submit your voucher. Ticketmaster is beyond bad.

    They may be good for that long, but Ticketmaster already fulfilled their $5 million promise for free tickets. They added another $5 million, but when those are gone, they have no reason to add any more. You can take a chance that they will, but you are also taking a chance that you will have 17 vouchers for pairs of tickets that will be worthless in another week.

    The lawsuit was for $5 million in ticket vouchers, which went in the first wave. Then ticketbastard increased its allotment of tickets to $10 million total, another $5 million. So, once they've reached $10 million worth of tickets given out, it's over. No matter the date. Credits will most likely be good for a while, but ticket vouchers will be gone soon.


    From their site.

    "Ticketmaster agreed to provide $5 million in ticket vouchers for select Live Nation concerts through May 2017, subject to availability and a cap of 17 claims per account. Given the tremendous initial interest for these tickets, Ticketmaster will increase to $10 million its allotment of tickets made available through May 2017."

    Thank you for this message board! I really thought the vouchers for concert tickets were going to be good til 2020. Damn loopholes when it comes to lawsuits and whatnot...

    Well, fortunately living in the Bay Area, there's 3 venues around me (The Fillmore, Shoreline, and Concord Pavilion). Used my 3 vouchers (6 tix) on Dead&Company and Florida Georgia Line...everything else is pretty much gone...

    If you look at StubHub, people are putting tickets up for $10-$15 for a lot of shows. Guess they figure some money is better then nothing.

    I am just getting tickets to shows that some of you may like, then I'll just give them away in this forum. I don't want all those ticket resellers grabbing all the free tickets before some of us get a chance at any of them. I had all of mine mailed to me, so I will have actual tickets.

    Won't new shows continue to show up as time goes on? If the vouchers are valid for 4 more years, doesn't that mean TM will offer eligible shows for that period of time? Otherwise, the vouchers would all really just expire on the latest date showing in the current list available. I say this because it seems like some are acting as if the shows listed now are sold out or there isn't anything that works right now on the list, and that's it - the vouchers are unusable forever after. Surely that's not the case, is it??? If it is, then that is fucking nonsense.

    So, if they gave out $5 million more in tickets, it's most likely over.

    They expire in 2020 but TM will only put out shows til May 2017, and they will only do so at cap of 15 mil. So far they have done what they consider 2 runs for shows that they said are worth 5 mil each, now at combined 10 mil. It's bullshit with too many glitches. So I would assume that once they are capped at 15 mil, then they are done.

    Each class member gets 1 discount voucher for each Ticketmaster.com purchase made between October 21, 1999 and February 27, 2013, up to a maximum of 17 discount vouchers.
    If you used UPS delivery for your tickets during the class period, you also received 1 UPS voucher for each UPS delivery you paid for over the class period, up to a maximum of 17 UPS vouchers.
    All class members also received one ticket voucher, which is good for two eligible General Admission tickets, for each transaction the class member made over the class period, up to a maximum of 17 vouchers. This voucher is potentially redeemable for two eligible General Admission tickets for certain Live Nation concert events subject to availability and limitations. Please be aware that due to limited availability, we expect these settlement ticket vouchers to be redeemed quickly. Given the tremendous initial interest for these tickets, Ticketmaster will increase to $10 million its allotment of tickets made available through May 2017. The potential for additional tickets will be based on the redemption rates of the discount and UPS vouchers.

    UPDATE JUNE 23 10:00 PM EDT The eligible event list below has been updated with new tickets available for ticket voucher redemption subject to availability under the terms of the settlement. For frequently asked questions, click here.
    UPDATE JUNE 22 11:30 PM EDT At this time, nearly $5m worth of eligible ticket vouchers have been redeemed and the first wave of eligible events has been closed. Given the overwhelming interest, Ticketmaster is adding another $5m worth of eligible tickets so more class members can redeem ticket vouchers. Please check back tomorrow for additional information.
    UPDATE JUNE 21 1:35 AM EDT In 2003, the Schlesinger v. Ticketmaster class action lawsuit was filed alleging that Ticketmaster failed to fully disclose to consumers all aspects of its UPS and Order Processing Fees. While vigorously defending the lawsuit, Ticketmaster settled the case in 2013, with the court granting final approval of the settlement in February 2015. The settlement class includes all consumers who transacted on Ticketmaster.com from 1999-2013.


    The second wave of tickets are sold out now. So they've already done what they consider 10 mil as of now.

    It doesn't exactly say 15 mil is the cap, and I'm really not sure what is. But looks to me that there may only be 1 more run of the 5 mil offer sets. It's too vague to me to understand what the cap is. But I'm not counting on them to do much more than the minimum.

    It is really Vague. I think it's pretty shady to grant so many Vouchers with expiration dates then sell out leaving most people not even knowing what they had, and can't redeem them. Not to mention they don't even have shows in every state.

    I'm sure glad to be part of a settlement and given 17 vouchers with no shows in my state, and that sold out before I knew much about it. But at least I have some good looking voucher codes in my account I can't use now. Thanks

    Would be nice, if they did. I wouldn't bet on it either way. I'm not wasting anymore time on it. I tried getting a pair of tickets to Black Sabbath for a friend and kept getting the error page. Hope the people scalping their free tickets enjoy the little bit of $$ they're making.
