    amazon would NEVER issue a public apology. Doing so would admit wrong-doing and that's a big no-no.


    really

    Amazon Chief Executive Jeff Bezos apologised for a random price test in which the price quoted for certain DVD's was randomised in order to test the relationship between pricing and sales.The scheme, which was apparently trialed for five days, was discovered after an Amazon.com customer discovered that the price displayed for a certain DVD dropped after he removed the Amazon.com cookie from his PC. Amazon.com have since refunded money to all those who payed more than the baseline price for merchandise during the experiment.

    For those of you who said I just do not get it...I do...you are disappointed you did not get tix...and that's all there is to it....if you would have got tix you would not be complaining..right? Tell me no and you are a liar!

    There really is not more to it.

    You have FORUM to complain, and I have a FORUM to say give it a rest...you have no given right to tickets, and pearl jam and the 10C do not owe you a reason on why their server crashed.

    But if you are wondering why the server crashed...see someone hitting purchase 115 times?

    It dissappoints me that for few posts I do have on this site anymore that it has to deal with spoiled fans whom think they are above everything and deserve the world because they pay to be part of the club...why not more posts like hit your IPOD shuffle and name the first ten songs, your dream setlist, etc...these discussions never end with people arguing.

    Again I did not get tix either and really would have liked to seen one of these shows...am I bithcing no...I am thankful that on the last full tour I sat in the first 30 rows 7 times....that's fucking AWESOME.

    Seriously, you don't get it, do you?
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    Maybe not a tv, but you bet your ass they'd apologize. I fell in a department store once and a bunch of the staff as well as two managers ran directly for me. Two days later, the corporate office manager called to "see how i was doing" and to apologize for the incident.

    10c know they've messed up. An apology wouldn't hurt.

    We would get in serious trouble if we apologized. as I said, it admits wrong doing and most lawyers strongly advise against it. If you had sued the department store, their apologizing would have been held against them--- they couldn't have argued that it wasn't their fault.

    Dont expect anything like that from the Ten Club... they like to publicly pretend nothing is wrong by saying nothing... it is really awesome customer service.

    soooorrrrrrrrrrrrr.......

    try it :)
    I need to apologize? For.....? Hoping that she was making a joke? Because the idea of a company charging a CC or a series of CCs for $16,000+ in a short span of time is absurd? I was hoping she was kidding because for awhile, it seemed like there was a chain of people coming out of the woodwork with higher and higher amounts of authorizations for tickets they'll never see. The highest $ I had seen before this was $6K or so. $16K is unfathomable, that nobody thought that "Hey waaaait a sec, something's not right here" on either her banks end, or the 10Cs end. So, no I'm not sorry I thought she was kidding?

    Or are you saying the 10C needs to apologize? If so, yeah, I agree, they DO need to apologize. Publically, for sure. Privately, yes. And things need to be made right. And people should not have to chase down their banks to get these charges cleared from their accounts.

    that's a little different. Youhave to weigh your options and there are lots of things to consider.... will apologizing help to avoid a lawsuit or will apologizing open the door to a lawsuit? How serious is the issue at hand?

    anyway... fascinating situation 10C has on their hands... and it's not even a pearl jam show! LMAO!

    The thing is, because I had to deal with this situation after a poster sale, the bank will more than likely tell you they cant do anything because it is an authorization hold from the merchant. The only people that can remove "in limbo" authorizations is the merchant who put them there in the first place.

    The reason Ten Club wont reverse these authorizations is their merchant account probably charges a fee for each reversal. They need a new system... but they choose to keep this one... :rolleyes:

    i dont agree on the difference... basically if Amazon allowed $$$$$ to be taken out of peoples accounts because of a glitch in their servers when the latest Harry Potter was released i'd bet that they'd issue an apology.. as should 10C.

    From the 10C

    HI Sue.

    It appears that your credit card has been authorized for an excessive amount of charges from multiple attempts to purchase tickets. However, you have secured 2 tickets to the Berkeley show ...

    In order to settle the credit card issues, we will need you to fax your bank or credit card issuing bank fax number so we can contact them and have the authorizations removed from your account.

    We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Thanks
    10C Staff

    ___________________________________________________

    Replied by me:

    Will they just "disappear" in the next few days if we do nothing? I think I tried 4 different CC's multiple times... Too much to think about if it will correct itself, otherwise I will do it.

    Sue

    ____________________________________________________

    Reply from the 10C

    Yes, the charges will automatically be removed within 7-10 business days. Mind you, there are approximately 115 transactions under your name ... So you may want to take care of it sooner than later.


    Thanks
    10C Staff

    _____________________________________________________

    At this point I forwarded them all the info they needed to reverse the charges. THEY contacted me, I did not contact them. I didn't need to run out and spend 16k on any of my CC's in the next few days, plus, I have others and I keep a 0 balance on them all. I won't apologize for paying all of my bills on time and having good credit; Call bullshit all you want. This was never supposed to be something I was going to have to prove myself on.. I just thought it was funny because I didn't realize how many times I failed and then clicked "check out" once again. That's how it occurred. I finally let my cart clear later that evening and gave up. 10C handled my situation very well.

    Peace

    First off you didn't spend $16k, it's on hold and will be reversed eventually...the transaction did not officially go through. What you offered was no valid proof that you had 115 transactions processed for tickets. And honestly I don't even really care. I could easily write:

    _________________________________________________________________
    Hi Jeff,

    This is the 10c and it appears by our records that you have submitted 300 transactions, which will show as bending on our bank account/credit card.

    Thanks,

    10c Staff

    just curious ... was it just you that had those 115 transactions? Or did you have a few people working with your CC and password?

    if it was just you, I want your secret on getting through! ;)

    Very well said! I believe you have been a true sport about all this. I dont understand why people feel like putting people down like RM is doing?
    He totally has seemed to misinterpreted your posts on here. I don't see someone who is lying, bragging and bitching about this problem. The opposite is what I see.

    Hope to meet you some day at a show Zanne!

    Have a great day you all,
