    this is such a typical big business screw the consumer I'll show you. So offer us vouchers to virtually all crap shows with some states having no shows at all. Why do they get to pick? What a joke

    I wanna know if I can purchase tickets with my code and then give those tickets to someone else.

    Yes, just send/e-mail the PDF file for the tickets, and let them print them off. Or if they're close, you print them off and give them to them. They're just regular tickets.
    In that case my tickets won't ALL go to waste.

    It wouldn't accept any of my voucher codes (tried 3 out of 10 or so) for any of the shows that were linked to. I chose the cheapest GA tickets too.

    NONE of my codes worked either, I've tried a bunch of shows in other states just to see. SO, what's the point of this and now any of the shows I wanted in my area are all sold out for vouchers. TM screws us all again!!

    Maybe some good shows will become available tomorrow or very soon.

    "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."

    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...
