Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

everyone keep their eyes open on viagogo...even if they are upper tier, for that price, who cares?

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

Yup sounds like those tickets were completely mismarked, but as Cartman (lol) says, for so little money it hardly matters!

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

That's not good, there are no way 500+ seats on the floor row.
There is a very generic floor plan for the venue on their website:

As you can see there are probably 50 seats in each row on the floor (if that)

I did point this out at the time...

But for that price..who cares! lol

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

on that o2 floor plan i have counted like 45 seats in one row for C blocks..lool and for one of my concerts i have C3 row D seat 53 (bought from tm)

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

maybe those who bought the cheap tickets should email via and asks whats gone on. obviously the seat numbers are wrong. and via shouldnt be selling wrongly advertised seats to start with.but like others say theres nothing to be gained from ppl sellng fake tickets as they get charged and wont recieve payment anyway or maybe the seller doesnt care as its only a small amount of money and they presume the buyer wont care cause the tickets were so cheap anyway

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

Guys you should also keep an eye on your credit card account for any unusual activity...

There were people who had their card details taken by hackers who targeted people's computers when they were making purchases on Ebay. So just keep an eye out...

If the tickets are genuine, a great bargain!

 

[blue_eyed_belle]

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

I agree with Katz and gLove, when something looks too good to be true it probably (but not always) is - check all bank statements, as remember that people sell via viagogo so there could be something dodgy going on. Hopefully they are genuine though

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

just got an email from viagogo saying that the seller still didnt confirm the transaction and that they contacted him now because of that. they will get back to be withing 2 days.

[Ágnes]

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

[SpunkyFunky]

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

The thing is though, if the whole arena is sold out, how can they provide you with similar/better tickets? I'm sure there won't be many empty seats..
But at least you'll get your money back

 

[Ágnes]

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

i wonder if you can choose to get your money back or get similar or better seat or viagogo tells it what they choose.

wow maybe you who bought these cheap upper tier tickets end up receiving front row ones at the end

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

update just had this email from viagogo


Unfortunately we have had to cancel your transaction at the pre confirmation stage. This means that you should not be expecting any tickets for the transaction ID below and your payment method has not been charged. Please disregard any previous phone or e-mail communication regarding this order.

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

shit

Re: 18 pound tickets on viagogo now

just got a ticket for a1 row q for 18 pound


18 jan

update another email

We apologise, but we will be forced to cancel Transaction ID: xxxxx This was indeed a false listing by an unscrupulous seller. We have blocked this member from our website. Please bear in mind that we have not charged your card for this transaction, so by canceling the transaction, we have merely cancelled the authorisation amount. This order will not show up in your account after being cancelled.

 

[Lorraine]

Well I guess we cant be too surprised? I'm not anyways.. always thought someone fishy about it LOL so not disappointed myself at all.


I'll check my mail when I get home from work to see if I have had the same thing.

 

[SpunkyFunky]

yeah same here, i already thought it was fake, but im still disappointed to know it now lol

 

[Lorraine]

I've just checked on my Viagogo account and it's showing as cancelled, The money for mine was taken from my bank straight away. They better put it back LOL! :lol:
