Ticketmaster Lawsuit
« on: June 19, 2016, 10:01:57 AM »
Have any of you guys heard about the lawsuit against Ticketmaster?

I'm not sure what it was about, but my son told me to check the Active vouchers tab in my account profile and low and behold in there were eight vouchers for $2.25 off of any ticket and eight vouchers each good for a pair of free tickets to any "eligible event." All of them are good until 2020. They are all marked as being part of the settlement. Now they have not yet published a list of what the eligible events are (I hope there are some that are A) relatively close to home and B) something I would care to see), but this is worth keeping an eye on.

I suggest that everyone who has purchased any tickets through Ticketmaster over the years log on to and check out their account to see what goodies might be lurking there.

No active vouchers in my account.

I did get an email notice sometime back stating that the vouchers would be available starting June 18.   But when I check my ticketmaster account for active vouchers, all I see is:

We are currently experiencing difficulties. Please check back again at a later time.

The actual available events are not listed yet either.

The GOOD news is I have discount coupons for $2.25 and free pairs of tickets vouchers in my account.  The BAD news is

Bill I wouldn't lose to much sleep over it. I looked at the list while it was still posted and could not find one NYC or LI concert on the list where I had even heard of the artist, never mind wanted to see them.  :roll:

My experience was the same... Even if I was willing to travel to attend an event, I found very little worth considering.
