I brought a ticket for Madonna on 15th of October and received an email to say it was booked and now you have sent me an email saying that it is now refunded? Why is this?

Double8Tickets.com Refund For 2 Tickets For Cancelled Ozzy Osbourne UK Tour.

I bought tickets for Ozzy Osbourne UK tour in Sept 2018. The tour was postponed and rescheduled several times and eventually cancelled by the artist. Having paid £290 for 2 tickets, I tried to contact Double 8 at the beginning of February 2023 to get a refund. Double 8 will no longer respond to emails or phone calls, despite me trying to get a response for the last two weeks. I am not sure how I can resolve this matter, as Double 8 have shut up shop, if you want to contact them by phone or email.

Please can Double 8 put a notice on their website as to what they are doing about refunds for Ozzy Osbourne tickets, which should be on their website immediately the tour is cancelled. And can Double 8 please contact ticket holders as a matter of priority to confirm when they will be processing refunds for ticketholders.

Desired outcome: Refund of £290 as per Double 8 tickets terms and conditions please. Thank you.

Desired outcome: MY refund!

I finally got my refund. However, it was left for me to contact them by phone dispite confirming the original purchase by email and them also emailing info when the concerts were postponed.

Dispite me sending lots of emails did not answer any. Also it was very hard to get through on their phone lines. When I did get through I was phobed off the first time. The second time a refund was made but there was no email to say this had been done.

I wont be getting tickets ever again from them -to much stress and rotton customer service.

Double8Tickets.com Cancelled concert and no refund, no response to my queries either

Booked and paid £629.95 for Foo Fighters tickets on 21st August 2021, obviously the sad news of Taylor Hawkins resulted in the cancellation of the event. I received an email from double 8 tickets to say the event was cancelled on the 31st March and that I'd be refunded, they said to allow up to 30 days for the refund to be received. It's now been almost 4 months and nothing, I've emailed which they've simply ignored, I got the automated response which says they aim to respond within 14 which is utter rubbish as they've just ignore the email.

Desired outcome: Full refund and interest!

Double8Tickets.com 2 concert tickets to see Michael Buble at Bath's Royal Crescent on Friday 15th July bought from Double8Tickets.com

Hi

As you can see from my order confirmation when you look at the picture. I paid double8tickets £250 + £9.95 for Michael Buble tickets which have just been emailed to me showing a far less value set of 2 tickets valued at £140 plus 2x £9.95. They also have a different name on them not mine.

Can you please explain why AND REIMBURSE ME asap. The concert is in 2 days time and I do not feel safe that these are genuine tickets that have been emailed to me; nor are they the value of the tickets I paid for 18 months ago.

Kind regards

Hayley Hayes

Desired outcome: Full refund asap as I do not trust these tickets - they are not the ones I paid for.

Double8Tickets.com Lady Gaga Tickets

Im very frustrated with this company. I bought 2 tickets for Lady Gaga concert in August 2020. The concert was reschuled to July 2022 but I cant go. I tried to get the refund since last year but the company always give an excuse. For now the company says that they will resell my tickets but the question is WHEN. I just wanna receive my refund or they give me my tickets and my self resell them. The worst experience that I have.

Double8Tickets.com Refund of tickets bought for Lionel Richie tour subsequently cancelled

I was informed on the 2nd Feb that Lionel Richie had cancelled his tour due to the on going Covid situation, totally understandable.

Now its the 22nd Feb, and I am still waiting for the £460 refund to be returned to me.

Other companies turnaround for refunds due to a multitude of different reasons:

New Look - 1 day

Hilton Hotel - 1 day

Superdry - 1 day

Guinness Storehouse - 2 days

Just Eat - 1 day

Why does it take Double 8 Tickets, 20 days and counting to process a refund. No follow up email to explain reason for delay, email address that comes back "do not reply". I wont be buying tickets from them, ever again.

Shocking service.

Desired outcome: My money back as promised.

Box Office ticket sales and Ticketmaster are crooks. Won't give refunds not even for seniors. When u call the phone rings and you get disconnected. I paid almost 800 for two tickets. I can come back. I DONT LUCE IN NY. They should be ashamed of themselves. Never going to any of their concerts anymore.

Double8Tickets.com Payment

I booked tickets for Cliff Richard on 18 October 2021, the performance is on 27 October 2021. My tickets shows the performance date as 18 October 2021.
I checked to see if I had made an error but I booked for Royal Albert Hall and Cliff Richard is not booked for Royal Albert Hall on 18 October.

I have tried to phone all the registered and advertised numbers for Double8 they are all not working.

I have sent 2 emails

The first to confirm my ticket is for 27 October not 18 October - no response

The second to say I would like my tickets cancelled and a refund - no response

Desired outcome: Ticket Cancellation and Full Refund

Double8Tickets.com Totally ruined my summer

I booked Reading Festival tickets and never received them. I emailed asking for a refund and never received any reply. I called about 20 times chasing fisrt my tickes and then my refund and either there was no answer or they just hung up on me. I have contacted watchdog who are very interested in my story and every else who has been ripped off by the incompetent touts. Finally I contacted my credit card issuer who has now issued me with a refund on the basis of "goods not received". However thats besides the point. My summer was totally ruined because of them and i spent hours worrying and chasing. What goes around comes around in this life and i sincerely hope they get what they deserve!

Double8Tickets.com Fraud and cheating

My Madonna tickets were fake and I had to buy alternatives from the touts outside. Trading standards have been notified as well as watchdog who are running a special segment just on these fraudsters.

Double8Tickets.com Ridiculous situation

Ha! This is a joke! I am still waiting for my Kings Of Leon tickets for their gig at the O2 Arena and I know for a fact that they have already been released as my friend who booked directly from Ticketmaster has already received his tickets in hand. So I try to call their "hotline" continuously but there is no answer at all. After about 20 unsuccessfull attempts I finally get through this extremely rude obnoxious little girl who had absolutely no information about my tickets and ended up hanging up the phone on me! If you check their website they have a "beware" section warning people against touts however it is obviously window dressing as they go on sc*mming people. I have contacted me credit card issuer (Natwest) who have told me that if the tickets do not arrive until after the concert then i can claim my money back. However what good is that going to be if I miss my favourite band? This situation is ridiculous and I am seeking legal advice.

Totally disgusted with what just happened. Rude girl just put the phone down on me.
I purchased tickets last year for the NTA awards. Not cheap. Received an email from double8tickets asking to call them urgently. Eventually got through after two days. they just don't pick up. I spoke to a lady called Amy. she was polite and helpful. she told me that they had a problem with their server and my tickets had never gone thorough but my money had been taken. I was offered what they had left, not as good as my tickets. This happened to be the week I was going. Amy said if there was a show I was interested in going to, that I could call in a I would be able to get a discount as a goodwill gesture.
Load of rubbish, I phoned up and asked for Amy. Was told she had left and if they could help. Once I started explaining they put the phone down on me. How rude. I've tried to ring back countless times and they either won't answer the phone or cut me off straight away.
BAD MANNERED, RUDE.
