long shot. has anyone purchased adele tickets for someone else at wembley next year?.
They were bought in my name and theyre saying no entry if the name is incorrect.
And names can't be transferred.
Pretty scummy they released this information after the sales. Sales a month before christmas???????? what did they expect, people were obviously going to buy them as gifts.
You've got two options here:Quote:

Alternatively, get in touch with the ticket issuer and explain the situation to them. I'm guessing this has been done to stop touts. When I got my Iron Maiden tickets a while back, it was all done ticketless - basically the name on the order has to turn up with confirmation of ID and the card used to purchase the tickets. All this was explained prior to tickets going on sale. On the Iron maiden site there was an email address so you could get in touch if there was a problem e.g if you lose the card you paid with etc.
No thanks!.Quote:

Where it'll be first come first serve - no way of directly selling. :facepalm:
Just realised I should have emailed "songkick" the ticket issuer, not the resale platform....
Give the individual your driving license to take with them on the night as evidence, shouldn't be an issue thenQuote:

Seems to be a growing trend these days dealing with problems online rather than giving out an actual telephone number.Quote:

you deserve everything you get buying tickets to adeleQuote:

so i went on the Facebook page, funny enough, that night the CEO e.mailed me and the problem was dealt with

Within an hour he was getting private messages from the owner promising to sort his pay by the end of the day and if they did, would he take the message down? My mate basically told him that the message would stay up until the money was in his account. Two days later the sum owed (about £800) miraculously appeared in his bank.
He left the message up just to teach them a lesson.
The other way to go about these things is to get an email address for somebody high up and have a rant. Most of the time the people up high have no idea about just how shit their customer service actually is. I once sent an epic essay of a rant to some bloke way up the chain in Talk Talk. He offered me all sorts of free stuff just so I would leave him alone.

I summarised the situation , calmly and politely, on the Carriers' Facebook .
Badda bing - fixio rapido.
If option 2 is selected he will miss City's pre season tour of GwentQuote:

Some class replies 😂
Reading this thread made me wonder, do you need our names? :biggrin:Quote:

Thanks.
Sorry mate, this was about ten years ago when I had the misfortune to get my Internet off them. Even if I could find the email address he's probably moved on.Quote:

Talk Talk are complete tossers.
Adele is common.
Refund it is.
They're refusing to transfer the name of the attendee with a set of tickets due to be released in 5 months time....When I have every piece of information they need to confirm I bought them.
