WARNING - getmetickets.net
Do not buy any concert tickets from getmetickets.net
I purchased 4 tickets above retail price from this company 2 weeks before the gig - they promised that the tickets would arrive no later than 3 days before the event. When I didn't receive by the latest date I called them & was told that they would get someone to meet me on the day & hand the tickets over. When I said I wasn't happy with this they offered a full refund, which never came. I did manage to get some more tickets from another company but getmetickets.net never refunded the money or called to arrange the collection on the day. I am currently trying to get my money back, but have since learnt that they have appeared on Watchdog so I guess I'm in a long queue of not so happy live music fans! By the way - the concert was Ian Brown at Manchester MEN & it was fantastic - so up yours getmetickets.net |

Re: WARNING - getmetickets.net
This company were featured on BBC's Watchdog quite a while ago and they got a real slating for not delivering the goods.
