Online ticket buying advice:
Because of the recent spate of ticket scams committed by companies highly ranked on Google and yahoo, TicketTimeuk.net feel it necessary to issue this checklist to see if you are dealing with a bonafide company that will deliver your tickets.
1.Do not buy tickets from a company that does not display a phone number! (or hides it in the small print).
2.Do not buy tickets from a company that does not display an address! (or hides it in the small print). Make sure they have a reputable, legitimate address. Try to avoid PO Boxes.
3. Be very wary buying tickets from a company registered overseas. If you live in London and want to go to the O2 Arena or Wembley why buy from a company registered in Hungary, USA or Spain!!
4. Be extra vigilant when buying festival tickets. Unfortunately, as most of you know, festival tickets are always held back by the promoter’s until a few days before the event. This enables the scammers / rogue trader’s to sell tickets for months without people panicking about the delivery of their tickets until the last minute.
5. If a ticket company does not take credit card payments or even worse asks you to pay by bank transfer then stay well away.
6. If a ticket company is selling tickets at face value or BELOW face value then ask yourself why ,especially if the event is a highly sought after concert or festival, how can they do this considering the high advertising costs incurred from Google or Yahoo.
Please pass this important advice onto your friends & family it could save you & them a lot of heartache as well as your hard earnt money.
