LOL, 'booking fee'....... because they can.
Free money innit. They think we're thick. Total lack of respect.

Erm, nothing.

I imagine there are probably in the region of 50,000 individual orders per show incurring the £2 "booking" fee. £100,000. Per year. I'd say the costs of the system will have been covered hundreds of times over by now.

Crikey Dan, they can almost afford to have you back!! :tongue:
You caaan't trust the system... Maaan!

Just a quick question on the tickets, rather than start a new thread.

Going to book my tickets this week, only doing Sat & Sun but does the money come out of your account right away after booking, or do they take it closer to the event?

Really not a fan of events that don't take the money until closer to the show lol. Prefer to have it paid for right away.

The 'E-Tickets' should also be available for printing straight away as well.
