Petition Action

To stop companies selling sports or concert tickets with huge hidden charges.

Petition Details

I Purchased 2 tickets from Viagogo, original price, £80 each. Upon checkout I was charged £440. I had high pressure sales tactics to pay within 10 minutes. There was no indication of fees until after payment. Viagogo has links on their site for charges but you are not prompted to these links.

Additional Information

I am not the first to experience Viagogo's shocking tactics as this Facebook link will testify to other peoples experiences.

These high pressure sales tactics are underhand and must be made clearer.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure what specific action you'd like Government or Parliament to take.

If you would like to change the law to ban the resale of tickets for more than their face value, you might like to sign this petition:

You could also start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
