Article image for Refund Protection: More Important Than You Think

Date

10th September 2019

It’s a normal Tuesday morning, nothing out of the ordinary is happening. Another standard nine-to-five day spent scrolling through feed-after-feed of memes, cat videos and those passive-aggressive posts aimed at "no-one in particular" when suddenly out of nowhere you see it.

Pixies are coming to the Ulster Hall.

This is easily going to be the hottest ticket in town. Time to get your ducks in a row:

  • Tag your mates
  • Screen shot to alert the WhatsApp group
  • Multiple devices primed and ready for the 10am on-sale
  • Refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh……YOU’RE IN
  • Tickets got. Panic over.

The show may be eight months away but that doesn’t stop the plans getting put into action; babysitters booked, new outfits bought, dinner reservations made. Nothing is going to get between you and the Pixies.

However, sometimes things just aren’t meant to be. Just when you think life is going fine and dandy, all of sudden you’re hit with a sharp dose of reality. There is no worse feeling than looking forward to an event, spending £40+ on a ticket and finding out that you’re unable to attend in the end.

The equivalent of a true, modern day heartbreak.

We get it, you work hard for your money and want to spend it and enjoy it on things that you love. So when an unfortunate dose of reality hits, your immediate first thought is, “Am I able to refund my ticket?”

Luckily for our customers, we’re committed to delivering a world class experience for all of our customers and that includes when you can’t make it to an event! We have partnered with award-winning refund specialists, Booking Protect, to offer this brand-new service to our customers.

For a small fee, that’s worked out at 6% of your ticket price, you can now protect your ticket purchase should you be unable to attend the show for reasons outside of your control. With top-class ratings on Trustpilot and as being one of the only providers to include pregnancy, it was an obvious choice for us.

Now you can get those tickets with peace of mind. Find out more about Refund Protection.
