So, everyone is talking about Ticketmaster, and they are RAGING
In case you missed it, tickets for Coldplay's Croke Park gig went on sale yesterday morning, and despite queuing, refreshing, sweating and praying, countless fans emerged from their mission empty-handed.
And if Twitter is anything to go by, disgruntled fans know exactly who they want to blame.
Venting fury at Ticketmaster, members of the public have accused the outlet of providing their sister company with tickets which were ultimately sold at a higher price – an accusation which the company have denied.
Between the gig selling out in under forty minutes and tickets going for re-sale soon after, Twitter is not happy.
Shame on you all #Ticketmaster picking the pockets of music fans. Your business practices are immortal and unethical.
