O’Mahony calls on Ticketmaster to refund booking fee on Garth Brooks tickets

Fine Gael Mayo TD and Chairman of the Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications, has today (Tuesday) called on Ticketmaster to refund booking fees as well as the ticket price to Garth Brooks fans.

“Garth Brooks fans will be left feeling very disappointed this evening, following the announcement that all five concerts have now been cancelled. The last thing they need is for booking fees to be excluded from ticket refunds.

“Customers paid up to €6.10 per ticket, which quickly adds up if you are buying multiple tickets. In many cases, families had planned to go together, and if booking fees are not refunded they will be left considerably out of pocket.

“Customers are not at fault here, and therefore they should not be penalised because the concerts have been cancelled. I am calling on Ticketmaster to ensure all customers are refunded in full; that means the full ticket price and any booking fees paid.”
