YOUR CONSUMER RIGHTS CHAMPION
If you've missed out on grabbing tickets to see your favourite artist play live recently, you might be feeling that the odds are stacked against you when it comes to booking online.
The same goes for bagging a spot at a sporting event. Even a humble theatre trip can be an impossible dream when you are trying to snap up a seat at the latest “hot ticket” show.
