Jiangsu Consumer Protection Commission named!
The harsh conditions for grabbing tickets
are the focus of discussion among consumers
But in fact, even if you recharge 488 yuan to become a member
you are only qualified to grab tickets
It does not mean that you can get the tickets directly
If you fail to grab the tickets later in the ticket grabbing process
The membership fees recharged to concert tickets
cannot be refunded
The Jiangsu Provincial Consumer Protection Commission believes:
my country's "Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law" stipulates that consumers have the right to fair transactions, and also stipulates that operators shall not use standard terms, Make notifications, statements, etc., to exclude or limit consumer rights that are unfair and unreasonable to consumers. Since concert tickets are publicly sold, as a consumer, you have equal rights to purchase concert tickets. Restricting the right to purchase concert tickets by setting conditions such as prepaid membership fees violates the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and is suspected of bundled sales.
's "no return or exchange once sold" rule is also suspected of using format clauses to infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of consumers from a legal perspective. Previously, the "Notice on Further Strengthening the Standardized Management of Large-scale Commercial Performance Activities to Promote the Healthy and Orderly Development of the Performance Market" jointly issued by the cultural tourism and public security departments clearly stated "Performance organizers should establish a refund mechanism for large-scale performance events and set reasonable The tiered refund fee standards ensure the legitimate refund rights of ticket buyers."
The Jiangsu Provincial Consumer Protection Commission calls on
organizers to take a long-term view, put respect for the interests of consumers first, and use diversified ticket sales methods to increase adhesion with fans. It is understandable, but more fair and reasonable ways to grab tickets should still be considered. .
breaks unreasonable purchase restrictions and clarifies the tiered refund mechanism, so that more and more people are willing to join in and enjoy the performance, and do not let the "fan economy" turn into an "idol grave".
