New Yellow River reporter noticed that since this year, concerts have been held all over the country, and the related issues of consumer rights are also quite prominent, which have triggered heated discussions on the Internet many times. Among them, people who bought concert tickets worth thousands of yuan but could not see the singer almost the whole time have been exposed many times. It has also become a typical case in the "Analysis of Hot Topics in Complaints Accepted by the National Consumers Association in the First Half of 2023".
"The refund policies for JJ Lin's concerts in different regions are not uniform," named by the Jiangsu Provincial Consumer Protection Commission.
html On May 9, the Jiangsu Provincial Consumer Protection Commission released a special report on the entertainment performance market. The article named the refund policies for JJ Lin's concerts as inconsistent. Subsequently, related topics became hot searches on Weibo. Thereport pointed out that the refund policies for JJ Lin’s Suzhou concert on May 25, Harbin concert on June 22, and Tianjin concert on April 13 were inconsistent and could easily mislead consumers.
Take JJ Lin’s recent concert as an example:
For JJ Lin’s concert in Suzhou on May 25, the refund handling fee is divided into 4 levels according to the time period: unconditional refund, 20% of the ticket price, 50% of the ticket price, refunds are not supported, according to Based on the ticket price of his concerts ranging from RMB 380 to RMB 1,880, the refund fee ranges from a few hundred to nearly a thousand RMB.
is also the JJ Lin concert in Harbin on June 22. Ticket refunds are divided into three levels according to time: unconditional refund, 30% of the ticket price, and no refund.
However, there is no unconditional refund rule for the Tianjin concert on April 13. Refunds are divided into three levels based on time periods: 3% of the ticket price, 30% of the ticket price, and no refund.
Recently, some fans reported that the same "performer" identity information actually grabbed tickets for JJ Lin's Jinan concert on May 11 on both platforms, spending a total of 2,360 yuan. They wanted to apply for a change or refund, but were blocked by the organizer. and rejection from the ticketing platform. However, some fans later said that the platform had promised to refund the tickets.
For concerts by the same singer, refund policies are not uniform in different regions, which misleads consumers. In recent years, the entertainment performance market has shown great vigor and vitality. However, as the performance categories continue to be enriched and consumers' enthusiasm for watching performances continues to rise, "platter" concerts are "watered down", refund fees are high, and "pillar tickets" are purchased. Many problems also emerged, seriously affecting consumers' viewing experience.
