My wife bought Rugby tickets for the Ireland v Wales game as a Christmas gift. The tickets did not arrive and I must admit I was abit worried prior to the game. The guy on the phone assured me he would meet me on the day of the game. True to his word he was there on the day and provided the tickets,he even provided me premium tickets which I wasn't expecting. I saw some negative stories about this Seller but just thought id post my recent experience with them.

Firstly they posted the tickets to me for the wrong date, Secondly, a rep met me at the door of the 02 with my replacement tickets on the night. When we got inside, I can safely say we had the worst ticket in the entire place. Like an idiot I paid €360 for what I believed were good enough seats. Our tickets had complimentary printed on them. Obviously seats that were impossible to sell. When I complained to needaticket, I was eventually offered a refund of €50.00 Knowing I was not going to get anywhere with these guys, I eventually accepted their offer, and guess what, 7 months later I'm still waiting for my €50 Would I ever deal with these guys again, definitely not Would I recommend them, definitely not, When I find how to upload photos I'll provide ones of the view we had and the ticket itself.

Interesting that the ticket was marked as complimentary - these are usually given to media for giveaways or for assorted guest list people. They must have been working all their contacts to pull those ones in for you. If you still have the ticket stub - send the promoter an email with the details. They'll probably have a record who the tickets were issued to.

Ticketmaster are the legit ticket agents for big concerts in Ireland and it's in their T&C that tickets cannot be resold. Need a ticket re-sell tickets at a higher price. That means the definition of something other than "a legit ticket marketing company".
6.8 You may not resell or transfer your tickets if prohibited by law. In addition, Event Partners may prohibit the resale or transfer of tickets for some events. Any resale or transfer (or attempted resale or transfer) of a ticket in breach of the applicable law or any restrictions imposed by the Event Partner is grounds for seizure or cancellation of that ticket without refund or other compensation.

Following my post of july last I had a call from Needaticket the next day, claiming they sent me the €50 cheque etc etc. However following their own search with their bank, they admitted the cheque was never cashed. Anyhow after several emails back and forward the sent to me a cheque for €50 plus a credit note for €150 to use against future tickets purchased from themselves. After talking to them on the phone, to be very sure of what I was being offered, they agreed to let me have 2 tickets for Andre Rieu at the 02 dec 6th 2014 at a total cost to me of €100. This is based on me returning the cheque and the credit note to them. So a good result for me and for needaticket also. Thanks to boards.ie for providing the forum to air my grievance.

I'd have seen dealing with it before you had to come here as doing that. It must sicken them that if you search for needaticket on google that this thread is the second result!
