Which? responds as Oasis presale tickets relisted at above face value prices on resale platforms

Lisa Webb, Which? Consumer Law Expert, said:

"Oasis fans are understandably eager to snap up tickets to the reunion tour, but we'd strongly advise against buying any of the resale tickets currently popping up online at inflated prices. Not only is there a chance that some of these listings could be scam attempts, but even legitimate tickets could be cancelled, rendering them invalid, if they are sold outside of the official resale platforms or at above face value.

"Resale tickets should only be listed on the official resale platforms, Twickets or Ticketmaster Fan-to-Fan exchange, and at no more than the price that was paid (its face value plus booking fees) originally.

"If you buy through the official seller you'll be entitled to a refund if the show is cancelled but if you buy through a secondary ticket seller, you may not get your money back. We'd also recommend paying using your credit card if the tickets cost more than £100, or by PayPal, which also offers an extra layer of protection provided you choose "paying for an item or service" rather than "sending to a friend"."
