Which? responds to the news that the CMA could take legal action against Ticketmaster in the wake of the Oasis controversy
Lisa Webb, Which? Consumer Law Expert, said:
“Which? has been sounding the alarm for months on Ticketmaster’s pricing practices for the Oasis reunion, so it’s disappointing to see the CMA has still not obtained the necessary promises from Ticketmaster that it will not breach consumer law in future.
“With the much anticipated Oasis tour kicking off on Friday, it’s crucial that the CMA acts quickly to send a clear signal that any possible breaches of the law won’t be tolerated. Too much harm has already been done to fans who paid over the odds last year.
“Since the CMA and Which? agree that there are serious legal concerns in the way that Oasis tickets were sold, Ticketmaster must be made to take responsibility and begin reimbursing fans who were affected by its seemingly unfair pricing practices.”
