A question about : thefootballticketshop.com

Hi can anyone help me with this one... i purchased 2 Tina turner tickets through a website that said it was Tina turners own site. however they have taken my money out of my account and they say that the tickets will be sent 7 day before the event, which is march next year the tickets are on sale now why cant they send them or is this a con.
Has anyone else done business with them are they reputable?

Best answers:

• cant say i know of the site but its pretty normal for tickets to be sold well in advance and then send them a week or 2 before the event takes place.
• Thanks ... its the first time i have done this and its a present...you here so many bad things and are never sure about a website
• we had a similar thing with take that, through ticketmaster we bought the tickets 6 months before the show in december but only got the tickets two weeks before the actual concert date. reason given is that they simply don't produce them before. have to say haven't heard of the website before though.
• I think it depends on the venues and ticket operators.
  I have this happen to me too - paying months in advance and they only turn up a week or so before the gig and other times the tickets have arrived almost immediately.
  No rhyme or reason.
• Thanks everyone ... i will try to stop panicing...the only problem now is if the tickets dont turn up is there any way to get a refund,This site says its in the states but i think it must have a uk base somewhere to be able to send the tickets out within 7 days :confused:
• Hello all...
  HAS ANYONE ACTUALLY NOT RECEIVED THEIR TICKETS FROM SFT.COM? I'VE GOT V TICKETS ON THE WAY, AND NEED TO KNOW IF ANYONE HAS ACTUALLY BEEN RIPPED OFF???
• If you paid by credit card you will be ok.
• I've also bought 2 tickets for Coldplay next Monday, 1 December through footballticketshop.com and have tried again and again to contact them as we have received nothing, although the money was taken out of our account in September. Is there anything we can do - who can we contact?

• If footballticketshop.com have our credit card details are we now open to further credit card fraud by them?
• Hi Lady M
  We've started trying to get our money back from Mastercard. We have to write a letter with all the evidence we have of the purchase. I'm a bit worried however, that these guys have our card details and might be waiting for an opportunity to use it.

• Hiya...I bought Tina Tuner tickets back last May for this coming March, yet I have not received them. I am tried going back into the website and it is saying it is suspended. After reading some of the comments below is this site real or a con?
  Thanks
