Unplayed playoff game refunds

[yankeesrule]

How long does it normally take to get your money back for unplayed playoff games? For example I have wild card tixx that will be going unused.

Thanks!

Me too. I can't remember the exact time frame but I think we get reimbursed fairly quickly.

Got my refund 30 minutes ago, although there is a temporary hold on it with paypal...

good to know it's that quick. I paid through my credit card which usually doesn't show refunds until after it goes through completely so I'll expect it sometime early next week.

Do they still keep the $6.00 fee?

Has anyone else gotten screwed out of the $2.50 e-ticket and $3.00 processing fees on their refunds?

I paid $79.80 and they only gave me a $74 credit

It was weird for me I had a $5.80 credit and a $80 credit when I viewed my credit card statement. I paid $85.80.

I do see that on one of my cards, on the other they didn't refund the fees. Weird that they would break out the cost like that

[Icon23]

Separating the cost components makes sense to me on the refund. One entity gets the ticket revenue, a different one collects the fees.

Yeah but how many years have they been doing this? This is the first year I've noticed a breakout in refunded payments

Nothing associated with the Yankees surprises me anymore. Last year I had 20 game plan #2 and a Sunday plan. The tickets I got from the Sunday presale were refunded quickly. 20 game plan #2 guaranteed tickets took so long that I finally called my credit card company to say they weren't legit charges on my card.

Because the Sat plan tickets were bought thru TM while the 20s were thru the Yankee box office . . but no excuse.

So the dillweeds at ticketmaster are refusing to refund the $5.80 (3.30 + 2.50) fee on one of my wildcard ticket orders, saying these are not refundable (total BS, I have an other order where they were automatically refunded).

What would you guys do, go straight to a charge back?

Call up the credit card company and dispute the charges. I've done it before.

Can you point me to the language where they say full refunds will be given? I can't find it

Gordon, I cut out the personal information, but the email address you have your ticketbastard account linked to should have gotten a similar message. My credit card has been refunded the full purchase price, including F-U fees...

Same email as the person above me....

The ONLY way I see then screwing you is if you purchased them by a link NOT from the licensee email / page, but from a generic TM web page, but used your pre-sale code none-the-less.

I'd still dispute the charge. If you are in rock-star standing with your credit card company, they will just give you the dispute, as it isn't worth their time... But I'd like to screw T-M anyway...


Good luck!
-Doug

I don't have it but it was given that refund. I would just call up the credit card company and say you were told it was being refunded. Chances are ticketmaster won't even bother trying to fight a $5.80 charge.

I was at Billy's a couple years ago and was overcharged $10 on the tip. I was pissed so I called up Amex and told them what happened. Billy's never responded to the claim so I had $10 refunded to the card.

[sorianoNY12]

well my days as a yankee full season ticket holder are over, looking forward to this refund

[yankeesrule]

So I have a monkey wrench in all this... My wife had her wallet stolen and we had all credit card numbers changed... I hope getting these refunds... And a lot of them.. Wont be too hard

Don't worry. The credit card company knows both the old number and new number. You'll get your refund. I had a similar thing happen a year or two ago. There were some fraudulent charges made to my card number (I still had the card) so my card company cancelled that number and issued me a new one. A refund for a purchase I had made with the old number showed up on my new account just fine.

That's relieving to hear... Thanks!

[GordonGecko]

world series charges have already been reversed. Can't say the same about ALCS game 6 & 7 charges though

[YankeeSTH]

My refund for ALCS game 6 from Ticketmaster showed up on my AMEX statement dated Friday 10/19. Anyone know when the Yankees will refund unplayed post season games bought on the 3 payment plan by credit card to STHers?

[yankeejohn]

My ST World Series game has not been refunded yet. Not really worried, just checking in.
