"Unwind Backstage Bar"
The bar that was never backstage and now doesn't even exist... The whole thing is unwinding!

AEG is owned by Phil Anschutz, a billionaire, whose holding company is located in Denver, CO - where I live. If this does not get resolved in an acceptable way for Tier 1 & 2 purchasers, within a few days, I plan to visit their office and not leave until I can make a personal complaint with a responsible officer.

Well, this thread has become a real huge one? I can't really find my way through.
Could anyone highlight me, please?
- What's the final outlay of the concert ground now?
UNCHANGED - Tier1/2 on the side with access to a "garden" and loos...
- What's been the official reaction on the confusion, by the Stones or by the ticket vending offices?
Only AEG's boss has reacted, with a PR answer saying people could be refunded. I'd expect more developments today as everyone is back in office and to their emails though...
If these questions can be answered as of yet.
Thanks - dead.flowers

So not only do you have more money than sense but also more time too? Just downgrade to t3 and be glad they had the good will to let you, and stop throwing your dummy out of the pram.
At first I had sympathy with people who had purchased tickets that had a misleading description. However, it now seems that despite being offered various options that no other ticket holder has the choice of, they are still complaining. Will you not be content until the layout has been altered to your own personal choice to suit your selfish agenda to the detriment of the vast majority of concert goers?
Upgrade, downgrade or get your money back. Simple choice.

I'm very disapointed in The Stones right now, but I will never be an ex stones fan.
Have you heard Exile On Main St?

The promoters and the management are responable for this fiasco, not the Stones themselves...my opinion.

The Rolling Stones organisation is responsable, just like AEG is.

You mean the Stones should have refrained from wanting GA T3 to be at the front ?

Now I know for sure that you are a troll. I'll be ignoring all your posts from now on.

No I'm not a troll but just someone who has a different opinion to you but if the way you deal with anything that does not agree with your view is to ignore it and hope it goes away then you do that. In the meantime I will write to aeg on behalf of the 60000 people who bought GA tickets and ask them not to cave in to a few rich people who are complaining and making threats just because the option does not exist to be able to buy a privileged position at the detriment of those with less money.
I repeat. AEG have realised they made a mistake. They have offered a full refund to those affected as they should do. As an additional good will gesture they have offered the option of upgrading or downgrading. Anyone who is now complaining is therefore only complaining because the option of being able to prevent less well off people getting to the front does nor exist.
I'm not being nasty here. AEG were wrong to put a misleading description up but they have offered a refund. For those who would have bought a different ticket with the knowledge they now have, you can upgrade or downgrade. Or am I missing something?

"...a few rich people..." I am NOT rich.
"...They have offered a full refund to those affected as they should do..."
Far from everyone, just a few have recieved a refund offer.
Most customers in Tier 1/2 don't even know about this mess I suspect.

I asked for a refund and they have emailed today asking what ticket agent I used. Hope they process my refund soon - feel totally ripped off and fed up with the whole thing. I will let you know if i get the full amount back (booking fees etc).

I'm not asking for a refund.
I'm going to go to the gig hoping that my view won't be as badly affected as it looks on the plan. If it is bad, then I shall complain to Office of Fair Trading or whatever, and AEG will almost certainly have to pay me something to compensate me for not providing what they advertised. At least I will have been to the gig, and they won't have been able to sell my ticket to some othersuckercustomer.

I complained to the promoter once when my view was blocked by a post. I got put in the VIP section at the front. You never know your luck.
But why not downgrade to GA and get to the front row? That way your day won't be ruined if you're disappointed with the view.
