Husband M went online to buy me a couple of tickets to the Hall and Oates and Train concert coming to Toronto in June. A girlfriend has agreed to accompany me. We were happy with the tickets he purchased. However, shortly afterwards we received a second email to acknowledge our purchase of ticket insurance in the amount of an extra $17. M realized he must have clicked that button in error. He said you have a certain amount of time to complete your purchase and he was skipping through all the options in a bit of a hurry. Fortunately, he was able to call the insurance company and quickly cancel the transaction. No doubt ticket insurance is important these days, but the 2 tickets were not a horrendous amount of money. Hopefully we will be ok.
I am still not comfortable with some online purchases for fear I might miss something, but it is unavoidable these days.

I've never heard of ticket insurance before! Have fun at the concert. Hugs, Valerie
me either
I have never heard of it either,, glad the error was corrected,, it is a bit tricky buying online, I think we have become so accustom to it now we have been lulled into a false sense of security, one bump reminds us of the problems if we aren't extra careful, have a great time at the concert!
Awesome...Hall and Oats. Love it. I bet all will be okay. Ticket insurance although I have never heard of it seems to be another way of getting money out of you. It is really bad how places just seem to want to squeeze more out of you. Enjoy your concert.
It took me a very long time to trust online purchases. I still get nervous when I'm at a new place. I guess with all the scams out there the insurance companies have found YET another way to get money from people! I loved Hall and Oates!
Sounds like fun! I've never heard of insurance for tickets. You learn something new every day.
I'd never heard of insurance for concert tickets. I hope you have a great time at the concert!
Hopefully your concert would go without a hitch and you wouldn't need insurance.
I always book and buy airline tickets and hotels on Expedia.com and recently I clicked a link from Google for cheaper flights to eDreams.com.
I thought it would be same as expedia as in what you see would be what you get but no. My flights came to 59 euros and I was charged 89 euros. When I queried, I was told that was CC processing fee and I had ticked the option of standard service.
What? I thought booking through was the standard service. I didn't need to tick or untick that. And where was the message telling the customer about the processing fee?
Guess what? Standard fee was the option to cancel. But when I tried to cancel, I was told it was not cancellable and nonrefundable.
Nas how awful.
We don't but my eldest son does his all booking and shopping mostly on line and thank God till now there were no problems
hope you enjoy your train concert with your friend dear Christine!
Just gotta go slow, read, and be up on scams.
It's not hard, just takes getting used to.
You got this. Just takes time.
