Global Tcket market
Fraud

In their T&C they do say sellers will be paid witih 5 days after teh event to avoid fake tickets being delivered, having said that I bought some tickets for the champions league final, sent a funds transfer since two weeks ago and no tickets yet three days before the game. I have caught people telling me lies, that the seller still hast the tickets, and then that they have the tickets, and they have swapped between these versions a few times. Today they are just hanging the phone on me. Either they are highly uncompetent or a blatant scam --at the moment I'm inclined for latter, either way I will never ever use them again and I am just about to involve the police. AVOID!!

I am a seller, and i have sold me ticket and sent it!!! Man 2 you are correct that the T&C NOW say 5 days, but the one i signed up to (and what they told me over the phone) was that i would get paid 2-3 days after i send the tickets.

please every one stay well clear what ever they tell you!!!

P.s. i have attached what the T&C said when i signed up

regards

Did you send the tickets to that address?

A bunch of african men live there, definitely don't look like someone who would pay a few thousand for the tickets. Very suspicious.

Advise to others, don't send your tickets!!

And cancel your credit card, it's a scam!!

Drove down to London on Monday all the way from Manchester. Thought I go to check it out, was thinking it may be an affluent area, more of a run down.

Any idea how to get the tickets back

We were sent a email to send out tickets not trusting global ticket market I went down to deliver tickets to a address down south and the person denied any knowledge of the fact that she paid for tickets. The t&c are something they try and hold against you and they will try and use this to make you believe what they are doing is above board.

Cut a long story short they are stil insisting I send the tickets but I am not trusting this shabby excuse of a website I rather hav the extra leg room. Don't trust this company.

We had the same experience, spoke to them and they told us to put 2 tickets for £2, 600 each and said they'd go within 2 hours. Exactly what happened. Address was Portland too. My partner was very suspicious about it as there were cheaper tickets with half info ie TBC on the site. So google street viewed and rang to say the address does not look legit. Was told it was a contract I'd entered they have the money - send the tickets. My Partner rang pretending to be a buyer and aske why site only appeared on UK searches after March and was told it was due to demand of the Champions League Tickets, she asked how they know tickets are real - do they personally inspect them as some descriptions are clearly dodgy. She was told yes and asked if she wanted to buy, she was told to pay £800 on credit card and take £4000 cash to Portland Street to meet seller. She refused saying it was far too dodgy - Guy got very rude to her so she hung up. We changed our mind about sending tickets as they clearly stated only opened up for Champions League Tickets. Also I was told payment would be immediate to me but after the suposed sale was told 5 working days after event. Something does not ring true. I cancelled credit card, changed all my personal details on the site and changed email passwords, rang and told them I am not sending tickets, they become abusive and send to send the tickets or Legal will get me and they will tell the FA I have tried to sell tickets. They said they have never lost out and will get me. Basically they hide behind they are Spanish Co and take genuine tickets off sellers - fake tickets remain on the site to entice other sellers, they then flog on the tickets and also keep your money and there is nothing you can do as it is supposed illegal to sell in UK. They will be long gone by time Champions League final whistle is blown with loads of cash. Website domain was only registered end Feb - you have been warned.

Same situation with me. I am a lawyer myself and I shall be taking legal action and getting police involvement should I not receive the tickets by tomorrow! Mugings, did you receive the tickets eventually from them?

I notice that there is no registered UK office. The head office is in Spain and after contacting them, it was found that this company does not exist. There is no records of such office in the compnay house, and after asking the registered UK address after 20 mins, I was still not given the address.

Does anyone have an address for them in UK? I spoke to a Peter Ballard, does this perosn even exist?

angry 123 i was trying to sell tickets not recieve them. i would not part with my money or my tickets until i know that what they were saying was true. I have an address and contact name of a women who when i approached with my girlfriend was acting all suspicious as she was not expecting me to turn up. Afeter calling Global they said they would call her and she would have the tickets off me and as soon as she confirms she has the tickets they will transfer the money. I did come accross quite intimerdating as i could tell by her body language she was lying through her teeth. She was in on the act and the area she lived in was run down and was not like she had money to spend. From a legal prespective i do not feel we can do anything however i may be wrong?

has anyone who bought tickets from them received the tickets?

I have kept ringing to get names off the people who I spoke to in Global Ticket Market. I have got three names Mr Peter Ballard, Mr James Lawrence and Mr James O B'rien. Does anyone have any recollection speaking to any of them?

All the addresses in their webpage is fake and the Dublin office defintely confirmed that they are NOT legally registered.

The police will not get involved until the whistle has blown for kick off and global ticket will not refund the money. I can't take legal action myself if I do not have a CLEAR IDENTITY AND ADDRESS. BUT I WELCOME EVERYONE TO FIND OUT WHERE THEY ARE BASED AS THE POLICE WILL NEED ALL THIS INFORMATION. PHOTOS OF THE PEOPLE WOULD HELP, USE THE CAMERA ON YOUR PHONES.
