“[They said] ‘someone else has it, we don’t know who, we can’t check or track who has your ticket’,” the 21-year-old said. “All they could do was issue me a refund, I have essentially had my ticket stolen from me.”

After failing to get the situation sorted and her ticket reinstated by Ticketek’s customer service, Rebecca went online to try to get answers on Sunday. This is about when the company was finally able to ensure she still had a ticket, despite apparently being told otherwise. “We have now reached out to Rebecca to confirm,” the spokesperson said.

In a statement to Yahoo on Monday, Ticketek said the situation had been rectified and other customers needn’t worry about any such glitches in their online marketplace.
