Taylor Swift Concert Ticket Disaster Spurs Tennessee AG Probe of Ticketmaster

Taylor Swift fans are outraged after waiting hours and paying out huge cash simply for a chance at getting tickets — and they have actually griped enough to trigger a brand-new antitrust examination into Ticketmaster.

Ever given that Tuesday, Swifties have actually been sounding off about the dreadful presale for Taylor’s upcoming trip, however Tennessee’s attorney general of the United States believes this may exceed whining Gen Zers … it might be a criminal offense.

TN AG Jonathan Skrmetti states antitrust infractions “could be an issue” for Ticketmaster. He’s worried the business does not have competitors … and with that, consumers are entrusted to sky-high rates and a bad experience getting tix.

Skrmetti concerns Ticketmaster’s absence of preparation — he states offered the business’s size, it ought to’ve been prepared for the “unprecedented demand” from Taylor’s legion of fans. The female commanded the Billboard Hot 100’s whole leading 10, after all!!!

As we reported … Ticketmaster remained in disarray as fans tried to get their hands on a ticket to “The Eras Tour.” Potential purchasers were left in limbo after the site crashed … and honestly, Ticketmaster’s description of why things failed didn’t make it any much better.

Skrmetti’s issue is Ticketmaster does not fret about pissing off fans — of Taylor or any other artist — due to the fact that if they wish to see a concert, there’s generally no preventing Ticketmaster.

The A.G.’s workplace has actually gotten a number of problems from consumers who experienced an extreme absence of consumer assistance, while others stated Ticketmaster informed them to wait 5 days for an action.
