Koskie Minsky Commences Class Action Against Ticketmaster For Failure to Refund

TORONTO, May 5, 2020 /CNW/ - Koskie Minsky has commenced a class proceeding against Ticketmaster for refusing and delaying refunds to people who bought tickets for events that have been, or will be, postponed, rescheduled or canceled as a result of COVID-19.

The class action is brought on behalf of all Canadian residents who purchased one or more tickets from Ticketmaster for an event taking place after March 13, 2020 that has been postponed, rescheduled or canceled, or is postponed, rescheduled or canceled prior to certification of the class action.  

It is alleged that customers are entitled to prompt refunds, in the original form of payment, under the terms of their contracts with the defendants or under consumer protection laws.  

Kirk Baert, a partner at Koskie Minsky, stated "The defendants are refusing to refund Class Members' money on any reasonable timescale – or at all – protecting their corporate bottom line at the expense of their customers. Canadians need this money right now."
