    All David Haye tickets have been cancelled and will be refunded automatically minus booking fees. Is it not suspicious the event is cancelled rather than postponed and why would they only offer part refunds? Surely they would be insured for this kind of thing. They've made an absolute packet of this. Anyone have any advice on who to complain to or how to get booking fees back?

    Tweet from Hearn -

    @eddiehearn For those asking about refunds from the DH fight from @eventim_uk - I'm putting pressure on them to refund booking fees as well-bear with me

    Not sure if he'll get anywhere though....

    How much were the booking fees?

    This is a total scandal, bet they've cleared £100,000 on booking fees alone.

    I paid £8.75 booking fee on a £75 ticket. Was pissed off at the time, even more so now. Not a massive amount of money but it's the principle really

    Well that's still alot of money if they had sold around 10,000 tickets already.

    Fact the fight has been cancelled completely and not re-sheduled is a total joke.

    It's the fact it's been cancelled no rescheduled that gets me. I have lost out on about 25 quid. When the event is announce again I will have to pay another 25 quid in booking fees for same seats. That means a £75 seat will of cost me just over a £100. How's that possible and legal? They are a disgrace and shouldn't be allowed to get away with it

    It's a disgrace there keeping the booking fees
     
  10. Do David Haye and Eddie Hearn find it acceptable that boxing fans are fleeced a further £8.75 per ticket non refundable booking fee?

    I will personally not be purchasing any future tickets through this shower, regardless of the fight, after being made aware of this news.

    The usual suspects slagging of matchroom they were not original promotors they can on board to provide undercard if people remember that!

    It's eventim not DH or EH :patsch
     
  13. So you are saying that neither Eddie Hearn or David Haye selected Eventim to sell tickets instead of ticketmaster etc.

    Pigfart to confirm :hi:

    Looks like eventim are going to waiver the booking fee if you re book tickets to see Haye later in the year when its rescheduled. It's on Hayes twitter.
