Title: Paid for FC13 tickets... never got them!
Post by: Rocoro T. Pup on January 10, 2013, 06:57:35 PM
Okay, so this isn't really much of a rant, just a frustration. I still had quite a headache dealing with this...

In December I bought tickets online to Further Confusion in San Jose. Cool right? I couldn't wait to go! Problem is I bought my tickets almost a month ago. Now I guess it probably takes a while for the staff to sort through the payment and mail each ticket to what I can assume is thousands of addresses. But this long?

I emailed the FC staff several times to no avail. I have all the digital receipts with me, but FC has a strict no refund policy. Dang. Here's all the proof I need. (http://imgur.com/a/bENIj)

Starting to get worried, fellas. If I don't get my tickets in time for the con, or at all, what's next?

I can't say this for sure of course, but I would think that if you showed up with printed copies of those receipts and explained the situation, they'd have to let you in.

There has never been a physical copy of anything to be mailed, they do it all at the convention center, just give your name and provide ID and probably the card you used for payment.

Really! Thought the payment form said that I would be mailed the tickets. Probably just meant the billing address.

Where's my rock to hide under?

Well that's good then, if that's the case. :) It would probably be a good idea to bring a copy of your receipt just in case of any mishaps anyway though.

When I went to Califur and Fanime, they looked at the receipt like it was alien to them. Meaning, nobody probably remembers to bring them... but I did anyways for fear of Line Con: Reawakening. I can only assume Further Confusion will be overpopulated since I have never been, but numbers go up yearly.

I'll be sure to bring copies of the proof of purchase just in case. Thanks for the advice!

I agree, you're better off safe than sorry. Just make sure nothing gets lost or stolen.
