Subject: Urgent: Refund Request for Failed Booking on 2nd Dec 21:15

Dear BookMyShows Support,

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue I encountered during my recent attempt to book tickets through your platform.

On 2nd December at 21:15, I used the PhonePe app to make a payment of ₹559 for tickets. Despite the deduction from my account, I was unable to obtain the tickets due to technical issues with your app. I made several attempts to resolve the matter, but the app was consistently unresponsive.

Frustratingly, when I inquired with the ticket keeper at the venue, I was informed that no online bookings, including mine, were recorded, as all tickets had allegedly been sold out. This left me in a difficult situation, and I had to purchase tickets physically for the next available show.

I kindly request your prompt assistance in processing a refund for the amount of ₹559, as the booking was unsuccessful, and I had to incur additional expenses to attend the show physically. I trust that you will look into this matter urgently and provide a resolution at the earliest convenience.

For your reference, the transaction details are as follows:

Date: 2nd December 2023
Time: 21:15
Payment Method: PhonePe
Amount: ₹559
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution.

Best regards,
[Sarang. Shinde]

          Address: Indiranagar

          Hi,

          I had booked a comedy show ticket which was confirmed for 10th dec, 8pm at yuck comedy club indiranagar. I reached the venue and waited for 10mins and venue was closed.
          I asked a person on ground floor and was told that the show was cancelled since only 2 tickets were booked (mine).
          I wasn't informed about the cancellation until I reached and investigated myself. Terribly embarrassed in front of my friend for planning such a ## thing for a weekend, we struggled to find availability for other events to now look for, ended up ruining a good weekend.

          The lack of professionalism is abysmal. No decency to even notify that event is cancelled atleast an hour before. Had to ask around in order to find out. And the audacity that I have to provide review for this event on book my show ( showed as completed) is preposterous.

          I demand to be compensated for the event refund, the time and energy my friend and i put in reaching this event and dealing with this, my experience and ruin of my weekend and our cab fares plus the 5 days i have spent with CUSTOMER CARE trying to get a response.

            On 27 May 2023 I had booked movie tickets on BookMyShow worth Rs. 898 with Transaction ID T2305271410551012623296 and UTR[protected]. The amount was deducted from my account but the booking was cancelled. I had initiated a refund, and the app shows that the amount has been refunded, but I have not received the amount till date.
            I have reported the transaction multiple times, but to no avail.

              Extra Cost in form of donation by BookMyShow

              Address: BookMyShow

              I have booked tickets in BookMyShow on 10/29/2023 for the movie shown in tha attached screenshot. Everything looks fine untill I noticed that they have an extra Rs 4/- added as donation for 4 tickets,

              The problem I found is that that 4rs is not a matter to keep it as a donation after paying extra amount in form of GST etc.. and who knows that they are really donating or using for good all the amount they are collecting from...

                I have booked a ticker through bookmyshow in PVR screen in Kochi. This was done on 28th October for 29th October 7.05 PM show. I had booked the ticket for 4 people. It clearly stated that i can cancel upto 20 minutes prior to the show. Just to keep the back up i shared the booking code with my wife as well. Apparently this was a split and it did not give me any warning that if i do this, i will not be able to cancel the ticket. Now i am told that i cannot cancel as i have split the ticket. how do i get this resolved and get my refund ?

                        We were told Neymar will be playing for the match; he is now not going to play. Have booked the ticket on 17th October, 2023 and want to cancel the same.

                        Book My show people for cancellation just dont come on the contact number given. I have been holding the call since the last 45 minutes and I was caller number 4 and still no one has come on the call to attend the query.

                        I have been told they are busy - 4 th person in the queue and they cannot attend in 45 minutes.

                          I have booked 2 tickets for the movie LEO at INOX LUXE CINEMAS CHENNAI for the date of 20.10.2023. I have paid the amount of Rs. 461.80 within the given time but I HAVE NOT received either the confirmation mail or the tickets from the bookmyshow. This is so disappointing and I need a full refund of my money. Kindly resolve it as soon as possible.

                              I had booked 2 tickets for a show in Delhi later they changed the timings and did not send any communication, and it was not possible for us to attend the show at the changed timings, so I contacted their customer care service but they were not helping with anything at all either they should have refunded or shared some other resolution, None of it was given. When booking were happening it was showing 3:30 pm timings on 9th October and later they changed it to evening time and did not informed about this so I contacted them to check on this to communicate it will not be possible for us to attend at the evening time, they had no resolution instead were telling me they can't refund as it is against their policy. How is a customers fault if organisers changed their timings.

                                    Address: Moviemax Wondermall, Ghodbunder Road, Kapur Bawadi Naka opposite Bank Of Baroda Chitalsar, Manpada, Thane West, Thane, Maharashtra 400601

                                    I have booked tickets from Book my show. Yesterday I went to moviemax theater in wondermall with my husband and brother to watch Jawan movie. After the movie ended, we followed the rest of the people towards the door which was near. But we were stopped by a man working there whose name is Ismail Ibrahim Khan. I told them to stop those ahead o[censored]s as well.
                                    Before that many people went ahead o[censored]s and they were not stopped. He told us I'm telling you right? Then I asked him why are you telling us that if there is such a problem, you should have put one more person near the door and have the same rule for everyone.
                                    But Ismail Ibrahim Khan was very rude and started arguing with us.
                                    We are expecting better Crew member who can guide people in calmly and polite way.
