    My husband and I bought tickets to a ******* concert at ***** Beach, ** through Flat Rate that was postponed due to the ******19 pandemic. After multiple postponements, the concert was officially canceled. We then attempted to request a refund from Flat Rate as promoted by the venue and were met with radio silence from Flat Rate. Weve followed up multiples times via multiple avenues and Flat Rate still has our $525 without explanation or response.

    Business Response /* (1000, 8, 2022/09/13) */ Hello, We refunded the customer back in august 29th. She provided two order numbers, one which is not a sale from our company ( XXXXXXXX ). We can't help her in that case. There is proof of the refund attached to this email for order ( XXXXXXXX ) which was a sale from our company. Please advise the customer to close the case and contact the company she bought the tickets from. Thank you.

    So with the pictures included I sent to you, my daughter and I purchased two tickets to a TLC concert for October I believe the 10th of last year to be at the Concord Pavilion. It was canceled. I waited 90 days. Then contacted flat rate tickets Inc and I got nothing but a voicemail or voicemail mailbox is full. I still have not gotten my refund for the canceled event like the terms said would happen and my bank will not issue me a refund because I waited too long. Once again flat rate tickets Inc is not available on the phone or online that I can see. I am looking for my refund .

    We bought tickets to an event that was cancelled on December 21, 2021. After the event was canceled, I received an email that I would see a refund within 90 days. Still have not received the refund and the number they provided just goes to voicemail (which is full, so you can't leave one). I have emailed customer service with no response. This makes me SO mad that they will not respond since the money should be refunded!!! Help!

    Consumer Response /* (2000, 14, 2022/04/22) */ (The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.) It took filing a complaint for them to respond at all. But yes, I finally got my refund!
