      Status:
      Resolved
      Date of the transaction: 03/16/2022 Total Paid: $234.00 Business committed to provide me: A show White Christmas Nature of the dispute: Requesting a refund for tickets purchased for show unable to provide Business tried to resolve the problem by extending the reservation's value. My family and I have been patrons of LaComedia Dinner Theater for more than 40 years. Celebrating countless milestones with a “Taste of Broadway”. Last year on 3/16/22 I purchased tickets to the show White Christmas on Sunday, December 18, 2022. I’ve always purchased our show tickets as early as possible to reserve the best possible seats and table. With that being said, the future is uncertain and on December 10th, 2022, I was admitted to the hospital for spinal tumor and was diagnosed with stage IV renal cell carcinoma with bone metastasis and I continue to battle this grave diagnosis devastatingly bedridden. As a result of this I had my oldest daughter call 24-hours prior to the show to we were scheduled to see to cancel and explain our family situation and request a refund. The Box Office was very understanding and advised her to email **********************, and sent an email on December 17, 2022. My daughter received an email back from Mr. ****** expressing his solace and reiteration of their cancellation policy, extending the reservation’s value through February 12, 2023, but when someone has cancer, everyone in the family takes on new roles and responsibilities. As a family, we would have taken advantage of your generous reschedule policy but we are unable to reschedule with these life changes and circumstances and I am requesting a refund. I am not providing the details of my diagnosis for your sympathy, but I am filing this compliant because many other entertainment venues hosting live event did show compassion and accommodated a refund for the total, I paid for their shows I had planned to attend at **** ***** ***** ******* ******** ***** ******** *** **** **** ***********

      We had 4 Adults tickets and 2 children tickets for Friday Matinee December 23. There was a snow storm and Clinton County went into a Level 2. The owner Joe will not honor our tickets for a future event due to we didn't give a 24 hour notice. How were we to know we would go into a Level 2. He said the weather warn us a storm was coming and we should have cancel sooner. He stole our money of $386. We are Seniors and we were going to take our young Grandchildren. He did not care about our lives or our young Grandchildren lives! He is a poor business owner and an evil person. There was another couple who was trying to get to LaComedia on Interstate 75 and they got stuck in the snow. He also stole their money of $240. He making a killing. How many more money did he steal! Please do not support this business as he will not care if anything happens to anyone else. He even took a Dead man's money. There was a family made reservations and Grandpa died. He refused to give them a refund. He is an Evil man

      Our cancellation policy is that if you call at least 24-hours prior to the show you are scheduled to see, you may reschedule for another date within 30 days of the original reservation. All of our tickets are non-refundable and changes cannot be made the day of the show, or after the performance. We make these policies very clear to all of our customers when a reservation is placed so there are no misunderstandings. We also include the policies on every email confirmation. The performance on Dec. 23 that this individual purchased a reservation for went on as scheduled. Between our two performances Friday, Dec. 23, over 700 people were in attendance. Many others took advantage of our generous rescheduling policy by calling us prior to that day. Allowing our customers to reschedule is more than fair, as most entertainment venues hosting live events are not nearly as accommodating. Weather forecasters began predicting the winter storm days in advance, providing our customers with more than enough information to make the best decision for themselves regarding their reservations. While many of our customers did call us to reschedule, this particular individual did not, taking their chances that they would be able to attend. Attendance for each performance varies greatly and the amount of food prepared and staff scheduled depends solely on the number of reservations for each specific performance. This is why we require that cancellations be made at least 24-hours in advance so we can plan accordingly. We do not require reservations. Guests are welcome to arrive the day of the show and purchase tickets. When reservations are placed, the customer has purchased those tickets for that performance and those tickets are theirs to do with what they choose. We are just like other live entertainment venues that hosts live events such as concerts or sporting events. If you purchase tickets to these types of events and do not attend, you do not get refunds or any type of rain check. We provide our customers with the generous option of rescheduling before the day of the show, and this individual’s party chose not to. Hundreds of people did reschedule their reservations, and hundreds more were here in attendance that day. When our customers purchase reservations, they have agreed to our policies as they were explained to them.
