The Cure's Robert Smith slams Ticketmaster's 'unduly high' fees.
Ticketmaster will provide partial refunds to buyers of The Cure's US tour tickets following complaints of high ticketing fees. The refunds come after the band's frontman, Robert Smith, expressed his disgust at the fees and called dynamic pricing a "scam." The Cure had taken measures to ensure fans paid face-value for tickets, including making them non-transferable to prevent scalpers from hiking prices on the secondary market. Ticketmaster will offer a $10 refund to those who purchased tickets from the lowest price range and a $5 refund to all other verified fan accounts for all Cure shows at all venues.
