“We have been contacted by customers who are concerned that they have paid more than they should have for event tickets. We are investigating their concerns, including how ‘dynamic pricing’ is influencing the cost of tickets in Australia,” said James Naughton, Class Actions Partner at Gordon Legal.
“The focus of our investigation relates to whether any laws designed to protect consumers have been breached.”
