UCLA Statement - Michael JacksonThe legendary King of Pop, Michael Jackson, passed away on Thursday 25 June 2009 at 14:26. It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is unknown until results of the autopsy are known.His personal physician, who was with him at the time, attempted to resuscitate Jackson, as did paramedics who transported him to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. Upon arriving at the hospital at approximately 13:14, a team of doctors, including emergency physicians and cardiologists, attempted to resuscitate him for a period of more than one hour but were unsuccessful.Jackson's family requests that the media respect their privacy during this tragic period of time.-UCLA-More information about refunds will follow later today.

Init lol, I was on hype, waking up early and all sorts, being smug when I got my 4
:lol:Snap.Tbh it was only at the point where I found out that he was doing concerts in London that I had to pull out all his albums from storage.Found out my mum went to see him in '89! Think I heard her say she took my brother.

Them shows would have been the greatest spectacles ever. But they do say: "If it sound too good to be true, it usually is".Can you imagine the stage production, choreography, use of pyrotechnics and fireworks, storyline, cameos and last but not least the greatest entertainer to ever do it performing hit, after hit, after hit for at least 2 hours. Guess thats all we can do; imagine

Michael Jackson ticket refundsBy Nick Sommerlad on June 26, 2009 2:49 PM in Investigations newsWith 750,000 tickets sold for Michael Jackson's sell-out 50 dates at the O2, the refund bill could top £50 million.Unfortunately, not everyone will get their money back.Fans will have to contact whoever sold them the tickets. I've been looking through the sites that have sold Jackson tickets and assessing the chances of getting a refund.I will be updating this post. Please let us know how your refunds progress. If you've ordered from an agent I haven't mentioned, send us a comment and we'll get digging.TicketmasterThey were the primary ticket agents and, according to the terms and conditions on their website, all fans will get a full refund. But the current statement on their website simply says: Ticketmaster is aware of the news relating to Michael Jackson. We have no official information at this stage. As soon as we have any information we will immediately contact all customers who have booked tickets through Ticketmaster.ViagogoCustomers of the official secondary ticket seller - Viagogo - will also get a refund. Boss Eric Baker has said today: All Michael Jackson tickets purchased through Viagogo will be refunded directly to fans. No forms, no fuss, just refunded. We will be in touch with everyone in due course.Seatwave"Fan-to-fan" reseller Seatwave has also been quick to reassure customers that they will get their money back. Boss Joe Cohen said today: All customers who purchased tickets for [Jackson's] O2 shows from Seatwave are covered by our TicketCover guarantee and will get a full refund. Full information on how to do this is on our website. We advise customers to use the website rather than our phone lines to obtain this information.eBayAuction website eBay is advising people who have bought tickets on the site to contact the sellers to ask for a refund. If they bought using Paypal, they can get their money back if the purchase was made during the last 45 days.It is "reviewing the options" of people who bought tickets before May 13th. Ebay also said it was working to remove live auctions of Jackson tickets from its site, although hundreds remained on the site during Friday morning. "Any existing bids will be cancelled," a spokeswoman said.UKticketfactory.comThis tout company will only refund the "face value" of a ticket - in this case £50 to £75 - regardless of the price paid. It's spelt out in the terms and conditions: If an event is cancelled and not rescheduled we will be liable for a face value refund of the ticket only. You will need to request a face-value refund via email. With any refund issued, we will only ever credit the original card used to pay with. No cheques/Paypal payments etc will be issued.Bookmetickets.comWe've been bombarded with complaints about this site since we wrote about it last year. Customers who bought Michael Jackson tickets are only due a refund of the £50 to £75 face value regardless of what they paid. It's in their terms and conditions: If an event is cancelled completely for reasons beyond our control then BookMeTickets.com is only liable for the Face Value of the tickets therefore only the Face Value will be refunded. If an event is postponed or rescheduled then the same tickets will be valid for the new date and no refunds will be applied at all. Please allow up to 28 working days before the money is credited back to your account. Please note that we can only reverse the transaction back to the same card which was used at the time of booking.Londonticketsexpress.comThis is another site we've previously warned about. Customers with Jackson tickets are only eligable to claim a refund for the face value - or £50 to £75 - as made clear on the website: If an event is cancelled completely for reasons beyond our control then LondonTicketsExpress.com is only liable for the Face Value of the tickets therefore only the Face Value will be refunded. If an event is postponed or rescheduled then the same tickets will be valid for the new date and no refunds will be applied at all. In a ground breaking move amongst standard practices of Independent Ticket Agencies, LondonTicketsExpress.com has also decided to offer its customers the option of a credit voucher of the full amount paid which can be used towards any other event at all with no expiry date.Double8tickets.comOne of the UK's biggest touts and a member of the industry body ASTA - or the Association of Secondary Ticket Agents. But, according to their terms and conditions, customers will only get a refund of the face value of the tickets if an event is cancelled: If an event is cancelled by the artist or promoter, we will refund the face value of the ticket only. If an event is rescheduled by the artist or promoter and you cannot attend we will refund the face value of the tickets only. We do not have any control over these events. We will not be liable for costs of travel fares, hotels, or any other expenses that may be incurred if a concert is cancelled/rescheduled. It is your responsibility to ensure the concert is going ahead before travelling. We will do our best to inform you if the date has been changed but we do not accept liability if we are unable to contact you. We strongly advise that you check before making arrangements.acetickets.co.ukAs we warned back in March, this was one of the sites selling Jackson tickets they couldn't possibly have. The tickets were priced between £295 and £1,5000 but were subsequently withdrawn from sale. The site has since disappeared.theonlineticketexchange.comAnother one we caught selling tickets it didn't have back in March, after the dates were announced but before the tickets went on sale. Along with sister site theonlineticketshop.com, it sold Jackson tickets starting from £295, all the way up to £1,575 for "VIP seats". There's no refund policy on the website, which describes the site as a unique way of "connecting buyers and sellers" and claims to guarantee all tickets by "ensuring that tickets are in the buyer's possession at the time they are listed". We tried to call the company to find out what will happen to customers who bought Jackson tickets but no-one was answering this afternoon. The firm also sold tickets as michaeljacksontickets.co.uk, though this website has since disappeared.worldticketshop.comThis Dutch site were selling Jackson tickets for £535 to £715 each before they even went on general sale. According to the website, customers will get a 100% refund of the purchase price is an event is cancelled. You should email [email protected] within five days of the cancellation being formally announced and return the original tickets (if you have them) by registered post.budgetticket.nlThis is another Dutch website that we found selling Jackson tickets before they were even available. But, according to the terms and conditions on the website, customers will get a full refund if they apply in time: In the event of cancellation of an event, Budgetticket will offer substitute tickets on the basis of availability or refund the full amount of the order including shipment costs, provided the buyer contacts Budgetticket within five (5) days after the announcement of the cancellation of the event.
