3 interessante Passagen aus einem Artikel des Guardian vom 5. Januar:
1) Die Voraussetzung, dass der Ticketbesteller, dessen Name auf dem Ticket steht, beim Einlass dabei sein muß, wurde anscheinend gelockert. Gut so. Dadurch ersparen die sich und uns ne Menge unnötigen Stress.
Jetzt heißt es nur noch, dass er die Verantwortung für seine Tickets trägt.
Zitat:
The terms and conditions explicitly state that any ticket holder must show photographic identification when asked, and add: "If more than one ticket is issued to a purchaser, those tickets may only be used by the purchaser and a family member, friend or colleague who is known to the purchaser personally and who is intended to accompany the purchaser to a session".
However, when the issue was raised in the House of Lords last year and Locog's chief executive, Paul Deighton, was subsequently asked about it he insisted that it would be fine to pass the tickets on as long as they were not subsequently resold. "The names on the tickets are a function of our determination to handle ticket touts. It's absolutely fine for people to give their tickets to friends and family," he said. "It would not be OK for those friends and family to see those tickets touted. The person named on those tickets retains the responsibility for ensuring those tickets are not part of any illegal activity."
Irgendwo im Thread hat einer mal geschrieben, dass DERTOUR ihm schriftlich bestätigt hätte, dass die Namen nicht auf den Tickets stehen würden. Er wollte Tickets umschreiben lassen und die Leute von DERTOUR hatten das aus dem Grund abgelehnt.
