Bamboozle Festival, which was slated to be held this weekend (May 5-7), has\u00a0been cancelled just days out after the Atlantic City authorities declined to issue a final permit for the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now, fans are struggling to retrieve their ticket refunds for the festival, which was set to be its first edition for more than a decade.<\/p>\n
In a statement, organisers said: \u201cAfter extensive discussions, we have made the heartbreaking decision to cancel Bamboozle 2023. An incredible amount of time, dedication, passion and hard work was invested into making this comeback a success. We appreciate everyone who supported this festival. Refunds should be requested at point of purchase.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, fans have taken to Twitter to argue that it has been difficult to request refunds at the point of purchase, or that they were being told to contact their bank should a refund never arrive.<\/p>\n
One user posted a screenshot on an email about Bamboozle Festival refunds, which read<\/a>: \u201cThe refund process began Monday, May 1, 2023 and could take up to 90 days till funds are returned. Ticket purchasers, like you, can and must seek a refund from the point of purchase. In the event this does not result in a refund from any of our ticketing platforms, you can get a full recovery by contacting your bank or credit card company.\u201d<\/p>\n The user commented<\/a>: \u201cThe scam of Bamboozle continues. BAM Ticketing won\u2019t refund fans as the point of purchase and Bamboozle is shirking responsibility, telling fans to contact their banks.\u201d<\/p>\n
