Fans Frustrated Over Cricket World Cup Delays

Fans who purchased tickets to the Cricket World Cup were upset when they didn’t receive their tickets as early as promised, but the organizers called the delay “absolutely normal.”

Ticketholders were originally told that they’d receive their tickets in six weeks, and when the tickets didn’t turn up, they started to worry. One fan, Twitter user Ryan Biggs, said that he bought tickets for England’s game against South Africa on Thursday, but it had not been sent yet.

“The organisers haven’t made a statement as to what’s happening and it’s virtually impossible to get through to Ticketmaster to find out,” he wrote. “It’s a disgrace.”

Others took to social media to discuss their frustration, with some complaining that they had spent money on delivery. One fan even said that he called Ticketmaster 74 times to rectify the situation, but his calls were never met with an explanation.
