    Well that would be the honest approach, but unlike with not showing VAT where the issue is cut and dried the club may try and claim that it IS possible to only pay £25 using the two examples you've quoted previously. God knows what criteria the ASA would use then. However their motto is "Legal...

    Doesn't matter if it's a mistake or not. You can find many examples of firms falling foul of the ASA because they haven't included the VAT in some of their adverts - The Hilton and Holiday Inn hotel chains being two. In all cases afaik they all changed their adverts when the mistake (lets be...

    "Game set and match to Bold Seagull!" Yeah. Currently it's a new thing and yes the booking fees are shown on the same page as the ticket prices. I shall be checking my emails though, and the first time they write to me and say "Only £25 to see Brighton play Yeovil!" and forget to mention the...

    It's incredible the number of people who can't see it or worse: think it's ok. If it really WAS a booking fee, a sum paid to a third-party to handle the transaction, I could almost accept it. But it isn't, it is simply an underhand way to increase the price. And like VAT it is unavoidable as you...

    Surely you can't categorise them in advance? If we're in with a shout of automatic promotion then regardless of who we're playing the last few games are going to be Triple A Plus. If we're mid table they'll be E minus in terms of desirability.
