Bought tickets for DF's birthday to go to a concert this weekend. They cost over £200.
DM and DF decided to go to London for an extra night before and after the concert, booked train tickets, hotels etc. The gig is Friday. Train leaves early tomorrow morning.
Except the blasted tickets still aren't here. We've spoken to the ticket company. Apparently this is an antifraud measure. There's no way they can be reissued. No way they can get them at the venue. New tickets can't be sent to their hotel. The only way they can get these tickets is to wait at my house all day tomorrow in the hope the postman comes, then get a later (more expensive) train to London.
AIBU to think this is ridiculous? Surely it's not that unusual for people to extend a trip to London by a few days and the company could have sent them out earlier? Or reissued the tickets so mum and dad could get them at the door? It's a seated concert so no risk of us selling on the originals.

To think if you've paid £200 for concert tickets you should actually be able to GET them
