Rejected petition To ban or severely restrict viagogo and sites of its nature

Viagogo exploit us for our money. Many true music fans are left confused and disheartened when tickets to their favourite artist are sold out in mere seconds. This must stop. Many are left in tears and the only way to obtain a ticket is now to pay x6 of the price. It's disgusting. We must act now

More details

For example a Billie Eilish concert in Birmingham sold tickets for £17.05. All tickets were sold out in 10 seconds. To many people's discovery, viagogo had bought most of them if not all of them and were selling them for £100. This is disgraceful.
