Rejected petition: Stop companies from adding excessive online booking fees.

Rejected on

Ban companies from adding on a booking fee when purchasing online.

This makes the advertised price incorrect as by the time you reach check out there has been additional extras added that are unavoidable. It makes events less accessible, erodes trust between the consumers and the companies. It's exploitative. Prices advertised should be inclusive of any fixed fees. We should have fair and transparent ticket purchasing practices.
