LIMERICK TD Maurice Quinlivan has reacted to FIFA’s move to take legal action against Viagogo for unauthorised resale of tickets, showing the urgent need for legislation in this area in Ireland. “FIFA lodged a criminal complaint in Switzerland against the ticket website Viagogo as part of a crackdown on unauthorised World Cup ticket sales. FIFA have said they received numerous complaints over the past few months over the opaque and deceptive business conduct of Viagogo, and so they took action. This is a huge issue in Ireland, with consumers constantly expressing frustration at the total absence of regulation, and the phenomenon of tickets selling out in minutes, only to reappear within minutes on secondary selling sites for hugely inflated prices.”
