Not sure how people are getting codes if the program is cancelled...

What address does the email come from so I can dig it out of my dedicated spam box?

Thanx.

They shut it down

Might be good for White Sox tickets to the ALDS (assuming they make it-big game tonight!). Tickets are going for a lot around here in Chicago.

I started signing up for this, and then read the rest of the thread :facepalm: Really doesn't surprise me that Ticketmaster is behind it.

Just got two lower-level tickets to Arrowhead Stadium (Kansas City), fees, shipping and all for less than $100. Minus the fees, they were below face value to begin with, so not all deals suck. Pretty sure I didn't get the 5%, though, just the $50 off. Oh well, still worked out. Thanks!

This was their reply when I advised of the BBB complaint:

"Due to fraudulent participation in this program via unauthorized use of links and websites, this program was officially terminated in early September, with the knowledge of the participating provider, per contractual obligations. You may ask your official Geico representative to contact us on your behalf."

No. It seems like we're not the only ones, that's for sure.

Terms & Conditions
Expires 12/31/2008. Discount is automatically applied to your online ticket purchase. Offer not valid on sales tax or shipping, and cannot be combined with any other discount or offer. Offer cannot be combined with any other coupon, offer or promotion from TicketsNow.com. Offer subject to change, including termination without notice.Of course it does, as do most offers like this. Sometimes, however, it does not hurt to push the issue to get what you want. Notice that the person at tickets_now told me the offer was cancelled in early Sept., but people reported getting codes as late as last week. There is a false advertising issue when a program like this has been discontinued by the offeror, but they knowingly continue to accept applications/registrations under that program. Who here would have shared their personal info if the $50 discount offer was not on the table?

So a site with 300% markups canceled the promotion early? Hmmm...looks like they'll never get my business and I'm actually now rooting against them. When you do a promotion, try to have a site that doesn't tick off your new customers with 300% markups and coupon codes that never show up.
