Ticketmaster is out around $400 million thanks to a class-action settlement over exorbitant ticket fees, but their loss might mean a big win for you.
According to the settlement, if you bought tickets through the service between Oct. 21, 1999, and Feb. 27, 2013, you might be entitled to ticket codes allowing you to claim two free general admission tickets. Ticketmaster, which is owned by Live Nation, reportedly began alerting members via email over the weekend that they were able to claim their ticket codes.
If you're trying to figure out how to claim the free tickets, check out the guidelines here or follow our tips below:
1. Log into your Ticketmaster account here. Click on the "Active Vouchers" tab to find out if you have ticket codes, which look like this:
2. Find a concert or event you want to attend.
3. Go through the usual steps to buy tickets, then add in your code for a discount or free ticket.
Of course, there are a few caveats to the codes and events you can attend. According to Live Nation, you can only redeem the tickets for a concert at a Live Nation venue and only on a first-come, first-served basis.
