Review of Shy FX / Mungos Hi Fi
Really enjoyed- however clear lack of planning and we were told by a bouncer that it had been oversold by 400 people. Pretty bad going that those with tickets were being turned away and refused entrance despite having purchased a ticket.

Review of Shy FX / Mungos Hi Fi
Over 300 of us were refused entry because you over sold the event, absolutely shocking. We were left outside in the cold for 2.5 hours with no information then at 2am told you had reached capacity and nobody could get in - we were all turned away at 2am. Absolute joke. Will need a full refund.

To whom this may concern,
I purchased a ticket for myself and my friend (x2 tickets) on the 6th January for Shy Fx at Invisible Wind Factory tonight( Sat 9th Feb). We paid £13.70 for a taxi to IWF to stand in a queue for two hours. When we reached fairly near the front the security then told us that the venue was full to capacity and we would not be able to enter. I have photographic evidence of the queue behind and in front along with screen shots of the time we were there. Myself and my friend have traveled to see Shy Fx in Liverpool, so not only have we lost money on our tickets and transport in terms of taxis, we have also wasted money on travel to Liverpool for this night. We then paid another £12.47 for a taxi back to our hotel after the security man told us there was ‘0% chance we would be admitted entry until the main act was over’.
I am furious and upset with the poor organisation and lack of planning by the promoters for this event. There was absolutely no communication by the promoters as to a resolution to this matter this evening leaving us waiting around to finally be told to leave. I would like AT LEAST the tickets refunded in full and I also think that compensation should be provided for the inconvenience and the consequent loss of money from travel etc as mentioned before.
Understandably this is the fault of the promoters and not Skiddle itself, so I would appreciate this email being sent to who ever can deal with this problem best. I suggest not working with these people/venue again as many people have been left angry and frustrated in the same situation as ourselves tonight.
I look forward to your response on this matter.
Regards,
Kate Taylor

We bought our tickets in November. On the night we then queued for one hour and got metres from the entrance before the queue stopped moving. After 25 minutes more waiting without being told anything, ourselves and maybe one hundred+ people were left in the dark (pardon the pun) and not allowed to enter.

Pay no attention to spam bots and fake five star reviewers here. It was a joke of a night.
Waited for ages in line all night to be turned away, despite having got tickets back in December. the event was oversold by over 400 people. Absolute shambles. I work in promoting different events over Liverpool and not seen the scenes like it. Clearly its an attempt from Worried About Henry to get an extra bitta cash instead of just putting on a good event.
It was so packed on the inside they'd to open the smoking area to let people in the other door which caused confusion with people since they thought people were being let in.
Want a refund and compo for travel just to stand outside for ages in the cold.
Shambles of a night.

Shambles of an event, didn't even get in to the venue, we were told in the queue that the event was oversold by 500 tickets and there was no chance we were getting in even though we had valid tickets, security were not helpful, left waiting for an hour in the queue before being told to get a taxi home as we were definitely not getting in. Given a refund by Skiddle and the lady on the phone was very understanding but this did not make up for the fact that we'd travelled to Liverpool and paid for a hotel all to see Shy FX to be turned away.

Didn’t even manage to get in. They oversold the tickets, which ended up in a lot of people standing outside in a que for over an hour, to be told we weren’t getting in. Still waiting on a refund?
