I can't pay for my tockets. And also I have to pay for myself despite Im a regular customer and have ypur card. Can you resolve my problem.please? Because I pay monthly £17.99 !!!

AI Highlights
  • - A regular customer pays a monthly fee but still faces extra ticket charges.
  • - Payment failed today on both cards despite available funds; please help.

Even though I've been a regular customer for many years, I still have to pay for my ticket every month! I pay a monthly fee, but it still says I have to pay extra. Could you help? I'd be grateful. Also, I couldn't pay today for my tickets for some reason; I tried both my cards (yes, there are money on them!). So I have no idea what's going on. Can you help, please? Thank you.

Regards,

Justyna

Your customer

Preferred solution: Help with my payments. I dont want to double pay because I already pay my monthly payment.

User's recommendation: Yes, but I need to solve my problem first.

Hello, I booked a ticket at [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA] cineWorld a few minutes ago. The payment has already been taken from my bank account, but I did not receive printed ticket.

Before making the payment, I entered my email address and phone number correctly, but I have not received the ticket by email or SMS either.

Could you please check my booking and resend the ticket as soon as possible ? Because the show is tonight

Thank you.
