Ordered a 2000 kroner table for the World Cup the organizer canceled the ticket and demanded 6000 kroner

During the World Cup match between Norway and Brazil, fans in Bergen and Oslo experienced issues with ticket pricing. Initially priced at 2000 kroner, tickets were later changed to 6000 kroner by the event organizers, leading to frustration among customers who had already purchased them. The incident sparked complaints, with some customers arguing that they had entered into a binding agreement and should have been refunded or allowed to keep their tickets at the original price. A consumer lawyer stated that such agreements are generally binding unless the price was clearly incorrect. Similar incidents occurred in Oslo, where tickets were also adjusted after purchase. NRK reported that contact with Ticketmaster has not yet yielded resolution.
