Lack of service

Richard_M, May 2026
I went to the forum and discovered that the meeting point was inside the gate and I had to purchase a ticket to get Inside. All you provided me with was a voucher that wouldn’t do anything. I questioned it. Nobody answered. I called. Nobody answered. I want my money back.
