Ticketmaster Might Be Giving You Free Tickets

If you have a Ticketmaster account, thanks to a court settlement, you may have some free tickets waiting for you.

Ticketmaster recently settled a $400 million dollar class action lawsuit over its exorbitant fees. Now, they're paying out in the form of discount codes and vouchers.

Approximately 50 million people who bought tickets on Ticketmaster between October 21, 1999 and February 27, 2013 are now being rewarded due to overcharged service fees. Last month, emails alerting members of the class action began going out under the subject, "Schlesinger v. Class Action Settlement, Notice Regarding Discount and Ticket Codes.

Of course, it has been quite some time since 1999, so there's a chance you may have received the email since your primary email you set up your account was through hotmail way back when you attended that *N'Sync concert.

To check, log into your Ticketmaster account and click "Active Vouchers." There is a limited list of eligible events that the vouchers are good for. But nevertheless, free shows!
