Cineplex facing 2 class action lawsuits
A Vancouver based law firm is presenting Cineplex theatres with 2 class action law suits over online booking fees. When you buy tickets online movie goers will pay a small fee (hidden) of $1.50.
This law firm, is taking legal action as of this week and it could hit the theatre company where it is hurting most, (on the bottom line and in customer care/trust.
Here is more.
The world would be so good if it weren't for some people...

Landmark Cinemas brought in the same fee last year, so they may be getting the same attention soon.

while we're at it, perhaps we should sue Cineplex for putting "edible oil product" on their popcorn instead of good old butter.

Re: Cineplex facing 2 class action lawsuits
I believe they were already sued for advertisements before the movie, but they're still doing it, so obviously
the penalties were insufficient.

What, why?
Same with the service fee. So what? It's not tacked on after you've already agreed to buy.
This isn't food or shelter; It's Hollywood movies. Take it or leave it. If enough people leave it, the so-called problem will fix itself.
