A Gesture to Convention Goers

For the second time in recent months, WATCHDOG has done a report on a
convention that has left fans disappointed and out of pocket.
The vast majority of conventions held in the UK are well run, and with the fans best interests at heart; sadly there are always one or two events that are quite different, and leave fans somewhat disenchanted.
The two recent WATCHDOG reports have highlighted the problems with certain events, but I myself am worried that those who booked for those events, and those who saw these reports without any experience of other conventions, will be left with the feeling that the problems with this events are the norm, as opposed to the exception, for all conventions in the UK.
STARFURY would like to take steps to help those fans and attendees who feel that they may have lost out.
A certain number of tickets for STARFURY: ETERNAL have been set aside as a good will gesture.
Anybody who was promised either a refund or a free ticket to their next event by JEALOUS EVENTS after attending THE DAVID BOEARANAZ UK EVENT, or anybody who purchased a ticket for the WHITESWALLOW convention E-1, irrespective of whether they have received a refund or not, is eligible to receive a free complimentary ticket for the convention STARFURY: ETERNAL.
Anybody who has purchased a ticket for the S3 EVENTS DESTINY, and has
requested but not received a refund, may purchase a ticket for STARFURY: ETERNAL at the reduced price of thirty pounds.
Please note that STARFURY is in no way associated or connected with JEALOUS EVENTS, S3 EVENTS or WHITESWALLOW, and accepting a complimentary or discount ticket to STARFURY: ETERNAL in no way absolves and other convention organization from any responsibility that they may have to you.
Please not that those with complimentary or discount tickets will not be eligible for free autographs from the guests attending STARFURY: ETERNAL.
STARFURY: ETERNAL is taking place from 26-28 March at the Thistle Hotel, Heathrow with guests Adrienne Wilkinson, Tracey Scoggins, Jayne Heitmeyer and Laura Bertram. Tickets are priced at sixty-five pounds. Guests appear subject to work commitments.
