World Cup fans sue StubHub over cancelled tickets

sports football world cup legal proceedings

StubHub is facing a lawsuit from hundreds of soccer fans in the U.S. who claim the ticket resale platform failed to deliver expensive tickets for the FIFA World Cup. The plaintiffs allege that the reseller's inability to fulfill orders crushed their dreams of attending the tournament.

The lawsuit alleges that the platform abruptly canceled tickets at the last minute, costing customers thousands of dollars. Many fans complained that the promised tickets never arrived and that orders were canceled just before the matches.

In response to these failures, the Americans behind the lawsuit are seeking to have StubHub banned from selling World Cup tickets.
