When will a complaint not be pursued?
We reserve the right to cease corresponding with a customer if their correspondence is, in our reasonable opinion, frivolous, vexatious or abusive.
We cannot pursue a complaint that is directly related to the organiser of the event, such as the content of the event or absence of items that were not booked or requested by the organiser in advance.
