A cancellation protected booking has a window of upto 10 days prior to the Event or date of courier whichever is earlier for cancelling the booking.

Tickets purchased online on BLR Hubba Platform cannot be cancelled via an offline mode either being the box-office or stores.

Cancellation Protect only covers the ticket and food and beverages booked, any additional amount like commission, booking fee & cancellation protect fees including GST on the same will not be refunded.

You may reach out to us at mario@bychoice.club for verifying the purchased tickets.

PRICING, OFFERS, AVAILABILITY, AND SEAT CONFIRMATION

BLR Hubba Platform is a ticketing platform and sells tickets on behalf of Event Organisers and therefore has no control over its availability, offers, and pricing. If the Event Organiser announces any offer for the Event, such an offer will not apply to the tickets purchased before the announcement of the offer.

After the payment is complete, You will receive a confirmation page or email that must be shown at the event venue to redeem Your tickets.

If You do not receive a confirmation number after submitting payment information, or if you experience an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, please get in touch with our customer service department to confirm whether the order has been placed or not. We don’t want You to lose money in case You assume that an order was not placed because you failed to receive confirmation.

While purchasing tickets, You are limited to a specific number of tickets You can buy per event.

CANCELLATIONS, EXCHANGES AND REFUNDS

Tickets

ANY TICKET PURCHASED THROUGH THE BLR HUBBA PLATFORM IS MEANT SOLELY AND EXCLUSIVELY FOR PERSONAL USE BY THE PERSON IN WHOSE NAME THE TICKET HAS BEEN ISSUED. TICKETS ARE NOT A TRANSFERABLE PROPERTY AND CANNOT BE RESOLD, TRANSFERRED OR CONVEYED TO ANY PERSON UNLESS PRIOR WRITTEN AND EXPRESS PERMISSION HAS BEEN PROVIDED BY THE EVENT ORGANIZER. ANY PERSON FOUND ABUSING TICKETS FOR PERSONAL GAIN OR FOR COMMERCIAL USE SHALL BE LIABLE TO SUITABLE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS INCLUDING THOSE RELATED TO BLACK MARKETING AND FINANCIAL & CRIMINAL FRAUD.

If ByChoice or the Event Organizer finds that You are transferring or selling, or You had in the past transferred or sold, Your tickets, including m-ticket or band, through any mode, including social media platforms, other ticketing platforms, by hand, thereby allowing any other person to access the Event without purchasing the ticket from BLR Hubba Platform, then ByChoice or the Event Organizer may initiate suitable legal proceedings.

Tickets once sold cannot be exchanged, cancelled, modified, transferred, or refunded, and You shall not make any request for modifications in the ticket, including change in date, time, location, or category unless the Event Organizer has specified so in the Event’s terms and conditions. Please make sure You check the date, time, and location before You book Your tickets. But we’d still advise You to read the terms and conditions for each Event regarding exchange, cancellation, modification, transfer, and refund. If You wish to change or modify your ticket details, the same shall be entirely at the discretion of the Event Organizer.
If an Event is cancelled or postponed and the Event Organisers of such Event agree on issuing a refund for the tickets, it shall be the Event Organiser's sole responsibility to contact You and process the refund and ByChoice shall have no liability in this regard. However, the booking fee charged by ByChoice is non-refundable. If the Event Organizer informs ByChoice to process the refunds on their behalf, Your refunds may reflect in Your account within seven (07) to ten (10) working days from the date of receiving the refund request.

Refund Policy

In case You have made the payment but failed to receive any email and/or SMS confirmation, then chances are that such a payment has failed. Once we have confirmed a failed order, we process refunds on our own. While we process such refunds within 3-5 days, it may take up to 7-10 working days (and sometimes more) for your financial institution to credit the amount back to your account.

ByChoice reserves the right to deny refunds for tickets purchased outside of BLR Hubba Platform. Any decisions taken by the event organiser and BLR Hubba management will be final and binding in this regard. If you find that you have been issued fake tickets not authorized by us, then you may be a victim of fraud, for which you may consider filing appropriate police complaints/first information report at the nearest police station having jurisdiction over the area of your residence. We bear no responsibility or liability, under any law or circumstances, for such frauds committed by unauthorized third parties.

Accepting delivery shall exempt ByChoice from all liability for damage to physical tickets arising because of packaging issues and ByChoice shall not be responsible to compensate You for such damage or provide You a replacement ticket. We will not be able to help You redeem the physical tickets if the barcode/qr code is not scannable. In such situations, You will be required to purchase another new ticket(s) to get access to the venue.
