"Question No 48 by Glyn Ford ()
I have been contacted by a constituent regarding the ridiculous system for the purchase of tickets for the 2006 World Cup finals in Germany.
It appears that the only acceptable method for purchasing tickets is by using a MasterCard credit card, direct debit from a German bank account or by international bank transfer with a massive surcharge of GBP 25 or more on any euro transfer to purchase a 35 ticket, more than doubling the price. Would the Commission consider taking action against those companies that do not provide simple information on how to make a transfer between, for the same price as transfers made within, Member States as laid out in Regulation (EC) 2560/2001? Also, does the Commission agree that the restriction to one credit card company is in blatant disregard for the EU's competition laws? Would the Commission also consider taking action against those responsible for this debacle?"@en1
