The Scamming Situation
As the popularity of Oogie Boogie Bash soars, an increasing number of scammers are targeting Disney enthusiasts on social media platforms and unauthorized websites.
Disney’s Policy on Tickets
It’s disheartening to know that some people are preying on the fear of missing out, using messages like “if interested, message me as soon as possible, these are super popular!” to lure unsuspecting buyers. However, it’s important to remember that Disney has a clear policy regarding ticket sales and cancellations. Falling for such scams may lead to financial loss or even potential bans from Disney.
According to Disney, they have the right to cancel tickets at any time for any reason or with offering refunds. This policy underscores the potential risks of purchasing unauthorized tickets and the importance of obtaining them from legitimate sources.
Authorized Ticket Sellers
Disney has not authorized any other websites or individuals to sell Oogie Boogie Bash tickets. It is essential to purchase tickets directly from Disney’s website. Tickets purchased by other means (e.g., social media or other websites) may not be valid and can lead to other complications.
Disney’s Terms and Conditions for Ticket Use
Disney has established comprehensive terms and conditions for ticket usage. It is crucial for ticket holders to review these terms and be aware of their responsibilities. A visual representation of these terms, along with the cited source, can be found on Disney’s official website and have been placed here for your reference and note that they may change their terms at any time.
Using E-tickets
E-tickets offer a convenient way to enter the park, eliminating the need to visit will-call and wait in line. To access your e-ticket, use the Disneyland App, which provides a seamless experience.
Tips for Safe Ticket Purchase and Redemption
- Purchase as a Gift: Disney offers the option to purchase tickets as gifts, with e-tickets delivered directly to the recipient. At checkout, mark the box labeled “This order will be a gift” and ensure that the recipient’s information matches the ticket holder.
- E-ticket Access via Disneyland App: If you selected an e-ticket, it can be accessed conveniently through the Disneyland App.
- If you need to reissue an e-ticket, Disney may require you to follow specific steps. These include showing the credit card used for the purchase, presenting a valid photo ID, and providing a printed copy of the e-ticket or order confirmation email. Only the person who purchased the e-tickets will be allowed to pick up the reissued tickets.
Protecting Your E-ticket
It is crucial to safeguard your e-ticket and avoid sharing images with barcodes to avoid any complications. If someone else copies and uses your ticket, the Disney scanner will identify it as already used, preventing your entry. By keeping your e-ticket private and secure, you can ensure a seamless experience at the Oogie Boogie Bash.
Enjoy the Magic and Stay Safe
While it is unfortunate that scammers exist, it’s important not to let them spoil your Halloween fun. If you were unable to secure Oogie Boogie Bash tickets for this 2023 year remember that there are still plenty of other enchanting experiences to enjoy at Disney parks if you are visiting.
