Betreft: Prince concert Parijs en Lyon



Geachte heer/mevrouw,


Helaas moeten wij U mededelen dat de Prince concerten in januari in Parijs en Lyon niet doorgaan.

De organisator van het concert Live Nation meldt ons dat de concerten verplaatst zijn naar maart / april.

Weer eens een keer is Prince gemakkelijk met niet nakomen van afspraken.

Via Palais Omnisports Bercy wisten we dat er data in januari van Prince concerten op de agenda stonden.

M.a.w. de info welke we via organisator hadden was goed gecontroleerd.



We verwachten snel de nieuwe data en prijzen.

We zullen U onmiddellijk informeren over de nieuwe arrangementen van C&O Travel.



We vinden het natuurlijk bijzonder vervelend dat men zo gemakkelijk de datum verplaatst. Onze excuses voor het ongemak !



Mocht U via C&O Travel hotel of reis geboekt hebben, behoeft U verder geen kosten i.v.m. annuleren kamers of reis te betalen.

C&O Travel garandeert 100% restitutie.



In uw geval was er nog niet betaald en kunt U rustig afwachten tot we U de nieuwe datum melden.







Vriendelijke groet,



C&O Travel.

Can anybody translate this - please?

About: Prince concert Paris and Lyon

Dear Sir / Madam,

We regret to have to inform you that the concerts scheduled for
January in Paris and Lyon are cancelled.

The organizer of the concert Live Nation informed us that the concerts
have been moved to March and April.

Once again Prince has been easy with not living up to the agreement.

Palais Omnisports Bercy told us that there were dates in January schedules
for Prince.

In other words, we checked the information given to us by the organizer well.

We expect new dates and prizes soon.

We will inform you as soon as possible about the new arrangements of C&O
Travel.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience that the organizer changed the date
so easy. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

If you booked your hotel or journey through C&O Travel, you don't have to
pay anything for cancelling the hotel or journey.

C&O Travel garantees 100% refund.

? huh? They were the oly ones making agreements with people by selling tix nobody else could buy at that moment. Hard to believe there was any agreement at all from Prince his side.

dont shoot the messenger by the way

only translated! may not be perfect so any other translations welcome

If you want to inform why C&O travel in the Netherlands, as one of two organisations in te world, sold tickets for Prince concerts that where not confirmed by Prince, Bercy or any other official organisation and now blame the artist whom they wanted to make big bucks of, you can call them at their 24 hours international telephone service in The Netherlands 00 31 6 53994900. And at the same time you can book for the concerts in March they are talking about but be aware that those are also not confirmed by anyone who's entitled to confirm. The F***** Liberty. And make it short, it's a mobile number.

Oh great! Time to save up, and March is my birthday - perfect!

Hi guys.

I've been keeping an eye on the internet since I heard about the prince concerts in January 2008. (1,5 months ago)

I personally don't trust any site except from the Bercy site/3121.com/prince.org/housequake.com/princefams.com when it comes to the right information. FYI: C&O travel website came up through a search at a website that puts fraudulent organisations in a spotlight. I'm not telling you that you shouldn't book there, but just be carefull and don't pay before you have anything in your hands.....

I've mailed Bercy and they gave me the answer that they're still busy with the contract for the concerts: Pour le moment nous sommes en attente d'informations, nous n'avons pas signé de contrat avec la production. I've read this answer on several fora, so I guess they have that line on their clipboard to copy paste...

I've also asked Tickets.nl to inform with Bercy what and when. Tickets.nl is an organisation I trust. I've been to the Prince concert on 1 September 2007 in London with their organisation and to some other events (goodbye match Dennis Bergkamp in new Arsenal stadium and Michael Bublé at Ahoy). Not one bad remark about their service. If I hear anything from them, I'll let you know.
