Re: movie tickets. I don't enter to win these - but I got some as a runner up prize. I gave them to my sister in law to use, and the cinema wouldn't accept them. And that was a large cinema in Melbourne. Anyone else have any problems? These were from Universal, so not a small company. Is there a hidden catch? ... just incase I win anymore to palm off to her lol

the terms are on the back, some dont accept on specific days such as public holidays, sat after 5 or on discount tickets days OR if the ticket says for only specific sessions or cinemas. Otherwise they should accept them

Yes we read all that on the back. All it had was not valid at *a list of* cinemas. Nothing else, and she wasn't at one of those cinemas, but they wouldn't accept them. Just said they 'aren't valid here'. Hmmm interesting

Can you contact the promoter and check with them. It would be in their interest to know if a cinema is not accepting tickets if they are valid. Otherwise it is such a waste.

Yes Kaybee, I was thinking that. No point having them if they're not accepted. The movie has finished now, but I was wondering for future reference. Sis in law goes to movies a lot, so may start entering to win a few tickets, but only if she can use them lol
