Justice for the fans! 9WWOS

Thousands of basketball fans who forked out big money to see the Australian Boomers' two games against Team USA could be eligible for refunds after the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission stepped in.

"In our view, TEG Live's conduct was unacceptable, and we are pleased around 5000 consumers will receive automatic refunds before the end of July," ACCC Chair Rod Sims said.
