      I purchased tickets at the ********** ** AMC on 6/18/22 to see ***** **** *** ******* on 7/7/22 for a 9 pm showtime along with popcorn and drinks. About a half hour before my showtime, I received a phone call and had a family emergency. Around 8:45 pm, I went into the AMC website to request a refund for my tickets (total of $71.06) and it kept giving me an error. I tried about 3 times. I would log out, log back in, refresh the screen, clear cache, and I still kept getting an error. I gave up at 8:59 pm because the fine print says we can request a refund before the showtime. I sent an email to customer service that night at 9:05 pm and they sent back an email on how to request a refund and if that doesn't help to email them back. I emailed them back around midnight which was when I was able to get back to my phone and they have not responded back to this day. I sent another request for them to contact me which opened another incident number and still no email back on that either. I tried calling the customer service number and the automated response says their phone lines are not open and we should send an email.

      Reviewed details provided by guest. Can see they contacted support prior showing and received automated message on how to request a refund through the purchase confirmation. Due to any confusion on this, refund has been issued for guest's purchase.

Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
