Ed Sheeran fan accidentally spent £1,300 on tickets, and is RAGING
Last Friday morning is not one we'll forget in a hurry here at SHEmazing! HQ.
With sweat forming on our brows and our trembling fingers poised over our keyboards, more than a few of us primed ourselves before attempting to get our hands on tickets to Ed Sheeran's Dublin gig.
And hell, was it a pressurised environment.
So, we have nothing but sympathy for one Ed Sheeran fan who admitted she accidentally spent £1,300 on three tickets to see the man himself after the pressure got too much for her on secondary ticketing website – Viagogo.
21-year-old Charlotte Duckworth has hit out at the site after she was shown a total of £377, and led to believe that that was the cost of all three tickets.
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, she said: "I can't afford that and I'm trying everything I can to get my money back. That's nearly three months rent. I've sent several emails to Viagogo but they keep saying there's nothing they can do."

Taking to Twitter, Charlotte highlighted the severity of the situation by explaining she'd likely have to move home and sell her car in order to facilitate the unexpected expenditure.
Unfortunately for Charlotte. not everybody is sympathetic, with one follower writing: "Who adds items to their cart and goes through the checkout process without looking at the price?"
"Nobody forced you on to that website. It is because people buy from these pr*cks that they are in existence," added another.
Viagogo's website states: "It's not possible to cancel or exchange tickets once a purchase has been made as orders are considered final."
