@dallasmorningnews: Matthew Mabel says he paid $860 for what appeared to be solid mid-level seats for a 2026 FIFA World Cup match at AT&T Stadium — only to discover the seats were near the top of the venue. After getting no response from FIFA, he says MasterCard quickly refunded the purchase and opened an investigation. His case comes as fans across the country raise concerns about FIFA’s ticketing process, arguing seat locations were unclear during sales for the World Cup. California’s attorney general is now investigating possible consumer protection violations. Would you keep the tickets or demand a refund? ⚽👇 📹: Shannon Worley / Social video producer

FIFA showed a seat map for the entire stadium but knowingly excluded the middle rows reserved for hospitality and vip tickets. Many people like myself paid category 1 retail price with the expectation that middle of the field or first 3 rows of seats would be a possibility. But that wasn’t the case.

It’s not “confusing or misleading”.. it’s bait and switch, which is illegal.

They have also been changing those seating maps since sales opened 👀. You’d see one chart today and another one next week
