Namely I used to be able to get a credit for seats if returned early enough, but they've taken that option away - fair enough for new purchases, they're the vendor, but to say we can change terms and conditions for old purchases seems mad!

Does anyone with a UK legal background have an opinion on this?
"Changes to terms and conditions

******** Theatre reserves the right to change these terms and conditions from time to time, including for historic transactions"?
They've recently removed an option for tickets i bought 3 months ago!

"Major engineering works halt London–Peterborough trains on weekends"? - which means that I have, of course, fallen foul of Muphry's law 🀣 I should have just scrolled by 😜
