    My question to you after attending your cinema today is, why is your adult ticket seven euro and your student ticket eight euro fifty sense and its actually wrote up behind the girl in the ticket office that the student ticket price should be six euro fifty. The error and hike in price is also evident on your website. Surely you must have been alerted to it before now and how come it is not rectified.

    I attended today with my family and my elder sister bought a ticket for an adult priced seven euro and I wanted to get my student ticket which would have cost me eight euro fifty cent but i went for the much cheaper adult ticket. Surely the point of a student ticket is to provide discounted rates for students and not hike up the charge and charge them more???

    It's not really that important and it won't change the world but it's a stupid error in your cinema and you should really rectify it. You can't display one price behind the ticket booth and charge another.

    *(yes im in a bad mood today)

    Lol.. Really? That's ridiculous!

    As an aside though I don't think the cinema guy comes on here anymore. At least I haven't seen him around since pimping the new one..

    I seriously doubt that maybe they made a mistake no?

    why don't you just ask in the cinema itself?

    Bloody Hell that's a bit steep! €9 for a film when you can get two for that price in extravision and you don't have to worry about being searched for contraband popcorn and drinks on the way in.

    I think it's €7 for an adult before 6 pm. I.e. matinees.

    yeh depends on the time you go, the student price only makes sense after 6pm.
