It's not fair to draw people in with what looks like a good deal, only for them to find the real price is higher when they get to the checkout due to extra charges that can't be avoided," said Emma Cochrane, executive director of consumer protection at the CMA.The regulator said StubHub would contact fans about their refund.Eight firms under investigation over online pricingAA and BSM ordered to refund learner drivers for hidden feesCompetition and Markets AuthorityLive music
