The Haney Public House Haney Public House New Years Eve ticket scam! Maple Ridge, British Columbia
4th of Jan, 2011 by User390166
The Haney Public House in Maple Ridge BC was holding a New Years Eve event on Friday Dec 31st 2010. I made a reservation for a table of 16 people a month prior to the event.


I was told that It would cost $200.00 to reserve the table that included appetizers, 20 shots and champange plus addmission for 16 people. I was also told that ticket / reservationholders did not have to wait in the line if the arrived before 9:30pm. The manager that I spoke with also said that we had to be there by 9:30pm or our reservation would be void.


I paidfor thetable reservation/ticketsand picked them up3 weeks prior to the event.


On the night of the event Dec 31, 2010our group of 16 peoplearrive at The Haney Public House at 9:10pm to complete chaos. There was a mob of about 200 people crowded by the entrance. I went to speak with one of the Security people and told them that we have a tablereservation for 16 people. He then said to me " Idon'tgive a s**t if you have a reservation" "reservations are over" It clearly states on the 16 tickets that I had in my hand that 9:30pm was the cut off time and it was only 9:10pm. He then continuedto say that he didnt car what the ticket saidand walked away. 3 minutes later the guy beside me slips him $150.00 cash andbouncer let him and 2 other girls in the club.


At this point the only people they were letting in were people that were paying them alot of cash or girls with really short skirts. I jumped up on the ledge of the building to look through the window to see if it was really busy in there. When I looked through the window I realized that the place was only half full and they were making people wait outside in the feezeing cold for no reason. Some people that we talked to said that they had been waiting outside since 8:00pm and they had tickets aswell.


At this point the people waiting outside were getting very angry and volitile. 8 people out of the 16 people we came with left because they could not bare to stand out in the cold anymore. Which means that those people paid for tickets for this event that was suppose to be garranteed no line up entrance plus table. They got scammed. WE ALL GOT SCAMMED


After going at it back and forth with the bouncer he finally decided to let our group in and promised that our table would still be available. In total our group waited outside for 45 minutes for no reason. A huge fight broke out right before we walked inbetween the 2 bouncers and 2 other guys in the line up and people were getting knocked over and pushed around it was very scary. At this point my night was ruined my stomach was turning from all the chaos.


Once we got inside we walked around looking for our table.To no surprizethere was no table for us. After all that and the $200.00 we paid for a table reservationwe gotnothing that was promised to us or that we paidfor. This whole ordeal completely ruined 16 peoples New Years Eve.


2people out of our group went back the next day to speak to the manager and get a refundbut the employees inside said that he was not avaliable.


We have spent alot of money in the pastat this bar and thought itwould be fun to spendNew Years Eve there, boy was I wrong. It was absolutly disgusting how this establishment handled that event. They ruined 100's of peoples night I hope anyone who reads this post will think twice about going to the Haney Public House for a specialevent you might just be left out in the cold.
