Fandango Hidden Fees Class Action Investigation

A class action lawsuit has been filed against Fandango Media LLC in New York federal court. Plaintiffs allege that Fandango engages in “drip pricing” by advertising movie ticket prices without including a mandatory convenience fee which only appears later in the checkout process.

The complaint asserts that this practice misleads consumers by showing lower ticket prices initially—making them appear more attractive—while hiding the full cost until after significant time has already been invested in the transaction. Plaintiffs claim this prevents accurate comparison shopping, burdens consumers with extra effort, and unfairly inflates final costs.

The proposed class includes consumers across the U.S. (except New York) who paid hidden convenience fees for movie tickets via Fandango, and a subclass of those in Illinois. The lawsuit alleges violations of the Illinois Consumer Fraud Act and New York Arts & Cultural Affairs Law. Relief sought includes a jury trial, declaratory and injunctive remedies, and compensatory/statutory damages.
