Article II
RAISING A COMPLAINT
 
1. Raising a complaint upon receiving a ticket at the Sazka terminal.
1.1. The customer is entitled to raise a complaint if the complete and proper printing of all paid tickets fails to be effected. The complaint can only be made if the customer has followed the Business Terms. Complaints are made immediately after the purchase of the relevant tickets at the Sazka terminal where the tickets were sold.

 
1.2. Complaints are raised using the Warranty Claim, to be completed by the terminal operator. In the Warranty Claim, the terminal operator shall specify the data required for handling the complaint, notably the date of making the complaint, the name, venue and time of the event, the total quantity and amount in CZK of correctly and incorrectly printed tickets, the details of the booked seat(s) for seated ticket(s), and the customer contact details. Enclosed with the Warranty Claim must be the draft ticket or completed ticket slip with the existing reservation number or, if applicable, all printed tickets (voucher) including the incorrectly printed ones. The customer shall receive a confirmed copy of the Warranty Claim. Sazka shall notify the customer of the outcome of the Complaint Procedure within the statutory period.

 
1.3. Within the period of less than 10 business days before the date of the relevant event, Sazka cannot guarantee that the customer will receive (a) particular booked ticket(s) or voucher. The terminal operator shall deal with the occurred situation as an immediate complaint, according to information obtained by phone from SAZKA sázková kancelář, a.s. The terminal operator shall orally advise the customer of the manner and date of handling the complaint. In that case, the customer shall be refunded the money paid.

 
1.4. Once the customer receives the ticket(s) or voucher, the customer is obliged to check the printed data for accuracy. If the customer raises an immediate complaint, the ticket(s) or voucher about which the complaint was raised will be cancelled via the terminal and the customer will be refunded the money paid. If cancelling the ticket(s) or voucher about which a complaint was raised is technically impossible, the terminal operator shall draw up the Warranty Claim with the customer. Tickets sold within a package of a few different tickets for various events cannot be cancelled via the terminal for technical reasons, and the terminal operator is obliged to draw up a Warranty Claim with the customer in that case. In the event of cancelling an order about which a complaint was raised, the customer shall return the issued ticket(s) or voucher to the terminal operator.

 
1.5. Temporary service unavailability in the Sazka terminal network shall not be subject to complaint.

3. Raising a complaint upon receiving a ticket at an authorised sales outlet.
3.1 The customer is entitled to raise a complaint if the complete and proper printing of all paid tickets fails to be effected. The complaint can only be made if the customer has followed the Business Terms.
