You can't activate the 'turn off notifications' service since you've not actually made a direct comment yourself, you've just responded to one.

GET ON WITH THE TRAFFIC NEWS FFS!

McGoohan Sep 2017 7:41am, 27 Sep 2017 31,266 posts	Quote 2 pins McGoohan Booking websites that state, "We are a charity and have included an optional £1.50 in your ticket price". Then you untick and get a pop up that says "Are you sure you don't want to donate? We need charitable donations to continue with our good work" So, heartlessly, you untick again. The charity in question isn't Shelter or Age Concern or something similar. It is a theatre and they have just charged me £70 for the two of us to sit right at the back probably behind a pillar. At a friggin' matinee. I'm not feeling in the slightest charitable now. And being a booking website, it adds £2.50 anyway as a 'booking fee'. Except it's their own website for their own theatre.
