Atom Tickets no longer supported at Regal Cinemas

I do the same thing and for the same reason. lol

Btw, do you happen to know if there's any penalty for repeatedly buying A-List tickets through Fandango and then not showing up to get your ticket scanned? Two trips to the cinema a week is pretty much our limit (and even that can be hard) but the $5 rewards for buying 4 tickets through Fandango is part of of what's making A-List work for me and my GF. I see AMC's site just says the purchases will count against your allotment whether you show up or not so it doesn't seem like they care.

From the A-List terms and conditions on the AMC website:

"You understand that tickets reserved using A-List Membership are intended to be used, and habitual no-show activity may result, in our sole judgment, in cancellation of a Membership for cause and without a prorated refund."

I've already purchased tickets through Atom for a documentary in September at a Regal theater. Is this barcode still good? Do I need to get a refund?

update:
When I look at that showtime on Fandango the seats are still sold, so I'm guessing everything is still good right now. I'll go by the theater and try to print the tickets at the kiosk and see what happens.

Mine still seem good too. Please let me know what happens at the theater when you attempt to print them.

I’d prepurchased several sets of tickets for this Regal theater, some through Fandango, some through Atom. When I slid the card I used for purchase at the kiosk, it printed all of the tickets I purchased from Fandango, but none of the Atom tickets. I slid again and it didn’t find any other reservations. There was an option to scan a barcode, so I scanned the barcode I got when I purchased my Atom tickets and it printed them out.

I’m guessing it would have found them if I used the confirmation number as well. Not sure why it didn’t find them with my card. Probably would have been fine to just use the barcode at showtime, but in this situation I’m glad I have the actual tickets now.

Thanks for pointing that out, figured it might be an issue. I'll just have buy a ticket to a film immediately following one I actually see and get the code scanned before leaving the theater. Inconvenient but worth it so long as Fandango continues their current coupon promotion.
