OnlineCityTickets Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to issues with ticket delivery, refund policies, and customer service responsiveness. Many customers report being charged exorbitant fees, receiving invalid tickets, and facing unresponsive support channels, leading to frustrations and claims of being scammed. While some customers appreciate the variety of events offered, the overwhelming sentiment reflects a lack of trust and reliability. The company's rigid policies regarding refunds, particularly for postponed events, further exacerbate negative perceptions, suggesting a need for improved customer service and clearer communication.

Easy experience

Very happy. I couldn't be happier with my experience on this site. No issues what so ever. I will use this site again to purchase tickets.

I can't tell if I've received what your asking. I haven't received tickets. I got an order summary and an insurance email.

Hidden fees
February 18, 2018

When I saw the actual price that I would have had to pay through the venue I was disgusted with the hidden fees

OK - Exorbitant Surcharge
February 19, 2018

The tickets are available usually for what you want, but the prices are misleading. Our tickets were supposed to be $69, but they ended up being $93 each because of hidden fees. Surcharge was $20 and an additional fee of $7.50 was charged to download the PDF for the ticket. Also, our second set of tickets (couldn't find 4 together) were quite a bit more, and I received a notification that they wouldn't be available for download until three days before the concert, and we purchased them almost three months in advance. Makes me very nervous.

Process was quick and easy. Download link arrived quickly. Service charges of $27 a ticket are ludicrous.

First time buy
February 19, 2018

Process was smooth and easy, with follow up email making sure all info was confirmed. Will most likely use this service again once another event is available.

Easy to buy tickets, but the handling charges are too high. I think I just got scalped. I will look elsewhere next time.

Okay
February 17, 2018

I dont like the fact that you charge someone to emaik them a ticket or for them to download in to their phone. I also dont like the service fee for both tickets. I can see doing one service fee for one online order but not for every ticket i like it is a bunch of crap. I will not buy tickets onlinw again i will take my chances in the line.

Hidden fees
February 16, 2018

This company includes crazy hidden fees. $50 service charge per ticket. Bait and switch on the price. I would not do this again if I didn't absolutely have to.

Lots of Anxiety
February 16, 2018

The site is helpful and user friendly. What I DON'T like is not having actual tickets to show for my $400+ purchase.

This feature causes me enough anxiety to prevent me from buying tickets from you in the future.
