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.

So excited for the concert and the overall ordering experience was fantastic! Thank you for making everything so easy!
So happy to be able to get tickets to Elton Johns last concert tour. Your email saying they are available was a great help to get good seats
Delivering? Handling? Fees $100, for an electronic purchase and delivery. Free flash card sign-up, but $6 charge to use it. I get you have to make your cut, but you should be more transparent about it- maybe relabel fee names, like conformance fee, or $#*! you fee :) When I call it that, I'm not so bitter!
Very easy way to purchase tickets! The convenience fee for each ticket was half the face value of the tickets - way too high!
Excellent service, I received very quickly my tickets.
Congrats for the service is very effective!
Super easy and fast! Just a couple of clicks and you are done! Instantly received my tickets. Just have to print them and I am golden. You will love it!
Agree with others that the fee is high but that is the way it is if you want to see the show, so just suck it up, pay it, and move on
It was the best way to buy tickets and so simple. Looking forward to seeing mt favorite singer ever.
Was fast easy and efficient never had such an easy ticket purchase. I got on ordered paid and done that simple
Received my tickets right away, hope I dont have issues trying to enter the event with someone elses name on the tix.
Great experience it was a big help being able to secure my tickets for the show thanks can't wait to see everything and everyone I know that's going to be there..
I was interested in just purchasing tickets and find that these surveys are a bit annoying. If this is something that needs to be done in the future i may find alternative ways to purchase tickets.
Fast delivery and great service. For Canadians shooing in this site the currency is in American $ not Ca.
Prices are to high. I had a lot of friends that wanted to go but cant. Not all of us true country foke can afford you city prices
Got my confirmation that showed that my order and payment was received. I was given the section and two information. However there is no seat number on it. Any one else?
I really had a hard time figuring out where the seats were on the map. I would click on the area that I wanted, but was given other seating sections along with the section I wanted that gets confusing. If a customer clicks on the section they want then ONLY those should be highlighted so you know what is available for that section. Do not like this format. You need more ways to narrow down your selection and then ONLY show those seats if they are available. If there are none, then have a way to note that so we can choose another section, etc. Also, way too expensive in this kind of economy and the "service charge" is ridiculous. The price should include all of this and giving us the option to choose a cheaper way to receive tickets. :(
I think your fee is way to high. Unfortunately, I didn't do my research well enough. I havent been to a concert in almost 20 years. I wish this was easier to use. I still dont know my seat numbers because Im afraid to download until I get to work. So I spent $250 on 2 $60 seats and I still dont know where they are!. Is floor 5 the same as grandstand 5? FML! This will probably be the last concert I will attend. I'm 51, have MS. And some blindness. I would have loved to have gotten floor seats but I cant stand for a whole show. Are there seats on the floor or just standing? Who knows...
Convenient service, but the add-on fees on top of the face value are outrageous. I will not be using this service again.
I appreciated your good service and your fast answer to reserve tickets. But, for Canadians citizens, it's very bad that you need to pay the difference between american and canadian dollars.
Answer: In my case, they sent e-mail that the tickets would be forthcoming. When I failed to receive them the week before the concert, per e-mail download as promised, I called their #, the person on the other end told me that it was will-call at the box-office with the copy of the e-mail I needed to bring. The box office told me that as a 2nd line seller, they did not keep them there. When I called to ask why they did this to me and demanded re-imbursal, they sent the tickets per e-mail download THE DAY AFTER THE CONCERT. They tried to cover their tracks with the credit card company, the problem for them was that the time stamp of their sending the tickets reflected the day after the concert. So essentially, they are not even competent as rip-off artists.
Answer: So sorry to hear you have been conned by this outfit. Apparently sometimes they DO send valid tickets, so I hope you are one of the lucky ones. I suggest you tell your credit card company (by phone and IN WRITING) that you are disputing this charge. Also tell everyone you know to avoid this rip-off company. I know this doesnt help you now, but in the future buy tickets only from Ticketmaster (I've never had a problem with them). Good luck.
Answer: I couldn't even open the download so I called the number and all I got was an answering system to send email and I did but no reply from them so the next day a call about 50 times until I got someone. After getting transferred to 3 different people and waiting about an hour for the supervisor the guy told me no refunds are allowed but money is 100% guarantee if it doesn't work at the time of the event. So I'm praying to God they are good the event isn't until the end of November
Answer: They are scoundrels. I know where their office is and went by there recently. I am laying out a plan.
Answer: If you have already purchased your tickets from this outfit, good luck. They sent me tickets for a concert in Tennessee and I asked for and live in Florida. They said it was MY mistake and that I asked for TN. They supposedly tried to resell the tickets and couldn't so I was out $300.00 for two tickets. They have something like 130 complaints and are a scam outfit. Next time order elsewhere and good luck with these tickets.
Answer: I just cancelled my order because they never sent the tickets. At least you got yours so maybe they will be okay. I would call the arena where the event will be and ask them how many issues they have had with this company. I emailed five times and they always sent an automated response back. Then, when I was in a meeting at work they finally called and the number just read, "33333" when they called me. No return phone number... very strange. They left a message to call them so I did immediately after my meeting (15 minutes)... the automated system was up and did not allow me to speak with a person. Thus far, I have never spoken to a real person when I call their number. I disputed the purchase, got my money back and bought tickets for much less at StubHub. I was surprised because my last tickets at Stubhub were kind of expensive... but these tickets (McCartney) were not too crazy expensive. Anyway, best of luck, and I would make a back up plan.
Answer: You will get your tickets, but they will likely have someone else's name printed on them. Worst of all, they will most likely not be honored at the gate/box office. My advice is to get a refund NOW and buy tickets from a reputable outlet like Ticketmaster. City Online are thieves and scammers. See my review about James Taylor concert in Norfolk, Virginia.
Answer: Contact the venue, give them all the details on the tickets received and verify if U will be able to legitimately use the tickets, considering the issues with this company that are so overwhelming. My experience reviewing all the people who describe their issues with them is that even if the tickets are usable, the overpayment is so excessive that it would have been better dealing with the regular ticket outlet for the venue.
Answer: Yes Ann, you will get your tickets. You just over paid by a HUGE amount... but other then that, the company is legit. They are just robbers the way they do it... thats all. Have a good time and yes, at least now you learned a lesson (like all of us on this site);-)
