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.

The site is easy to use, but the fee is just too high. Will only use again in extreme circumstance.

Outrageous Service Charge
November 30, 2017

$28.36 for the Service Charge PER ticket! Bought 4 tickets and spent $113.44 in service charges. Now get the pleasure of passing the fees onto and explaining to the other 3 ticket holders. Disappointing to say the least!

When I received the tickets, each states limited view on the ticket. This was not shown prior to purchasing the tickets. I am very disappointed.

The tickets are valued at HALF what I paid! And to top it off, there is a $30 fee per ticket AND a $7.50 fee for the privilege of printing the tickets out on your own printer using your own ink and paper. Now that's a bargain!? I'm planning on calling the state's attorney to see if these guys can be sued for this!

The fees are ridiculous
November 30, 2017

I paid more for fees than I did the tickets. Kind of ridiculous if you ask me. The overall usage of the site was okay. No different than ticketmaster. Easy enough to use. But the fees. COME ON.

The Service Fee Charges are outrageous - almost as much as the tickets themselves. The site is easy to use, but I doubt that I will use it again. Paulette

PRICES?
November 30, 2017

On a positive note, the tickets were easy to order and came quickly. However, the pricing is extremely confusing and HIGH! You were selling 4 tickets lower level for $60 each, but with all the extra charges, I had to pay $328.15! Then, when I received the tickets, it says on them they were only $40 a piece! So the tickets were really $160, but I am paying about $168 more with charges! I just hope these seats are GREAT!

Fees too high
November 29, 2017

Site was easy to use but the service fees were way too high. I expect the service to make a profit but in my opinion the fees far exceeded a reasonable profit.

I feel the ticket charges are high for a single purchase. We have to pay 1/3 of the ticket price for handling, which seems unreasonably exorbitant.
Also we have to have the tickets down loaded to a phone, it was the only option. What happens if something happens to the phone? There is plenty of time to mail them to me.

Easy site to navigate but the service charge per ticket is ridiculously high - it is not made clear at the beginning

Pricey service
November 29, 2017

Easy site, had lots of options for tickets, but to the service fee is pretty high. Probably won't use them again because of that.
