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.

You better be quick!
November 18, 2017

As I was submitting my order for tickets, I got the "the tickets you chose are no longer available" message, frustrated me a bit, but found success quickly after.

Very Easy
November 18, 2017

Very easy to order tickets. I just hope that when the time comes to actually print the tickets, that it all goes well.

What a joke!
November 17, 2017

It takes a lot for me to write a review but this site has managed to get me to do so! I just went to purchase tickets to a concert and everything was going just fine. The order went through, they even ran my credit card. I then received an email saying that my tickets were canceled! I thought that there might have been a mistake so I called, there wasn't! They said that I had filed a dispute with one of their partners (who actually scammed me) so they could never allow me to buy tickets through them again, HAHAHAHA! Went right to StubHub and got the exact same seats for cheaper, guess everything happens for a reason. This site is the biggest joke! They don't want to accept my money because one of their partners scammed me and i tried to get my money back. For anyone looking for tickets I would never go through this site as they charge to much and the customer service is terrible. I hope this review helps out someone in the future from getting screwed over by this joke of a company. Have a GREAT DAY everyone!

I purchased tickets to take my granddaughters to see Disney on Ice In Portland, Me. After I told them and they were all excited, I found out that I was being charged an exorbitant service charge for each ticket and then a charge for emailing. I would have cancelled if I had not already told the girls. Next time I will purchase them at the box office. I gave them one star but I would really like to have given them a minus star.

Very easy to order the tickets, but the $60+ service charge is way out of line and borders on larceny. You could save money by taking a trip to the box office and buying the tickets in person. If you can avoid it don't buy tickets on line.

Good
November 18, 2017

It was a good service. Fees are too expensive. I had to buy my ticket anyway so I am happy with the purchase. I do not wanna write more, 100 is too many characters.

Fast convienent
November 18, 2017

The service charged was 30% of the ticket price. Other than that, it was quick and easy. My service charge was $50 a ticket. But if you have more money than you can spend it is very VIP

Easy to use.
November 18, 2017

Except for the rather expensive "service" fee. The site is easy to use. I would use an alternative method of getting tickets online if I knew of one.

Thanks - but!
November 16, 2017

Tickets were easy to order - thank you, but the services charges are outrageous. Also the $7 charge for emailing is ridiculous. Usually when I order tickets, they mail them to me "free of charge". Since the concert is next June, there is apply time for you to mail me the tickets.
If this wasn't a birthday present, I would think twice.

Scam
November 16, 2017

$7 for an emailed ticket. Per ticket! After $37 of "additional fees." Its getting out of hand. I understand that there is some overhead and companies like this need to make a profit but this is just greed.

Easy To Use
November 16, 2017

If you can't qualify for a pre-sale of a popular concert and don't mind the extra charge for both the service and the original ticket holder, then this is your place.

All is well!
November 16, 2017

Received confirmation, connected chat rep to ask few questions, answered to satisfaction.
Its little different than other resale agencies, because seats assignments are not available until couple days before the events. Im sure it will work out fine? Told tickets purchased on same transaction will be seated together. Taking little ones, so it was a bit of concern. Answer to my satisfaction!
