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.

Good experience - fairly easy and friendly to complete. Looking forward to using the tickets and having a great time with good memories.
No problems with this order - easy and quick process. I would recommend it to anyone as a way to get tickets an event.
I'm really satisfied, really good prices for the shows and really fast to buy the tickets from here, I will do it again and again thank you so much for helping costumers with this website
I bought tickets from a person (didn't say onlinecity tickets). When they were charged they were charged as US. This was for a Canadian venue. They were so expensive with the exchange and other charges I asked my Visa to ask for some kind of refund. Now I am banned from buying from them. I bought tickets yesterday, then they sent me an email saying my tickets were cancelled as I disputed their prices previously.
Order went smoothly and tickets received quickly. Initially the site indicated tickets would be received a couple days before the event. I was able to download and print tickets the next day.
Ordering my tickets for an event at the Giant Center in Hershey PA was quick and easy and the etickets were delivered quickly to my email.
Fast and easy to navigate. I'm extremely happy that it didn't take up much of my time to place the order. It was so quick that I literally placed the order while I was pumping gas this morning.
I checked the venue for prices and there was no difference in price for the same seats. I'll use this site again, I thought it was easy.
It was easy to fine a section that I like and be able to see all the tickets available to buy on the website and then it was easy to buy the tickets on line
The site made it incredibly easy for me to both find and purchase my tickets and it was also fairly reasonably priced. I would recommend this site to a friend and I am overly satisfied with my experience and soooooo excited to attend an amazing concert!
I appreciate how smooth it went and how easy it is to maneuver the websit. I would appreciate it so much more if I wasnt required to have 100 characters to write a review
Got tickets... scheduling fees pop up in the end just before you buy. What WAS a $230 investment is now $299! Jesus Christ!
First time user and was a bit reluctant. However, order processed and tickets received as promised! Thank you.
I like the way the web site is set up, easy to navigate. Not really sure why I had to pay a 22$ fee for each ticket, if that's the case tell me the tickets are $90 each not $68 and then saying they'll be a fee at the end
The tickets were a little expensive, but the site was pretty easy to use. Looking forward to the show.
Over 30% markup for taxes, fees, bribes, and money laundering. It's a ridiculous scam and I won't do it again.
The fact that I can buy tickets straight from the venue at 2/3rds the price and choose a better section and seats than anything in here is bull $#*! plus no refund capability at all from this site! Total scam and no concern for customers value.
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);-)
