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.

People shouldn't be allowed to buy up tickets that they aren't going to use. Why do I have to pay $30+ for a $15 ticket.

The website seems legit, a lot of service fees. I haven't seen the show yet. So far so good. Will update, after I got the ticket.

The worst website
October 23, 2017

Purchase $220 for a $72 seat.
When I receive my ticket I find it is different from my selection. It has different zone and seat number. They said my zone is filled and give me a comparable seat. But which is far away and has much lower price as I original purchase.
Never never never use this website!

Quick Process!
October 23, 2017

I found the search and checkout processes easy to navigate and very user friendly. I found exactly what I was looking for and fast. The only downside was the 12.50 service fee (per ticket) with an additional 7.50 delivery charge (for electronic tickets that I downloaded and printed myself.) Ultimately I paid almost as much in fees (32.50) as I paid for one ticket (42.00). Besides that one negative, I had a great experience with this website and overall process!

Great

This process is a little aggravating and kind of confusing. Writing a review and registering for this seems unecessary to confirm my order.

The service and delivery of the tickets was very fast and efficient. The fees seemed a little much though.

$148 dollars for a $35.00 ticket is a bit extreme. Will not be using this service ever again. Save your money and go directly to the Box Office or hell you would be better off going to craigslist.

$112 tickets cost $150! Damn, that is better than water to wine! No need to service charge the customer so he/she will not come back. Making a profit is one thing, but getting sooooooo greedy is disgusting. Showf

Over budget
October 23, 2017

The site was very user friendly. However, I bought 4 tickets that should of come out to $124.00 and in the end they added on another $45.34 for fees and services that are not explained and show up at confirmation.

Got ripped off!
October 22, 2017

Thought this was ticket master that I was doing business with! Very misleading and charged extra money besides ticket cost. Concert postponed so they wouldn't refund my money. Hopefully I'll be able to attend the later date but if not then lost a lot of money. Very SHADY!

Probably would have gone to Hult Center first to buy tickets. I did not realize that the price of the tickets would be double the actual ticket price. Next time I will check with the Hult Center directly prior to purchasing the tickets.
