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.

Quick service
June 14, 2017

Pretty easy site to navigate, access to good/great seats; however, great seats only available in 2 and 4 seat selections. Need to have a 1 seat option available.

Easy Peasy
June 14, 2017

Easy ordering and quick return of the instant download tickets. I would like to see the cost of processing an instant download be less money but I guess you pay for speed.

First off, I called the customer service number provided and spent 10 minutes listening to different promotional advertisements. Then once I finally got to the menu, the recording told me 'goodbye'. The printable order confirmation page says I will receive the tickets through electronic download, I checked my junk mail only to receive an email asking if I received my order. (I have not). Then at the bottom of the page it says I will get my tickets shipped to me. (So which one is it?!?) I will not totally dismiss OnlineCityTickets just yet if I do receive them in the mail within the next four days, but so far it has been somewhat of an irritating/stressful experience.

While you are focusing on giving them the correct information to take your money, make sure you look to the left because you will be paying them A $15 SERVICE FEE! PER TICKET! I PROMISE YOU WILL FIND CHEAPER TICKETS THAN THIS PLACE. JUST KEEP LOOKING! Under no circumstances will they refund your money either. The worse customer service I have ever had. DO NOT GET TICKETS HERE! Oh and PS. They even charge you a fee to download your tickets! Hard to push those "send" keys nowadays I guess!

I purchased tickets in December to an event scheduled for June. Apparently the seller has some control issue and only wants to send tickets TWO days before the concert and customer service can only say "we are monitoring the situation". I have absolutely no trust that I will actually get tickets to this event that has been sold out for months. Tickets are released way before two days. Why not just send the tickets to the buyer as soon as they are available.!

Online City Tickets is ridiculous. I purchased tickets to a show in Boston which had the highest service fees I've EVER seen -- the fees alone were 30% of the cost of my tickets. I realized that I purchased them on the wrong date just moments after I completed the transaction. I tried talking to service reps both online and on the phone and they didn't even want to listen to what I had to say. I understand that there's a "no refund policy" but I just wanted to cancel the transaction for that date and purchase tickets on another date. Your company would still be getting my money. I'm certain there isn't "nothing we can do." Now you have a pissed-off customer telling others about my experience with you when the resolution could have been much simpler. Never order from OCT.

Not Trustable
June 13, 2017

These folks are a resale marketplace which means they buy tickets earlier and then resale with an extra 60$(USD) service fee per ticket, That's insane guys!. If they stop buying earlier we can still buy those tickets from the official seller. No, no, no, I am not going to help this company make money out of nothing.
