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.

I got tricked into buying tickets that weren't even on sale to the public yet. They charged 3 times the face price and would not let me cancel the order. Make sure this doesn't happen to you and never use this sit.

Took about a day to receive it on the FlashSeats app and it was so convenient! Beats having to wait for a print copy in the mail.

Everything else is fine, but why is the convenience charge over $10 per ticket? That is a horrendous amount of money. That comes up to the price of a fourth ticket if you purchase three tickets as I did. I cannot use this service again.

Good purchase, high fees
February 14, 2017

Quick to find tickets when I couldn't find on official website. Easy to navigate, cheaper price. However Service Fee and fee for emailing the tickets to me equated to more than 30% of ticket price.

February 14, 2017

The convenience fee of 78$ per ticket was ridiculous, if it wasn't as high i would have recommended it to other people but 150$ loss on purchasing tickets is absurd.

I purchased 2 tickets accidently from this online company and I thought I was in Ticket master website for Garth Brooks on Feb 19. The tickets were advertised at about 250.00 each. When I got the confirmation it stated $737.55 Usd which ended up over 900.00 CDN. They told me I would not get my tickets emailed to me until Feb 17. Now they are telling me the 18th. The worst is they will not give me a seat #. I have no idea where we are sitting. I do not live in that city so will have to travel without the tickets and nowhere to print them off. This company (if you want to call it that) are a rip off. Do I travel this weekend and hope I actually will get my tickets? I have emailed them and now I am on ignore.

Do. Better.
February 14, 2017

I felt very frustrated, as I was filling out my information on the seats I wanted someone "bought" them as I was filling out my credit card info, so I probably missed out on even better seats while I was apparently wasting my time.
If someone is filling their stuff out the ticket should be held for like 3 minutes like ticket master does

Good seats selection and easy to navigate the site. The only negative is the high cost for processing order per person.

Super fast and easy. They offered floor plans in order to decide where to sit. The prices are perfect, and the site was super helpful and descriptive.
