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.

Deception until the end
February 12, 2017

I live 800 miles from Chicago and the Show "Hamilton", so we wanted everything completed well in advance. For my daughters birthday, I purchased 2 tickets thinking they were good seats. It wasn't until the tickets arrived, did we find out there was an "obstructed view" disclaimer on the tickets. I called the theater to find out for that row, the balcony blocks 25% of the upper stage, and we might have to look around a pole. I am in the middle of fighting it through my credit card company. Onlinecitytickets stated in their defense "All purchase details were provided to the customer before checking out". The view obstruction was not stated until the tickets arrived. I have since purchased great tickets from Ticket Masters. The deceptive practices of Onlinecitytickets I have read from this site, and my own experience deserve a Class Action Lawsuit. The sad part is "they would only open up again under a new name". Art from Kansas

I order 2 tickets and Flash seats was my only delivery option. I ordered 2 more tickets to the same event (my latest order) and UPS was a delivery option. Why the difference. I have never used Flash seats before and am concerned about when I will receive those tickets and will they show up in my account.

Never got tickets before event started. First, call was told to wait the info should arrive in a few minutes. Second time I called, was on hold for 30 minutes, before they came back on the line. Then they say they reached the seller and he will e-mail me the tickets in 10-15 minutes. By this time we don't have enough time to drive to the venue let alone wait to receive the e-tickets. Don't waste your time using Online City Tickets, as we have wasted a half of day trying to get tickets and still not going to the Lion King. Also, still waiting for my cancellation email.

False accounting
February 12, 2017

When purchasing the tickets the websit charged 150 including service fees etc. When I checked my bank account it said that I paid over 190 for them. Poor service, not recommended for any of the hidden fees accociated with your web site.

Online City Tickets
February 11, 2017

I ordered 3 tickets in section 104 row x and was sent section 128 row y. When I called to resolve it, the "manager" who answered told me his code was fine, that I should be happy with my tickets, that I couldn't speak with someone else, and I was just out of luck. When I asked for a resolutiin, he told me I should be more careful when ordering online.

Tickets to Nickleback
February 13, 2017

Thank you for providing a easy and painless experience to buying concert tickets. This is a gift for my sons graduation... we had tickets when they cancelled last time so it is a late gift but Nickleback is his favorite and we are so excited he gets to experience a concert at Redrocks! Thank you!
