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.

This is so convenient, how could you not use this service! Sorry I didn't wait before ordering so I could have benefited from the 20.00 discount.:-(

Why do I pay extra and work extra when the sites aren't even properly linked, properly store my information, or convenient? As soon as an alternative presents itself, I look forward to taking my business anywhere but here.

I purchased two tickets to the Eagles concert in Portland, OR for May 5,2018. The concert was cancelled and rescheduled for May 22. However, I cannot attend the concert on the 22nd.

I talked to Online City Tickets about a refund as all the local radio stations said you can get a full refund if you can't make the concert. However, Online City Tickets would NOT refund my tickets.

I paid $686.10 for these tickets, $158 in fees to Online City Tickets. I was completely shocked at the fees that they charged me and these fees apparently covered nothing.

I feel ripped off by this company and would never use them again for any online ticket purchases.

I compared your offering of seats to another website that I normally use - and they only offered floor seating. I wanted to be in the upper level to be able to actually see the stage from the middle of the auditorium. I am pleased that I got the front row in the middle and at a good price! Thank you - and I also purchased the ticket insurance that was not available from the other website. So I feel very comfortable with my purchase.

Thanks to Caesar in customer service, finally got tickets on order via phone call, Thanks.

The gist of the problem is after jumping through all the hoops to supply the require information, I constantly received an error of in correct number of digits (10) in my phone number. Let me assure you that the full 10 digits were entered.

This caused me to give up ordering on line, and made it necessary to call in the order. Also, running against the clock in order to purchase tickets on line is not a very friendly attitude.

At this point, I think whoever wrote the code for your program should be held accountable. At the very least they should be informed that more than a beta test of the system should be performed. Even the very best of systems need to be tested against real world events that can cause errors such as this one to be addressed quickly.

I hope you will take this as constructive criticism as it is meant to be so.

Thanks,

Things went fairly well but you need to be able to change shipping address from billing address. I'm in the process of moving & my billing address is different from actual at least until Monday.

Giving a 5 rating because it was a great transaction, smooth - fees are crazy. However, I found two good seats that cost less than buying on ticketmaster, and helped out someone who could not go to the show and not lose out on a lot of money.

Ticket prices rose exponentially! In a matter of 4-5 hours the prices escalated. I do not understand this policy.

Think that is it completely ridiculous that i pay for tickets than i have to pay a service fee than another fee to get my tickets electronic to me. You are out to get every dime from people that just want to go out amd enjoy an evening with kids.
