I used their service for a Christmas event and the tickets never received them so contacted them and was assured that I would receive the tickets before the event. Blamed the delay on their vendor? Day before event I finally had to call to find out they could not fill my order after telling me all week they would and of course taking my money. Unfortunately now I cant find tickets anywhere because they are sold out. I have never had this happen with StubHub or Vivid or any other service.

Process is easy enough.
December 21, 2019

I'm happy that I received discounted prices on the tix, however your fees added to those prices brought the price right back up. Disappointing!

Hi Elaine,

Thanks for the review. We're happy to know you had an easy time buying tickets with us!

We know that fees are the worst part of buying tickets, but we try to keep our fees as low as possible to ensure our customers get a good deal. We use the fees we get to improve our platform, maintain our marketplace, employ our customer service team, and such.

Although fees will always be there, we still care about having the best prices. That's why we offer a price match. If you find the tickets cheaper on another secondary marketplace, we will give you a promo code for 110% of the difference!

Warmly,
SeatGeek CX Team

Great
December 20, 2019

It was easy and quick, with decent pricing. I had a problem with another company where they canceled my order because the even was supposedly canceled when it's clearly not. I hope that doesn't happen hear. If all goes well then yes, my experience was great!

Easy to use but high fees
December 20, 2019

Site is intuitive and easy to use but fees came in at 33+% of the ticket price, that seems pretty steep to me.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for taking the time to write in. Fees are the worst part of buying tickets, there's no denying it. We try to keep our fees to no more than 20% whenever possible, but there are factors that can cause fees to end up higher. We use the fees we get to improve our platform, maintain our marketplace, employ our customer service team, and such.

While fees are always going to be necessary, we do try to make sure our prices are the best out there. That's why we offer a price match. If you find the tickets cheaper on another secondary marketplace, we will give you a promo code for 110% of the difference!

Best wishes,

Hi Charlie,

We fully understand that the verification process may be daunting, but we do have it there for a good reason. The main reason for this is to prevent bots or other intruders from pretending to be people they are not and create or use accounts of other people. This is a security measure to assure protection of these bots making mass accounts. The good news is that now that the account is made and verified you will not have to go through that process again!

Hope you have a great time at the game!

Warm Regards,

SeatGeek CX Team

I ordered tickets and they were delivered electronically in the time frame described at the time of purchase. Hopefully there will be no problems in using the tickets to gain access to the event once we arrive.

Damn these fees are high
December 20, 2019

Sucks when they have you over a barrel to do what you want. There should be a base fee and not have it on a sliding scale depending on the price of the ticket. Outrageous but necessary at times.

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for the feedback. We do understand that fees are the worst part of the ticket buying experience. While in most cases we try to keep our fees no more then 20%, due to our partnership with the NFL there are factors that can cause fees to end up higher then that. We do use the fees we get to improve our platform, employ our customer service team, and such.

While fees are not something we can remove, we do try to do things to at least keep our prices the best out there. One of these is price match. If you find the tickets cheaper on another service, we will give you a promo code for 110% of the difference. At least assuring we have the best price for you.

Warm Regards,

Love the fact that seller fees are included in price up front so you can better gauge how much you're paying before checkout.

BEST CONCERT EXPERIENCE!
December 16, 2019

We had originally bought tickets that we were disappointed with when we got there. I looked online and found GROUND SEATS at very low. I instantly purchased them and was emailed them right away. We were showed our new seats and were in disbelief how close we ended up getting. It was the best impulsive buy Ive ever made!
