Service fees are to high
March 11, 2018

Somewhat satisfied, prices are kind of high. I think service fees should be reduced. I like that we can get tickets easily but keeping customers you should lower service fees

No tickets
March 9, 2018

I ordered and paid for four expensive Bruins tickets for 3/31. When I clicked on a link, to receive the tickets from a third party, the link was no longer valid.

Very unreliable.
March 9, 2018

During the day of the event the tickets I purchased wouldn't show up on the day of the event, causing me to miss the event.

Please Explain
March 7, 2018
Updated review

To respond to Kayla, here is the text of the only email I received:

"Hi Michael,
Your order for (event) is pending confirmation. Well email you with an update shortly."

What about that email suggests I should, as you say, "get right back on and try again for some tickets"?

Would I have been able to cancel the original order to assure I wouldn't be charged twice? No, correct?

Does seatgeek think 24 hours constitutes "shortly"?

What do you think I could have done differently here, Kayla, recognizing that I can't know you sell the same tickets twice on occasion?

They sold the same tickets twice
March 6, 2018
Previous review

I purchased tickets for an event three days in advance. 24 hours later, I was told my tickets were not available. The supervisor, who wouldn't give me his real name but asked to be called "JP", first told me that the seller had the option to not approve the sale within in 24 hours. To clarify the penalty the seller would receive, I was told none. When I told JP that it is silly the seller is given the chance the sell the tickets for higher elsewhere for 24 hours, the story then changed to the seller received two purchase offers for the tickets and didn't accept mine. JP said SeatGeek saw no flaw in selling the same tickets twice and not informing me for 24 hours that I would not be receiving the tickets. Their systems essentially allows multiple buyers to buy the same tickets with no recourse for the buyer who doesn't receive tickets.

I asked that they buy me similar tickets, which had risen $15 per ticket. SeatGeek chose to not resolve the dispute for $65. I will never use their service again.

Love the SeatGeek App!
March 6, 2018

It was easy to find and pay for tickets. I also liked the e-tickets. Made things so easy, because we were traveling and didn't need to worry about printing tickets.

We purchased instant tickets about 8 minutes prior to kickoff for a game. Online it said we would have the tickets in about 2 minutes. We didn't end up getting them until about 15 minutes later so we missed the first 10 minutes of the game before arriving at our seats. This is how we purchase a lot of our tickets for these soccer games and I'm not sure if I can trust SeatGeek to deliver on time.

Awesome concept!

My boyfriend lives in the Fort Lauderdale area and I was visiting him for the weekend from NYC. We wanted to go to a Heat game because we both enjoy NBA basketball. I was so pleased with the ticket prices, the game was a blast!

Failure
March 5, 2018

I used your service to buy Seattle Sounders tickets on Sunday, and to manage my season tickets the day before. As well as general flakiness on the website during this purchase process, your app failed completely on the day of the game, preventing myself and thousands of others from using those tickets to access the game (staff were forced to just left ticket holders on without proof, as I'm sure you're aware). Anyway, was a very poor experience that we're hoping won't be repeated any time soon.
