VividSeats Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is significantly marred by numerous customer complaints regarding service reliability and transparency. Many users report frustrations with receiving incorrect tickets, unexpected charges, and inadequate customer support, often describing the service as untrustworthy and dismissive. While some customers have noted positive interactions with individual representatives, these instances are overshadowed by a pervasive sentiment of dissatisfaction and confusion throughout the purchasing process. The consistent issues with order confirmation and refund policies highlight a need for major improvements in customer service practices to enhance trust and user experience.

Dontay was AMAZING! He was very attentive and had me send him screenshots of issues I was having on the app. He went above and beyond and made my first purchase with Vivid Seats the best it could be. I will be a repeat customer. Thanks Dontay! GO PACK GO!

Very accommodating
September 21, 2019

I was purchasing a parking pass for a college football game. The shipping method wouldn't guarantee that the pass would get to me before we leave for the game. Therefore, the agent (Justin) had the parking pass shipped instead to a UPS store close to the game. He was very friendly and helpful.

Ryne was knowledgeable and very easy to work with. I did not purchase tickets on my first call with him as I wanted to do a bit more research. He answer all questions that I had and simply asked that I call him back if I had any more questions and/or if I wanted to make a purchase. Would wholeheartedly recommend him. Joe
