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.

Alex did a great job. I was concerned about th price of the tickets and he did a great job with my transaction finding less expensive seats on the same level.

I spent an hour & a half trying to get these tickets to download. Finally a man at the ticket booth at Wrigley field printed tickets for me after the game had started. I have used several other ticket sites & never had problems like this. Will never buy tickets here again.

THANK YOU! :)
April 24, 2018

Knute was very helpful in finding me seats for the concert I've been saving up for, for months. He found me seats that were 13 rows closer than the one's I was looking at before and he saved me a little over $60 dollars for the first set I was going to buy. He listened to my concerns when I told him that I was trying to get the best seats I could because my mother recently in the last year had a retinal detachment in her eye that causes her not to sees well as she used to. I appreciate his patience and understanding when helping me with my order. Also, if anyone is trying to order tickets from this site I would advise you to call the representatives. It makes the process so much smoother even if you are not making a purchase that day and have to think about it. I can not thank Knute enough for the help that he provided me and I hope he is recognized for his amazing customer service. I also want to recognize Jay Rod for amazing customer service as well. He is the representative who I talked to a couple of weeks prior to purchasing the tickets. He talked me through the prices of the tickets and was giving me feedback for other customers that had bought tickets from this venue before. I unfortunately had to decline because I was not sure about the processing fees that needed to be added. I thank both of them for there outstanding work and recommend this site to anyone wanting to buy tickets for event! Thank you VividSeats! -B

I tried to buy tickets last night and the operator was rude and had no patience when trying to work with me and my questions. I told him never mind Ill csll back tomorrow. I got the feeling he gets credit for sales. Well I guess he lost this one. Sorry I did not get his name Aris was great!

Daniel was great
April 23, 2018

Had a snafu ordering on line so called customer service. The first guy who answered sounded like he fell out of bed to answer the phone. Needless to say he was of no help and disconnected me. Luckily when I called back I got Daniel. He was extremely professional and personable. He got my order with the discount quickly and easily. He answered all my questions. Before we hung up he again gave me his name and extension number which is 2732 in case he works on commission. He deserves it!

April 20, 2018

I purchased 3 Yankee tickets online without much trouble, but when I tried to purchase 2 more tickets there was quite some difficulty even though my payment information was the same. I did call vivid seats where a gentleman named John helped me complete my order. Thank you John!

Nick was helpful, informative and I would compliment him on his service. I bought tickets for a Yankees game and feel I got the best deal possible and am pleased with the company. I paid 12.00 less than the similar deal with stubhub
