Horrible
July 1, 2023

Two days before, they said I would have the tickets 2 hours before the performance (which is ridiculous). 3 hours before the show, got a text the tickets were no longer available. Paid for them 3 weeks previous. Ruined entire night. Horrible experience. Will never use again.

I stars
June 24, 2023

If I could I would leave a 0 star I called not even 30 minutes after purchasing the tickets because I found them cheaper at another website. I called to cancel them or get the difference back and the agent that helped be didn't even wanted to listen. So I called back the next day and they said I only had 2 hours to claim the price difference and that they need screen shots so I send them what I had and said they could do anything only give me 20.00 credit and the difference was 1477.00. I can't believe they have horrible customer service. I have all the screen shots of the time I called and conversation and they wouldn't validate that. As you could see the time I bought them the time I called and it was multiple times and that they are cheaper even on their website. And I have way more proof they were not willing to work with me.

Bought my son some tickets to a baseball game in 2020. The game was cancelled thanks to Covid-19. Gametime offered a full refund applied to my credit card or take a credit on the app. If I chose the credit on the app they would apply an additional 25%. Deal right, no brainer! Done apply the credit. What they failed to tell me is that if I didn't use it within two years I would loose it! Thought I'd buy ticks to tonight's game last knight and poof my credit is gone. Spoke with customer service they proceeded to tell me I was past due and my credit expired. No one ever reached out to tell me it was going to expire nor did they tell me at the time of refund or credit it had an expiration date! They're just scandalous. I asked to speak to a superior and was told she was the highest supervisor. I clearly assured her she had a supervisor and she's says well yes but not available. Have her call me I said. She says they don't have a phone! Again I assured her they have a phone! Well she said they don't take or make calls only email. Customer service would email me and then have me reply to said email and they would forward to supervisor! As far as I'm concerned they stole my money! Definitely would not recommend

They showed me a ticket price of $46. They hide $28 fee until purchase and then it's a trap. Illegal

I have used Gametime several times with out any issues. I recently purchased two tickets to take my nephew to his first Laker game in the VIP section during the playoffs (game 5). We arrive at the gate on game day and was told that I had purchased the game for game 6. We were then escorted out of the VIP section line. I think to myself what a major mistake I had made and how embarrassed my nephew and I were. I go ahead and purchase tickets at the box office since we are already there and since Crypto.com arena said I had tickets for game 6 we would return for that game as well. Game day arrives for game 6 and 2 hours before the game I receive an email that my tickets were transferred to and unknown email. I called Gametime and they told me there is nothing they can do and will have to investigate. Being embarrassed and now depressed that we will miss this game where the Lakers beat the warriors in game 6 our hearts just dropped. We literally drove 2 hours for nothing for the 2nd time. I didn't receive any phone call or email for a couple weeks. I receive the refund 3 weeks later with no explanation at all. Absolutely the worst game experience and support service I have ever encountered.

FAKE GAME tickets!
June 9, 2023

Are there no good people left in the world?! These people advertised a FAKE game! Thankfully I did not buy tickets when I noticed what should have been like $10/ticket for my family of 4 to a minor league local baseball game they were not only charging $17/ticket, but then tacking on an additional $14/ticket for "fees". I wasn't about to pay $116 for tickets that have always been about $40 for 4 tickets. So, I went to the sites for the minor league teams to buy tickets there just to find out they were both playing AWAY games that night! Screenshots below...I reported them to the BBB, so I can hopefully save others from being victims of this so-called company. Hopefully they end up being cell mates with Elizabeth Holmes.

My brother buys tickets on Gametime often for concerts and sporting events. I decided to give them a try since my brother had such good luck on the APP.

I purchased one concert ticket. I followed the instructions to accept the ticket (I'm a very tech savvy person), but when the ticket showed up in my account, it showed up as already claimed by someone else and invalid. How this was possible, I have no clue, but it happened.

My first reaction was that I was accidentally sent a ticket that had previously sold. I figured it would be an easy fix upon contacting Gametime customer service. NOPE. To make a long story short, they told me that the ticket wasn't valid because I WAS THE ONE who transferred the ticket and that there was nothing they could do to help me. How would they know if I transferred the tickets myself? They don't have access to my Ticketmaster account.

I absolutely did not transfer the tickets, and none of my accounts have been hacked. I was either a victim of a scam by the seller or Gametime is ran by complete idiots who do not want to own up to their mistakes. Either way, it's bad!

Purchase tickets at your own risk. If there is a problem, they will not protect you.

Would give 0 stars if I could. Account was hacked and someone purchased $1072 in tickets on my debit card in another state. Was told all ticket sales are final even if I didn't purchase them. Their advise was to accept the tickets and try and resell them to get my money back. Got into the account and there was a new York number attached to it...not my number. Gametime is a joke and does not protect their customers from scammers. Be careful if you use them

They tell you that you should buy them and have them delivered to you immediately so you. It's a load of BS...They charged my credit card quickly and I was expecting the tickets directly to my email address. I had completely setup my profile including my credit card info and they were bombarding me with promo emails so I know they had everything the needed to send me my tickets. My friend & I were waiting outside the venue and I finally received an email stating that it was a TRANSFER email and NOT TICKETS! I had to click on another link to go to a TRANSFER screen where it forced me to enter either the email addresses or phone numbers of my guests! The system then proceeded to enter bogue phone numbers as I was entering them with no way to correct. I tried the CHAT LINE for questions and they wanted me to take screen shots of my tickets which I hadn't received! Later I received an email from the venue making me setup an account with them so I could get my tickets and of course their web page was NONRESPONSIVE. I don't know why I had to TRANSFR MY TICKETS and why they wouldn't just send them to my email/phone so we could enter the venue. We had to purchase additional tickets and once inside one of my guests received a notice for 2 tickets for some reason and then was told he had to get a TICKETMASTER account in order to get delivery of the tickets! Now you want my CREDIT CARD charge as proof of purchase...are you kidding me? What sort of BS is this?

I bought tickets 2 months ago for the Toronto Blue Jay's home opener. 2 days before the game my tickets still had not arrived. Many emails and phone calls and still nothing. 5 hours before the game and still nothing! Customer service/supervisors refused to replace the tickets and kept telling me to wait for the seller to send the tickets. Finally 2 hours before the game and me threatening lawyers and they finally replaced my tickets! Should have been done 24 hours before! Will only deal with Stubhub and Ticketmaster from now on!

Absolute Joke.
April 11, 2023

Purchased tickets on April 5. Never received them despite contacting the company multiple times to report the issue. DO not use this service if you don't want to lose your money.

This site is a complete scam. I clicked on a ticket price of $55 for concert tickets and entered my information, the email that I got says congratulations and shows they charged me a total of $80 a ticket. There was no confirmation before checkout to confirm a price just a confirm of the number of tickets. They offer a price guarantee, and I have complted all their steps, emailed, called, and chatted via thier website to no resolve. I WANT A FULL REFUND

Gametime Price Guarantee We work around the clock to get you the best prices anywhere. If you do find a lower price elsewhere we'll add 110% of the difference between the price you found and our price in Gametime credit to your account. We're good like that. :) We just need a screenshot of both sources with a timestamp within two hours of your purchase (aka 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm). Also, the prices need to meet these conditions: The lower price you found must be for the same event, the same date(s), and the same section, row, and quantity that you purchased on Gametime. The lower price must be available to the general public. AARP rates, AAA rates, military rates, corporate rates, etc, do not apply. Prices offered through loyalty programs, through contests, or as a part of a travel package are not valid. Prices from apps or websites where you don't know the event until after booking, prices from websites/apps where you name your own price, and prices you must call in for are not valid. The lower price must still be available when your claim is submitted to *******@gametime.co The lower price you found must be the final checkout price, and be more than just a difference in taxes and fees. We do not guarantee against price changes on Gametime itself.

MY TICKETS ARE CHEAPER EVERYWHERE I WANT A REFUND ASAP

Do not use this company to purchase tickets. I was attempting to purchase tickets and kept receiving messages stating that my order did not go through. After numerous failed attempts I went onto Ticketmaster and successfully purchased tickets for the event. After 30minutes I got a confirmation email from Gametime saying I received tickets. I tried to return these tickets to Gametime stating that I had already purchased the same ones on Ticketmaster and they refused to refund or help out. Do not use them.

Invalid tickets!
March 12, 2023

GameTime app deducted money from my account the day I purchased tickets for an NBA game. They didn't release the tickets til 3 days before the game and I followed all instructions to transfer them to Ticketmaster. Imagine the absolute shock and complete disappointment on the day of the game when our tickets would not scan and said INVALID! We were denied entry to a game that we paid for! Game time did not honor their policy and their only resolution was that we purchase tickets directly from the venue until they take 1-2 weeks for investigation and then we would be reimbursed! Who has money to buy tickets TWICE?! We wasted our time, gas and work hours! My family was scammed and robbed of this experience and GameTime did nothing to make it right!

Purchased tickets to a hockey game, I do not live in a big city so had to travel for hrs with my family spend money on fuel, food and, hotels to get to the game. 6 hrs before the game started I recieved a text message saying that I could not have my tickets, sorry about my luck. No help to be had, zero f***s to give. So now I am out $1000 for a trip to a hockey game that I did not get to see! If I could give less than 1 star I a hundred percent would!

False advertising and won't refund!
February 26, 2023

I saw the event on Gametime listed as Xscape. Tickets. There was no other event name listed. I purchased the tickets believing I was buying tickets to an xscape concert. When the event occurred I learned the event was named something else and was a variety of artists with Xscape being one of them. However the group was not present at the event. And the event was callecd Scam and Jam. I called Gametime and indicated that it was not an xscape concert and they refused to acknowledge they had engaged in false and misleading advertisements and refused to refund my money.

On February 4th, I purchased tickets to a basketball game through Gametime. I purchased tickets to a Friday night game, and then proceed to purchase tickets to the next home game on the following Sunday. When I purchased the Sunday tickets, I never got a confirmation. They also asked for personal info that they didn't ask when I purchased the Friday night tickets. After a long time of not getting any emails or confirmations of purchase, I downloaded the app. I entered in my email many times and never got an email to be able to set up an account. Feeling like I had been scammed, I immediately tried to find a customer service number for Gametime. When I was finally able to find a phone number (I have never had to search so much for a customer service number), it wouldn't ring. When I called the next day, I was hung up on and got no where. I simply want the money back for the tickets. We still haven't received them, and apparently don't get them until 1 day before the first game? Unacceptable. When I finally got through to customer service they would not do anything for us, stating you only have 24 hours for a refund which wasn't stated anywhere. I would have been with in the 24 hours if they hadn't hung up on me. Or if their customer service phone number was way more accessible. After this experience, I looked up the company and they have about 30% 1 star reviews. Terrible customer service and a sketchy buying experience. My end goal here is to get my money back. I have disputed the charges with my bank in the hopes they will waive the charges. This company can not keep doing this to people. Having me be out $1760 is absolutely outrageous. I do not want the tickets nor do I even have them until March 23rd. Since they won't refund me I don't even have to opportunity to try and sell them.
