The overall reputation of the company is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to issues with ticket delivery, refund policies, and customer service responsiveness. Many customers report being charged exorbitant fees, receiving invalid tickets, and facing unresponsive support channels, leading to frustrations and claims of being scammed. While some customers appreciate the variety of events offered, the overwhelming sentiment reflects a lack of trust and reliability. The company's rigid policies regarding refunds, particularly for postponed events, further exacerbate negative perceptions, suggesting a need for improved customer service and clearer communication.

In my opinion, buy somewhere else. I spent almost a thousand dollars and nowhere did it say the seats were obstructed view until after purchase. They will not help you in any way. The site did not let me review my tickets either, wish I hadn't bought from PnlineCityTickets.
The overall shopping experience seems to have gone okay, but the poor UA on mobile made the site not look reputable at first. I appreciate the effort to include a confirmation email and survey, but as the tickets could have possibly shipped already for me to verify the order, it's pretty hollow. Perhaps it would be better to cross reference the date tickets are supposed to ship with each order and send a confirmation email around that date.
Was upset with the hidden fees otherwise I was pleased with site and would possibly use it agin and have others use it
Great service easy to process rating 5 first time using the site but great experience at the moment I would use this sight again weighting on tickets to process besides that no hassles easy to use self explanatory calling 1800 number was simple pleasant to talk to answered all my questions overall would recommend to any one looking for tickets to an event had what I was looking for would recommend over eBay Craigslist etc weighting on tickets but definitely worth the weight got what I was looking for at a good price wouldn't think twice on buying tickets from online city tickets
Great prices, trustworthy and super duper easy to get the tickets! The tickets were emailed to me within 15 minutes of purchase, even though the website said tickets would be emailed days before the concert! Perfect!
It was very easy received tickets in minutes, the extra HIGH service fee is not displayed at all until the end my regret is that i didn't read the reviews I hope I haven't wasted money... never again
The site setup is user-friendly, making the purchasing of the tickets for this upcoming event easy and pain free.
I received my tickets within 10 minutes of ordering. However, the service fee was quite steep and wasn't displayed up front but rather at the review of the order.
I was very pleased with how quickly and easily I found tickets for a show that I've been trying to see for several years.
The process was very convenient and easy! The service charge was a little high. I like the fact that I will receive the tickets by mail.
Great! Got the email super quick can't wait to get the tickets soon! I've used this site before and was very pleased with it so I'm looking forward for this experience
Needed tickets at the last minute. Able to get good seats. Will tell friends to purchase tickets from OnlineCityTickets. Very reliable company.
Quick and easy to understand and check out will us again in the future most certainly. Thanks very much for the system.
Easy access to great seats, easy to use and good graphics with clear instructions.
Looking forward to a great concert. Only issue is ticket was issues with someone elses name.
Not sure yet didn't get the tickets. I ordered before and it was easy.Im hoping it goes threw fast but right now it's going pretty slow. Still not working
I would prefer to have paper tickets in hand. My daughter and I went to a concert this past May and she had tickets on her phone and they wouldn't process at the gate. It was a big pain in the neck. I don't want to go through that again.

Ordered tickets for Foreigner when tickets scanned at gate were told someone else had already used the tickets. We were then told to go to the main gate which had the box office. We found out the tickets were over sold that only the first ticket holder was admitted. After spending 120 dollars on tickets we were given 2 tickets by the box office which were not as good as what we originally bought. Beware when using this site when you try to call all that you get is a recording.
Super quick and Easy to understand and check out. Will use again in the future most certainly. A+ would reccomend
Answer: In my case, they sent e-mail that the tickets would be forthcoming. When I failed to receive them the week before the concert, per e-mail download as promised, I called their #, the person on the other end told me that it was will-call at the box-office with the copy of the e-mail I needed to bring. The box office told me that as a 2nd line seller, they did not keep them there. When I called to ask why they did this to me and demanded re-imbursal, they sent the tickets per e-mail download THE DAY AFTER THE CONCERT. They tried to cover their tracks with the credit card company, the problem for them was that the time stamp of their sending the tickets reflected the day after the concert. So essentially, they are not even competent as rip-off artists.
Answer: So sorry to hear you have been conned by this outfit. Apparently sometimes they DO send valid tickets, so I hope you are one of the lucky ones. I suggest you tell your credit card company (by phone and IN WRITING) that you are disputing this charge. Also tell everyone you know to avoid this rip-off company. I know this doesnt help you now, but in the future buy tickets only from Ticketmaster (I've never had a problem with them). Good luck.
Answer: I couldn't even open the download so I called the number and all I got was an answering system to send email and I did but no reply from them so the next day a call about 50 times until I got someone. After getting transferred to 3 different people and waiting about an hour for the supervisor the guy told me no refunds are allowed but money is 100% guarantee if it doesn't work at the time of the event. So I'm praying to God they are good the event isn't until the end of November
Answer: They are scoundrels. I know where their office is and went by there recently. I am laying out a plan.
Answer: If you have already purchased your tickets from this outfit, good luck. They sent me tickets for a concert in Tennessee and I asked for and live in Florida. They said it was MY mistake and that I asked for TN. They supposedly tried to resell the tickets and couldn't so I was out $300.00 for two tickets. They have something like 130 complaints and are a scam outfit. Next time order elsewhere and good luck with these tickets.
Answer: I just cancelled my order because they never sent the tickets. At least you got yours so maybe they will be okay. I would call the arena where the event will be and ask them how many issues they have had with this company. I emailed five times and they always sent an automated response back. Then, when I was in a meeting at work they finally called and the number just read, "33333" when they called me. No return phone number... very strange. They left a message to call them so I did immediately after my meeting (15 minutes)... the automated system was up and did not allow me to speak with a person. Thus far, I have never spoken to a real person when I call their number. I disputed the purchase, got my money back and bought tickets for much less at StubHub. I was surprised because my last tickets at Stubhub were kind of expensive... but these tickets (McCartney) were not too crazy expensive. Anyway, best of luck, and I would make a back up plan.
Answer: You will get your tickets, but they will likely have someone else's name printed on them. Worst of all, they will most likely not be honored at the gate/box office. My advice is to get a refund NOW and buy tickets from a reputable outlet like Ticketmaster. City Online are thieves and scammers. See my review about James Taylor concert in Norfolk, Virginia.
Answer: Contact the venue, give them all the details on the tickets received and verify if U will be able to legitimately use the tickets, considering the issues with this company that are so overwhelming. My experience reviewing all the people who describe their issues with them is that even if the tickets are usable, the overpayment is so excessive that it would have been better dealing with the regular ticket outlet for the venue.
Answer: Yes Ann, you will get your tickets. You just over paid by a HUGE amount... but other then that, the company is legit. They are just robbers the way they do it... thats all. Have a good time and yes, at least now you learned a lesson (like all of us on this site);-)
