OnlineCityTickets Reviews Summary

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.

Easy to maneuver
July 25, 2017

This website is simple to use and has an enormous amount of concerts listed. My only complaint is the outrageous service charges per ticket. I purchased 2 tickets and the service charges were over $150.00. Ridiculous!

I purchased 2 tickets for Book of Mormon at the Kennedy Center. I quickly realized that I purchased via third party and emailed them less than an hour after noticing my mistake, they never replied, ever. I tried to call but their system kept leading me to a dead end and would simply end the call. It cost me $140 MORE than had I purchased through the direct site. I strongly warn everyone to avoid this site unless absolutely last resort. I'm the sucker this time but will NEVER do this again.

The counting crows and matchbox20 concert on Friday night got postponed to the following Tuesday without the counting crows. Clearly not great and the host of the events is issuing refunds. But if you bought your tickets through 'online city tickets' then you don't get a refund according to their terms of service. So who is getting the refunds and where does all that cash go? Is it possible that 'online city tickets' is collecting the refunds and not passing them into customers? Mmmm?

Very easy and fast

Received the tickets within minutes. Very easy! In fact, the longest part of the process was putting the ink cartridges in my printer as it was out of ink!

Waiting
July 24, 2017

The only reason I'm not giving 5 is because I'm waiting for the event to happen to make sure these are legit tickets. Other than that love how easy it was to purchase!

Crooks
July 24, 2017

Bought Friday night Matchbox Twenty and Counting Crows tickets. They cancelled the show as we were parking. They "rescheduled" the event on Tuesday without Counting Crows. Not the same event. We paid for Matchbox Twenty and Counting Crows and the venue substituted the show with just Matchbox Twenty.

Spoke with Eva and extension 2594. What a $#*!. I'm sure she was reading from a script but she kept saying "we see this as a cancelled and rescheduled event, hence no refunds. Not the same event! It's not like Counting Crows is some scrub garage band that doesn't even have a demo CD.

I will never give OnlineCityTickets another penny of my money and rest assured, I will tell anyone who will listen about the crappy service and weak unilateral, self-serving decisions they make that will potentially screw their customers.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS JUNK COMPANY!

Legit but expensive
July 24, 2017

When I looked up the amphitheater to buy tickets for a concert I was automatically directed to Online city tickets website which looked a lot the venue website. I quickly ordered the tickets as I knew they would go fast. The person selling me the tickets was friendly but talked very fast. He did explain everything about the tickets and when they would be delivered. My total cost was more than double what I would have paid if I bought them directly from the venue. After buying them what I didn't like was the idea that I had to wait until two days before the show before my e-tickets were delivered. I didn't have a good feeling about my purchase and looked up a bunch of articles about ticket resellers. Not good. So I stressed about it right up until the day of the show. Iworried about arriving at the concert which I invited my sis and her husband to come join us and getting turned away because our tickets were not valid. On the morning my tickets were to be delivered they were there by mid morning without any calling or anything so that was a good sign, they were easy to print and fortunately they were valid so no problems. So all in all they were up front about everything and did deliver on time with valid tickets. But I will know better next time and be sure I go through the venue or artist to get a better deal. You just have to get on it right away because companies like these buy up all the tickets right away so they can sell them for twice the price. I didn't get scammed but it's not worth the stress
