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.

I got the tickets I wanted on line, but almost $60.00 in surcharge and convenience fee's is very steep.

The overall experience was great. I really love it. But the extra charges are a little bit high. I bought 4 tickets without problems. Check your app, doesnt work.

Good service. Said I had to use 100 characters in this review, yes the very review you are now reading. These extra sentences are my attempt to use the requisite 100 characters. I believe I have achieved my goal of using 100 characters. Yep, pretty sure I did. OK that's about it, keep it real. Yeaaaaahhhhhh. Whatever's clever

False advertising
June 11, 2017

So I bought 2 tickets to 'Futures: Nobody safe tour' on 6/10/2017. Worst Idea ever. So the FIRST time I order 2 tickets off this website for this concert cost me $175.32 after fees. Tickets were only $62 a piece, then after my bank account is charged that $175, they send an email about 10 minutes saying they cancelled my order for 'technical issues' on my Bank of America debit card. Also said it will be 5-7 business days in the email for money to be returned to my account. So I call the 800 number for OnlineCityTickets.com and speak with a customer service agent, get a SECOND order for 2 tickets at $38 a piece and this CS agent runs the same card of mine, charges my card and said a link will be available in my email for instant ticket downloads. So 30 minutes after the concert starts I am still waiting for a link. I don't get one until a new customer service person calls and said I have a link to a website where I need to take a picture of my Drivers License, Debit Card and sign a bunch of stuff. So I do all that and still get no response from this company via email or phone call. 3 hours after the concert starts, I finally get a phone call saying I am being refunded my money. So they ran my card for $250, got no tickets, missed the concert and now have to wait another week for funds to be returned to me. I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THIS SITE TO NO ONE. Awful advertising, customer service and I will never buy tickets from OnlineCityTickets.com!

OK
June 11, 2017

It was quick and easy however, I don't like that I can not choice my specific seats in the section I want nor can I see what seats are available when you hover over each section. I wanted isle seats and didn't get them because I only had the option to choose the section I wanted.

Expensive
June 11, 2017

The overall experience was good. That said, charging a 25% mark up for a service that you have no choice but to utilize is insane and unfair to your customers.

Bought 3 tickets to Phantom of the Opera in Vancouver for myself and my two younger sons. The tickets were each $50.00. Well... by the time it was all said and done their service fees were almost the price of the ticket... FOR EACH TICKET! Also, they hide little writing to let you know that the tickets are in USD despite sending me a message that the sale price was in the agreed to Canadian dollars. Brutal company. I've been e-mailing them back and forth for a few days and they keep relying on the "All Sales Final" line. Do yourself a favour and go buy tickets elsewhere. I don't know how these people are still in business... I'm sure I'll enjoy the show regardless but it's a shame these folks are operating in the manner they are. 1 star is too much for OnlineCityTickets.

Easy and accessable
June 11, 2017

I found the process easy - even for me as a first time user - and I would certainly use this again. The instructions were easy to follow, the review was easily completed and have my tickets already so I am most pleased with online city tickets

I have no problem paying a service fee for the convenience of getting tickets online. But 30% is outrageous and just plain profiteering. That's wrong. I also blame the venues that refuse to even sell tickets at their own box office any more. They're obviously getting a cut of the service fees that these sites are charging. Sad...
