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 have not received my order...
Please. Respond as.to where my tickets are...
Thanks
It was so simple and fast!. I will continue being a customer.and also cheaper then other sites I went to
I am very pleased with OnlineCityTckets. I have ordered tickets with them before. I have told all my friends about this website too. Keep up the good work.
This site was so easy to order from and the tickets arrived very quickly. Excellent! I am very pleased with this service.
$100 in fees is obsurd, but as my husband puts it... "it IS NY"
However my argument is $7.50 download fee...? IT COSTS NOTHING TO DOWNLOAD SOMETHING!
The O. N. L. Y reason I chose this site was because it offered insurance
I'm super upset at first cause on last Sunday I order 2 tickets of the weekend in Ottawa, how is possible I got cancelled when I heading to Ottawa. But this time is fine fast and super easy love it
Great seats. The choices were great, it had every price range. I chose seats that came with VIP access. You can also buy parking separately if you'd like. Great service!
When you are all done with entering your info, they finally mention outrageous service fees. It was much over $100.00 for 2 tickets, and of course another convenience fee for the instant download, which is not an option.
Great experience online purchase for this order I believe it is really amazing!
Easy to use and helpful. Can't wait to go see Kendrick Lamar. About to go to Las Vegas for the first time also.
My husband ordered tickets for us to celebrate our anniversary. He did not realize that he was not ordering from ticket master. Since this was a surprise for me, I had no idea how he got the tickets. Our seats were in the nosebleed section, literally the next to last row. When I saw our ticket printout and compared the receipt, I realized that he had bought from this group and basically paid about quadruple the seat value. You should be ashamed of yourself for taking advantage of people in this way. My husband is very generous and good hearted and wanted to surprise me with a trip to the theatre because I love to go. Now every time I think about this show, I will remember the way we were cheated instead of an anniversary celebration
It took a second to get my tickets it was fast. Hopefully they are not fake Tickets. But I already check them multiple times so just really excited to watch the play.
Going to phantom of the opera. When I looked it up recently on ticketmaster. Tickets range from 35 nose bleed seats to 140 dollars for premium seats. This stupid money gouger pos site charged me almost 300 dollars for seats that should've been 160 max. Never again will I go to this site. Ticketmaster only from now on. Grr so infuriated with this high profit making companies.
Found what I wanted. Ordered. Received super fast! So far so good and hoping that the day of the show the tickets are all good to go!
Waiting to receive my tickets before i prejudge. A little hard to review something until i have the goods in hand
I purchased concert tickets. And was amazed at the ease of navigation throughout the website. This was my first time, but certainly will not be my last. I am very happy with how user friendly the site was. Super easy to use. A++++
Great service! Got my tickets in less than 24 hours! Definitely will use them again for future tickets.
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);-)
