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.

Was skeptical at first - was able to purchase tickets to Paul McCartney for my Husband's 65th Birthday without being ripped off. Good seats and fair priced. Tickets should be in my name - top of ticket has someone else's name on them.
Can't wait to enjoy myself. The website was explained very well. Great service, got good response with everything.
Tickets were sold at a specific cost but then received tickets for the less then 1/2 price of what they actually cost. Contacted them and they state that I accepted their terms of sales and that we could pay above face value, but does not state DOUBLE. Total RIP OFF! Got seats for $79.95 and paid $147.00 for each ticket! Plus $130.00 service charge. REALLY!
It has been a smooth process ordering tickets to take my two sons the the final tour of Ringling Brothers circus at the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore this coming weekend.
Thanks,
George Klein
Very good value... I looked on the venue box office site and your ticket cost was actually cheaper than going through the venue box office.
When I bought tickets, the on line page did not tell me that I will have LIMITED VIEW TICKETS, it was in a corner of the next page of payments! I feel deceived
Only problem was it was hard to tell if I had actual seat numbers and unable to tell until I purchased tickets that it is the barstool area which in assuming is first come first serve
Great. Buying my tickets off this website was the most amazing day of my life and I am so thankful that I was given the opportunity to go onto the website and buy concert tickets for the future and Kodak black
Instantaneously received tickets to a venue thought would be sold out, thanks to onlinecity tickets my wife and I will be enjoying a great show. Thanks again. Very satisfied customer.
The tickets were emailed immediately and printed for use for admittance to the Tom Petty concert. I trust that will go well.
This was so easy I kept checking to see if I was done, couldn't believe it! Accuracy of product was 100%.
Seems to be good. Never bought tickets online before and had them delivered via email. Hope it all works out.
Quick and easy link from on-line amphitheater. Very helpful and very user friendly. Thanks for the follow up
If you're willing to be bent over and take it up the #&* for over priced tickets to old guys that can't sing as well as they could in their younger days, then yes, it's a great site to buy those tickets.
Cheapest tickets i could find... perfect timing for my trip to Denver. Plan on it being a great event.
Very upset over this! Policy of, no refund on tickets that have changed dates... concert change to seven (7) months later!
Will NOT use ONlinecity tickets any-longer for
Tickets... just lost 16-18 people!
This company told me I would have tickets in a section I selected but when I printed my tickets they were in a different section. They refused to refund me because they called it an upgrade. They are a front for scalpers and don't actually have tickets where they allow you to select on the map. Do not buy tickets from this company. Also, they do not try to find you the best deal, as they claim in their mission statement, because I bought the tickets in the section I wanted for $50 less, after fees, through Stub Hub. Buyer beware. Dishonest company.
Very Good Service. Easy to operate. Don't like that I have to enter a certain amount of characters on here...
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);-)
