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.

If you don't mind getting your tickets an hour before your show and go to a place to print them this is the place to go and its not 100 percent guarantee cant even rate them they are horrible
I ordered tickets for an upcoming concert and was super excited that they were delivered sooner than orginally stated. Very pleased with our seats.
Great service. Customer friendly. Printing was quick and easy. Site easy to use. I would use this site again
The tickets were a good price but the service charge I felt was extremely high. I will never buyou tickets through your website ever again. Live and learn.
Thought that the $30.00 service charge per ticket was a had too stiff, but hell you only live once. Will not purchase thru your web site again.
The best way to get fast and easy service
Love it didn't have any problems with ordering the tickets everything went smooth as planned I would advise everyone to try after site Ticketmaster online.com it straight and want
I ordered tickets. Paid waaay to much. But interesting they came in the mail from ticketmaster directly. Are they owned by ticketmaster and used as a way for artists/ticketmaster to get more money?
I have been nervous that this was a vulnerable way to get tickets for events but it help me to feel that my order was safe and secure.
Excellent service. I had no issues and was able to smoothly get what i ordered. I would recommend this service to others
I purchased tickets not realizing how over priced the tickets were. Immediately following the purchase I contacted them to get a refund as I noticed how many hidden fees were within my large purchase. They refused to give us a refund as they "don't have the ability to do this". Said we could resale the tickets. However, we won't receive the tickets until a few days before the event. We will never purchase tickets from this company again. The way they treat their "customers" is absolutely ridiculous and immoral. I have never had to leave a bad review for any company or place of business. However, OnlineCityTickets way of doing business is the worst!
Extra $20 per ticket for some fee kinda sucked. My two $66 tickets turned into $90 tickets by the time i was ready to order...
Very quick and easy to use, didn't take much time at all and was clear and strait forward. I got the email for my tickets a few hours afterwards.
It was my first time to purchased an online tickets, and I found out that this one is very useful. It saves time, fast and convenient. The only thing that I don't like was that the service charge was overpriced for each ticket.
I wish there was an option for military veterans to purchase their tickets. Some form of ID can be sent in verifying the veterans identity such as a military issued ID or a veterans affairs ID card. Something at least
Navigating the site and seeing what was available in each section was a snap, but the face value of the tickets was twice as much as TicketMaster: $264 for 8 tickets compared to $128. After fees, the totals were $351 compared to $201, in favor of TicketMaster. Unfortunately, all sales are final, so I'm stuck.
The additional fees were ridiculously priced. About $111 extra just for buying online! Not the best thing to see. However, the process was simple and easy.
I haven't received when I would be getting my tickets or anything. The tickets are for a concert that is on Sunday the 19th at 345 pm and I'm wondering about my 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);-)
