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 loved how it was so easy to use. The navigation was clear. I love how it shows you your purchase and total on the left hand side. Most of all I absolutely love the follow up feature!
Good and easy tu use. I wish it would have been more evident that it wasd in US dollars. I was quite surprise when I saw my credit card bill.
Thank you for providing a easy and painless experience to buying concert tickets. This is a gift for my sons graduation... we had tickets when they cancelled last time so it is a late gift but Nickleback is his favorite and we are so excited he gets to experience a concert at Redrocks! Thank you!
I checked several sites and you had a better seat selection and better prices. After I placed my order, I received the tickets by email with 15 minutes. Thanks.
30 hours before event and still no e-tickets. Promises of delivery have been promised and delayed each time. Purchased tickets over 4 months ago and still no tickets. Will never use this service again. Still not sure if I got scammed.
The website was very easy to use.The tickets and insurance arrived in a timely manner. I would use this service again.
I buy tickets online almost exclusively and this site has to be the easiest one to navigate by far. I got my tickets within a matter of minutes.
The whole transaction only took a matter of minutes I received the tickets electronically and printed them out it was a done deal.
Very good service. Quick service. Very pleased. Very easy to use.
Definitely recommend to use.
So my wife order 3 tickets from online city tickets to take our daughter to the circus. We get to the coliseum and as they scan our tickets they told us they had been refunded so we went to the service counter. Found out we had been Scamed. We call Online Ticket City and they tell us they are trying to get in touch with the seller. I was on hold for about 5 minutes when they returned and said they couldn't get in touch with them. When I asked for a refund they said they would email me some kind of form to feel out to start an investigation. Was told I would have the email with in 3-5 days. Now we are out of $150.00 and have to wait weeks before a refund. This site is a huge scam. DO NOT PURCHASE TICKETS. Sad world when you are scamming kids.
I paid $99 for $69 tickets. OK, I expect that. But a $29 service charge PER ticket is inexcusable. Plus there was another smaller fee. I printed my own tickets. Go to the box office or Ticketmaster.
First time using online city tickets. Very easy to use and shows what is available and pricing. I will use again.
Thank you again... Seems very legit. I guess I will see in September! I really don't care to write a very long extended review because I have better things to be doing with my time. So I guess that would be the downside of everything.
They comfirmed my order when i ordered tickets a week ago, when will I recieve them? I would like to know when I will recieve my tickets they don't share that information with you. I will write a good review after I recieve my tickets.
You guys have great service! Your prices can't be beat! And, I love the option of paying with PayPal! Thank you
It was a quick and easy process and glad they're wasn't a short timer timing you while you check out.
I really enjoyed the quick service. It was fast and easy and I got the tickets for a great price!. I highly recommend Onlinecitytickets.
I will continue to purchase my tickets at Onlinecitytickets.
Fair prices, convenient. The only stress was it seemed too easy, and it made me think is this for real?! I guess I'll know when I get to the concert and they let me in! The service fees added a little to the price of the tickets, but I guess they need to get something for their service. Over all I'm super pumped to see U2 doing a Joshua Tree concert. Missed it when I was younger! Bucket list for a 53 year old!
I found ordering my tickets for Dave Matthews Band on May 30,2017 in Jacksonville, FL to be easy. Really looking forward to the show!
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);-)
