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 dont think that I should be penalized for getting an e- ticket as this costs you less then printing and mailing paper tickets!

See above
Message in the title, as it is difficult to evaluate until the order is complete. Since all I have received is a confirmation of the processing it is hard to say anything. All other ratings have been positive that is why I chose them.

Great but expensive
February 10, 2017

Fast and easy with quick e-delivery of tickets. High handling/service fees.

Would use again as so fast and simple. Maybe it is true that you get what you pay for:-)

Yay
February 10, 2017

It was so quick and easy. It was so much fun and a great site to get tickets off of. Easy to manage. I can not wait to go see the show. And I liked how I didn't have to have an account already made to purchase my tickets

HIDDEN FEES
February 10, 2017

IT WOULD BE NICE IF WHEN YOU ADVERTISE A PRICE FOR TICKETS, YOU'D INCLUDE THE ADDITIONAL $12 SERVICE CHARGE PER TICKET RATHER THAN POSTING IT ON THE PAYMENT SCREEN. ALSO, 6.95 FEE FOR EMAIL DELIVERY WITH NO OTHER OPTION? WHY? I NEVER PAID ANYONE $6.95 TO SEND AN EMAIL.

Resale price gaugers
February 10, 2017

They jacked up the price of the tickets a ridiculous amount. I couldn't find tickets at any other site so I was forced to resort to them. Will not use again. At least the tickets came fast. Here's hoping they are legitimate and we can actually get into the concert.

It is a bit pricey but I think it'll be worth it :) Site is very userfriendly but it could tell before hand that a service fee will be included in the final price just to make a better estimate when looking at the seats.

Never use this company. This was my first time to deal with them. Paid $998.75 for tickets to see Billy Joel. Was told I would have the tickets on 2/8/17. Received an email at a later date stating that I would not receive the tickets until 2/9/17. It is 7:14 pm on 2/9/17. I have no tickets. I called customer service, I was told if I did not get the tickets by 2 hours before the concert they guarantee that I would receive the same ticket or better. Are they kidding. This was supposed to be my 50th Birthday celebration. Now I supposed to site and check my email all day for the tickets. We had the entire day planned out so much for dinner reservations Thank you Onlinecitytickets for a great 50th birthday!

Total fraud
February 9, 2017

They claimed the sent my tickets three times but I never received them. I went back and forth with them for a month and ultimately was so frustrated that I asked them to cancel my order. They completely refused to cancel the order and said I should just resell my tickets if I didn't want them but that obviously wasn't an option because I never received the tickets in the first place. In the end the only option I had was to dispute the charge with my bank.

Very easy and straight forward way of obtaining tickets for an event. Even a beginner on the computer would find it user friendly.

It is fraudulent to advertise a price that does not include all charges. I will never, ever purchase tickets from OnlineCityTickets again. They know full well what they are going to charge, and then advertise a much lower price. The $79 PER TICKET service charge is not made obvious, you only see it after you have picked a "delivery option", and then only if you move to a different part of the page where the "service charge" appears when you pick your "delivery option".

We purchased 10 tickets through this company. I have literally no idea how this is legal. We have never used this site before and have no idea what they're about. We called to buy the tickets due to the quantity we were buying. The representative tells us that we have to buy the tickets in 3 orders... ok? They CONFIRM we will be in this club box in this row. Okay cool. Well, one of the orders is in a completely different club box. The other two orders? No idea where they're at. Not to mention the representative FAILED to mention this to us while purchasing. Because if we were told, we would have bought the tickets elsewhere. Call customer service? Get a miserable woman on the phone who claims she is the supervisor who will just tell you to shut up and listen to her spew bull$#*! and essentially say she can't help you. So now we are waiting for 6 tickets to show up ONE WEEK before the show and have no idea where we will be sitting. The point of buying 10 $#*!ing tickets was to sit together. OBVIOUSLY. I am beyond furious with this site and the fact that their customer service is so $#*!ing terrible. They backed us into a corner where now we can't get a refund because we're still in a club box that we were "guaranteed." Utter. $#*!ing. Bull$#*!. Buy tickets somewhere else. Please.

They clearly say that they are a ticket agency and will provide you the seats you want or from a comparable section. HOWEVER, I chose a section dead center with 28 available seats to choose on the map, and their buyer ended up getting them four sections over on a corner for a different price because they probably went through another selection service themselves that gives you a range, but not the exact section. I don't think that compares. Their fees are outrageously high as well. They promise a 100% back guarantee but that's only if the performer cancels the show. Tickets cannot be returned or exchanged. It's no wonder their customer service line was receiving a high volume of calls when I tried to complain about this and I couldn't get through. NEVER AGAIN!

Very disappointed. My husband is besides himself that I spent this much money when I thought I was paying $159 a ticket.

Will never use this site again.
