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.

It wasn't obvious that this was in US funds until I had made the purchase. I would have bought them elsewhere and avoided the upcharge on the exchange
I purchased tickets in August for a show in early December. They wanted payment then and promised delivery within a few days. I even received this request for review if I had received my tickets. I did not get these tickets until 2 weeks prior because, they said, the seller had not received the tickets. So why sell them that early? I guess I would have been out of luck if the seller had changed their mind so late. I paid $110 for $50 tickets. What a scam!
I received confirmation that my order was processed and would be delivered on the specified date in the near future all within 24 hours. That reassures me that my tickets were valid and would be in my hands prior to the event date.
Cheers!
Stress free and super easy! Why would you buy tickets any other way?
I am very happy with the order and how fast it was to get them, very excited for the concert and will defiantly be buying more tickets!
Happy to celebrate my birthday weekend with last minute tickets for Maxwell and Mary J Blighe.
Hudden costs were a bit expensive but I will be aware next time.
What stays in Vegas is your money, but the memory I will take with me!
Very simple to navigate to find tickets of your preference.
I will let you know once I go to the event and see how the garage is assessable
Got some great seats for a good price. Received the tickets via email almost immediately. Can't wait for the concerts.
Ordered TSO tickets two days in advance of the show. I got floor 10th row seats for a very reasonable price. The "processing fee" was pretty steep though, almost 30% of the ticket price. I just hope when I go to the show there are no issues.
Fast service. Maybe a little over the original ticket price, but good service
Shows the price & general location on the map - superb!
As I described, I could receive earlier than I expected.
However, I wanted to pay by debit card...
Was able to pull up the concert I wanted, check the seats available and get what I wanted immediately. Be prepared to pay for the convenience, though. Will still keep them in mind for any future purchases.
Process was easy to follow. Look forward to the show. As I never shopped on line for tickets- really count on getting tickets on time
Took a couple extra days due to Ups. But i finally got my tickets. Thank you!
This popped up as an add. My wife bought the tickets. They were not direct from the venue. The tickets at the venue were half the price from Online City. I tried to cancel the order, but they do not allow cancellations. This is not a legit ticket selling company. They pay to have there site look like a legit ticket selling company. But they are NOT. Do NOT BUY! Do NOT BUY! Do NOT Buy! I hope this helps someone else out there and they do not buy the tickets.
All we need to do now is book the flights from the UK to NYC!
Didn't spot the agency fees until check-out - wow what a shock - but I had already committed to buying the tickets for Pat Metheny.
But the Chili Peppers are worth it. PLEASE LOWER THE SERVICE FEES IF YOU WANT ME TO BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER! THANK YOU!
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);-)
