They lied about the tickets I was receiving. Would not refund. Would not exchange. Urged me to try and resell tickets, I never received the tickets; therefore they could not be sold. Urged me to resell on StubHub, THEIR COMPETITOR. Load of crap, I will never recommend this company to anyone. Contacted BBB

CROOKS!
September 30, 2016

My husband purchased tickets from SEATGEEK. TWICE! He has not received any confirmation but there are 2 pending transactions on our credit card statement for $145 each from SEATGEEK. The purchases are not showing in his history when we log on and we have no way of knowing who the seller is. SEATGEEK needs to remedy this situation since our credit card statement is showing that THEY are taking our money REGARDLESS of who the alleged "seller" is!

Pricey
November 20, 2019

The online experience was fun for my 1st time using the site, but was not aware of the cost to process tickets. Almost better to just go up to stadium or arena if you can and purchase them there.

Not sure about about the tickets?
March 29, 2019

I was buying my public transportation tickets and I'm not sure if I got them or not? No email confirmation, nothing on how they were being delivered? Not too happy.

Hey there,

Thank you for letting us know about this issue. I am happy to shed some light on it and do apologize for the confusion.

The tickets for transportation will be sent to customers directly from the team. Our verbiage was originally not as informative as it should be and this has been updated to avoid confusion going forward.

I can assure you that your tickets will be sent and you will have them. The season is going to be exciting and we would not want you missing even one game!

If you have any further questions about your tickets though, please email us at support@seatgeek.com or call us at 888-506-4101 and we will be happy to look into this further.

Easy Purchase
November 25, 2018

Using the platform was quick and easy. Next time I need tickets I will use again.

Fees could be a little lower, a $25 cap per ticket would be acceptable.

Great experience every time. Never and issue with tickets, finding seats and enjoying the venues. Having to print emails most of the time is annoying but not a deal breaker.

Hi Kevin! SeatGeek is a ticket aggregator, meaning we list tickets but do not own them. You are absolutely entitled to a refund for your tickets, but because SeatGeek did not charge you for the tickets, we therefore cannot provide you with a refund. You'll have to reach out to the vendor from whom you purchased the tickets to facilitate your refund.

To find the vendor that charged you for your tickets, please take a look at your bank statement and get in touch with them. If you need assistance getting their contact information, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Do you know which vendor you purchased the tickets from? If you need us to help you by contacting them to assist you with your refund, we'd be more than happy to help.

Deceptive return policy
November 27, 2023

Bought tickets that said, returnable by a certain day. However, I found cheaper tickets with a better view and when I called them to find out they said tickets were only exchangeable for credit

I got tickets to the Billie Joel concert in NY and they turned out to be fake. All three of them. My parents planned their trip to come to the US around the concert, took and Uber from their hotel to the venue to find out they can't get in because there are other names linked to the tickets already. Not only that, it took 3 tries waiting for a full hour to hour and a half to get a hold of customer service. IT'S JUST NOT WORTH IT!

I bought 2 tickets for the Super Bowl in Houston. After purchasing, I checked the reviews for FanXchange, and nearly had an anxiety attack reading the reviews and having just spent a few thousand dollars on tickets. Well everything went PERFECTLY. There was constant communication as to a pick up location, times to pick up, and phone numbers to reach a local contact. The tickets were picked up easily and there were no issues. We even received tickets 15 rows closer than expected.

Also, while in Houston, we decided to check out the Bulls vs. Rockets game, we purchased tickets 5 minutes before game time. The tickets were sent electronically in 3-4 minutes as expected. The only downside was that app that the tickets download to was horrible. (I can't remember the name). The line for issues with this app was about 75-100 people. I'm not sure if that is FanXchange issue or not, but it was a minor inconvenience as it moved quickly. The box office had to print the tickets and there were no issues.

Overall, a great experience with FanXchange

Awful Experience
November 9, 2022

I purchased tickets to Jerry Seinfeld in 2019 (Pre-Covid). The event was scheduled for 2020. Eventually it got canceled. A year later they email me telling me the event was rescheduled for 2022 and the tickets I received are the same tickets to be used for the new date. Unfortunately for me I had lost the tickets and they are no where to be found. I've been trying to get in touch with SeetGeek for the past three months now to either get me a set of new tickets or reimburse me. No one can help me. They tell me every time I call that they are escalating the case and no one will call me back. Every time I call back a new customer service rep picks up and tells me the same thing. The event is next week and it is unbelievable they can not provide me tickets, a refund, or even an answer! I will never use SeetGeek again their customer service is awful! Best to buy tickets from Ticketmaster or the host of the event. If there's an issue they can at least help.

Love it
January 1, 2019

So, on December 22 I took my son and wife to Blaze pizza for dinner. The line to order was sooo long. I asked my son what he was doing Monday night, which wasChristmas eve. He said no plans. I asked him if he wanted to go to the Raiders game on Christmas eve. He said yup! So I used my Seat Geek app to look for tickets. I looked at what was available, and puc h ased them all before we ordered our pizza. Quick and easy peasy!
