Fees should be listed up front
August 25, 2018

$45 fee was shocking and over the top IMO. I couldn't see them till checkout and then my final invoice showed no fee and a higher ticket price. Consistency and straightforward pricing please!

Hi there William,

Thanks so much for providing us with this feedback; we're really sorry to hear that you feel like you weren't getting help from us on this! I looked into your order, and I think I can explain everything for you.

The venue at which this event takes place exclusively uses a paperless ticketing system provided by Ticketmaster. All events at this venue require a Ticketmaster account to gain entry and what you have received are transfer invitations sent to your email address.

When you claim your tickets and create a TM account, you will associate a mobile device with the account. You can then simply scan the code from the mobile application to gain entry. This will be the method used by just about everyone at this event to get in.

Mobile transfers are one of the most secure forms of ticketing. It is also very convenient, because you just have to scan a QR code from your phone. No printing needed!

As you mentioned, since it sounds like you've got friends coming to this game with you and you want to get these tickets to them; it's easy! Just transfer their tickets over to them on the same TM platform where you can view your tickets-- the same way they were transferred over to you. All you need is their email address.

We hope that clears things up! Please don't hesitate to reach back out if you have any further questions on any part of this process.

Worst experience ever
September 16, 2023

You simply want to purchase a soccer ticket on a Friday night and you get severely punished for it. I don't think I've ever used seatgeek without encoutering awful bugs. As buyer and as a seller. The ticket I bought refused to download. It says "try again in a few seconds" over and over forever. It should never say try again in a few seconds when it's never going to resolve, that's just cheap incompetent programming and a billion dollar corporation can afford better. So I contact customer service, I wait 20 minutes to get somebody, then the person keeps putting me on hold. Eventually I make a comment about how frustrating it is that they should have such buggy website and I get "Grace has left the conversation" - she hung up on me and then disabled my ability to reconnect. Now when I try to ask for customer service it says "CHAT IS NO LONGER AVAILBLE". There's no phone number to call, no way now to get help I'm forced to call AmEx to charge it back. They tell me I have to wait four days to do that. So that's what you get for simply trying to spend two minutes buying a ticket, that's what you get from corporations these days, total disregard total disrespect and abuse and nobody cares. When I inconvenience a customer in my (small) business they do not have to ask for compensation I go out of my way to make things right. Soon as all small business are replaced by corporations, such good experiences with companies will be alien to everybody.

Very nice. Very easy process. Simply the absolute pinnacle of ticket purchasing technology. I usually all stressed out when I must purchase a ticket to a social event but this was very easy and cool.

Great Seats and Price
April 16, 2018

I loved the ability to use the app to purchase tickets, have them sent to my phone, and enjoy the show. I used Seat Geek 4 times this weekend and each time it was flawless.

Needs a seating chart
March 2, 2020

The process was easy all in all, but there was no picture of the arena seating sections on your site. I had to toggle back and forth on a different website to pick the section.

This was my first time buying from Seat Geek, and without a doubt it will be my last. My entire experience was absolutely infuriating. I urge whoever reads this to carefully consider buying elsewhere.

I bought tickets 2 months ago to an event I'm supposed to go to tonight. I spent over $2,000 for these tickets (which included hundreds of dollars in service fees paid to Seat Geek). The tickets were supposed to be mailed before the event by the seller. Originally, I wasn't too worried about the ticket delivery. Of course, as the event crept closer that would change. Here it is the day of the event and the status of my order shows the tickets will ship soon, support was unable to get the seller to release the tickets, and I now have to buy from another vendor... To an event that's prices are now through the roof. Oh yeah... And this is an event outside my home city that I bought plane tickets and accomodations for.

In the past 2-3 weeks I have reached out to the support team via phone and email 10+ separate times. Each time they promised they would get ahold of the seller to figure out what was going on. And each time I would be lucky if I ever heard from that same support rep again. It's clear that Seat Geek support doesn't actually have the ability to solve problems. They're their to field calls and carefully sweep problems under the rug until the buyer is left with no other options than to buy elsewhere.

I am still floored by what a bad experience this has been. Hopefully I get a refund, but given my experience so far, I doubt it.

Great seat, great price!
December 31, 2017

Shopped online for tickets to the Steelers-Texans game in Houston and found great seats at a great price on SeatGeek. Best part was no need to print tickets out. Love SeatGeek!

DONT USE SEATGEEK!
September 12, 2018

Did not receive our tickets before our concert. The day of the concert I was told if the seller did not fulfill our order then I would have comparable tickets or upgraded tickets but had to wait 2 hours before the concert to give the seller time to fulfill the order. It was not fulfilled. They could not give me comparable tickets because they were sold out. At this time I was outside the stadium waiting to go in with tickets because they told me earlier that they would provide me with comparable or upgraded tickets. When I called back at 5 (because they never called me back) I was told I could get a refund or a "significant downgrade!" I was outside the stadium I had no tickets- I told them I will take the downgrade but I paid for better seats so I expect a refund of some sort. They refuse to give me one. I'm 6 months pregnant, and over the day accumulated almost 3 hours on the phone with them. It was very stressful and I will never use this company again. They just want your money they don't care about your consequences.
