VividSeats Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is significantly marred by numerous customer complaints regarding service reliability and transparency. Many users report frustrations with receiving incorrect tickets, unexpected charges, and inadequate customer support, often describing the service as untrustworthy and dismissive. While some customers have noted positive interactions with individual representatives, these instances are overshadowed by a pervasive sentiment of dissatisfaction and confusion throughout the purchasing process. The consistent issues with order confirmation and refund policies highlight a need for major improvements in customer service practices to enhance trust and user experience.

READ T & Cs, IF reschedule event, NO REFUND... even as in my case 1 yr out!
When you call in to buy, NOT told you are buying resale seats and NO refund
You get a chance to resell once again tickets on their web site for $176 pus fees for 2, oh how fun

Nick was great! He was very helpful! I purchased 3 tickets to a bowl game that is 20 hours away and how to use the mobile ticking function, which I have never used. He was patient as I talked to my husband about what our price options were. He even looked up a section in another stadium that I am familiar with so, I could compare the distance from the field between the 2 rows. Nick gave me his ext number to use if I had trouble using the mobile app or tickets, that I could call and he would walk me through it.

Knute was excellent. He helped me select the best seats for my budget and also applied a promotion code I had received via email. Very appreciative of his time and patience.

I started out on-line and established an account at 8am. I called to clarify that my two seats would be together. The gentleman was very helpful and polite and offered to book the tickets so I went ahead with the transaction. After the transaction was complete at 8:08am(same day) I got an e-mail message that said "We noticed you were interested in Elton John tickets but didn't make a purchase. Complete your order now, and we'll take 10% off* when you check out!" I lost out on $178 savings. I agree with some others that the service fees are outrageous.

I have ordered about 3 or 4 times on the website, and this past time and one other time I have dealt with frustration at checkout! Finding the tickets is easy, the processing fee is a little high, but every time I try to use my mastercard to check out, I have had to reach out to customer service to help complete the order! It is becoming quite frustrating when you have a time limit for check out and then cannot complete it on your own!

Nick Nick Nick!
November 30, 2018

Nick (ext. 2802) was terrific, helpful and answered all my questions as a first time visitor and purchaser. I had been to 3 different sites and no one would tell me a more specific location of the seats I was purchasing. And Nick gave me enough information to satisfy what I needed to know. I also took confidence in knowing that if there were any problems with the tickets that VividSeats would take care of me with their 100% guarantee. Hopefully there will be no issues. Thanks Nick! Your mother would be proud of you!

I was looking to purchase multiple groups of tickets for a game so called in and got great service. They took care of me with a personal touch discussing the upcoming game. Vivid also has the lowest transaction fees of any of the competitors.

I appreciate Derricks help with purchasing my tickets. I called back to book more for my coworkers and couldn't get to Derricks extension and the other guy was not nearly as much help so they booked on another website.
