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.

Have never bought tickets on the secondary market so I called and spoke with an actual person. I know that I paid about $50.00 more than each of the seats were worth, but I was OK with that. What surprised me was that there was an additional $27.00 service charge. So two tickets that should have cost about $120.00, ended up costing me about $260.00 (I received a 5% discount from the person I talked to). So, I know I overpaid but I really wanted to see the concert and all the tickets were sold out for Brandi Carlile and this was the "going rate" on the secondary market. Hopefully the concert will be worth it. I would like to give the person I spoke to 5 stars, but because the amount I paid was so overpriced I would give VividSeats 0 stars. So I settled for 3 stars.

I was on the website but wanted to find out what the fees were before entering all my information. I called the 800 # got a quick response (spoke to Nick) who immediately hooked me up with the METS TICKETS. So easy and quick.

I spoke with John this morning. I had a question about a listing I had seen online. He answered my questions and was knowledgeable enough about the theater to make recommendations (which didnt require me to spend more money than I was looking to!)

Thanks for all of your help, John!

I was duped by this business. I went directly to the box office of LebanonOperaHouse
And they informed me that I had been scalped. I paid $100.00 more than I should have.
I am retired and I have been HAD. I will never ever buy tickets again from
VIVIDSEATS as it is all about duping the public. Shame on you- Marian

Luis assisted me in finding great seats at an affordable price. He explained the electronic process and how to obtain the e-tickets. He advised to allow one day for the email with the instructions however, I got the email moments after purchasing the tickets which was super good. Great job Luis!

Alex to the rescue
April 7, 2018

Ive been searching quite a bit to find tickets to this event. I thought I had them ordered through the online route. However, that was not the case. I rang up David seats. Spoke with Alex and he had everything squared away in a matter of moments. Thank you very much.

Very Good and Affordable Tickets. I appreciated the help I needed with purchasing and my seats for the Beyonce concert are amazing. I look forward to this event and that Vivid Seats for helping me with my telephone purchase. I want to give good feedback to John and Renee who helped me out. Thank you kindly and may this event be spectacular and entertaining. John was very polite in helping me purchase this ticket and Renee was very helpful when purchasing the second ticket. I have experienced good service from Vivid Seats before and was not disappointed in my purchase. Thank you so much Vivid Seats

Trying to navigate the ticket purchasing programme was a very frustrating process.
The handling fee per ticket is outrageous and ticket prices the same. Please remove all my information from your customer base and desist from any further email correspondence. I will not buy anything from VividSeats again.
