I had 2 tickets to a Red Sox - Tigers game that I listed for sale very early the morning of the game. Shortly thereafter, I received confirmation that the tickets had been listed. I changed the price a few times within the first couple hours, and received confirmation via email each time. Everything seems OK right? Nope...

I later went to the buying screen for the game and noticed that my tickets weren't listed (no green/yellow/red dot above the seats). I emailed customer service about this issue immediately. About two hours later - now only 4 hours before the game - seatgeek emails me back and explains that their system had a "parsing issue", and as a result my tickets had not EVER been visible online for people to buy. They said they fixed it and if i listed them again it would work. Again, by this time it's close to game time and ticket prices have dropped precipitously.

So essentially they made me agree not to sell them via any other online platform, failed to list the tickets on their site (despite confirmations to me that they had been listed), and only partially resolved the issue with mere hours before the game started.

Customer service-wise, they are even worse. When I tried calling to explain the issue, the associates couldn't follow what the issue was. Poorly trained and setup to fail. Not to mention I was hung up on once by a "manager". They have also failed to call me back multiple times after promising to call back within 24 hours. Don't even waste your time with these jerks.

Tip for consumers:
Do not use it

First and foremost, we want to apologize for this. While we do our best to make sure the system parses ticket information and maps it correctly within a venue, there are some venues (Fenway Park especially) that are laid out with significantly more complexity, and this can sometimes result in the ticket being mapped incorrectly. Please know that our team is constantly working to improve the mapping abilities for these venues. If you'd like us to continue looking into this, please let us know. Send us an email to hi@seatgeek.com and we'll make sure to answer all of your questions!
