I bought 2 tickets to a concert and had the "fees" included in the price. I was quoted a price of $89.00 and an extra $7.50 for instant delivery. Upon checking my email, I noticed that I was charged $253.00! I tried chatting with them, but they were closed, so I sent an email which they have not responded to yet. I got the tickets and there is fine print at the bottom that states the following: "*OnlineCityTickets.com does not provide refunds or exchanges for ticket transfers that were not accepted or declined. All sales are final." I was directed to this site directly from the Venue's website, which I now believe was hacked somehow. I bought another ticket as I had another guest wanting to join us, but this time went to Ticketmaster and only paid $81.25 including fees. TOTAL RIPOFF!
A scam DO NOT order from them. Will not send you the real tickets for your concerts. Called customer service to get more information and could not get ahold of anyone so I sent an email which was never answered. Finally go through a week later and they told me they are not a scam (something a scam company would say) and they would not refund my ticket that I never received. Be careful out there and make sure you are buying from a reputable seller. Lesson Learned
Tickets purchased in January and the concert is in 4 days. No tickets delivered. Email sent to OnlineCity, with no response. I just called customer service and was on hold for 1 hr and 40 min, then disconnected. The venue is refunding ticket purchases, if requested, due to the Covid spike. Unfortunately, I had not purchased tickets through their site as I could not find up-close seats. Having been hospitalized for Covid myself, my wife and I do not wish to attend the concert. OnlineCity will not refund the tickets nor have they been delivered so I can resell them. Customer service is not a priority with OnlineCity. Buyer beware.
Purchased tickets to Elton John for this past May. Obviously, the pandemic forced the show to be "postponed". OnlineCity will only refund your money if an event is cancelled. So, today I learn the show has been "rescheduled" for 2022!- 2 years from the original date! Who knows where I (or Elton John) will be in 2 years, or what kind of shape either of us will be in? When you purchase tickets, you are paying for a specific event at a specific time (or at worst within a reasonable time frame). However, in the minds of OnlineCity mobsters, "rescheduling" gives them the right to keep your money indefinitely. It's a pretty good business model where the seller takes no responsibility for not providing services which were purchased in good faith. But, not so good for repeat business.
I wish I could give 0 stars! I bought my tickets through this company for Alan Jackson concert. I bought my tickets in 2020. The concert was rescheduled twice before finally coming to the same venue in 9/30/22.
When I took my One City tickets to be scanned, I was rudely told that my tickets were invalid. I was both devastated and frustrated. I will never buy tickets from this company again! I will also make sure that my friends and family will never buy tickets from this company either.
Purchased 3 Red Sox tickets. They emailed me to confirm order. Section infield grandstand 14 row 20! There Is NO row 20 only goes to 18. Filed a fraudulent claim with this company. Also filed with my attorney. Do not purchase from this company!
I purchased tickets to an event that was later canceled. Despite contacting them multiple times, they will not refund my money. I emailed twice, which they ignored. Then they sent me to live chat and said that I had opened a dispute with my bank (which I had not). They repeated this lie but could not tell me which "bank" I had supposedly opened a dispute with. So now I have opened a dispute. This has been a lot of wasted time. Maybe they are okay if your event is not canceled or moved. But if so, good luck. I am still fighting to get my money back.
In Jan, I purchased 2 tickets to the ACC championship game. They refuse to refund my money even though the game will be played, not cancelled or postponed. They sold me tickets they never had to sell. Be aware. They change policies and will not provide the tickets.
This company should be close, they are a ripped off company, they are a joke. I bought a tickets for Aventura concert and I'm the kind of person that read refund policies before buying anything, when I bought the ticket the policy said that for postponed events they cannot made refunds but if the concert get cancel they will provide a full refund so I agree to that. I called yesterday asking for the refund since my event was cancel and they told me that I will receive a refund and asked me just to wait for the email confirmation, so today June 1.st 2021 I received an email saying that they just change the policy and they are going to give me a credit. I do not want a credit, I want my money back, that was what I agreed when I purchase my ticket. It's so wrong. I will go to the end of this. It's ridiculous, I don't agreed for the new policy that they just changed for their convince. I want my money back #order #*******.
Got the wrong company... looking for Ticket City... They're a terrible company If anybody else is out there has had problems with tickets city? Of they could give me a shout, would be awesome. Thank You
Answer: In my case, they sent e-mail that the tickets would be forthcoming. When I failed to receive them the week before the concert, per e-mail download as promised, I called their #, the person on the other end told me that it was will-call at the box-office with the copy of the e-mail I needed to bring. The box office told me that as a 2nd line seller, they did not keep them there. When I called to ask why they did this to me and demanded re-imbursal, they sent the tickets per e-mail download THE DAY AFTER THE CONCERT. They tried to cover their tracks with the credit card company, the problem for them was that the time stamp of their sending the tickets reflected the day after the concert. So essentially, they are not even competent as rip-off artists.
Answer: So sorry to hear you have been conned by this outfit. Apparently sometimes they DO send valid tickets, so I hope you are one of the lucky ones. I suggest you tell your credit card company (by phone and IN WRITING) that you are disputing this charge. Also tell everyone you know to avoid this rip-off company. I know this doesnt help you now, but in the future buy tickets only from Ticketmaster (I've never had a problem with them). Good luck.
Answer: I couldn't even open the download so I called the number and all I got was an answering system to send email and I did but no reply from them so the next day a call about 50 times until I got someone. After getting transferred to 3 different people and waiting about an hour for the supervisor the guy told me no refunds are allowed but money is 100% guarantee if it doesn't work at the time of the event. So I'm praying to God they are good the event isn't until the end of November
Answer: They are scoundrels. I know where their office is and went by there recently. I am laying out a plan.
Answer: If you have already purchased your tickets from this outfit, good luck. They sent me tickets for a concert in Tennessee and I asked for and live in Florida. They said it was MY mistake and that I asked for TN. They supposedly tried to resell the tickets and couldn't so I was out $300.00 for two tickets. They have something like 130 complaints and are a scam outfit. Next time order elsewhere and good luck with these tickets.
Answer: I just cancelled my order because they never sent the tickets. At least you got yours so maybe they will be okay. I would call the arena where the event will be and ask them how many issues they have had with this company. I emailed five times and they always sent an automated response back. Then, when I was in a meeting at work they finally called and the number just read, "33333" when they called me. No return phone number... very strange. They left a message to call them so I did immediately after my meeting (15 minutes)... the automated system was up and did not allow me to speak with a person. Thus far, I have never spoken to a real person when I call their number. I disputed the purchase, got my money back and bought tickets for much less at StubHub. I was surprised because my last tickets at Stubhub were kind of expensive... but these tickets (McCartney) were not too crazy expensive. Anyway, best of luck, and I would make a back up plan.
Answer: You will get your tickets, but they will likely have someone else's name printed on them. Worst of all, they will most likely not be honored at the gate/box office. My advice is to get a refund NOW and buy tickets from a reputable outlet like Ticketmaster. City Online are thieves and scammers. See my review about James Taylor concert in Norfolk, Virginia.
Answer: Contact the venue, give them all the details on the tickets received and verify if U will be able to legitimately use the tickets, considering the issues with this company that are so overwhelming. My experience reviewing all the people who describe their issues with them is that even if the tickets are usable, the overpayment is so excessive that it would have been better dealing with the regular ticket outlet for the venue.
Answer: Yes Ann, you will get your tickets. You just over paid by a HUGE amount... but other then that, the company is legit. They are just robbers the way they do it... thats all. Have a good time and yes, at least now you learned a lesson (like all of us on this site);-)
