“Customer service was solid”

Sacca G.
2/5/24

While purchasing tickets for Cabaret on Broadway, I accidentally purchased tics for the wrong date (had 2 windows open!). I immediately realized my mistake, found a customer service phone number and called. I explained what happened to 'Kate', and was told that it may be possible to exchange tickets for the date I actually wanted. About 4 hours later I received a call back with a confirmation that the exchange had gone through and that my new tics were available on the app. I know that SeatGeek policy is that all purchases are final, but because these tics were a few months out they were able to assist. I appreciated the customer service.

“Charge buyers up to 40+%”

The seller pay 10% and buyers pay up to 40% and you don't see the break down unless you put in the search price without fees. Can't reach a human to speak with This is the official site of MLB contact you team to tell them that fans are being ripped off

I love going to the Tiger games. Cheaper the tickets the more games we can go to. We like to go on the give away days.

Hi Jose, thanks for reaching out about this! It does look like the email with the link for accepting these tickets was sent out on the 1st, but we've got a member of our support team getting that re-sent right now! Just look out for an email with a link to accept the tickets, setup an account, and you should be set!

Selection process was easy. Navigating the site was easy. Buying was easy. I just wish we could see the seats BEFORE purchasing.

I like the ease of navigation through the website. However your fees almost total the price of the ticket.

Easy to use, affordable and easy to forward a ticket with a text and not a email like most others only offer.

Hi Claudia!

Thanks so much for leaving us this feedback. I can absolutely see why this would seem confusing, but I can definitely shed some light on why it is we don't make actual seat numbers visible before purchase.

As a ticket platform, we can only work with what info sellers provide. And unfortunately we never know exactly where in a row seats will be because sellers don’t make seat numbers available ahead of time. We're really just the search engine connecting buyers to sellers, so as long as the inventory isn't in *our* hands (rather, it's in our sellers'), we can't display seat numbers that we don't know.

All tickets listed on SeatGeek within the same listing are next to each other, though, unless it says otherwise in the notes. So if you’re buying more than one ticket from a listing, they’re guaranteed to be adjacent.

What's more, I looked into your order specifically, and it looks like this show is all GA, meaning General Admission. So, the "seat number" written on your ticket, next to where it says "GA" is actually just for bookkeeping purposes-- you can sit where you like at this show!

I hope that clears things up for you, but please do feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns!

Compared to the ticket prices from the venue the prices on SeatGeek are outrageous and amounts to highway robbery.

Hi Dominic,

Due to the nature of us being a secondary ticket market, somewhat akin to Ebay, we don't set the prices for these tickets. The sellers base their prices on market demand, which means at times you will find tickets for above the primary box office price. That said, there are also many times you may find tickets selling under that primary box office price.

Our best advice is always to check the box office first, and if it's not available there then take a look at the prices. We do have an option to follow an event, so you can do that and keep an eye on if the prices fluctuate and drop as it gets closer to the event.

Warm Regards,

SeatGeek CX Team

They seem to go up for the same event depending on the price. Same event $12 dollar tickets with a $3 fee, $50 tickets with a $13 dollar fee.
