“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.

“Total scam- they owe me $700 for invalid tickets”

Dawn H.
10/31/24

I purchased tickets from Seat Geek to Sabrina Carpenter two months prior to the show. I received the tickets via email and added them to my Ticketmaster account. Three hours prior to the concert I got a notification from Ticketmaster that the tickets were invalid. Seat Geek customer service was useless and we were unable to attend the show. I've now spent 18 days communicating with seat geek via email and phone in which I'm continually told their team is working on it. I'm out over $700 and this company has made no attempts to refund me despite their buyer guarantee. Horribly incompetent customer service, would never trust to buy from them again.

Seat Geek has the best prices and it's such an easy process. Plus I love that we don't have to print the tickets off. We just use our phone.

Hi James. First and foremost, we want to apologize on behalf of the seller and SeatGeek if this seller did not come through with the tickets for your confirmed order. This isn't the sort of experience any of our users should have, and we hold our sellers to strict policies if they confirm orders they cannot fulfill.

If you continue to have concerns regarding this order, we definitely want to help. Please send an email to followup to hi@seatgeek.com and reference your Order ID so we can look into what happened and make sure you were reimbursed accordingly!

I do not recommend. I bought $240 worth of tickets and had to buy them again at the concert because they never sent me the bar code. Total scam.

Hi Tim,

We can definitely understand the frustrations with needing to print the tickets. Our system defaults to that when we are unsure if a venue or event takes mobile entry, some artists/teams/venues still only take physical ticket copies.

If you are unsure if the event takes physical tickets, please don't hesitate to email us at hi@seatgeek.com or login to the app/website within a week of the event and use our chat feature. We will be happy to look at the tickets and see if we can adjust that for you.

Warm Regards,

SeatGeek CX Team

Hey there,

We can definitely understand the frustrations that can come from needing to use other apps then the one you order from. Some venues/teams/events set a required app for entry. In cases like this, which is very common with MLB and their Ballpark app, our sellers need to fulfill using that app.

We are always here to help with the process though!

888.506.4101 or hi@seatgeek.com and one of our Event Experts will be there to assist!

Warm Regards,

SeatGeek CX Team

Didn't like that tickets had to be printed. It was very inconvenient. Using a mobile ticket would be much better.
