“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.

Bought tickets for seats and the tickets came as standing room. Sent emails to customer service and they told me to sell the tickets again, I literally lost $150+ just by this. NEVER USE SEATGEEK!

I used another ticket resale site, but they got a little pricey. Their fees almost exceed the price of the tickets!
My new ticket site is SeatGeek.

Good site for ticket selection although fees are slightly high. It is very easy to use and access for the electronic tickets to get into the venue.

Got tickets and I'm happy. That's really all I want in a service like this. I don't get why I need to write a paragraph for it.

Hi Latricia, thanks for letting us know about this, and we're really sorry. This order was placed with and should have been fulfilled by a third party vendor outside of SeatGeek. We take all of these concerns very seriously, and any time we see a trend with sellers on our sight not fulfilling orders as they should, it affects whether they're able to continue listing on our site. We'll be following up directly with the seller of your tickets to get to the bottom of what happened here.

Just what I paid for! $51 seats for $14 due to late season game. Seat geek is great for less popular games.

The rating system helped me to make a great decision! Also, showing the tickets with fees makes the process transparent. Thank you!
