“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.

My phone has free wifi only so I can not show my tickets on my phone unless if have free wifi. Could be a problem.

Hey There!

That is a perfectly valid concern and one I wanted to be sure we addressed. A really good work around for if you are not sure you will have the connectivity to utilize the app at the event is to take a screen shot. The screen shot of the mobile QR code will scan just fine from your photo roll and that way in a worst case scenario you don't have to worry about not being able to access the WiFi to bring up your tickets.

Warm Regards,

I lost 20% of what I paid for my ticket and lost a lot of money. Never going to resell my tickets back to SeatGeek.

This is "informed buying" made easy. I wish other websites were this easy and the purchasing process this transparent.

I still have to create many accounts to get ticket. It is difficult to get tickets. I hope to select what kind of delivery method I prefer.

We fully understand it can be a frustrating experience to need multiple apps to get tickets. We do our best to keep orders just in SeatGeek, but certain venues and teams require the usage of specific apps. In the case of MLB they require all tickets be sent through their Ballpark app. We are always here to assist though and you can reach us at 888.506.4101 or email us at hi@seatgeek.com
