Hello,

I sent a complaint to you (re Ticketmaster) earlier today. In my frustration and anger at the time, I thought that I was actually sending it to Ticketmaster.

You are welcome to post it on your website if it helps.....but please edit out any personal details.

Thank you

I purchased 2 tickets for the Cher Show on broadway. I had a death in my family and I couldn't attend the show. I called ticketmaster and asked them if they can reschedule the show for another day. They said my request has to be in pending to see if it can be approved. They will email me. One week went by and I never heard from them. I called and the customer service rep said my file is on hold and then said it was denied and they can't do nothing about because of their policy. I'am upset because now I lost $147.00 and they couldn't even show any sympathy for me? I have been a customer for Tickemaster for years and they are so unfair to me. Poor customer service.

I have been online trying to purchase $20 tickets during National Concert Week for two days. It's IMPOSSIBLE!!!
You advertise Cardi B at SPAC and ZZ Top at the Bank of NH Pavilion in Gilford NH HOWEVER - Neither of those shows come up!! and both are listed on your 84 page list of participating artists so.....When I DO search them by artist, those shows come up but the tickets are NOT $20.00! I called customer service and was on hold for 33 minutes. That is OUTRAGEOUS!!!! Hire more people! I am beyond frustrated. I just called the 310 area code number for corporate only to have the live human that answered the phone, not be able to hear me and hang up after saying hello ONCE! I need someone to please help me purchase a few small tickets this week before they are sold out so I would REALLY appreciate a call or email back. My cell is 518-423-0006.

I mess up my order on some boxing tickets and quickly call to exchange for the location cause the mixup was 7hrs away no refund just exchange the tickets ran $240 they refused to exchange the tickets to the location near me and basically told me I was shit out of luck $240 down the drain. Not me I will email everyone one on Ticketmaster till I now want my money back.

There is a lot of talk about dissuading scalpers from flooding the ticket market with overpriced tickets. As a member of a fan club of my favorite band who will be touring this summer, I requested tickets to one concert. My request was granted but the seats were moved back to a "lesser" level. When tickets went on sale to the public, I went online to see if I could get better seats but there were none. The same day, there were great seats available on TM and LN for hundreds of dollars above face value. The definition of a scalper is "a person who resells shares or tickets at a large or quick profit." LN and TM, you have become the scalper. In no rational world should the average joe have to pay 800, 900, 1000+ dollars for a ticket that has a face value of $115. Do the right thing, do not let people resell tickets on your sites! it isn't right and you are what everyone hates to deal with, a scalper who is no better than the scum that walk up and down the street asking everyone if they "need tickets?"

I am trying to book tickets for a client of mine who would like to go to a pop concert. first we tried boyzone obviously cos your disabled you cant book online don't understand this reason really. to then be given a number to ring for each different event is very costly and time consuming. then to try and book Robbie Williams tickets I have been given another special number just for disabled people which makes the process really hard. I think you need to make an online booking system for disabled people as this is discrimination. you would think the system would be easier as there is enough challenges in life for them just being in a wheelchair.

I sent an email yesterday (6th of September) to receive a loyalty discount code for Electric Picnic tickets. I got an email back saying I would receive an email with my code after 6pm. I did not receive a code until 11:30am the following day to which the tickets had already been sold out by that time! An absolute disgrace I am full with anger

Are you providing untrue negative information that was provided to you from sources to ventures in which I have purchased event tickets to violate my civil rights and liberties? If this is the case, slanderous information provided to you is unconstitutional. No-one is above the law. A person is innocent until proven innocent. I have not had a hearing or trial.

I purchased two tickets in April of this year for my husband and son aged six to go to see Liverpool v Napoli in the avivia. Unaware I started to get charged 15 euro for a following two months, this I did not want and was not allowed a refund. My husband finds out after the match that childrens tickets were 10 euro, this was not clear or at all online when purchasing tickets. I paid the same price for both tickets. So I am greatly disappointed over this. Colette

Attended the Keke Wyatt event on 7/31/2018. The start time for the event specifically stated 7:00pm. I arrived at the Howard Theater at 6:37pm. I took my place in line at approximately 6:41pm. Security did not allow consumers entry into the building until 7:35pm. After searching for a vacant seat, I was never informed of the additional events/acts for that evening. I stayed until 10:41pm and Keke Wyatt was still a "no-show." I ended up leaving due to toiling around of misrepresentation and unprofessionalism from the staff and also the hired DJs during this event. I shouldn't have to come to an event and recieve criticism due to non-participation directly from the DJ to the audience. Hence; the DJ stated that "he doesn't deal with people who don't fuck with bougie people like the people up there." He specially point at the balcony section of the theatre where I was currently sitting. He repeated himself not once but "twice" while stopping the music and making it be known. I was VERY offended and disrepected and requesting my money back for this event.

My daughter was buying a ticket for an event and the web site timed-out before the transaction was complete. She repeated the procedure and this time completed the transaction. However, she was then sent two tickets and our bank account was charged twice. Trying to get to talk to someone is an extrmeley long process due to lack of people manning the phones and once I sent the ticket was sent back we were told it would take at least 15 days for the reimbursement to be agreed! I spent over an hour on the phone (twice) and spent £6.50 sending the ticket recorded delivery......despite this being the total fault of Ticketmaster. They were happy to whip the money away in seconds but needed over two weeks to CONSIDER reimbursement for their mistake. I am still awaiting confirmation that the money (along with booking charge etc.) will be placed back into my account. I look forward to pursuing this in the small claims court within the next two weeks if I hear nothing, despite my phone calls. This is not the way to treat customers

My friend and I ordered tickets to the Charleston, West Virginia performance of Transiberian Orchestra on November 30 and paid $130 for each ticket. Imagine our surprise when the tickets arrived and the price on each ticket was $64.00. I realize there is a charge for the Ticketmaster service but double the price? I will never order from your site again and recommend to others not to do so.

I have already made a complaint over receiving a Ticketmaster gift voucher from my son for Xmas last year when I went to use this in November I was told it expired. My son ordered through Crisco and never received this until November so we had no date of issue on the card so its very unfair that we have lost out. I have not received any feedback from my original complaint.

Ticketmaster is a deceptive sales organization. I bought tickets online for a local performance, and they added33% service fees to an already inflated seat price. When I received the full bill before the performance, I contacted them and asked that they resell my seats and give me a full refund. They refused, and kept asking me to speak to different managers on the phone. I contacted them 3 days before the performance and they still haven't acted. If they don't refund my money, I intend to dispute the transaction with my credit card company and advertise their unfair business practices widely. The service representatives were polite, but clearly weren't authorized to do right by their customers. I will never use their services again and encourage others to avoid dealing with this unethical company. The FTC slammed them in 2010 for deceptive practices wi8th a Springstein concert; they should get involved with them again!

They are the worst. Glitch when purchasing tickets and I am now out $200 for a concert 8 hours away. They refuse to give me event info to request a refund. I give them zero stars in terms of customer satisfaction.

What is going on with Green Day's Revolution Radio 2017 tickets? They were completely sold out within five minutes because of resale sites buying bundles upon bundles to sell for quadruple the initial price of the tickets. Many fans are disappointed because of the quick sales to reselling sites and have been left devoid of the tickets they wanted. Whose responsibility is it to prevent these resale sites from getting their disgusting mitts on these ticket bundles?

Even the Ticketmaster website contains a window to test if the buyer isn't a robot before the shopping cart page shows up and it still doesn't prevent mass sales to these resellers which I think is ridiculous, because if you're clamping down on bots, you should be able to clamp down on these websites mass buying Ticketmaster tickets to sell at their own outrageous prices. I hate the fact that a plethora of fans haven't been able to purchase tickets due to this reason and also that your site managers have the attention spans of burnt slices of toast and haven't analyzed this situation thoroughly.

Ticketmaster should know who purchases tickets so that you can pin down resellers and stop them in their tracks. The rapid sales were more than likely caused by this whole resale business, and I think that you should have been more attentive towards the suspicious sale speed. Significant rapid speed of ticket sales are bound to spark suspicion, so maybe if your managers had analyzed the quick sales, you might have been able to refuse sales to these suspicious buyers and the tickets would have been available to fans who actually deserve them.

Resetting password for US and UK seems to be impossible. Can't use new password to go to account. And can't retrieve info to reset new password. Is this the type of support customers expect from Ticketmaster? I need a phone number to call that actually takes me to a live human for help.

20

I sold tickets, gave them by bank information and they will not send me the money. I called the Ticketmaster customer service number and they hung up when I asked for my money back.

I have been very excited for my friends and I to see Britney Spears this coming August. I have been watching and waiting for 5 tickets for us to purchase. I saw some on the resale that were normally $69 plus fees and I had to pay $111 per ticket on the resale site(that is $22 more per ticket then they are worth). I was SO excited because the row was "AA" and even though it was the second section, I knew that it would be okay because it was in the As. Well come to find that the row is after Z. I was upset to say the least because its my 30th birthday and I do not want to be that far back. My friends were anxious to buy the seats by me but now they know that its that far back, they are not excited to purchase that row, which gives me another problem.

I thought I could try to sell them on resale but Ticketmaster charges fees to resale that I will be losing so much money on them, it is completely ridiculous. I over paid so much in the beginning for these $69 seats and now I am going to lose even more if I list them through their service. Unless I list them very low, they will not be competitive and I will never be able to resale them. If I list them on Ticketmaster's resale and make my $222 back that I originally paid, the other consumer will be paying $298, Ticketmaster making another $78 on seats. So because of Ticketmaster fees, $91 seats (including all fees) would be sold again for $149 a piece. Its completely unfair and ridiculous of them.

How is this fair, that in order for me to perhaps get rid of my tickets to buy better seats, I have to take a large hit for you Ticketmaster to make more money. Also, I cannot list them on another broker or site because Ticketmaster will not release me my tickets until 5 days before the concert.

I spent over 3 hours yesterday trying to redeem one of eleven vouchers to attend a concert in California-live in Arizona, but no venues are listed. I tried every voucher-11 got kicked out each time at the submission-because there was a message that said sorry-temporarily not working-go back to last page. I did that, got no where and tried over and over to get it to accept. Finally after two hours it didn't give me the not working message, but needed my cin-for credit card on line. I added it and continued on with utter frustration.

Finally it stated that I received two tickets-----on my credit card. Called Ticketmaster immediately, waited 25 minutes on my cell phone and was told sorry...we will cancel your tickets. Three hours later and high blood pressure. Then I had spend time trying to get rid of the insurance on my card for tickets I don't have. We were willing to drive to California from Arizona since no voucher concerts were in Arizona, but this is just a joke. In California, not Arizona, what does it matter.

20

I have just got back from Download 2016 and I did not get a voucher to collect 3 programs could some kind person please post them onto me . A person at Ticketmaster said I had to do it this way Ref No 19 - 31936 The programs have already been paid for.

Paid £440 for two premium tickets for Rod Stewart Concert on 17th June, I have received them but then noticed that the tickets were priced at £95;00 each, so basically the have maid a £ 200 pound prifit from me. I contacted ticketmaster via the phone and was told that they were good tickets and that they were printed by a third party, surely they should not be able to charge extortionate prices in the first place was not happy with my reply from customer service, I have also emailed them but have received no reply from them.

40

Their mobile site is absolutely abysmal. Impossible to use, insists my password is incorrect yet it allows me to log on on desktop browsers. The reset password page never works and essentially renders it nearly impossible to use the website on my phone. Nothing but horrible experiences from their mobile service.

On march 22, 2016, my husband and i purchase three gate passes for all three copa america games in seattle online via ticketmaster. As i have had difficult experiences in the past with this company i took screenshots through the process; i have evidence of every step of the purchase process.

Our transaction was completed, we received confirmation and an email with a link to our order. I immediately clicked on the link and reviewed my order and found it to be perfect with the exception that there was no indication as to a delivery date for our tickets via regular mail. I immediately went online and initiated an online chat with a ticketmaster agent. "sydney" the agent who assisted explicitly stated - and i have a transcript from ticketmaster of this chat - that we would receive three "3-game packages" to this game via regular mail.

Hours later with my son home - the tickets were a surprise for him - i returned to the email, clicked on the same aforementioned link and reviewed our order with my son. This time, however, the order had been altered. Previously the order reflected what we had purchased three "3-game packages". Now, the order says we purchased three tickets to a single game. I went so far as to check online and see that our seats were available for purchase online for the other two games. I immediately contacted ticketmaster.

The first man i spoke with told me without hesitation that i was wrong, "you didnt purchase a three game package you bought one game," so i asked for an email address so he could see my screenshots and he immediately informed me that i had altered my screenshots which of course i had not. I exhausted myself trying to discuss the issue with this man and finally resorted to asking for a supervisor.

The second man that attended to my call introduced himself as a supervisor but later in our conversation admitted that he was not and that he had no ability to rectify the situation. Again, i asked for a supervisor.

After being on hold for some time - at this point my time counter on my phone said i had been talking and on hold for more than an hour - my call was accepted by ms elaine zambrana-chavez who told me she was "as senior as it gets in the customer service department of ticketmaster." once again, i explained the situation.

Ms zambrana-chavez was no better than the other two and possibly worse. She asked me if i was serious at one point and went so far as to say "even if our website glitches and this is what it sold you, how could you think you'd actually receive that for that price?"

To be honest, i haven't any clue of the value difference between three games and a single game for special cups such as this one. I have purchased soccer tickets all over the world and this was exceptionally expensive, so in all honestly it made sense to me that this price was for three-three game passes.

At any rate. Elaine finally agreed to accept my screenshots and "show them to her i.t. department and look into it." she said she would get back to me in three or four days; that was three weeks ago. One week ago i sent her another email asking if she was going to be sorting this out and i have not received any response. I have called the direct line number she gave me, also, and it is not a ticketmaster number - she lied.

These games are around the corner and our money has been paid but we are without what we purchased. This type of behavior is abusive and, further, it's illegal. I remain hopeful that the individuals i have dealt with thus far are not representative of the whole and this process can find me someone to get this all rectified.Please note: any person wishing to view the extensive screenshots and emails i have regarding this can feel free to email me and all evidence can be confirmed. Thank you.

I purchased tickets for the Garth Brooks concert in Louisville Ky for April 9th @7. When I purchased my tickets the day, hour they went on sale there was only one show advertised. Later it was advertised that they added 3 more shows. When I got to the concert on my date and time I was surprised to find that my tickets were for the night before. I did not purchase for the night before they were not even available!!I had bought 4 tickets. This was and EVENT for me and the ladies accompanying me. I had to purchase 4 more tickets! This was completely ridiculous!

There were at least 25-30 other people who experienced the same problem. Either they had to repurchase like me or they left disappointed. That many people don't just overlook a concert that they have waited years to attend. I emailed ticket master as soon as i got home and have not heard anything other than that they received my email and would call in 12 -24 hours. I'm certain the back log is due to SO many perturbed customers. Ticketmaster made this error and should refund the tickets no doubt.

20

My password is locked out. I can't through automated system. It just goes in circles. There is no live help. My information can't be pulled up spent 15 min on hold. What a nightmare trying to call the Ticketmaster customer service phone number. They hung up on me several times.

12/17/15 late evening: I accidentally ordered tickets for Dec 18 rather than Jan 18 For 7PM, Blue Man Group, Las Vegas. I requested an exchange of dates from Ticketmaster. Natalia with Ticketmaster Fan Support responded via email that she would help with the request. She asked what time I wanted the tickets for. I responded to Ticketmaster with the requested time (no change in time requested). I contacted Ticketmaster letting them know I had seen no movement in the exchange of my tickets. BTW, The Blue Man Group had TONS of seats available for the Dec 18 show I accidentally booked. Ticketmaster sends me a reply stating that my tickets were cancelled bk I did not call or reply on time.

I called ticketmaster and am told that I did not respond in time, even thought I had called within 1 hour of their request. I requested a supervisor. I talked to Jonathan Esqueda at Tier 2 escalation Dept. The call ended at 4:05 PM after being on the phone with 3 people (one call was dropped) for over an hour. Johnathan told me that Naatlia should not have offered me the exchange. "I am not standing by the representative because the representative was wrong". When asked about the lag time between my request on 12/18/15 at 9?24 AM and Ticketmaster's response on Dec. 20, 2015 at 11:51 AM. Mr. Esqueda replied that Ticketmaster is "backed up on emails because of Adele."

The reason this is important is bk Esqueda said earlier that the tickets could not be exchanged bk the event had past. But I had requested a change prior to the event. At this point, I am out $300 for hitting the wrong button on the computer! Originally, I was told that I did not respond in time. When it was proven that I had responded within 1 hour, the problem became that representative Natalia had misbehaved. When it was pointed out that, if Ticketmaster had responded quicker the event would not have passed, the cause of the problem was Adele! You can't make this stuff up!

40

I was in-line via website for Adele tickets for her Oakland concert. I got my seats, section 118 for 3 and hit okay to purchase. I was then kicked out and put back in-line only to wait another additional 20 mins to find that no more tickets were available. I don't understand why I was kicked out during the option to enter my CC information? Why wait in line for 20 mins only to have your system kick me out? I contacted Ticketmaster customer service by phone and email and nobody can correct this issue for me so far.

I purchased three tickets for Walk the Moon at Manchester Ritz on 25/11/15 back on 26/06/15. The gig was cancelled by the band via press release on 21/11/15, and brought to my attention the same day, however I awaiting confirmation from Ticketmaster. I heard nothing so emailed the Ticketmaster complaint department on the 23rd November and received nothing back. On their website they have advised they will be reaching out to all customer to discuss this. I attempted to contact via the customer service phone number and was greeted with an automated message that the advisors were all busy and could not take me call, but instead of giving me hold music, simply redirected me to the website and terminated the call.

I attempted an email from my personal inbox replying to my customer service email containing my tickets on 2nd December and had no response, and I also emailed via customer complaints, after attempting to call on more than one occasion on 9th December. I have received no refund, no confirmation of them recieving my emails, not even a notification the gig was cancelled and for all they know I could have had transport and accommodation booked? I am becoming more and more furious at the lack of professionalism and customer care this company have shown me as a customer, and I see no other reason apart from the fact they don't wish me to get my money back. My booking reference is 35-48486/UK5.

I went on ticketmaster on Thursday November 12 to purchase 3 raptors tickets for $897. Since I am buying 3 tickets, I used my friend's business credit card. He was beside me while I do this. The order went through and I received the confirmation order number 11-32922/TOR. I went on the side and print off the tickets on the next morning November 13 which is also the game day. When I got there, the tickets didn't work and the guy said the tickets are refund. I was so embarrassed and left. I went home and checked online and it indicates that the order has been cancelled. Why I never received a notification for the cancellation? I called the customer service call center and they are saying that the phone information that I used is incorrect. They called that number and the person that picks up the call didn't now who i am.

Of course that person wouldn't knew since I am using his boss's business credit card. Probably his credit card uses his cell phone rather than his office phone. However, I really don't understand why you guys ask for the phone number/ address and stuff like that. Most online purchase only ask for credit number,expire etc. I am really upset how ticketmaster handle the situation. You guys didn't attempt to contact me or at least send me a notification e-mail to indicate that the order is cancelled due to. I wasted parking money and time there and I looked like a fool at that moment. You guys need to notify your customer if issues arise. If I didn't check online, I wouldn't know the status has changed to cancelled order. If i didn't call the call centre and fraud department, I wouldn't even know what even happened. I am extremely upset and I hope you guys can do something about it. Hope ticketmaster complaint department can give me a proper and reasonable response.

I got a horrible experience, I purchase 4 tickets to an event on saturday. after driving for 2 hours I got to the event and my seats were behind the lights and I could not see anything. I should have a refund. The experience was horrible. Ticketmaster doesn't even have a place on their site to submit a claim or anywhere to contact customer support. I guess they don't want to know when people are upset!

40

I purchased tickets for my daughter and her partner to see Monford and sons at the Riverside theatre Brisbane. She called today to tell me they couldn't hear the event and left early. They complained at the event with many others but were told they could do nothing about it! I have purchased many tickets for events at the Riverside, in fact last nights event the Hooziers were purchased by me with no problems. Ticketmaster should give some sort of a refund don't you think?

60

Ticketmaster customer service didn't even care that their name was used in a fraudulent ticket sale. It was a total scam that someone sent me with Ticketmasters name. I contacted Ticketmaster by email several times and they were rude and didn't care that I got scammed. They said We Told You Several Times That This ISN'T our issue!!! It is your god damn issue if someone is using your name to commit fraud!!!

20

I have been trying for an hour to contact customer servicer. I don't mind being on hold I understand there are only so many people that can help and I am quite patient , but to be disconnected 3 times after 15 minute of holding I find to be terribly disrespectful and horrible customer service. Not only that but it is now 9:54 on a Wednesday morning and I am told that customer service is closed and my call will be disconnected. This is by far the worst customer service experience I have had in a very long time!

40

I recently purchased some tickets via the Ticketmaster phone line for a client of mine within The Disability Trust. The woman on the phone was very rude & hung up on me before I could confirm that the appropriate delivery address had been recorded. I was also unable to inquire about a receipt due to the attendant repeatedly talking over the top of me & then hanging up on me. I have not yet received the tickets & have no way of knowing where they are as no reference was provided. $79.86 was taken by Ticketmaster from our company credit card in the name of Denise Yalda on 2/7/15. Is there any way to advise me of the location of this clients ticket? Help section of the website is ironically no help!

40

Every time I purchase tickets, before the event I have to call ticketmaster because I am unable to print my tickets. The order number always changes and I have to call them and be on hold for a hour to resolve my problem. If the order number changes, why doesn't ticketmaster update the customers account? This isn't the first time this has happened, its intentional! They cannot correct the problem so they always have to email me the tickets. This is unacceptable for a large company, I believe they do this so to try to make customers buy another ticket to the event they already paid for. If I paid for the ticket and cannot access it, what's the point of ordering online?

Bought tickets to see threasa caputo In section floor 4 row j seats 7 and 8. When we arrived at show they changed our seats to floor4 row jj seats 15 and 16. When we went to find our seats other people were seated there, they were giving the same seats as ours. We were then moved to the balcony in row ee seats 12 and 13. We paid to be on the floor for this show, we were very unhappy with the out come of the sitting arrangement. We feel the free drink or hotdog didn't make up for not being seated for where we paid for.

20

I purchased tickets for the NBA Clippers Vs Spurs PLAYOFFS ROUND 1 GAME 1
Date is WRONG on the ticket. Ispent $70 on UBER transportation to get to the Staple Centre, and when I get there, got told the game is actually tomorrow (SUN 19th April), the ticket displayed as SAT 19th April. I am a visitor from Sydney. I never know the service here is that poor. I called them. All they did was apologies, no refund on my transportation or other beneficial complement. This is not how you treat your customers!!!!

20

They advertise "pre-sale" for Rolling Stones in Milwaukee, but of course, no matter how hard you try, no tickets are available. However, ticket brokers list tons of tickets with seat location. How do they get them before the tickets go on sale to anyone????
Average person has absolutely no chance. Ticketmaster needs to find a way for internet users to get tickets easily and efficiently.

I purchased tickets for Monster Jam at Baton Rouge River Center for the march 7 showing along with 2 MJ tour tags . I had to pay 18.50 for shipping due to I could not print out my tickets because of the purchase of the lanyards. When I got my package there were no lanyards in package. I called your customer service supervisor and he informed me that the lanyards were being shipped from somewhere else and may not arrive in time for the event. I asked for a refund and I was told that it was stated on the online order that would happen. I went to the on line and proceeded to purchase the same order and there was nothing of the sort message in that order. My order number #58-55943/SCS. I have purchased tickets with your establishment many times before but this was not resolved as I anticipated and will no longer use your company for anymore purchases and will give bad recommendations to everyone I know .

I have been trying for almost a week to get a hold of customer service. Every time I called I receieved a busy signal, I called another number and it said that they were experiencing high call volumes and did not give me the option to be put on hold or give a call back number. I also left 2 emails and never received a response. I don't want to have to call ticketmaster every day. This is ridiculous and terrible service.

I have used different sites over the years to by tickets but believe this is the most trusted by far and the easiest way to buy tickets online.  I use ticketmaster every time I go to a concert.  it’s easy, fast and convenient.  Wouldn’t buy tickets any other way.  You can risk it by going to another vendor that might seem cheaper but trust me it's not worth it in the end.  Just ask the people who have showed up to an event only to find out their tickets were bogus and they got scammed.

I bought tickets online today 4/3/14 for penatonix at the Beacon theatre 2000 0008 0799 2220 6 . After being unable to print the tickets online, i called FanHelp which you recommended. I called the number again after waiting for a live person because your automated line was again of no help. After waiting 10minutes, I was talking to an operator. I was informed this was a resale ticket and I was not in the right area so I was to be transferred. After waiting 5 more minutes, they transferred me to the Platinum account area and told me I was in the wrong area. I was transferred again for about 5 minutes wait and spoke to your resale dept who told me to pick up my tickets at the box office. I told the person who I was talking to after this experience I would prefer to print out the tickets so I have them in my hands and not be disappointed at the box office because of someone else not doing their job. She put me on hold and after a time I was hung up on.

I tried the process again and again they transferred me to the platinum area. His name was Joe{since I decided to start getting names} Joe transferred me but no one picked up after 15 minutes, and he never checked to see if I was still on the line. I hung up and redialed.. After another good 20 minutes and the same procedure I finally talked to Alex in resale. A friendly man but said I had to check my account every 20 minutes to see if they posted my tickets. I told him it was my day off, I already wasted an hour and a half, to please speak to a supervisor. I was then put on the phone with Elaine who told me she didn’t give last names . Small note I had to ask her three times to speak up because she wasn’t clear in her speech. She told me that it’s because it was my first resale, and my account was under review. I informed her your company had no problem taking my money and why should there be a problem now. I have bought many tickets thru Ticketmaster in the past. She told me she was working on my tickets and I had stopped her from doing it . she also told me that someone would call to verify that it was me. I said that’s crazy you have me on the line now ask me questions and verify me now.

She said it wasn’t the way it worked and that someone would call. I told her the tickets were for today and how long would it take because it was my day off . I asked if it would be a half hour an hour, two hours tell me . She said she didn’t know. I said on my day off am I suppose to sit by a phone all day to see if I get my tickets on something I already purchased. Again she said well if you let me work on it , your tickets will get there faster. By the way I was told she is not called a supervisor but an escalation specialist…My question is are you trying to escalate problems because it seems to me you’re getting very good at your goal.

We filed a ticket mess-up on Feb 26 and received the titled file number. There was an automatic reply saying they would reply in 5 days but they didn’t. I didn’t give up and followed up and received an E-mail from Sophia Aberson on Mar 13th saying they are contacting the supplier. We haven’t heard from them ever since. I sent another E-mail and failed to received any reply. This matter is going for too long and your credibility is waning. Please, can you take a look into our request and rectify the situation. Here is what happened:

Dear Ticketmaster, Cecilia Wang bought two tickets for the event and her friend couldn’t come so she sold row 1 seat 38 to me. She arrived earlier at the event. Your colleague printed two new tickets for her. She went in with ticket row 1 seat 39 and left behind the other one with her checked iPad thinking I should be be able to go in with my E-ticket. When I arrived with my E-ticket, I was denied access. Your agent by the name Wesley asked if I had the new ticket and of course I didn’t and ignored what had happened. He then told me the seller cancelled the other ticket and made me think I was scammed. He made me purchase a new ticket for 178 euros and significantly delayed my entry. He even suggested that I go and file a police report. By the time I found Miss Wang at Row 1 Seat 39 and clarified everything, the concert almost started.

When we came out after the concert, your staff already left. Your technical issue was the cause of all this confusion and the unnecessary stress that compromised a would-be prefect experience. I solemnly request the reimbursement of 178 euros for the third ticket that we purchased. This is my first time in Holland. In stead of sightseeing, I am miserably composing this E-mail this morning, desperately hoping this matter can be taken care of. My flight for Shanghai leaves at 17:40 today from Amsterdam, if you can reply or give me a call at +86 13816896251, the rest of my journey will be much more pleasant.

I went to My Ticketmaster and to log in I put my email address in. I did that. I forgot my password so i got a temp password from a ticketmaster representative . Didn’t work! Phoned again and received another one. It didn’t work either. so by then I had used up my tries and it locked my account! I NEVER did get my presale tickets. I still don’t have access to know what password to use to get into my ticketmaster account.

I finally on the day of public sales used the Ticketmaster express which was very nice. When I called to confirm by human a ticketmaster rep named “Carlos” switched me to another customer service rep in CANADA. WHY? Who knows, right? By the way I am a U.S. resident.

I would like to be able to use My ticketmaster for presale events coming up. Can ANYONE help me? I need to get a password that will work so I can log in. HELP TICKETMASTER!!!!!!!!

The following is a letter sent to Ticketmaster. If you have anything to add please feel free. Please contact Ticketmaster with your outrage about this situation. We have a web site which is seeking people who have been deceived by your service to get tickets to the upcoming Bruce Springsteen Concerts in New Jersey. I have been in contact with an attorney who is currently on a fact finding mission to gather information in which to bring a class action lawsuit against your company. As we see it your company was charged with the responsibility to sell tickets to the events through your web site on a first come basis.

Many people had logged on and were given a place in line with a descending wait time in order to purchase tickets. When the time reached 2 minutes, all of a sudden the wait time started to ascend to 15 minutes or more and subsequently never connected to purchase tickets. This has been a repeating scenario with the hundreds of people who have contacted us. We also noted that on line ticket scalpers had an abundance of tickets for these events available immediately after the events went on sale.

We contend that as a representative, Ticketmaster, charged with the sale of tickets for this event and knowing that the threat of hacking was eminent, did not take the proper precautions to guard against this threat thereby causing the general public to obtain tickets through other outlets at a much higher cost than face value. Just wanted to let you know there is a growing number of people that are sick and tired of jumping through hoops to get tickets just to support the artists they enjoy. Hopefully the attorney finds enough evidence to pursue this matter.

I ordered a Norfolk Spectacular ticket it looks like 3 payments have been taken from my bank i only require 1 ticket which only mean 1 payment. Please re inverse my monies and i would like a manager to call as i have been on hold for 25 minutes so gave up trying and hung up. I am not happy as i have limited funds in my accaount as it is and you have taken what funds i did have and now i am over drawn and will be charged and if i am do be sure i will be sending you the bill. I would much appreciate it if you could refund me asap all my money as i dont even want the 1 ticket now. I would not recommend you to anybody and have had a terrible experience.

Ticketmaster claimed the Fan Club Presale starts at 10 am. When in fact it was 10 minutes after!!!! I had my presale code for Keith Urban. The closest seats on the floor they gave me was row 18!!! Thats bull crap. I kept trying on ticketmaster for another 10 minutes for closer seats and all the seats for the presale were sold out????? Where do the closer seats go???? The presale is supposed to be Monkeyville members only. Supposed to be a chance of great seats before the public sale starts. I guess I have to go to a SCALPER!!!!! They apparentley get all the great seats. Typical ticketmaster BULL SH*&!!!!!

I don’t buy tickets very often because I have panic attacks when I know that I have to go through Ticketmaster. This experience was no exception! My cousin had no luck on the Ticketmaster website so she contacted me to try calling. I was at work and couldn’t spend a ton of time trying to call you to find out if the show was sold out.  Ticketmaster has to be kidding me!!! I am completely stumped as to why any building or promoter would use their services to piss off their customers. Never again will I allow Ticketmaster to frustrate me and waste my time. No artist is important enough as far as I am concerned.

I went on-line to Ticketmaster to purchase tickets for a Taylor Swift concert for my little girl. I did this immediately as the tickets went on-sale. I placed the order for the number of tickets, the message said to hold and gave an approximate wait time that would go down a minute and back up four, when I finally get to the Ticketmaster checkout – after the numerous additional fees that they want to charge, I entered in my credit card information and the site asked for a passcode, I entered this information in and it wouldn’t take it, so I went reset this, and it still wouldn’t take it.

So while I’m waiting for their site to respond, they timed out my order. I went to refresh the order and Ticketmaster kicked me out. This was Ticketmasters site that did this! They are a monopoly, as every other site that offers tickets all refer back to their site! They need to be broken up!

I ordered tickets to a show from Ticketmaster. At the box office, my friend was to pick up the tickets but did not have my credit card, which was used to buy, so they would not give him the tickets, so they did not go into the show. My other friend went to the seats and found out someone had later bought these for cash at the box office. Tickmaster would not refund my money. Mastercard would not honor it when I asked for them to not pay mastercard, so I ate the tickets, Ticketmaster got their fees, the SHow got their fees, and the ticket window worker pocketed $200 cash. What a scam.

I spent two hours on Friday trying to finalize two seats at ticket master. When I got to the payment part it went blank after it said my payment was approved, but I couldn’t get to the confirmation to get the tickets. I went through this process again and again for over two hours. I kept checking to see if they took out the payment and they didn’t so I kept trying. When I got home I tried again but the tickets I wanted had been sold. I don’t think it is fair that ticket master is the only way to get tickets to shows. If you want to see a freakin show you should be able to shop around, but noooo you can only buy them through ticket smasher. What a monopoly!

Have feedback for Ticketmaster?

Thanks for your feedback!

Sorry. Please try again later!
