TicketsOnSale is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
My event was 6 months away. My friends received their tickets at the time of their purchase, I received a purchase notice that my tickets would be delivered 3 weeks prior to my event.
I shrugged off the delay and said ok great I saved a few bucks now I just wait.
The time for my ticket delivery came and went. I emailed/live chatted with them over a dozen times trying to get my tickets by the date I was promised; they did not arrive but they always said the same thing "don't worry you'll have your tickets before your event".
Over 2 months before the event I knew that I could no longer attend and wanted to recoup some of the value of my tickets… but I could not because I had no tickets to sell.
I received my tickets on the day of the event only 5 hours before the event was taking place; only after calling and waiting over 2 hours on the phone for customer service to tell me the exact same thing "you'll receive them before the event". At this point I couldn't resell the tickets and had to eat the total price.
My advise, if you want to risk having to spend countless hours writing this emails/chatting with customer support just to be disappointed, this is the right company for you.
AVOID WITH A 10 FOOT POLE.

Your company fracking sucks. Thanks for treating your customers like $#*! and telling them to recoup their money by reselling them. Great, stupid idea but that is not my responsibility. Thank you for stealing my money and frack this company. I will be telling everyone i know and my friends online and tell them to go somewhere else to get tickets. Plus I will always tell it like it is. Your company is a thieving piece of $#*!.
My grievance is that TicketsOnSale changed their refund policy after Covid hit and well after I paid for the tickets such that even if the concert is canceled they will now only issue me a credit towards other tickets from them. That's not really ok. I don't think that is how agreements work. It's especially frustrating because they stand by the new policy like it's the one answer to everything, but as we have learned that answer can change at their will. End result - I am now in a position to wait a year to see if a concert is canceled at which time I can only use the company credit to get more tickets. I do understand that they have to change their business model to stay in business. The ticket resale market has taken an enormous hit because of the virus. I hope it works out and trust that TicketsonSale is doing their best to do right by their customers. I probably won't be buying concert tickets from anyone for a long time until there is more stability in the marketplace.
I attached their refund policy below. It states "if the even is cancelled we will refund the purchase price or provide credit" I asked for credit back and TicketsOnSale are refusing to honor this because of "government shutdowns and them only being a marketplace between sellers and consumers" so "their sellers are not going to be reimbursed".
I filed a claim with my credit card company in which TicketsOnSale responded with a threat in regards to their are willing to provide terms and conditions in which I agreed to upon purchase. My purchase was on Feb 2020 before any shutdowns and their policy stated what I mentioned above so when I purchased I agreed to the said terms and conditions before they changed it...
In addition, you can't get in contact with customer service agents through their phone number on file it just is an automated system that answers questions about the venue and how they "operate". Even with opting to chat live with them online, they only offer the same automated system. When emailing them you get a different person every time. In addition they keep saying that my money cannot be refunded.
So unless you want to waste your money or have a company that always changes their policies to make sure they don't reimburse you, DON'T GO THROUGH THEM! They're not even on any website so I think its a scam and their email is "bolivia time" so who knows where your money goes..
Adding insult to injury, we paid $270 for 2 seats and could have got them directly from the Ordway for $130, shame on me! Tried their customer service to get a refund or exchange but got no where. I see they also somehow manage some reviews to get a favorable rating but this website correctly shows them as awful. I hope this saves someone else from being ripped off.
The long: ToS was quick to take my money many months before the show. Everything on the date of sale and all e-correspondence thereafter clearly stated mine was to be an e-ticket with a link delivered the day before the show (Friday night). On Monday of that week I received a phone call from a ToS rep asking to confirm my shipping address for the paper ticket. I pointed out it was supposed to be an e-Ticket but she said she had it in hand and was going to overnight it. With no other choice I said fine but be sure it's overnight as I leave south Florida for New Orleans early Thursday morning... 36 hours before the event. "Sure, no problem. I'll email you the tracking info." On Wednesday, 18 hours before I was scheduled to leave I called and the rep said the ticket had just been overnighted that morning. For delivery after I'd already left for the airport. It arrived in south Florida and my Doctor wife had to take time away from her patients to FedEx me the friggin paper ticket! No amount of Chat assistance and ToS telling me how much TicketsOnSale cared and were sorry solved my problem. ToS customer service and procedures suck and I will not use them ever again.
I could not attend because the date was moved two days before thanksgiving. I asked for a refund and the agent told me with such insensitivity that I have to resell them through google or Facebook. Imagine a third party vendor like tickets on sale trying to tell me how to get sell tickets.
I asked to escalate to a supervisor or manager and he refused and kept saying to me "is there anything else?"
Save your money and do not buy anything from this horrible company. I wished I read reviews because TicketsOnSale are coming up as 2 stars which in my opinion is 1 star too many. How do businesses like this survive?
This company is an absolute scam, please dont fall for it like i did. Purchased a $300 front row ticket to a country concert that was rescheduled 3 times, then all the headline artists pulled out. TicketsonSale has NOBODY to talk to (every call option, email, and live chat is a dead end. Trust me ive been trying for weeks). Once you pay there is absolutely no way to get back your money. I even bought the "insurance" which turns out to be worthless because TicketsOnSale will deny any claim you file at all (i have friends at different concerts get denied as well... even if the concert is cancelled). Its all just a lure with low prices, and if ANY minor issue occurs you are stiffed with your payment. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. GO TO A REPUTABLE SELLER. What this business does is a crime
Absolutely stay away! Their fees are also excessive. I had made my purchase via PayPal and a Credit Card with purchaser protections, but that wouldn't have saved me on the hotel etc.
I did finally get my tickets. 1 day before the event. This is absurd. The tickets could've been sent to me 3 months prior.
We live in Fredericton, NB and were driving there on Saturday, Sept 25th giving us plenty of time.
We received and email Friday afternoon at 5:45pm Sept. 24th that the concert has been rescheduled to Saturday, Sept. 25th at 1pm.
We received this less than 24 hours notice and the new date was 4 days earlier than the original date?
We immediately requested a refund as the re-scheduled time was ridiculous and impossible for us to get there. TicketsOnSale basically told us to go pound sand and no refund would be given because it was rescheduled and we should be happy with that.
I asked them if it had been rescheduled for 35 years later if that was still a reasonable solution and they said nothing.
Stay away from this ticket company, not legit and a big scam.
Just because the fine print says it can be rescheduled doesn't make it right if they reschedule it at a time that is unreasonable. This company has FRAUD written all over it! Stay away from them or expect to be taken. We were but will make every effort to let everyone know via social media.
Ticket Master purchase was made on July 15th, 2021
Event was cancelled on July 16th, 2021
The timing of the cancellation and your company's response that no refunds would be issued was not conducted in good faith.
If this is not remedied with a full refund as I requested in the near future, I will seek legal action on the grounds that the company is a fraud and presented themselves as a part of the Ticketmaster team and did not act in good faith. This is also a poor reflection of the Ticketmaster company and how TicketsOnSale conduct business.
Do not use this company nor support Ticketmaster if they can't control their resellers.
