Buyer Be Aware… Ticket Master doesn't stand by their customer when they mess up.

I purchased 2 concert tickets through my ticket master account for a Christmas gift. I was very bummed when the communication I received was that my mobile tickets would be available 12/27/23. It still says that on my account. Well here we are on 2/17/24 and I never received the tickets. The first time I reached out I was told I would have hard copy tickets in 10 days. That was on 12/30/23. 3 days after my mobile tickets were supposed to be available. The second time they said 2 weeks before the event. Not sure if they are mobile or hard copy tickets. After sharing the info that I was promised something by a specific date that I have yet to receive and asking for a refund, Ticket Master says I should receive them in July about 2 weeks before the event and will not refund them. 6.5 months later than promised. This has caused so much anxiety because I don't know if I can believe anything they say now. I could be out 800 dollars and/ or not have an opportunity to purchase these tickets again 2 weeks before the event. Buyer be more than aware.

BCA's Summary and Analysis:

Although we have received a number of complaints against this company we feel that the number of complaints is not disproportionate to the amount of business the company transacts. Complainants allege non delivery of tickets duplicated tickets dissemination of incorrect ticket information or that internet orders are not processed. Some customers complain they incurr unauthorized credit card charges on monthly billing statements for products or services they did not order which they claim are a direct result of using the company's website. In other cases customers allege they encounter difficulty obtaining refunds the company charges previously undisclosed handling fees for cancellations or that discounts or poromotional offers are not honored. Several customers expressed dissatisfaction with the seating locations claiming the seats were described as """"best available """" Customers claim seats were actually behind the stage or view of the stage was obstructed by cables wires or other items which almost completely blocked their ability to see the event they paid for. ~~The company responds to a few complaints by issuing refunds or credits delivering tickets or stating complaints have been adjusted. Some responses offer explanations for changes in event scheduling citing reasons as beyond the control of their company. In other cases customers are directed to contact event promotors to request refunds. The company addresses complaints concerning third party promotional offers by providing direct contact information for the offer in question. The company offers explanations regarding seating complaints explaining that a computer is responsible for assigning seats to events and maintain that all sales are final.

Comments and Analysis

This company offers event ticketing services. They are not the actual promotor of the events they sell tickets for. In the event of a cancellation by either party it may be necessary to seek a refund from the event promotion company and not the ticketing service. The company has also informed us that via their website they also provide third party promotional opportunities in which customers have the option of participating in. These may include but are not limited to participating in third party sales or promotional offers by Entertainment Rewards and Travelers Advantage. Ticketmaster advises that for faster and more efficient results regarding questions concerns or disputes pertaining to third party sales or promotional offers the third parties must be contacted directly for any inquires about their products and services. The company advises for any questions or concerns with Entertainment Rewards please visit www/entertainment.com and regarding Travele Advantage please visit ww.trilegiant.com/programs/travelersadvantage.html~ ~Some third party offers made available on the company's website may be presented with a negative option cancellation. With this method products and services are sent to consumers unsolicited and unauthorized charges appear on credit cards. Usually materials sent with the product or service will allow a specified time period for cancellation and return without penalty or obligation. However many overlook the advisory and are unaware of the charge until their next monthly credit card statement. In some cases consumers find they are unable to contact the company to arrange returns or ask for credit. Most credit card issuers will allow the cardholder 60 days to dispute an unauthorized or inaccurate charge. Review your monthly statement carefully. If you discover a charge which is unfamiliar investigate and dispute the amount with your card issuer as soon as possible to protect yourself from making unwanted purchases.
