Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this matter. At Online City Tickets, we value our customers and would like to take the time to address this matter. In reference to Ms. [redacted] concern about the face value of her tickets, it should be noted that Online City Tickets is an online resale marketplace. This means that we do not own or generate tickets—instead, we merely facilitate transactions between ticket buyers and ticket sellers. This fact is noted on every ticket and checkout page and at the top of our homepage with the statement: “We are a resale marketplace, not a box office or venue. Ticket prices may exceed face value. This site is not owned by any venue or box office." Because customers are purchasing tickets owned by individual sellers, we must ensure that our policies are fair to both parties. This means that we are unable to offer cancellations and must adhere to an "all sales are final" policy—a standard throughout the industry. This policy is disclosed throughout the purchase process—from a notice on every ticket page to a sales terms statement displayed at checkout with the message “All sales are final. All prices are listed in US Dollars (USD).” With regard to Ms. [redacted] claim that our website provided incorrect information about the availability of tickets, it must be noted that this is inaccurate. The availability of tickets on our website is completely dependent upon a fluctuating market, and quantities for this event are low. When Ms. [redacted] selected tickets and received the message that few tickets were left in the section, that message was referring to ticket availability on our website. Online City Tickets is not aware of availability on other markets. Ms. [redacted] valid tickets were delivered to her, and she has since confirmed that she has received them. As such, Online City Tickets has fully adhered to the terms and conditions to which Ms. [redacted] agreed prior to purchase. Additionally, we have reached out to Ms. [redacted] in an attempt to provide a resolution to this matter, but we have not been successful in reaching her by phone or email. If Ms. [redacted] would like to discuss a resolution, or if she has any other questions or concerns, we encourage her to reach out to our customer service team. At this time, we consider this matter closed. Regards, Online City Tickets

Thank you for reaching out to us and bringing this matter to our attentionAt Online City Tickets, we value our customers and would like to take the time to address Ms [redacted] concernsMs [redacted] has stated that we are a private seller, to this we would like to provide clarificationOnline City Tickets is an online resale marketplace, which means we do not own or generate tickets?"instead, we merely facilitate transactions between ticket buyers and ticket sellersDirectly on our website it states, “We are a resale marketplace, not a box office or venueTicket prices may exceed face valueThis site is not owned by any venue or box office."?

Because Online City Tickets does not own or generate tickets, the prices are set by the individual sellers based on a range of marketing factors such as customer demandThis means the price is not based on the tickets' original price, or face value, and may be higher or lower than that amount displayed on the ticketsThis information is also stated throughout our websiteIt also means that the largest portion of any order placed in our marketplace goes directly to the sellerThe service fee is in place to cover operational expenses such as facilitating transactions, screening sellers, maintaining the website, and providing customer service.?

Immediate response with tickets sent
Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: This is a totally unacceptable response.? I spoke with [redacted] at Online City? Tickets and he recited the same as the responseThey would not come to a resolution and this is not good business practice and charging a service charge of $190.20, for what reason?? The tickets that printed were in fact Ticketmaster tickets.? I have since read several reviews online and this company is very deceptive in its advertising and [redacted] made me feel like I was ignorant.? I was in the Travel Industry for years and hired companies in Mexico, Caribbean, Central America and Hawaii which included holding these companies to customer service expectations so that ? customers would book their vacations with our company vsthe competition.? Before that I was in the banking industry, customer service supervisor? This is not customer service and [redacted] was very rude.? I want this resubmitted and expect my refund of $or the choice of tickets for another event with better seats which ever is more [redacted]
I was initially charged $on my bank account before I submitted an order and I also didn't like that there was the price advertised and than additional cost for downloads especially when I am printing the tickets with my own ink and using my own paperAnd the price for download for tickets is 2x the price for itI don't have to do that when I order tickets elsewhere for the [redacted] center

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me Sincerely, Christina [redacted]
Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: I am rejecting this response because:the deceptive practice you are continuing to use is to not disclose the associated fees nor the line items associated with the total chargeInstead you asked the consumer to agree to, and make, an uninformed decisionThat's not a good look on your company nor your practicesTherefore, because you do not believe in (nor practice) full discolure, as almost every legitimate business does, Mrs [redacted] had to falsely assume the had a proportional valueUpon further research we discovered just how over inflated the pricing was (which was not disclosed in detail by said company)Had she been informed of the amount of fees associated with the final charge and all the other charges, she would have been able to understand and compare your offer against other outlets and make an informed decisionThis is why it is so important for the Revdex.com to get involved--to either help motivate you to correct your common practice of non-discolure or to make everyone else aware to help protect themHow is a consumer supposed to be able to evaluate your offer versus other offers when you did not disclose all line items totaling the $We did not use the tickets because we did not feel it would be honest to use them and ask for a full refundWe disclosed this to you prior to the event and you made no cencessions to refund us any funds at that timeWe are seeking a refund or full credit pleaseThank youSincerely, [redacted]
The tickets I received had someone else's name on them and a lower price than what I had paid I had no idea this service was a third party service, and that is nowhere listed on your website! I am appalled at this lack of transparency, and I will no longer be using your service If I purchase tickets to another event at Budwiser events center, I will use another vendor! I am most displeased!
