Event Tickets Center Reviews

This "company" is a total scam and rip off.! Do NOT spend money with them! They will gouge you for 3-5 times the ticket value and then refuse refunds. They were as helpful as a hemorrhoid on the phone. Also zero stars if that was an option.

Do not purchase tickets from Event Tickets Center - they will charge 2-3x more than face value for tickets that you can purchase directly from the venue's website at face value. Example: Event Tickets Center will charge you $136.16 for (1) DL Hughley ticket at Wiseguys Comedy Club in SLC but if you buy it directly from wiseguyscomedy.com, the price is $54.96 for the exact same ticket. Do not be ripped off! Plus many venues will not honor tickets bought on third-party sites like eventticketscenter.com. Buyer Beware!!!!

I was alerted by American Express that there looked to be a fraudulent charge on my account. There was. I immediately emailed the business to cancel. Then, I immediately called the business. I spent 25 min on 1-800-361-7978 with a call rep. She read the same short script multiple times. She said she was not authorized to make a refund. She put me on hold and claimed she "chatted" with refund authority and was told not to issue a refund. I asked to be escalated. She said she could not as she only had "chat" access. I asked for her name and employee number. She would not provide. I asked for an email from the company explaining the decision. She would not provide. All of this is exceptionally unethical, if not illegal, given I called within 5 minutes. It seems many complaints have been made against this business.

I would like to give it zero stars, but I couldn't submit the review. This website is a total and complete SCAM! Do not buy "tickets" from here. I ordered "tickets" at a ridiculous price and kept getting e-mails saying the tickets were released and to look for a link in an email. That e-mail was never received. When I checked on Ticketmaster, the seats I allegedly purchased weren't even available. Had to go through my bank and close an account to avoid auto payment for something I never received. SCAM! Stay far away and do not utilize this site.

Beware of Event Tickets Center’s Pricing and Marketing Practices. I recently purchased a ticket from Event Ticket Center, believing I was buying from an official vendor. Their website was the first result in my search, and since I was looking for a ticket to a specific event, I assumed they were the primary seller. However, I later discovered that I had paid $181.55 for a ticket that another vendor was selling for $62.50—nearly three times the price!

The site was efficient with the purchase process. But it is WAAAY too overpriced, feels like a middle-man highway robbery. The face value of the 2 tickets I bought for a Phil Hanley comedy show was $60. On my credit card the charge total was $250.00. So if you're rich, then go ahead and burn money by using this site. Otherwise take the time to find other ways to get the tickets. This site should be called the Rip-Off Center (ROC). Stay away IMHO.

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE. I supposedly purchased tickets for a show recently and got some emails about them releasing my tickets to Ticket Master. Day of the show I logged in and couldn't find any emails with tickets from this company, nor did I find any tickets in my TicketMaster account. As I struggled through emails, presenting them to the ticket taker, she finally told me that if I purchased tickets anywhere other than TicketMaster, that I did not actually purchase tickets. So, I had to then buy another ticket at the box office. When I called the company, the rep told me I was supposed to go and accept the tickets from their email for my tickets to be transferred to TicketMaster. Furthermore, when I purchased the tickets prompts made me believe I was actually purchasing the tickets from TicketMaster. I was not. Will never fall for this scam again.

SCAM! BEWARE! I didn't look close enough when I searched for an event and accidently clicked on Event Ticket Center's site, thinking it was the venue's ticket selling site. I overpaid by $130 per ticket! No luck getting my money back. Lesson learned.

Ordered by mistake since I misread the dates and asked for a refund immediately since the say the offer 100% money back. They email me saying that they do not refund tickets. I would not recommend this site to anybody since they also charge prices way too high even when the event is booked. The only reason I ordered with them is because it was the first site that came up.

Like others have said, this site looks like you're buying from the venue but charge astronomical fees and do not immediately send you your tickets, they simply say "you will receive them before the event when you purchase them." Those are totally unacceptable business practices.
