Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Consumers appreciate the user-friendly experience and the straightforward booking process. Many customers highlighted the seamless transactions, from pre-sale access to seat selection and quick QR code delivery. A lot of people mentioned securing great seats, sometimes even in the front row, and praised the excellent service and clear communication throughout the purchase. However, some consumers reported mixed experiences with the website, particularly regarding its complexity and occasional glitches during the pre-sale period. Some people also expressed frustration with not being able to select their seats and with additional fees. Despite these concerns, many customers found the overall process better than other ticketing platforms and expressed their intention to use the service again for future events.

£10 above face value with no explanation why

Edit. Maybe I wasn't clear. The price showed both the cost to me and the face value of the ticket. It was clear I was paying a extra, but there was zero detail on what that was for. I hate to say it, but your (generally awful) competition do better here.

Pre sale tickets purchased

Managed to get Tom Odell tickets during the pre sale, so happy at that. Not so happy at having to pay over 15% of the ticket price in fees.

Always excellent. Simple, straightforward and reliable, with tickets available almost instantly in most cases. Plus they don’t do dynamic pricing.
