Process of use was straightforward and easy to follow - accepting that sometimes several people are attempting to get some or all of the seats you are in the process of booking.

Hi Dean,

Thank you for the positive review!

We are so glad to hear you found the booking process straightforward and easy to follow.

You are absolutely right that during busy periods, ticket availability can change quickly as others are booking at the same time.

We appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy your event!

Probably the worst app for concerts

I book a ticket, it doesn't show on the app and you cant physically pass it on ( present for someone ) until just before the gig. Pretty useless app tbh!

Hi M,

Thank you for your review.

We are sorry to hear about your experience. Tickets are typically released no later than 3 working days before the event date, which is why they may not yet be visible in your app for you to transfer.

If you are still unable to locate your tickets after this timeframe, please contact our customer service team and we’ll be happy to assist you further.

Hi Natalie,

Thank you for your feedback, and we are really sorry for the worry this caused ahead of your event.

We completely understand how stressful it must have been, especially with children looking forward to the show.

We are glad to hear the tickets did come through in time, but we appreciate this was far from ideal.

Your comments have been shared with the relevant team so we can continue to improve the timing of ticket delivery.

We hope you all had a wonderful time at the show.

Thank you for your feedback.

We are very sorry to hear how stressful this experience has been, especially so close to the event and over the Easter weekend.

We completely understand your concern, particularly when it involves plans with children. This is not the experience we want for our customers.

As we are unable to review booking details publicly, please contact us directly with your booking reference and we will ensure this is looked into as a priority.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and worry caused.

Ticket finally arrived the night before

I bought a ticket from this company back in November 2025 for a Josh Groban concert on 1st April 2026. It is now the day before and i am stressed. No ticket on the O2 App, signed up for AXS, nothing . No way to contact anyone. What a disappointment . Why on earth do we have to go to another site which causes just more angst. How do we now get these tickets which i have paid a lot for .

Despite contacting Ticketek UK via various methods and being told it will be there in the next few hours, they have not released my ticket into their App or The O2 App and my concert is just over 24 hours away. I would not recommend using this company as accessing my ticket - which was bought and paid for 6 months ago is proving impossible!!!!
