Ticketmaster touting their own tickets
Ticketmaster touting their own tickets. I hate the idea of Seatwave.

Fleet Foxes Iveagh Gardens
Good price for the tickets. A bit unnerving having someone else's name on the ticket, but it wasn't checked.
Good service, overpriced tickets
The service works perfectly and everything worked as it should for me, the only thing I could say is that the tickets are about overpriced but apart from that it was a good experience using the site.
Great service
Great service, excellent regular communication fro seatwave also
Daylight robbery
Absolute disgrace that tickets can be sold for more than face value. Only for I needed tickets for a friend I'd never use seatwave again. Daylight robbery

Will use again
Great price for the tickets, cheaper than Ticketm@ster!! Loosing 1 star because of the ridiculous cost of postage for the original tickets... (Only option) Will definitely use again and will recommend to others.
Payment on tickets sold
I was selling tickets to a concert. For this you take a commission fee. I have no issues with this. But what I don't think is right is that you'll take up to 2 weeks after the event has occurred to pay me the money for the tickets sold. This is a month where you on top of the commission fee also will sit on my money and get interest. For the concert I sold tickets there's been almost 200 tickets listed on your page, for which you take a commission fee for tickets sold for between 100-150 euro each and on top of this you'll hold the money for a month getting interest. I believe a lot of people are selling their tickets either because something unexpected has come up and they can no longer attend the concert themselves or something unexpected has come up where they are in need of the money spent on the tickets. I find this to be a disgraceful treatment of your customers
****************
To answer on your response, no I don't understand. What does it have to do with the seller if the buyer attends the concert or not. They've made a purshase from the seller and that should be the end of the transaction. At which point you can take your commission fee, but no, I do not see why you should sit on the money for a month to see if the buyer attended the concert or not. You're argument holds no merit

Hi this is tuesday 18th April
Hi this is tuesday 18th April, I have sold two tickets to a rugby match which is next weekend saturday 22nd April. I bought the tickets through ticket master and have not received them yet. I got an email from you last saturday morning saying that I had until sun at 12 to post a dispatch code/shipping number. I was told to contact you if I did not have the tickets yet. I have been trying all day both saturday and yesterday monday to call your customer service number but it just keeps saying to many calls at moment call back later. This is truly an awful support number. I will send the tickets overnight registered as soon as i have them but how do I know that Seat saver haven't already tried to source the tickets for the person who bought them. Really disappointed and stressed over this...

Great service
Excellent service. Well informed . Updated regularly . Will definitely use again .
tickets where a little overpriced
tickets where a little overpriced, i had paid extra for the tickets than what the buyer was asking as i was charged extra handling fees etc..and im sure she was aswell, i had been in contact with seller before i bought them, we thought this would be a safe way to do a transaction, so we both had charges, even so, seatwave still nevered removed the seller name from the email tickets, so if an issue had arose at a venue it would of been a different customer to the ticket name? would i of been covered? who knows?

Bitter pill to swallow
This is my second year attending the premier league darts in the 3 arena in Dublin.Both nights were amazing and I have no complaints on the experience.My only issue would be the astronomical mark up on ticket prices.I have no problem paying my way but to pay almost €100 a ticket and then to receive the ticket with a price of €30 marked in it is a bitter pill to swallow.I just don't understand why in the first place I'm on a Ticketmaster site that clearly have no tickets for sale even though they put you through the whole process of picking your seats ,and then to be told that there are no seats .Then I'm redirected to Seatwave to purchase my Ticketmaster ticket.Id just love to know what I'm paying for on the almost €60 mark up on my €30 Ticketmaster ticket.Its all just a bit frustrating,don't get me wrong they were great nights but there was a bitter feeling both times i purchased tickets.

Great work
I was in a crisis having forgotten that I had promised my friend tickets to the Drake concert for her birthday. I did some research and found myself on Seatwave who were luckily still selling tickets even if they were a little more expensive what mattered most was that I hadn't broken a promise and gotten a friend annoyed. Thanks again xxx
Purchased drake tickets
Verryyyyyy expensive to buy second hand on here but had a good experience purchasing my drake ticket overall. Will use in the future if they sell out too quick on ticketmaster.
Worked 100%
I bought Drake tickets on this as I couldn't buy them when they went on sale. They arrived two days later, worked perfectly. Worth the money, would definitely recommend.
Black Sabbath
Got ticket on Seat wave, minimum fuss, easy to use. I'm a grandma now, who saw Sabbath donkeys years ago, so it was a pleasure to buy one for my sons birthday...
Always a good Experience
I have used Seatwave to both buy tickets for shows the I couldn't get when they first came on sale and also to sell tickets when I couldn't use them. It always worked out well. Buy and sell with confidence.
Excellent
Seatwave worked extremely well for me with no problems, I was a little sceptical at first but it was all seamless so would definitely use the system again and recommend it
