Scam like experience

Forced to download the app to get my ticket (manchester oct 5th), sign up, now have to connect my ticketmastet account to get the ticket, which i do. Then the ticket I'm given is for the wrong venue in the wrong day (london, oct 6th). Totally unacceptable

Pointless, annoying and irritating

Bought tickets through Seetickets, but then forced to download and set up new account with O2 Academy app, lots of irrelevant data grab information and then handover to Seetickets to access tickets anyway. Which weren’t available - states ‘try later’. Pointless, drawn out, doesn’t work and incredibly clunky. My 13yr old could code this better. Needs fixing ASAP

Pointless garbage

An app that you have to apparently download to hold your tickets for O2 venues irrespective of which company you bought them from.
Made less useful by having you sign in with either your ticket master account ID or, for example, your See tickets ID. If you sign in with your See tickets ID you then need to establish a ticket master account with that email address. It’s like the API was never invented.

Not needed

Why do I need an app to have tickets

Forced to download this rubbish

This is the kind of thing that makes me absolutely loathe modern life. No other option given but forced to download yet another stupid app just to access gig tickets. Just send them on the damn email and stop making people jump through aggravating hoops just so you can harvest their data.

App doesn’t show tickets when it should

App does not deliver the tickets it should when it should. Very poor functionality

Useless data harvesting app

This app is useless. There is no purpose to each venue having their own app.

I bought a ticket to a gig at Brixton and was forced to download this app, plus force all the people I was attending with to download it as well. Then I had to log in twice (once to register an O2 account, then login to Ticketmaster). Then I had transfer each person their individual ticket.

There is no value to this and it’s a waste of time. I just wanted to get into a show.

Can they just go back to a pdf or at worst one app from the ticket seller?

Just does not work

Impossible to link with Gigs and Tours. Absolutely pointless app

Pointless app

Stupid pointless app. I had to download it in order to move my ticketmaster tickets over. Even though I already had access to them. After attempting to login I was met with “suspicious activity” messages and been told my ticketmaster access will permanently close unless I upload photos of my ID and face. Ridiculous, pointless, stupid, waste of time app. Do not download it, just use the Ticketmaster app at the event, I’m sure most other people still are

Frustrating

E-ticket doesn’t download, customer service is non existent and avoid see tickets too

concerning

the app doesn’t show my tickets and everytime I try to email u can’t it so useless and a joke

Terrible

Absolutely terrible

TERRIBLE

you’re better off just trying to run into the venue as fast as you can because i’m telling you now your tickets are definitely not going to appear .

Useless

I have a gig in 2 days and I still have no tickets and they are not on my app!!!

Won’t let me connect my Ticketmaster tickets

Got sent an email week before a gig saying you must have this app to get your tickets even though they are already in my wallet from when I bought them. Got app stalled on get my tickets. Had to remove and start again. Then registered then couldn’t link my Ticketmaster account just a blank window. Went back into the ticket master app click to view my tickets. They are the same ones already in my wallet. Are you purposely making this app un usable to keep the monopoly?

Difficult to log in

If you don’t log out on your pc/imac zero chance of using the app.

Useless

Completely unnecessary app, the combo with Ticketmaster makes its usage hellish. I just hope DICE takes over everything. Shame on whoever thought this was a good system

Rubbish

Pointless app that crashes when you try and use it for its only intended purpose

A joke

Completely ridiculous to have to use this app and also transfer tickets to individuals, so many hoops just to get into a venue with tickets you’ve already bought. App crashes when trying to transfer tickets

NO TICKETS - Less than 1 week before gig

NO TICKETS - Less than 1 week before gig and no tickets displayed. Automated service sends you in circles. Between SeeTickets/Eventim, TicketMaster & O2 Academy (Newcastle) there’s no link up and I’m chasing my tail. No one to phone. No one to email. ABSOLUTELY shocking
All I can do is keep requesting Order Confirmation emails from SeeTickets and follow the links in the email
