London?

Used to be able to book seats for London. Really convenient. Now that facility seems to have been withdrawn and it’s only for the USA.
Will be deleting the app.

Deleted it for the 2nd time.

Scam likely. Fake lotteries and rush tickets to up sell you later. Will not be using or downloading again. A waste.

Useless app

So you can browse to see showtimes but can’t purchase the discounted tickets on the app? You have to stand in line and HOPE to get a tickets? Then what’s the point of downloading the app?!

Problem to fix

Yes. Keeps asking me to log in. Can not get to page where all shows are listed. Can only open individual shows listed in email. Serious glitch in your system. Shows will not be happy that we can not get access as members. Please fix immediately.

Great app

Fantastic discount seats. Rush always worth it. But always check the original company to see if cheaper as sometimes they add a markup.
