The ticket purchase process is…

The ticket purchase process is straightforward, but I always have to reset my password to get into the app when making a purchase. I can access existing tickets ok, but have to log in again to make purchase. There seems to be no option to securely save my password to a device(ie with facial or fingerprint recognition)

In the meantime, if the issue continues, our support team would be happy to take a closer look and help troubleshoot. Please feel free to reach out to us with details of your device and app version so we can investigate further.

My account kept locking me out

My account kept locking me out. Had to change password several times...Sadly i dont think I'd use them again as you cant sell to other fans. So your left with a ticket you cant use and cant sell...

After reply
Can you show me how to transfer tickets to someone else. A stranger, not a friend. If you could give me a step by step as I couldn't find anything.

Great accessibility phone line!

Really easy to book accessible tickets using the dedicated phone line. It only took a few minutes and we have amazing seats too! This is easiest venue for booking accessible tickets that I've found so far.

Terrible customer care, impossible to contact

We purchased tickets for Brian Cox Saturday event. Weeks later we received an email to say our seats were no longer available and we could either contact Ticketek to pay more for different seats on the Saturday, or our tickets would be automatically transferred to the Sunday event. We contacted Ticketek via their website 'contact us' facility twice, to ask about what alternative seats were available for the Saturday, both times no response. We then emailed customer services, again no response. By this time the deadline had passed, so our tickets were moved to the Sunday event, which is difficult for us due to work commitments. The website is very difficult to navigate and contacting the company seems impossible. No phone number! Very poor customer care.

Hello Caroline,

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

We're sorry to hear that you have had this experience. Please respond to our request for more information so that we can see what's happened here.

We would never advise customers to pay more if there were any seat changes to a performance. We are also up to date with all emails, so we're unable to see where you have tried to get in touch with us.

We'd love to get to the bottom of this, so please do send us your details when you can.

Booked tickets to see Romesh in…

Booked tickets to see Romesh in Plymouth. Tickets can only be used (I believe) via the app. Downloaded the app… then was sent on a loop trying to reset a password. Emailed the company and to their credit they did respond really quickly to sort the problem out… glad I tried to have the app up and running after purchasing the tickets, than waiting for 10 minutes before the gig. All a bit stressful. Still not quite sure how I can reset the password on the app (as I am using the one the person reset it to!) obviously this is probably user error ;-)

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for sharing your experience.

We’re really sorry to hear that accessing your tickets for Romesh Ranganathan in Plymouth turned into a stressful experience. That’s certainly not how it should feel after booking a night out.

We’re pleased our support team was able to respond quickly and get you logged in — but we completely understand how frustrating the password reset loop must have been. You absolutely did the right thing by setting everything up well ahead of the show.

In terms of resetting your password in the app: once you're logged in, you should be able to update it via the Account/Settings section by selecting “Change Password.” If that option isn’t visible, it may be worth logging out and using the “Forgot Password” link again to trigger a fresh reset email. If the loop happens again, please don’t hesitate to reach back out we’d be more than happy to walk you through it step by step.

Thanks again for your patience (and for being so understanding about the possibility of user error 😉). We hope you had a brilliant time at the show!

Trying to add an extra vehicle ticket…

Trying to add an extra vehicle ticket was a nightmare. Following instructions just brings you back to where you are. The only tickets I could add were early camping, which wasn't needed. In the end, I had to cancel all tickets and start again.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re really sorry to hear that adding an extra vehicle ticket was so frustrating and that the process kept looping you back to the same page. That’s certainly not the experience we want for our customers.

We appreciate you raising this, and please be assured that your feedback has been taken on board. We’ll share it with the relevant team to review the booking flow and help prevent similar issues in the future.

We’re sorry again that you had to cancel and start over, and we appreciate your patience.

Very confusing for disabled access.

Tried to book accesible ticket plus carer. The process is very confusing. In error I booked just access ticket. I need someone to assist as im severely disabled. I had to book standing ticket then contact venue.
I've contacted the venue hoping they can sort it out.
You need more clarity for accessible plus carer tickets.

Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re very sorry to hear that the booking process was confusing and caused additional stress.

Accessible tickets will usually have a complimentary carer ticket attached, but this can depend on the event and the setup agreed with the venue and promoter. We understand that this isn’t always clear during the booking journey, and we appreciate you highlighting this.

We strongly encourage you to contact our Customer Service team directly, as they’ll be able to review your booking, explain how the accessible and carer allocation works for your specific event, and assist you further. They can also liaise with the venue where necessary to ensure everything is correctly arranged.

Thank you again for your feedback — we will pass this on to help improve clarity around accessible and carer ticket bookings.
