Common Ticketmaster Issues
Ticketmaster often receives complaints about:
- Poor seat selection or downgraded seats
- Tickets that turn out to be invalid or do not exist
- No refunds issued despite canceled or changed events
Some customers have faced serious problems, like receiving invalid tickets or being refused refunds when an event was changed by the venue.
If you’re stuck in such a situation, it’s helpful to try proven strategies to solve service issues. Read this guide: How Customers Can Deal With Customer Service
Customer Service Responsiveness
Ticketmaster has received a 3 out of 5 rating for how responsive it is to customer concerns.
While Ticketmaster offers several contact options, it has a reputation for being slow to respond and difficult to deal with in certain cases. It’s recommended to exhaust all self-help and contact methods before escalating the issue to an executive.

Also refer to How Customers Can Deal With Customer Service for help in case your refund is delayed or denied.
4. Can I change the name on my ticket?
No, you usually cannot change the name, but that’s okay. Tickets are generally not name-specific unless stated otherwise (e.g., some will-call or international events). The person using the ticket just needs to have the barcode or QR code.

Ticketmaster cannot help with tickets bought through third-party sellers (like StubHub or scalpers). Always purchase through official sources to avoid fraud.
