4. Can you help? I need tickets for an event today!
^Top
|
|
|
Yes, we can. And we do it all the time. You just have to fill out the box in Special
Instructions and put the best number to reach you at. The broker with the actual
tickets will call you and your credit card will be charged only AFTER the deal is
consummated. In most cases they will meet you at the event, or you can pick them
up at Will-Call.

|
5. Who to contact in case of cancellation of an
event? ^Top

For events that are rescheduled or the venue is changed after your order has been

You may contact the broker who fulfilled your order. (The contact information for
the Fulfilling Broker is provided to User during the purchase process). All service
fees are non-refundable. For further details refer to our Terms

6. What costs does the listed ticket price include?
^Top
|
|
|
We are proud to charge some of the lowest service charges on the Internet. These
charges reflect the costs associated with online sales and are dependent on the
price of the ticket. In addition to the listed price, other costs like shipping,
ticket obtaining and ticket handling costs will be reflected during the purchase
process. Prices stated on the Site do not include any state or other local taxes
that may apply to User's order. All prices are in United States Dollars (USD) unless
otherwise specifically stated.

|
7. What does "General Admission (GA)"
mean? ^Top
|
|
|
General Admission tickets are not assigned or reserved, and are occupied on a first-come,
first-served basis. Also, these tickets may be seated, standing or a combination
of both. Though you may be quoted section, row, and seat numbers for a General Admission
event, however these are for inventory purposes only and do not reflect any actual
seating location.
|
|
|
8. What is will call? ^Top
|
|
|
Most event venues have a special section of the box office known as the 'will call'
window. It is at this window that customers may pick up their pre purchased tickets
on the day of the event.
|
|
|
9. Why are the seat-numbers not listed?
^Top
|
|
|
Unfortunately, the holding brokers do not allow us to have the exact
seat numbers. We are only given row and section info. You might find out the seat
numbers by contacting us by phone and talking to one
of our sales representatives. However, given this restriction, if you are willing
to go for it, we just offer the same seats at a great price.
|
|
|
10. Are most seats together? ^Top
|
|
|
Seats are always together for any sort of event (unless otherwise specifically
stated in the listed ticket description). However, at some venues some
seats are consecutive. For instance, seats 2, 4, and 6 may be consecutive. Please
check the seat map on our web page or contact the venue directly to determine the
venue's seat configuration.
|
|
|
11. What are the accepted forms of payment?
^Top
|
|
|
Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover are all acceptable forms of payment.
We do not accept credit cards over emails. Additionally, checks or money orders
are also not accepted.
|
|
|
12. What is your policy on refunds?
^Top
|
|
|
All sales are final. Since tickets are a one-of-a-kind item and not replaceable,
there are no refunds, exchanges or cancellations. If an event is postponed, tickets
will be honored for the rescheduled date. New tickets will not need to be issued.
If an event is cancelled without a rescheduled date, User will need to contact the
Fulfilling Broker for a refund. Contact information for the broker who fulfills
your order (Fulfilling Broker) will be provided to User during the purchase process.
The Fulfilling Broker may require the User to return the supplied tickets at User's
expense before receiving any refund User may be entitled to due to cancellation.
TicketSocial is not responsible for providing or securing this refund for User.
Any shipping and handling charges are not refundable.

While checking out from the website, there is a special instructions box. Make sure
you make a note in there regarding wanting to pick up the tickets at the event and

14. Are the prices for adult and child tickets
different? Also, is there a ticket for a 2 year old? ^Top
|
|
|
Ticket necessity for children’s admission depends on the specific venue rules
and regulations. There is not a set age, which would require the purchase of a ticket
or not. If buying a ticket for a child, please contact the venue before placing
an order.
|
|
|
15. What if I lose my tickets? ^Top
|
|
|
Lost, stolen or damaged tickets will not be refunded. We cannot issue new tickets
under any circumstances. Please keep them in a secure location. Direct sunlight
or heat may damage tickets.
|
|
|
16. What if I do not receive my tickets within
the specified time? ^Top
|
|
|
We try our best to ensure you have received your tickets before the event. Most
orders are processed the same business day in which they are received. Orders placed
after business hours may be processed on the next business day. However, for certain
events, tickets may not be available for immediate shipment. Tickets will be shipped
when available, and choice of an expedited delivery method does not guarantee that
tickets will be shipped immediately. If circumstances mean we are unable to post
them to you in time, we will make alternative arrangements for you to collect your
tickets at the venue. If you have not received your tickets a week before an event,
or 2 days before an event where tickets have been booked within 2 weeks of an event,
please contact us sara@ticketsocial.com

|
|
17. What does the term “in hand tickets”
mean? ^Top
|
|
|
Some brokers have tickets that they acquire closer to the show. "In hand"
means that the broker has it in ready stock and is presumably ready to send.
|
|
|
18. Where are the Orchestra and the Dress Circle
seats located generally? ^Top
|
|
|
Orchestra Stalls are the ground floor seats on the same level
as stage. These are usually the most desirable seats. Dress Circle (called
sometimes Royal Circle or Mezzanine) are the first tier seats just above the orchestra
stalls. Most of the seats in the stalls and dress circle are considered as the best
seats in the house. However, in general, the further you are back in the Dress Circle
the worse the seat will become.
|
|
|
19. What to do in case of giving a wrong mailing address
or a change of address after placing an order?
^Top
|
|
|
Tickets cannot be delivered to a different address. We have an agreement with the
credit card companies to only ship to the billing address of the credit card being
used for the purchase. However, contact us at
sara@ticketsocial.com.
|
|
|
20. What if my billing address is a P.O. Box?
^Top
|
|
|
Even though we require customers to have their tickets shipped to the billing address
of the credit card, Federal Express (this is the service we use) does not ship to
P.O. Boxes.
|
|
|
21. I ordered tickets on the internet but have not
yet received confirmation. Has my order been received? ^Top
|
|
|
Due to a wrong e-mail address or other reasons, it is possible that you did not
receive a confirmation. Please contact us and provide your complete name, the date
of your order and the event. We will then inform you if your order was received
or not.
|
|
|
22. Is it possible to get tickets to two different
events (or same event but on different dates) together thus avoiding the double
shipping charge? ^Top
|
|
|
Unfortunately, this is not possible since the tickets may be held by different holding
brokers. We wouldn't be able to consolidate those orders.
