Dear Viagogo.com, I am writing to you...

  • - Booking ref 64038****; 2 Yungblud tickets, only 1 issued (site error) on 2026-04-11.
  • - Request full refund and data on the issue.
Dear Viagogo.com, I am writing to you...

Dear viagogo.com,

I am writing to you to both complain and request data you hold about me related to an issue about: ticket resales

The booking reference was: 64038****

The issue that I have experienced was: I went on the website to order 2 Yungblud tickets, where it automatically says 2 tickets, so I clicked on the 2 tickets and paid for the pair. Once the transaction went through it said only one, then I went on the site to see if I could get another one next to it as it's for my daughter; there was no other single one. I then contacted Viagogo for them to say they will be back in touch, which never happened. It was obviously a clear error on their site

The affect on me was: very stressed as it's taken phone calls and numerous messages to speak. I'm money down now for a ticket that won't be used

The problem occurred on: 2026-04-11

I would like you to: a full refund

I would also remind you that I would like you to provide me with data related to this issue including related communications and transactions between myself and your company.

I look forward to your prompt response on this matter. I would like to keep a complete record of my case, so please reply to this email address.

Yours faithfully,

Aiden Reid 64038****

Viagogo - Purchased parking pass

I have not heard anything back or have I been reimbursed. I purchased a parking pass that is not allowed to be resold - I sent the email communication to the rep that took my call.

They advised I would get. The pass is useless to me and I requested I be refunded.

I've attached again the email communication. Please advise.

“Viagogo sold me invalid tickets for Napoli vs Milan”

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Tickets Napoli vs Milan issued under a different name and unusable.
  • - Viagogo refused a fix and told me to wait to activate the guarantee.

I had a terrible experience with viagogo and strongly warn others to avoid this platform.

I purchased tickets for Napoli vs Milan (Order 63860****), and the tickets I received were issued under a completely different name. viagogo themselves confirmed that the tickets could NOT be personalized again, which makes them unusable for entry in Italy where ID checks are required.

Despite this, viagogo refused to provide a solution before the event.

Instead, they insisted I wait until the event time to activate the guarantee, which is completely meaningless because by then the match has already started.

I spent over an hour on the phone with their support, where it was confirmed the tickets are invalid. I was then put on hold for more than 20 minutes to speak to a manager who never even joined the call.

Their customer service is extremely poor, inconsistent, and clearly designed to delay resolution.

They admitted the problem but refused to fix it in time.

This is NOT buyer protection. This is leaving customers without tickets and without a real solution.

I am now forced to proceed with a chargeback and escalate further.

Avoid viagogo if you value your money and want certainty when buying tickets.

Cons:
  • Cheap customer service

Ticket charge issue

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Overcharged on ticket prices; resellers take a large share.
  • - Tickets weren't sent and refunds required arguing for a long time.

they overcharge so much on ticket prices. especially when reselling they take such a big portion.

I bought tickets, and they never sent it and i had to argue with them so much just to get a refund back. not only that, they cut money from my account because i couldnt supply my tickets to a buyer cus i listed the tickets back but how could i send the tickets if i never got them in the first place??

Ive been trying to get that refund back but they have been going left and right and just wasting my time. both numbers given to me by an agent also was unreachable.

Since July 5, 2025, my payouts on Viagogo have been completely frozen. The total withheld amount exceeds 114,000.

All orders were completed successfully, tickets were delivered, and events took place. However, I have not received any clear explanation for the suspension of payments.

Customer support only provides generic responses and does not address the main issue. I am fully willing to provide any required documents and comply with all procedures, but the lack of transparency and communication is extremely concerning.

Never deal with Viagogo

Original review Mar 09, 2026
I was unable to download the ticket and did not get a ticket for the show. I purchased a separate ticket at the venue and went to the seat that you had supposedly sold me, and there was someone in it with a valid ticket.

I spoke with the Ticketech representative at the venue and was informed that the ticket had been sold to someone else. You guarantee a refund if the ticket is not delivered. I keep being informed that it was accessible through a URL - it wasn't, as I tried several times while on the phone to your agent in the UK. I would like the refund that you guarantee.

I'm about to inform the ACCC and ScamWatch of my most disappointing dealings with you. I thought that I should inform you before I post details of my experience with your company on the Australian Defence Force Noticeboard (75,000 members) and the Returned Services League Public Noticeboard (100,000+ members) and give you the opportunity to match your guarantee.

At first, my English is not so good; excuse me. I have paid for 1 ticket for a concert of James Taylor on the 14th of July in Edinburgh, Scotland.

First problem: I can't find the order on my account of ViaGogo. Earlier, they said maybe you have paid as a guest, but I can't find out. Please help me. Second problem: I received an email from ViaGogo with the message: the bought ticket will be transferred to Ticketmaster Mobile.

Please help me how to do this in steps. I made a Dutch Ticketmaster account and an English Ticketmaster account.

Where can I find the order or ticket? Thank you in advance, Mirjam van der Wurff.
