  • Another round of price reductions this morning. Sort of bummed, my seats that were $750, are now $500. Lots on the main floor being sold for $250!

    I understand your frustration. The pricing was really wonky to begin with. You can't focus on that, just move past it and enjoy! Nothing you can do about it now. :rock_on:

    Or actually, if you see a better ticket that you want, call TM and trade in your existing ticket. Or at the very least, call to see if they will refund you the difference. They very well might.

    Can it be tomorrow already?? Pre-concert jitters setting in now! I haven't been this excited for a show in a long while. Just gotta get through this day!

    Definitely check the seating chart on TM and see what seats are available in your original purchase price range. Like others here have already mentioned, you can upgrade for free by calling TM. I exchanged 2nd row balcony in sec 203 for floor seats in sec 108, row R.
  • Thanks for the help guys. Unfortunately TM is being a prick. I was just told that I can't exchange my ticket, or receive any refund even though prices have been reduced.

    This could be b/c I bought a single, but I was told I can't exchange my ticket. Even worse, if tomorrow all seats are reduced to less than what I paid ($750), they won't let me exchange for a better seat. I even asked for 2 tickets at $250, still less than I paid and they wouldn't do it...

    Wow, that sucks. I've heard of multiple people exchanging tickets for a better seat at the same price. Could just be the person you spoke to. I can see them not doing the refund or changing for 2 tix but that's lame if they don't let you exchange.

    Don't know how much effort you want to put in, if you feel strongly you could try again and hopefully speak to a different rep. Or maybe they are getting too many of these calls and decided to put the kibosh on it which is also unfair.

    Regardless of where you end up sitting. it will be a blast!
  • Thanks for the pep talk Suziemay! I'm going to try again tomorrow morning, especially if they reduce all tickets. I guess the problem is right now there is no "even" exchange for people that paid $750.

    Call back you'll get a different rep..if you don't hear what you want..ask for management.

    As someone who's a perpetual ticket upgrader (often at my own expense and sometimes not insignificant!) I feel your pain. I think the most important thing is not to let this whole ticket thing put a damper on what will be a fantastic evening. :peace:

    Yep. I would hang up and call again. You're just getting some schmuck in a call center. Get another one. Totally random.

    Anyone here know or talk to member AmyMoore? Trying to get in touch with her about a ticket to this show she bought from me, pm'd her 4 times but havent heard back from her in like 3 weeks...

    No more tickets at $750 - price options on TM are 1000/500/250

    If you call again and can't get an exchange, check to see what credit card you used to purchase the ticket and see if they have a price protection guarantee. I doubt it'll work, but it's another approach.

    Yes seriously call again! I just talked to two other people who switched to a better seat with no issues.

    Moved up 10 rows on floor via upgrade exchange. Awesome!!!!!

    I was able to call monday and TM said they don't offer exchanges, however they would give me a "one time exchange"
    I really think the rules depend on the Customer service Rep you get on the other end.

    Have you considered calling the venue directly? Maybe they could exchange your ticket for a better seat?

    Can't wait! I might try to upgrade. Have people called ticketmaster and had luck? It seems people have had mixed responses.
  • BlredyellowBlredyellow Posts: 843
    I called TM customer service in Chicago and was upgraded. Good luck, y'all.
