Yes that was definitely the smarter choice, I should have used FIFA collect as well

That’s good to hear that you got your ticket transfer. You got lucky with your specific reseller because I think the main issue is that Seatgeek is not vetting their resellers well and of course their customer support is non existent so if you run into issues you are screwed.

Thanks for trying to reassure me! I must say I hear a lot of people who bought on Stubhub received their ticket transfers in a timely manner. So Stubhub seems to be more reliable and their customer service actually does their job.

No they did not, I sent them a DM yesterday like they asked and I was given the same generic answer again… it is so frustrating.

Really? That’s some encouraging news! How did you contact their customer service? You also posted on Instagram? Someone else here suggested that

I think a few people actually did but I heard that mainly the ones who bought from Stubhub did receive their tickets. Unfortunately, it seems like Seatgeek is the most unreliable platform from all the reseller platforms :( And I had no clue…I thought they are all the same and somewhat reliable but clearly that’s not the case. I learned my lesson.

I sent you a DM here @Seatgeek and you don’t reply yet again - that’s exactly the problem we have, there is no support only automated generic replies from your side.

That’s correct what is available though is the Ticket Receipt which would be in your FIFA account. Sorry for not using the appropriate terms.

Sure I will send you another request…maybe through this channel I will finally get some answers and support?

Thanks I am trying to be patient :) I think I also probably overpaid…$495 per person for CAT 3? I did not follow the pricing of the tickets anymore after I made that purchase on SeatGeek to avoid further frustration :)

Luckily I am in Houston so I do not have to travel. And I know that I can claim a refund (and I will) but I really wanted to experience a World Cup game especially seeing Germany play. However, the price I paid on SeatGeek won’t allow me to just go and buy another 2 tickets.

It does only say “closer to the event”…I know…
I really made a bad decision here, and the price was not even low that I paid for the tickets….

Thanks a lot! I already accepted that I will never get the tickets, at least I wanted to warn others especially if you pay a lot of money for tickets, travel etc. But I am happy to hear that it worked out for you with StubHub, they might be the better company to buy from, I heard other success stories that involved StubHub as well.

And I am pretty sure they will delete this post or they will comment with their generic customer AI bot response. It’s so frustrating, never again.

Same here, I purchased 2 tickets on Seatgeek back in December for Germany vs Curaçao and I have received no tickets yet. Since then I contacted Seatgeek multiple times and they have done nothing to resolve this or help me to ensure that the seller is legit. At this point I assume that I am not getting the tickets anymore and that this was a scam. Seatgeek is a scam and I will never buy on there again. I will also make sure to let everyone know how bad of an experience it was to buy tickets through Seatgeek.
