I was scammed by this unreliable…

I was scammed by this unreliable company that claims to be trustworthy only in words and does nothing to protect the consumer. The ticket was sold but already used by the seller well before the event, blocking any further entry. I alerted the staff at the event, filed a police report, and provided clear evidence of the scam, yet TicketSwap hasn’t done anything. Don’t get fooled—get a lawyer. Scam app.

First and last time I sell a concert…

First and last time I sell a concert ticket this way. I sold my Rock in Rio concert ticket and should have received the payment on June the 24th. I keep waiting for the payment or at least a communication from TicketSwap, but they don't answer my messages.

We are very sorry for the late notice. This payout was indeed still paused because of the opened conversation by the buyer. This case has now been solved, hence why we unlocked the payout. You'll receive this within 3 to 5 business days.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our support team is always ready to help you.

Used Ticket, No Refund, No Support

The ticket I purchased had already been used by the time I arrived at the concert. TicketSwap's customer service was virtually non-existent. I received neither a refund nor any indication that the seller faced consequences. As far as I know, that seller may still be scamming other buyers.

Hi Miguel,

We are very sorry to read about your experience. We completely understand how disappointing and frustrating it must have been to arrive at the venue only to find that your ticket had already been used.

We have reviewed your case and can confirm that it is currently open and under investigation by our after-sales team. Cases like these require us to carefully review all available information before we can reach a decision.

To help us investigate as thoroughly as possible, we kindly ask that you add any evidence you may have to your existing support conversation, such as photos, videos, or any documentation provided by the venue. This information is extremely valuable in helping us determine what happened.

We sincerely apologize for the delay and understand that waiting for an outcome is frustrating. Please rest assured that your case has not been forgotten and will be reviewed as carefully as possible.

Kind regards,

Ticketswap is ripping people off

Ticketswap is ripping people off but acting like they are honest. Looking at several people selling BTS tickets in the 300 level for over $600. I know for a fact that these tickets cost at the most $200. So sellers are chosing the highest tier on the app and adding 15 percent. I've reported this several times to Ticketswap and they do nothing about it. I also had a glitch in my own sales the the rep was extremely rude and unhelpful. He sent me the buyers personal email which is illegal.

Hi Sharon,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear about your concerns and understand why this has been frustrating.

We want to reassure you that we do our best to ensure tickets are listed at the correct price. Our systems perform multiple checks, and if a ticket is found to have been sold above the permitted price, we investigate the case and refund the buyer for any amount that was overpaid.

We are also sorry to hear about your experience with our support team. We take feedback about our communication seriously and would like to investigate what happened.

We did try to locate your case and asked you for the details linked to your TicketSwap account so we could review both the listings you reported and your interaction with our support team. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response, so we have been unable to investigate this further.

If you are still willing to share your account details with us, we would be happy to take another look into both the reported listings and your support experience.

Kind regards,
Team TicketSwap

Missing payout

TicketSwap marked my payout as received, but I never received the money.

I sold an Awakenings Festival 2026 ticket through TicketSwap for R$1,398.07.

Ticket/listing reference: VB2QPBR7DX51KQBH

The first payout failed because TicketSwap said the bank details were incorrect. I updated my Banco do Brasil payout details, and TicketSwap then marked the payout as “received” on July 1.

However, the money never arrived in my Banco do Brasil account. I checked my balance and bank statement, and there is no incoming payment for R$1,398.07.

I contacted TicketSwap support. They said the case would be passed to a teammate to trace the transfer and confirm which bank account it was sent to. They said I would receive a reply within 2 working days, but that deadline passed and I still have no transaction ID, payment provider reference, proof of transfer, or confirmation of the exact bank account used.

At this point, TicketSwap is showing the payout as received while I have not received my money, and support is not resolving the case. I need TicketSwap to provide proof of transfer or resend the payout to the correct Banco do Brasil account.

Hi Henrique,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We are very sorry for the concern and frustration this situation has caused.

We have reviewed your case and can confirm that one of our support agents has now replied to your support chat. Your payout is currently being investigated so that we can trace what happened and verify the payment details.

We sincerely apologize that this investigation has taken longer than expected. We understand how worrying it is to see a payout marked as completed when the funds have not yet appeared in your account.

Please rest assured that your case is being handled, and our team will continue to keep you updated through your existing support conversation as soon as more information is available.

We appreciate your patience and apologize again for the delay.

Hi Roberto,

We are sorry to read about your review.

We attempted to investigate your case using the information available to us. However, the email address you provided is linked to an account that only contains a purchase from 2022, and we were unable to find a recent purchase matching the situation you described.

As a result, we are unfortunately unable to verify what happened or investigate this specific case.

If this review relates to a different TicketSwap account or a different email address, we kindly ask you to contact our support team using the correct account details. We will be happy to investigate the matter and assist you further.

Ticketswap sells invalid tickets to events they are not authorized to

Tickeswap sold me 2 tickets to an event they were not authorize to sell. I explained the situation and they insisted that I should go to the event and still try to get in even with the tickets not being under my name. Of course tickets were rejected upon entrance. Had to buy 2 new tickets, contacted ticketswap and the seller multiple times since then, submited a form about the tickets. No reply, no refund. Absolute scam..

Hi Antonio,

We are very sorry to read about your experience. We completely understand how disappointing and frustrating it must have been to be denied entry to the event and then have to purchase new tickets yourself.

We can confirm that your case is currently open and under review by our after-sales team. These situations require a thorough investigation, as we need to review all available information and evidence before reaching a conclusion.

We sincerely apologize for the delay in providing you with an update. Please be assured that your case has not been forgotten and that our after-sales team will contact you through your existing support case as soon as they have completed their review or require any additional information.

We understand how stressful this situation has been and appreciate your patience while we work towards a fair resolution.

Wrongly advertised ticket - no refund

Bought an festivalticket for 5 days. Once I paid and opened it, I found out it was only a camping ticket.

Couldn’t see the ticket details before buying, so the seller advertised it wrong.

I immediately reached for help through the help desk, but still no answer or refund… it’s been 4 days already.

Never had this issue before and all my other problems got fixed asap. Doubting about their “dedicated 24/7 customers service” atm….

Ticketswap sold me an invalid ticket and refuses refund

Ticketswap sold me an invalid ticket that I can't use and refuses to do anything about it!
For weeks I have been sending messages in the chat and calling their UK number and every time I am dismissed with similar claims that there is no problem with the ticket, while the seller of the ticket told me that the reason they sold the ticket innthe first place is because they cannot use it!! The name of the original owner is still on the ticket and it has to be transferred to mine by the owner. I have provided Ticketswap with written proof from the event itself that this is the case but I keep getting dismissed. This is absolutely a scam, there is nothing safe about Ticketswap when they knowingly keep selling unusable tickets and do absolutely nothing for the people who reach out for help.

Hi Blue,

Thank you very much for sharing this review with us. This helps us to work towards optimalizing our platform for you and all other users!

We see that you opened a conversation with the seller of this ticket. Most events specify that it is important to bring a form of identification. In most cases, this is requested so that age can be verified upon arrival, if necessary. For a potential ticket buyer, it is not a problem if a different name is listed on the ticket. Tickets sold on our platform usually retain the original buyer’s name. In the unlikely event that we suspect the event is strictly personalized, we do not allow these tickets to be resold on TicketSwap. I hope this helps!

This is also what was explained in the opened conversation in your account, so there is nothing more to explain. If you don't wish to keep the ticket, you can always decide to re-sell it.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our support team is always ready to help you.

Kind regards,

TicketSwap

Unresolved refund & broken contract. ACM notified!

Update:

You are missing the point. I did not pay a "Buyer Protection" fee to TicketSwap just for you to send automated emails and "reminders" for over 2 months.

​Your terms explicitly state that if the seller fails to refund the money within 14 days, TicketSwap will step in to support and secure the resolution. Sending a "reminder" after 60 days of complete silence from the seller is a failure of your service. Your "Buyer Protection" is a paid guarantee, not a polite suggestion.

​The partial refund from the first seller does not excuse your complete lack of action regarding the second one. A formal notice of default (Ingebrekestelling) has already been sent to your headquarter in Amsterdam, and a official complaint has been logged with the ACM (ConsuWijzer).

​Stop hiding behind the seller's irresponsibility. I expect TicketSwap to fulfill its paid guarantee and refund the remaining amount immediately!

Orginal message:

TicketSwap charges a service fee for "Buyer Protection" but completely fails to deliver it.
My transaction (ID: [IOJPPEI 0220414243]) for a cancelled event has been unresolved for over 2 months.
The seller holds my money, and TicketSwap support completely ignores my case, refusing to step in as guaranteed.
Absolute lack of consumer care.

Hi,

We are sorry to hear that this situation has been so frustrating for you.

We have reviewed your case and can confirm that one of the sellers has already transferred your refund, which is great to see.

Regarding the remaining refund, we have sent another reminder to the second seller. For cancelled events that are not part of our SecureSwap program, the event organizer refunds the original ticket holder, and it is the seller's responsibility to pass that refund on to the buyer through the conversation opened on TicketSwap.

We understand that this process can be disappointing when a seller is slow to respond. Please be assured that we continue to follow up with the seller and encourage them to fulfill their responsibility.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we continue working towards a resolution.

Kind regards,

Hi Dorna,

Thank you very much for sharing this review with us. We are very sorry to hear you have been waiting for your payout for quite a while. This had to do with the verification of your account, where we needed more input from your side. We can see that the payout will be processed today, so this will arrive in your bank account within 3 to 5 business days.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to help.

Once again, our sincere apologies for the inconvenience.

I've been trying to get in touch

I've been trying to get in touch since this afternoon regarding an issue with tickets I purchased for 2,000 PLN, and absolutely no one is responding on the chat. Total customer neglect. The platform couldn't care less that a fraud might have happened through their service. I have never encountered anything like this before, and I am shocked that this kind of attitude is still happening in 2026.
