“I purchased tickets for an event for January 2025. It was cancelled and rescheduled several times. StubHub always informed me ahead of time when the event was changed. That was until today. They gave me 25 minutes notice that the event was occurring today. I live further than that away from the venue and had to get someone from another household as well. They did not think that was a legitimate reason for me not to go and would not refund my money. Acknowledged that I had no notice but that was my problem not theirs.
I will never do business with this company again nor do I recommend anyone else do it.”
“I purchased tickets for an event and never received them. I tried to get help from their customer service and they just told me to try and have the sender resend them. I did that and still received nothing. Even though they have a 100% satisfaction guarantee they did not deliver. I never received my tickets and did not get refunded. A complete scam of a company.”
“Buying a ticket was easy, selling was a whole different story! Will never do again. The auto response for customer service is the same no matter what. Very few of the directions actually matched up to the app choices. Transferred my ticket SO many times I lost count. I understand the concept of customer service over the phone, but after 2, 30 minute phone calls I got really tired of the girl apologizing for me being on hold and thanking me for my patience. I just wanted to get my issue solved so I could get to my concert and the seller to his.”
“Stubhub will only let you down. Their representatives will promise you that your ticket is on the way, but it’ll never show up. If you want to actually attend your event, choose another place to buy your ticket. They do give you a refund which is nice… but not when you are outside your venue and ready to go in... this is a major inconvenience . I messaged them 8 hour prior to my event and spoke to four different reps. I even said that I needed to know id my tocket was coming before going to the venue and they promised it was. Three of the reps promised tickets on the way via email…. an email never came. Save yourself the stress, stay away from stubhub. I have never experienced such a terrible company and customer service.”
“Similar to other experiences with 1 star ratings. My ticket transfer was “cancelled” from Ticketmaster even after I accepted tickets. Supposedly the seller violated terms. Instead of getting my refund or being able to purchase new tickets from StubHub, they jerked me around up until 20 minutes before the show on show date. The “day of” show I talked to 4 different customer service agents who promised me different things. It’s currently 20 minutes until the show and still no call back (no one has ever called me back as promised after 8 different phone calls over the last month), no “link” to buy new tickets, and no refund at this point. Never felt more “taken advantage” of by a company. I missed my opportunity to see my favorite artist perform all because StubHub wants to wait till the very last second to offer anything, until it’s too late to even go. We are still waiting and I’m sure by the time we talk to anyone again, it will be in the middle of the show and then hoping for a refund. I would have used any other company or bought new tickets if I knew this would happen. So incredibly disappointed. I’ve never written a negative review before, and it comes with grief over not seeing my favorite artist. Shame on this company for ruining fans experiences.”
“The worst ticket company to deal with. They refused to refund ticket money for a venue that had nowhere for customers to park. They made it look like it was my fault. The Cobb Energy Center was a disaster no parking and parking was closed off. Tickets were invalid.”
“This place is a complete and total rip off. I bought a Wrestlemania 41 ticket, and it cost triple for their personal fees. I got a significantly better one on Ticketmaster, and when I tried to sell my Stubhub one, the transfer failed and I never got my money back.”
“This was my first time trying StubHub and I bought 2 tickets for an NBA game. I bought them in November and the game was in March. I’ve purchased online tickets before from other ticket sellers and have never had a problem…So, I naively thought I could just show up to the venue, show my ticket, and watch the game. Needless to say, when time came for us to show our tickets - first of all, you can’t even access them through the StubHub app, you have to transfer them to the Ticket Master app, and then my tickets weren’t even there. When I would tell the people checking tickets I was using StubHub they just rolled their eyes and made a big “Oh no.” That tells you the reputation StubHub has out there. I wish I had known because it would’ve save me the headache! Anyway, I ended up buying tickets at the ticket counter (way better seats for less money, mind you) and thought I could just call the next day to get my refund. WRONG. They kept throwing their “legal document” in my face about how a buyer needs to call FROM the VENUE to be able to get a refund - even though the legal document ACTUALLY says a buyer is ENCOURAGED (not required) to call…needless to say, after talking to like 3 different people and them saying my issue had been “escalated” (which I think it just sat there), still no refund. I will never use StubHub again, and you can make the decision for yourself, but I’d strongly suggest NOT using StubHub to save you the embarrassment and frustration for yourself and lack of care from StubHub customer service.”
“Bought tickets to HEART concert for March 28 but seller didn’t transfer tickets. Stub Hub still hasn’t refunded my money. Paid $ and got nothing.
Horrible company”
“Terrible experience. Ordered MLB tickets in February, game was in April. Tickets never had a barcode for entry. Come to find out that the seller not only sold to us, but turned and re-sold the same seats 2
Other times. Stub Hub was contacted over 12 hours before game time and would not make things right. My credit card was charged of course. Will never use them again.”
“I bought my ticket for Carin León back in November 2024 for the show on April 11, 2025. The day finally came, and starting at 9:00 AM, I was on the phone with StubHub. They kept telling me I’d receive my ticket by 2:00 PM Pacific Time. I waited all day. 8:00 PM came and still no ticket.
They told me they would send me a replacement ticket. I waited another hour, and then they told me there were no tickets available at all. I asked to speak to a manager or someone from administration, and I was told there was nothing they could do.
I missed the concert I had been waiting months for. This was the worst customer service and overall experience I’ve ever had with any ticketing service. StubHub completely failed me.”
“Worst company I’ve ever worked with. They pass you from person to person in their customer service and won’t refund when they should. I would never use this company again.”
“I wonder how one can sell a 61 dollar ticket to 300 dollars and Stuhub charges 80 something dollars and I ended up paying nearly 400 dollars for s 61 dollar ticket - which I just realized upon receiving the ticket. Is it even legal?”
“As much as they say they are, Stub Hub is not an authorized reseller of tickets in the UK. They make no effort to verify the tickets being sold on their site are legitimate. We tried to attend a West Ham game in London and the ticket office was filled with people just like me who had purchased tickets from Stub Hub and couldn't get into the game.”
