Does anybody have any personal experiences with Hellotickets?
Just bought some tickets on that platform for the Ariana Grande concert in London next year, but now I'm a bit unsure if that was a good idea. Are they reliable or is it scam? Will those tickets work?

I got a ticket for bad bunny through hello ticket and I did recieve it through quentro but am paranoid that it’s a fake. Have any of you had any experiences with getting tickets but them being fake?

Ich überlege welche für Brüssel zu kaufen. Sind die Karten echt oder nur Fake?

Ich habe vor 1 Monat 3 BTS Tickets für München gekauft über Hellotickets. Insesamt habe ich 1300.- bezahlt für die hintersten Plätze. Ich habe eine Bestätigung bekommen für den Kauf, mit einer Email wo steht das meine Tickets vielleicht erst am Tag der Veranstaltung (12.07) kommen. Ich habe Angst da ich und meine Familie von der Schweiz extra nach München fahren für dieses Konzert. Ich habe mich jedoch mal beim Support gemeldet und gefragt ob alles gut gelaufen ist und ob mein Kauf registriert wurde und sie haben mir versichert das meine Tickets garantiert sind und sie entweder als Email, Whatsapp oder direkt auf Ticketmaster kommen. Ich gebe euch bescheid ob ich die Tickets bekommen habe und ob sie funktioniert haben. ich hoffe es so sehr.

Same question as u lol, actually scared...did u receive your tickets after the payment??
GIC68@reddit (OP)
Not yet, but I got a confirmation, that I will get them. They wrote it's normal for concerts with high demand that the tickets will be sent out only shortly before the concert takes place, in some cases not even before the same day. Oh my, I'm so scared - I have to book a trip to London and a hotel and I don't know if it's all in vain maybe.

Hello please do not buy from hello tickets we bought tickets on 9th October 2026 we now on the 16th March 2026 and no tickets weve emailed the company and nothing we now reported this company to paypal and too my bank and said theyve committed fraud by not delivering the tickets or sending any purchase information please everyone stay clear of hello tickets if you live in Spain, Italy or the UK please you will lose your .oney and they don't care at all
Fiercequeen@reddit
Did you get your money back ? I'm currently in dispute with my credit card amex to get my money back. Amex is denying £294 and I have no tickets. Appreciate any advice

Hello again having nightmares with this company im now going to take them to courts in the United under European laws as the company is based in Spain leave you reviews on trust pilot for the company they will try and get them removed but keep putting them on trust pilot. Weve just had my stepdad dying with cancer while all this has been going on and they destroyed a little girls first concert at the age of 14 while her grandad died as well on the 14th March 2026 there disgrace please spread the word dont buy from hellotickets your not safe to purchase from them. All the reviews of hellotickets on trustpilot are the same company they we deny its them but it all one company ive left reviews on everyone of them as I think everyone in every country should know this company is ripping is all off. Let us know if you need any more help and I hope you have a better experience than we have .
Fiercequeen@reddit
American express denied my dispute twice but I'll try again. I'm so sorry to hear about your situation, its so frustrating when a company doesn't care their customers at all. I hope you get a resolution, are you USA based?
Own-Guidance7597@reddit
Hello this company lies and will try everything in there powers not too refund your money. Weve left numerous reviews on trust pilot and this company keeps getting them removed there rating on trust pilot should be twice as bad as there too busy on trust pilot getting your reviews removed then sorting customers problems out in the first place hellotickets is a disgrace weve had to deal with this company for 6 months while my stepdad was dyeing of cancer we lost him on march 14th 2026 while my stepdad was dying in hospital so we complained to paypal over 50.emails sent weve contact hellotickets since January 2026 just to be sent emails saying tickets are not refundable when that wasn't the question we was as them. This has now been put in the hands of natwest fraud and if we dont get refunded we are taking legal action against paypal who haven't protected our money and we will be taking hello tickets to the small claims courts for a refund,damages and intrest on the money they have taken since October 2025. You can take hellotickets to court under European laws as there based in Spain get some legal advice first or Google the information you need on the Internet. This is one company hellotickets if your leaving reviews on trust pilot its all the same company they will deny its there company but there all the same company. If youve had bad dealings with this company leave your messages and reviews on trust pilot and on reddit so everyone knows not to buy from this company. I dont work so buy tickets for my daughters 14 year old birthday you expect to get a good service from this company as they over charge too but believe me you get nothing but problems from this company they are a disgrace to do this too anyone is bad enough but to have someone dying with cancer in hospital and have to deal with this company , then too destroy a 14 years old birthday party as she wanted to see Louis tomlinson at coop at manchester for first concert then she lost her grandad to cancer they do this too her with her concert tickets.
Please do me a favour reply to this conversation and leave your own opinions and spread the word dont use hellotickets to buy any tickets at all.
Thank you to you all for your support as well we all need to stick together against these companies as they need to be stopped from selling anything online .

Bonjour les gens, moi j’ai bien reçu les 3 tickets pour A$AP ROCKY à bercy, mais les infos dessus sont bizarre. Il y a mon nom nul part, le prix sur le billet est incorrect, pas d adresse à pars la ville, 93210 st denis, qui n est pas ma ville. Et le nom est bizarre « PHI korvino ». J’ai l’impression qu’il font du recel de ticket, mais ducoup j’ai peur que mes places sois volés ou fausses. Bref qu’elles ne passent pas le jour j. Des news ? Merci bcp
Secret_Assumption_82@reddit
Pour faire simple j ai acheté 2 places pour Korn a Paris 280 euros au lieu de 140 Le nom sur les places est tout sauf moi. J ai contacté livenation ,. organisateur du concert et leur réponse a été claire Le site n' est pas agréé pour vendre des places, ils les achète a des particuliers qui se font une marge puis les revende a des gens comme vous et moi une fortune Bonne nouvelle ce sont des vrais billets Mauvaise nouvelle et la ce n' est pas moi qui le dit mais live nation, s agissant de billets reçus par mail il les vende autant de fois qu ils veulent..... Moralité tu dors devant la porte la veille sinon tu prends le risque que quelqu'un d autre qui a aussi acheté le billet rentre avant toi.... C est une pratique commerciale trompeuse Réponse de leur part lunaire alors que j avais mis en PJ l échange avec livenation : non non tout est ok vous inquiétez pas, je ne reverrai donc jamais mon argent Moralité je n irais pas car concert exceptionnel donc risque de revente plusieurs fois très élevé et entre le train l.hotel et le risque de pas rentrer . ..je suis dégoûté Il.ne faut pas acheter chez eux c est une Arnaque et ils sont a l'étranger donc intouchables
pa0x@reddit
Merci pour ton retour !
J'ai voulu acheter des places pour Tomorrowland sur ce site qui me semblait fiable au vu des avis sur trustpilot mais j'ai bien fait de faire des recherches plus approfondies et tomber sur ton partage

I just purchased 2 take that tickets for Dublin in July and after payment I did not receive them. Turns out they are not official sellers and don't actually have tickets to sell. I contacted them to cancel and they said that tickets are non-refundable. I responded that I have not received any tickets and I have not heard back from them. I purchased with Mastercard and am disputing the charges. I then went to Ticket Master Ireland and was able to purchase the tickets for half the price. Hello Tickets are a scam!!!
Own-Guidance7597@reddit
Please everyone do not buy tickets from hellotickets there scamming us all they take payment then you do not hear anything off this company no matter how many emails you send them. There too busy trying to get my trust pilot reviews removed everyday. If they have time to do this on trust pilot why cant they send a simple email confirming purchase and what seats we will be seated in they also over charge for the tickets so you expect excellent service but all I can say is there scamming people out of money stay with ticket master its safer. Companies like this need to be put out of business if you check trust pilot theyve got all different names hellotickets es, hellotickets dl, hellotickets it these are all one big company theve your reviews on every one of them and show proof to trust pilot you've purchase tickets from this company this way they cant get the review removed and they will fight every day to get them removed but keep putting your reviews back on as they will walk all over you if you let them. Im about 4 weeks in now with my reviews and there just giving up now . My reviews are honest and truthfully stay well clear of this company.
Own-Guidance7597@reddit
Im in the same situation they have up to the concert or booking to get the tickets too you once the date has gone then your entitled to a refund stand firm as im doing the same this company is a disgrace just pass the word not to buy from this company ive left loads of reviews on trust pilot they keep trying to get them removed from trust pilot but I keep sticking the reviews back on again as there not treating my 14 year old daughter like that as the tickets were for her birthday party .

Hello tickets is a scam avoid them at all costs or you will find out the hard way like i did tonight. We got to the venue only to be turned away as the tickets were fake. I knew something was suspicious when the digital tickets didn't have a QR or barcode to scan. Anyway we got turned away from the venue and were even given a letter from the venue confirming the tickets were fake. The venue said the letter may help to get my money back from the bank. I checked them out on trust pilot before purchasing the tickets as well so thought it would be fine. Please avoid at all costs and be cautious about anyone saying it was fine because its clearly not after my experience.

Finding that myself bought tickets 6 months ago and nothing sent to us
Inevitable-Tax-5340@reddit
Hello ive bought tickets off this company on the 9th October 2025 never had any confirmation we bought the tickets no seats confirmation or block or row confirmation if you understand all that and up to now we not going to loui tomlinson as weve not even had the tickets . Having major problem getting my money back off paypal as well as you cant do anything until the concert has been and gone . So all I can say don't buy ticket off hellotickets unless your willing to take a gamble with your money as weve now lost £336.00 for 3 tickets my bank is ready to step in as its fraud . SO PLEASE DO NOT BUY TICKETS OFF HELLOTICKETS IF YOU GO ON TRUST PILOT THIS COMPANIES SELLS IN EVERY COUNTRY GOING SO HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE THEY RIPPING OFF STAY WELL CLEAR OF THIS COMPANY

I bought tickets for HarryStyles concerts and they send me the information that they will send tickets before concert and they cooperate with provider. So i wrote to ticketmaster to make me sure, but they wrote me back that they are not cooperate with any third part resseler so - it's scam :3
DeviceNo9987@reddit
I bought two tickets in June 2025 for the Wales vs. France match on February 15, 2026 (Six Nations) for €658. Exorbitant fees, but oh well. I received the tickets two days before. Two low-end seats, at £50 (€57.50, so €115 total. I paid six times the price!). I couldn't go to the match. Too late to resell them. In any case, official websites only accept resales of tickets purchased directly. Besides, at that face value, my tickets would have resold for around €30. Hellotickets replied that everything was normal. Then stopped responding. A complete scam.
New-Sinatra5563@reddit
Hey, did you end up receiving your tickets?
GIC68@reddit (OP)

Buenas tardes. A mí me han estafado más de 200€ por unas entradas de André Rieu, concierto del 29 enero. Pagué 163€ por cada entrada del sector seis, planta cero, y me enviaron unas de 75€, sector seis, planta SEXTA. Al reclamar, me dijeron que eran del sector seis. Todas las plantas tienen sector seis. El precio varía según la planta. Envié todos los comprobantes de pago y de selección y no me han hecho ni caso. He intentado contactar por teléfono, y tampoco. NADA FIABLES

Absolute scam Bought tickets that didn't work No refund so far (despite daily emails with customer service)
Ambitious_Fig_7339@reddit
Very bad experience. Bought tix for family to see the rockettes. Paid over $600. Did not receive tickets and asked for a refund. Have not had a response. I would steer clear.

It’s normal even Ticketmaster sends tickets before the concert especially for a top artist
Seppel1900@reddit
Ich gehe morgen zu nem Premier league Spiel (Tottenham gg Chelsea) und meine Verlobte hat die Tickets auch von der Seite. Hatten die gleiche Situation dass die Tickets kurz vorher kommen sollten, hat aber bisher auch geklappt, die sind vor 2 Tagen oder so zugeschickt worden. Ob morgen alles glatt geht, sehen wir dann 🫣
