It's two days before the event, and my tickets haven't arrived. Contact us with your order number and let us know. We will try to locate your tickets. If we can't, we'll replace them with tickets that are as good as or better than the ones you bought or provide you a full refund, including service fees and shipping and handling charges. I have my tickets and I'm at the event, but I can't get into the venue. We have an excellent Trust and Safety team dedicated to preventing problems just like this. If you can't get into the venue because there is something wrong with the tickets, call us immediately at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482). Our Customer Service team will immediately start working on finding you tickets that are as good as or better than the ones you bought.

If we can't get you replacement tickets or if the event is cancelled, you can return your unused tickets for a full refund, including service fees and shipping and handling charges. Ok, but now I can't make the event on the date it was rescheduled. You can always list your tickets on StubHub and give someone else a chance to buy them. But we understand that's not always possible. If you can't make the rescheduled date, you can return your tickets to us for a credit toward a future purchase. I have no idea where I put my tickets! The first thing to do if your tickets are lost or stolen is to contact us with your order number. We'll contact the seller to see if they can get the tickets reissued. While sellers aren't always able to get tickets reprinted, we'll do our best to help you out. I accidentally bought tickets for the wrong date or event. We all make mistakes. And if you make one on StubHub, it's easy to re-list your tickets. Just go to My Account and click the link next to the tickets you want to re-list. If you need help, give our customer support team a call. We can even help you find tickets for the date or event you wanted to buy for. I just got my tickets and they aren t the ones I ordered. If it's prior to the event and the tickets you received are not the ones you ordered, give us a call. We'll find you replacement tickets that are comparable to or better than the tickets you ordered or we'll give you a refund for the full cost of the tickets, including service fees and shipping and handling charges. My seats weren't what I was promised on the site. We do our best to make sure sellers properly represent the quality of their seats. But we know it can be tough to identify all the details that make for a great experience. So, if for some reason, after you attend the event, your seats were different from how they were represented on the site, let us know and we will provide you a credit toward a future purchase. |
