Where are my tickets?

The best way to find out where your tickets are is to use our ticket tracker.

You'll need your booking reference number (contained in the confirmation email we sent you when you ordered your tickets or given to you verbally if you ordered using the phone) and your email address. Just follow the on screen instructions and you'll soon find what stage your order is at.

You can change your address online by using this form.

I've lost my tickets - what can I do?

The first step is to contact us.

If you have booked online email us at:
customerservices@seetickets.com

Or call customer services on the following number if you made the booking by telephone or if the event is within 48 hours on

0870 060 0958

.

It's important to realise that some types of ticket just cannot be replaced. For example most sorts of general admission or standing tickets cannot be reissued as that might mean the venue would exceed its capacity, contravene health and safety and so jeopardise its license. The good news is that for most other events, tickets can be reissued - they're usually left at the box office for collection by the cardholder upon presentation of the card used to pay for them.

You may be asked to complete an indemnity form stating you have lost the tickets.

I live outside the UK. Will you mail my tickets to me?

It is not always possible to post tickets overseas. You will need to collect them at the venue, if:

• The tickets would normally be despatched by secure mail (£4.80 transaction fee), or
• The event is less than 20 days away.

In these circumstances, or if you have requested to collect your tickets from the venue, they are available for collection one hour prior to the start of the performance. Please take the card you booked with, and quote your reference number when you collect your tickets.

Do I need ID to collect my tickets at the Box Office?

Yes - you will need to present the credit or debit card you used to make your purchase with us. We also recommend that you print and keep your email confirmation handy as further proof of your purchase.

Can a third party collect my tickets from the box office?

No. The cardholder needs to collect and produce the credit card used to make payment and sign a receipt. This is part of the credit card merchant agreement and is in place to protect both theboxoffice.com and the cardholder from potential credit card fraud.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

We regret that we cannot exchange, refund, transfer or return tickets unless the event in question is cancelled or details of the event are significantly changed (for example, show time, venue, date etc).

I have not received my tickets.

Track your order using your booking reference and email address. This will show details confirming your order and whether your tickets have been mailed out to you yet.

I have been sent the wrong tickets/wrong number of tickets.

Please contact us as soon as possible.

How can I find out if tickets for an event are on sale?

Two ways - search or browse. To search for an event, type its name into the search box at the top of the page and click Search. You'll get back a list of everything on our database that matches your search word or phrase, so make sure your spelling is correct. To browse for an event, click on the relevant event link (for example, Theatre), then choose a sub category. Repeat this until you find what you're looking for.

I can't make the performance - can I exchange my tickets or get a refund?

Unfortunately not. theboxoffice.com has a policy of no refunds or exchanges. The only exception is if the event is cancelled or rescheduled.

Back to top

Can I purchase tickets by phone?

Of course. You can call our telephone booking hotline on

0870 230 1555

at any time to make a booking. Our call centre staff are the best in the business and are only too happy to help.

I don't have a credit card. Can I pay by cash or cheque?

Sorry, no. theboxoffice.com is a credit card business only. Customers wishing to pay by cheque, cash or theatre tokens (theatre bookings only) should write directly to the venue Box Office.

Back to top

How do I get a reference number?

You get one automatically as part of the booking process. If you buy over the Internet we'll send you a confirmation email that will include a booking reference number. If you buy over the phone we'll give you your booking reference at the end of placing your order. You'll need your booking reference if you want to track the progress of your order using our ticket tracker, so keep it safe.

Back to top

My tickets have arrived and they're not what I asked for - what can I do?

Call our customer service department on 0870 060 0958 and, after we've apologised, we'll sort things out. Obviously you need to contact us before the event - we can't rectify things retrospectively.

Why oh why do I have to pay a service charge?

The price of a ticket is set by the event organisers. They don't pay us anything to sell their tickets, so in order to make money theboxoffice.com has to charge a little bit on top of the face value of the ticket. We have to do this on a per-ticket basis to cover the cost of providing a 7 day a week, 24 hour a day booking service, order processing, labour costs, credit card commissions and all the other costs associated with running our business. The actual amount we charge is negotiated with the venue or promoter for each event.

Back to top

What happens if an event is cancelled or rescheduled?

As soon as an event is officially cancelled we'll contact you via the contact details you gave us when you booked your tickets. We'll then explain what happens next, usually a choice between attending a rescheduled event or getting your money back.

Back to top

Is your site secure?

Yes it is. For security when booking, your details are transmitted using industry standard 128 bit SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. You'll need to be using a browser compatible with SSL (most modern ones are).

How do I contact theboxoffice.com customer services?

Before you do that, are you sure you need to? Most of the questions our customer service people get asked are answered here or elsewhere on this site. However, if you do need to speak to our customer service people then the best place to start is here.
