Get Smart with TicketNetwork

For ticket purchases to any concert, sporting, or theater event, TicketNetwork issues the following recommendations to its customers:

(1) Buy your tickets from a reputable distributor. If you opt to purchase your tickets from an unknown vendor, be sure to research customer reviews and/or call their customer service line to get a sense of their level of service. Any reputable vendor should provide customer service Mon-Fri 9 a.m.-5 p.m., at minimum. The TicketNetwork customer service center is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. - 1 a.m.
(2) Confirm the website check-out is secure. It is not enough for an online retailer to "say" their website is secure -- it needs to be certified by an approved scanning vendor (ASV). TicketNetwork, for example, is certified by ControlScan. In addition, it has added EVSSL (Extended Verification Secure Socket Layer) check-out security. You know a site is EVSSL secure when the URL bar at the top turns GREEN.
