I I emailed Customer Services and Kay responded almost immediately. She kindly issued me with some digital tokens to replace my old ones. I was Impressed at just how quick the response was. She was so efficient and professional. Within hours of my email I received my E-gift. The service was above and beyond my expectations. She is a credit to the company. A well deserved 5 stars.

Missing vouchers

I made contact via email to ask for help in locating some missing vouchers. I couldn't have asked for a better response, very quick and resolved our issue by resending the missing email. Well deserving of a five star review. Thank you again

Fantastic Customer Service

Tried unsuccessfully to use an older style Theatre Token for an online booking, so I emailed Customer Services and Kay responded almost immediately. She kindly issued me with some digital tokens to replace mine and I was able to make my booking with the theatre's website. Impressed at just how quick the response was. So rewarding to have tokens that don't go out of date and to receive such helpful and speedy 'real person' (not robotic) customer service. Bravo.

Excellent customer care.

I contacted customer the customer care team as I had an issue with my token that I couldn't resolve. I had a very prompt response to my query and received a further email within a short space of time which meant my issue had been dealt with,in full,to my satisfaction in a very professional and courteous manner. Kay was just great.

Fantastic service from Kay AR.

Kay AR was most helpful in sorting my problem exchanging Theatre Tokens. Her emails were clear as to what she was doing and any further information she needed from me. My problem was quickly resolved and Kay sorted the exchange on my behalf. Excellent, first class service. Thank you Kay.

Problem sorted - thanks

My son gave us a Theatre Token for Christmas and when we tried to use it to book seats we could not uncover the pin number required to complete the transaction. We contacted Theatre Tokens by email in the late evening and received a response first thing the following morning advising that a replacement voucher and pin would be sent with two hours. Shortly afterward the new token arrived by email.
Problem sorted by Kay Adams- Ripley - many thanks Kay.

lost voucher - great support

I had lost my voucher (bought for me by someone else) so contacted them to see if they could help me locate it, and my first email back from them was confirmation they’d re-sent it over. Very straight forward to deal with via email and friendly support - nothing to complain about!

Superb customer service.

We'd had a large number of Theatre Tokens in a drawer which we'd never got round to using. Following guidance on their website I was able to register many to my account but was left with 9 that I couldn't due to no PIN. I emailed customer services with copies of the tokens asking for help to avoid losing over £200.00. Within about 30 minutes I received a most helpful and informative reply from Henry Dickinson, Customer Services and Operations Associate which reassured me that the tokens are still valid and how to proceed. I am most impressed and grateful for the first class advice and service that I received from Henry and wish that more organisations that I deal with could match it.

WARNING: The "Theatre Token" Premium-Rate Trap

If you are trying to book tickets using a pre-paid Theatre Token, beware of ATG's premium-rate phone trap.
Our journey started on their official website, which completely lacks the basic digital functionality to accept Theatre Tokens at checkout. This forces voucher holders offline to complete their booking.
While trying to find the Box Office number to redeem our £100 voucher, we found 0844 871 3000—a number actively operated by ATG and widely published online for venues like the Savoy and the Lyceum.
Here is the trap: When you call this active ATG line, it connects you directly to their booking staff. However, it plays NO automated pricing warning, nor does it play a message telling you to hang up and dial their standard-rate 0333 number instead. They just drop you straight into a 30-minute holding queue. By the time our tickets were booked, we had been charged £31.89 in premium-rate access and service charges just to use a gift voucher.
When we raised this to their Customer Service team (an agent named Sean), the response was appalling. Instead of acknowledging that they operate an active premium line without an upfront warning, they blamed us for not digging through their Help Centre to find the alternative 0333 number, and flatly refused to refund the £31.89.
This is a classic "Dark Pattern." They force you offline because of their broken digital checkout, keep a premium-rate line active that routes directly to their staff, fail to put a cost warning on the line, and then keep the revenue when you inevitably fall into the queue.
They are operating revenue protection, not customer service. Do not trust them. We have now escalated this to STAR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) and reported the lack of phone pricing warnings to Trading Standards and Ofcom.

Reply from Theatre Tokens

Hi Susannah—thanks for your feedback regarding your booking experience with ATG. I am very sorry to hear about the trouble you had and will pass your feedback on to ATG.

Whilst we are trying to get as many venues redeeming online as possible, at this point it is not something that ATG are set up to do directly. Theatre Tokens may be used to book online for all the ATG theatres in the West End on OfficialLondonTheatre.com and for the remaining venues we display their free contact details on the “Where To Use” section of our website to try and make the booking process as clear as we can.

Whilst we do not have any operational control over ATG’s call centre or how they chose to take bookings, if you are able to share with me over email some of your correspondence with them I will do my best to help. You can contact us on hello@theatretokens.com.

I hope too that you receive some helpful guidance from STAR.

Again, I'm very sorry for the trouble you had using your Theatre Tokens.

Thanks, Henry

Exemplary customer service 😊

I was trying to use two theatre tokens but when I tried to reveal the pin it didn’t come off very well and I couldn’t read the PIN numbers. I emailed Theatre Tokens and in less than fifteen minutes they had replied to me and reissued my tokens as an egift. I was incredibly impressed by the prompt resolution to my query, particularly as it was close to the end of their working day and I hadn’t expected to receive a reply until at least the next day.

Theatre Tokens is a family favourite

I have used Theatre Tokens for years as presents and receiving presents. It’s a great voucher to give and receive. Recently I registered a new voucher and realised I had some vouchers from 7years ago unused. These were reissued within 10 min of the request. Very pleased

Theatre tokens make a great gift and…

Theatre tokens make a great gift and can be delivered at the last minute as an e-gift, which is a great help if, like me, you don’t always get organised in advance!
On this occasion the gift did not arrive as it should have but a quick message to Theatre Tokens was all it took to resolve the situation and the gift arrived safely. I was impressed with the immediate response from Henry and was very grateful for the immediate attention my request received. Thank you!

Excellent customer service

I recently bought theatre vouchers and requested for them to be sent via Royal Mail. However, 9 days later they still had not arrived and the birthday they were for was rapidly approaching. I contacted customer service and was very quickly and professionally looked after by Kay. She apologised and explained that Royal Mail have been underperforming significantly and that she would immediately send me an electronic voucher to replace the one that had been posted, to ensure I had it in time for my gift.

Superb customer service from Kay. I found some very old certificates and emailed to ask whether they were still valid - within a few hours I had new electronic codes in my email. Can't fault it!

Amazing customer service

I had originally registered my theatre token when I received it for my birthday two years ago. What I didn't realise was that I needed to keep the original e-mail.
However, I requested to have the e-mail found again for me and within a working day I received it and can now happily spend it.
Amazing customer service!
