LW Theatres Recenzje 

So sick of booking agencies too anal to actually send out tickets you have paid for ON TIME. Why should we have to wait and stress right up to a few hours before a show before receiving our tickets?? Especially e-tickets. Unable to contact them - bugger all customer support. Never using this useless bunch again.

Excellent and professional experience with LW.
We received a confirmation email (to junk mail) of our details, seats, and cost instantly.
A few days in advance we received a second email welcoming us to The Cambridge Theatre and reminding us to check for our e tickets 24hrs before hand.
Sure enough the tickets arrived the night before and scanned no problem at the door.
A very delightful experience with LW.
The show was fantastic and the staff were extremely friendly and professional.

No compassion my mother died so could not go to the London palladium panto December 21 e mailed them no reply emailed again they said they wouldn’t refund or give me a voucher as I hadn’t contacted them which I had e mail to prove it plus got the tickets still they where not interested even under the circumstances DO NOT BOOK WITH LW THEATRES 😡😡😡😡😡😡🙏

My experience with LW Theatres customer relations was excellent! Thank you for the immediate response and the good communication and for resolving my issue right away. I highly recommend LW Theatres and am very pleased with this positive experience (- after having several horrible experiences with ATG Tickets!)

My husband and I went too this show on 07/12/21 Whitney queen of the night and it was absolutely awful !!!! Not the show it was the way the theatre was run ! There were drunken women everywhere and isles were blocked by drunk women dancing and being stupid !! I was goaded all night by a women who was absolutely off her face ! I had a disabled ticket as I have major back and bone problems and she kept draping herself over me saying why u not dancing and I said I can’t she the replied right in my face u can use your arms !!! They we’re up and down all evening treading all over me being told off them sat down again and as soon as your superviser left they did it again !!! The staff were hopeless and could
Not control the situations occurring !! I reported it too the superviser along with others as if there was a fire people would not of got out !! He wasn’t interested at all !!! It was awful and a total waste of money and didn’t follow Covid rules !!!

The only contact channel is by email. So if you want to contact them urgently you have to email them. But they take 4 days to respond to emails. So if you're emailing about a show within the next 3 days I wouldn't count on getting a reply. I sent them two emails four days ago about a show that's taking place tonight. I got a response today, 6 hours before the show. Not ideal as I needed urgent help to resell the tickets due to getting covid. Also the agent only saw my oldest email. But my newest email had critical information for him to solve my problem. Terrible customer experience. Get yourselves a ticketing system where the agents see all communication with a customer in one place. Would save you a lot of time and lower response times as well.

My SIL purchased tickets last year for Joseph and completed their refund form, but has not got any money back. I have now started proceedings with STAR (star.org.uk) to hopefully get money back, otherwise I will have to with my bank issuer.

I could not praise the staff in Her Majesty’s Theatre highly enough. On arrival at the theatre for The Phantom the Opera we were greeted by very friendly and helpful staff. I am a wheelchair user. Ellie took great care of us from start to finish making sure we got positioned in our booked seats and handled all aspects of our evening. She offered help with refreshments and ensured easy access to the nearby bathroom when required. She checked with us about exiting the theatre and ensured we knew our way to transport. In addition to a wonderful show, the customer service from start to end was impeccable. Many thanks to Ellie and to her very friendly colleague Gemma.

Tried to contact LW Theatres about my Access (disabled) tickets - no access telephone line at the moment so I had to email. Emailed 2 weeks before the show and was told it would be 72 hours til I got a response. No response ever came! All I wanted to do was upgrade my tickets as I had been sold restricted view tickets without being told and my eyesight is very poor due to my disability. Would not book through LW again!

Utterly disgusting behaviour - LW Theatres market that they want to assist and provide support to those people with special needs, so after hearing this tried to book Frozen for my special needs daughter in December as a Christmas Treat with the family. They ask you to fill out a form and provide accompanying documentation to 'prove' she has special needs. At the time there were plenty of seats available at reasonable prices. We expected a turnaround time of 72 hours as stated on the 'no-reply' email response that they send back. We got nothing back for 5 weeks!!!, they then asked us if we needed to book for the date and time we requested as they only had single seats left, why offer that when you have someone who needs support - clueless. They suggested another time and date but the seats were £600.00 for 4 and they weren't even particularly well situated. After being very responsive while trying to relieve me of my cash, when I started to complain I haven't heard anything back even though I have pursed it a number of times. In addition you will find that they don't have a complaints process at all on their website or as a company. Can't go bankrupt soon enough in my view........you get better service from Odeon and Cineworld when dealing with people with special needs........rot in hell!!

I purchased tickets to see Frozen in 2020 which took place on 30th Sept after a number of rescheduled shows..I picked grand circle row A so my daughter could see the whole stage. 2 days before the performance my seats were moved to Row B without any notice.

I have tried numerous times to get in contact with this theatre via email as the phone lines do not work for an explanation and have had no response. They say they will respond to emails regarding pcoming shows within 72 hours however it was only 48 hours before the show and to this day after a number of follow up emails I am still waiting to get an answer.

This ruined the evening for us and would like an explanation to why our seats were moved 2 days before the show without any notice and no possible way to contact them! The staff were quite rude when I tried to seat my daughter in a position on my lap without interfering with the people behind us and I get told off - I moaned that she couldnt see even sitting on the booster and they walked away.

I am now going to take this further and send an offical complaint letter by registred post to them and contact STAR as I am really not happy with this service!

We had tickets for frozen for the 4th September show, we decided to cancel as we didn’t feel comfortable with the no mask rule, which they were happy for us to do so. 1st sept 2021 had an email from them saying they had sold on our tickets and the finance department would be in touch to give us a refund, we have been patiently waiting but nothing for a month so I tried contacting the theatre via email to chase this up as we had no other form of communication option and we have had no response what so ever since 1st September, I’m unsure why I am being ignored and not being reassured that the money for 6 tickets is on its way!

If anyone has any advise on how to get in touch any other way please pass it on.

No telephones answered and emails ignored!

I bought two tickets to take my little girl to see Frozen. It has been rescheduled a couple of times due to covid which is fine. I needed to reschedule which according to their terms you can do up to 24 hours prior to the performance. I have been trying to contact somebody at LW Theatres since 22 Sept today is 5th Oct - no luck! They do not answer the phone they advise you to email them on their website but the do not respond. So they have my money and I have no tickets!!! Now left having to try and escalate this through other means and it is such a shame as this was a treat for my Daughter. Terrible way to treat people who have paid their money to you!

Do not use this site. Tickets are not provided on request and trying to contact a rep is impossible. The only communication is via email and LW just keep sending the same reply.

The service is so poor it makes one wonder whether the whole setup isn't a scam and I have lost my money.

My advice is use a reputable ticket office that sends tickets on request.

LW do not mention that tickets are not provided at the time of booking, which makes me wonder whether they are able to confirm my booking has been made and is secured with the Theatre.

Bought tickets for a show months ago, confirmation advises tickets will be sent 24 hours by email to your email address.
No tickets or email arrive. No phone number to call and speak to a human, just an unhelpful automated answerphone message advising you to email. Auto response from email... it takes up to 72 hours for a response! How utterly genius. So they will likely respond two days AFTER the show. Support the theatres they say! We are trying guys but you MUST try harder for a better customer service response time with this ridiculous new policy. Complaint going in to STAR.

I had tickets to see Cinderella with a friend at the Gillian Lynn Theatre, booked a long time in advance. They keep moving the date of our performance, despite the fact that those performances are going ahead, due to covid. They are instead booking new people into the performance we were supposed to see, and forcing us to choose a new date online.

If a performance is happening on the date that we originally booked, that booking should be honoured and not moved so that others can book onto that date.

The performance of Back to the future the musical at the weekend that I had booked to attend was cancelled due to cast sickness. I was notified at 2.30pm the day before, but didn't see it till later in the evening. I had already booked trains to London, and it was too late to cancel, I had to pay for 3 people a £60 admin fee to change- and had to book the new theatre tickets within the next 6 weeks because of train availability. My only options with theatre tickets was to pay more a higher priced ticket, £10 more each. I contacted customer services just to see if there was anything they could offer. It caused a lot of inconvenience and money, even a free programme or voucher for the gift shop. They said they would offer nothing. I'll hopefully enjoy the show, if its not cancelled again but I'll never see another show represented by LWT.

LW are pretty deceitful:
- they add automatically the most expensive tickets to your tray. If you delete them and add cheaper ones, continue, but push the Back button and the continue again, your choice gets replaced by the most expensive tickets. I fell for this and noticed only when I got a confirmation email. Why automatically add tickets to the tray? No other website does this.
- asking for a refund by email, they gave me vouchers that apply to the same show only! I asked for a refund again (politely) but they blocked my email address
- due to editing in their emails, if you reply to their email, the contents of your email don't show up in my email system under Sent. So you cannot argue that you sent the email in the first place
- they take no phone calls. They have an automated message that emails only. Now that they have blocked me, how can I do that?
- LW Theatres is a member of STAR, the society of ticket agents and retailers, that states "As outlined in Section C of the STAR Code of Practice, STAR members should inform customers that they have access to a free ADR service through STAR when reaching the conclusion of their own internal complaints procedure. Details of how to contact STAR and make a complaint through ADR should be provided to the customer by the STAR member."
When I got the response to my customer complaint, there was no text about any of that above. So LW Theatres is violating their agreement with STAR.

Edit: after my contacting them somehow? A senior person called me, apologised, and issued a full refund.

Show cancelled, so got given a voucher for the amount of the tickets. Re-booked slightly cheaper tickets and was told that they cannot refund the balance of the voucher. I just have to use it to go and see another show, which seems presumptuous and somewhat unfair considering they cancelled the original booking. Will avoid using again.

Gillian Lynne Theatre - Liam

I have a hidden disability and have a mobility scooter, Liam made my experience 10000% better. Right from the moment I got there he took me to the lift, told me a safe place to store the scooter, escorted me to my seat and even went and collected me some merchandise during the interval then brought them to my seats. He was super friendly, patient and understanding. He came to me at the end to escort me back to my scooter and waited until I left the building before continuing with the rest of his duties. I can’t thank him enough for such a wonderful experience and just being a kind person, it really goes a long way.
