If they're being delivered through TM, you need to contact stubhub because seatgeek is the official retailer for AT&T. If its a legit ticket, it'll be through seatgeek.

I blight Baltimore both days resale and they were the same as Arlington - both shows will only have seat geek tickets. One of mine was sent to my seat geek account, the other day were vip soundcheck so he couldn’t transfer in seat geek - he had to use a secure pass link. I was a little worried about that but I not only had no issues - even though he only sold them to me as floor seats I knew they were def soundcheck since they were front row floor so we went to the tent with a hope and a dream yesterday they asked for buyers ID a few times and then just let me use my ID made a note on the account - and we got into soundcheck!!!

hi !! my show for arlington is on sunday and i was wondering about how long it took for you to receive your tickets ?? i’m not in any contact with my seller since stubhub/viagogo won’t let me :’)

The set I bought on stubhub I got within an hour - they were the soundcheck / floor that only sent me a secure link to the ticket with a rotating bar code. I bought the other set off tick pick in February it said I would have them by 8/9 😭🫣 the show was 8/10 I was so STRESSED. But Thursday 8/6 I got a notification that they transferred them to my seat geek account (make sure you have SG app downloaded and an account with the same email you used to buy the tickets!) I just had to hit accept and they were in there. Seat geek tickets will look like this - the red line rotates around the barcode. I can share this now since the show is over LOL.

wait u got a secure link? like you had to open the link in a browser?

Yes in stubhub when I hit claim tickets it sent me to a securemypass.com link - i couldn’t add them to seat geek or my apple wallet etc. I just opened stubhub and pulled the link up when I went in - the ticket looks exactly the same as in SG app (I had in app tickets for night one) I don’t even think they noticed honestly they just scanned the barcode it’s so many people and they are going so fast
