Important question about picking up tickets from the Box Office...

So, I'm ordering AUGUST tickets for tomorrow afternoon but am purchasing them on someone else's credit card...my login etc is under my name, the only thing that isn't is the credit card. But all I have is a copy of the credit card, not the card itself. Will they give me trouble at the box office if I pick it up without the credit card?


It's technically saved under my name since they don't ask the name of the cardholder but I just want to make sure before I buy the tickets.

It might ask if you want to hold the tickets under someone else's name. In that case, just put your own name in that box, and they will be under your name.

I've had it occur that I've both been asked for the credit card and not asked. They usually don't, but it really is a crapshoot.

You should be fine, but don't take my word for it.

They usually don't even ask for the credit card, or ANY id. But even if they do, a copy of the credit card is enough to pick up the tickets. Have that with you, just in case.

I have always been asked for the card or ID.

I have always been asked for an ID, but not necessarily the credit card.

When my mom bought tickets for me under her credit card I had her call telecharge and she had them put the tickets under my name specifically. I might call them just in case so you are sure things will go well.

I would definitely call telecharge. I work at a box office and I have often seen Ticketmaster cancel orders if address doesn't match credit card, etc. Just call them.

I just made a new account under the creditcard-holder's name and then entered my name where it said "if someone other than you is picking up the tickets..." so that shoud be fine...thanks guys!
