Working Advantage

It’s a great discount program! We use it every year when we go on trips. The best coupons are the theme parks and attractions! It’s nice to get an e-​ticket and not have to stand in line once at the parks and also they are at a discounted price!!!

When Working Advantage was in Massachusetts they were great. Always helpful on the phone, easy to reach, and knew what they were talking about.
I don’t know what’s happened to WA. That has all changed with the new website and staff. I was a FREQUENT buyer of tickets to sports and Broadway shows. Now I don’t buy any. At all. They’ve taken the fun out of it. Looks like they are deferring to brokers now. They used to have an inventory to choose from. Hope the folks in Massachusetts are working somewhere they’re appreciated.

Worst customer service I have ever dealt with. Placed an order and switched my adult and children tickets. Called them immediately and they refused to help correct the problem. Minutes after the order was placed and they still can’t help. Seriously? So I guess I lose the discount and they still make their commission. Very diappointing!

Discounts aren’t that great, plus additional processing fees and terrible customer service, rude people and not willing to provide assistance. Unless there are some amazing discounts in the future I would just stay away and save yourself the headache.

I have to disagree with people saying they don’t offer a good discount. I just ordered movie tickets, if I had bought them through the AMC website it would have cost me $ 78.20 for 5 tickets. Purchasing them through Working Advantage I only paid $ 50.75 for all 5 tickets. I saved $ 27.45, I’d say that’s a great deal.

Be wary of this company.
The tickets sold on Working Advantage are not a better deal than one would find at Costo, On top of that, their rude customer service agents make fixing WA’s errors very painful. Watch out for the fine print on tickets that you order.
Better yet, find a company that takes transparency and customer service seriously.

This company has the worst customer service in history. They processed my order wrong refuse to admit any wrong doing and refuse to fix the issue. I ordered theme park tickets and what they sent me were the wrong order with the wrong dates. When I asked them to refund or make the change to the correct order, they refused, even though they admit that they do have an inventory of tickets available to them. You’d think for the sake of customer service they would make the change and be done with it. The so called customer service agent Jenn Kibbe even went so far as to hang up on me on the phone. That was shocking as I was speaking when she just cut the line. She proceeded to lie about the series of events. Avoid doing business with them, you’ll end up spending more trying to fix their mistakes than you might possibly save.

Be careful when ordering.
I recently purchased Legoland Tickets and paid shipping, expecting hard tickets. However, they sent me printed (8“x11″) e-​Tickets instead, which I could have bought and printed myself in colors. Yeah, they sent me a B/​W e-​Tickets for LEGOLAND!
Sent email to customer service, and this Jenn Kibbe replied by saying they didn’t get hard tickets from Legoland anymore. Told her that the website advertised 2 specific links for Legoland, one for e-​Tickets and one for Tickets (which I opted to purchase). She never responded back afterwards. I guess it does not take much to be a customer service MANAGER?!
The links are misleading and dishonest to members, just to make an extra money for shipping! The links are still available as I am typing now. I am rethinking my future purchase with this agency and will refer this incident to our HR department.

I’m going to have to agree with other Unilocalers. I saw Disney World tickets were on Work advantage so I priced them. In total with tax they’re a whopping $ 5 more than going directly to the Disney World website. While Working Advantage is good for some things. be cautious

Working Advantage claims to offer discounts, but in some cases you are actually paying a lot more than the retail price. Be careful of excessive hidden fees and deceptive practices, like offering you the «member price» when you are actually paying a premium over the regular retail price. They also tack on high fees at checkout, and some orders cannot be cancelled once you pay.

Working Advantage is a great site often known to large corporations, companies, and in my case hospitals. I have bought tickets to Six Flags, and to Broadway and Off Broadway shows at least 5x often saving money. I’m also a smart shopper and prior to clicking «Buy,» i search online to other sites and I also make a call or two to confirm I am getting a good deal. and in my purchase history, all were good deals with savings of up to 40 $ total. If you review and gripe on here, you have NOT done your homework and that is your own fault.
i came on here to ask about seats to shows. that’s the annoying part. it’s a lottery. you never can tell where you will truly sit day of a show. they let you know maybe 2 weeks prior but if you order 1 – 3 months in advance you really can’t tell and have to trust them. my experience has been the seats overall have been good. what’s yours in regards to seating ONLY? dont care about anything else…

It’s incredibly annoying how Working Advantage nickels and dimes you to death when you order movie tickets. Shipping charges (even though tickets are typically sent First Class Mail at $ 0.49), processing charges, and the latest (added to e tickets delivered electronically) a «tax recovery charge». All of these charges are roughly $ 2 to $ 3 dollars and are questionably justifiable. These «profit centers» just add to the cost of each ticket, reducing your ultimate savings.

Tried to buy tickets through their Corporate «discount» site and after all of their «fees» four tickets to Water Country is actually $ 12 more expensive than if I were to go straight through Water Country’s site.
Sounds to me like some Ticket Master type foolery. The site is super slow, continuously breaks, and most importantly — YOU DO NOT SAVE MONEY.
Spend your hard earned money elsewhere. It’s 2014, middlemen do not need to exist unless it’s beneficial to the consumer.

I recommend comparing this site with Plum Benefits. I almost bought Broadway tickets for $ 50 but they were much cheaper on PB! I usually get theme park tickets from here, but also look at PB if it’s cheaper (sometimes PB don’t have them).

I’m surprised to see all the bad reviews. David R.‘s review is right, you do have to wade through all the noise on their site. But buy your AMC/​Regal/​etc. movie tickets from these guys, and you won’t regret it! I’ve purchased the AMC Gold tickets through Working Advantage for years with no trouble. I get to use the tickets on opening nights and if it’s an IMAX or 3D movie, you turn in your gold ticket and then pay the small up-​charge that you typically would have to pay for IMAX/​3D.

Horrible service. I’ve used them twice and I should have learned the first time. Both times they sent me horrible seats. I checked after I received the tickets and could have bought the tickets through another site that let’s you pick the seats and they were cheaper. I called customer service and said they couldn’t do anything. Do not use this site. It’s a ripoff.

Bought Broadway tickets for a very popular show. Paid $ 249 each, a «savings» according to Working Advantage. When the tix arrived, the face value on the tix was $ 165. That is not a savings… perhaps over secondary market prices (scalpers), but not a «deal» I would expect from a firm endorsed by the company I work for. When I call customer service they really had no answer — just hemmed and hawed and said it was a very popular show and by law they have to print the value on the ticket. Did not answer my question. So far, my email and call to a manager have gone unanswered.
Really, I bought these tix in March for an August show, and today, mid-​July, I can go online and buy similar seats from scalpers for the price I paid Working Advantage. Can you say RIP OFF and DECEIT?

I ordered tickets to a show months ago. This is a very popular show that is now close to sold-​out, Ticket prices are very high. I thought I was being smart by buying ahead through WA – alas. Today, I was was told that instead of 4 tickets, I will get 2. Fantastic!
Though they have some ok deals ($ 2 off movie tickets), buyer beware. When they mess up your planned for months event, you will receive an apologetic phone call/​email for the «inconvenience». You’ll ALSO be lucky enough to receive an email trying to sell you some other stuff. Oh goodie, just what I need!

My gripe with Working Advantage is that while they do have some very good deals only available to members, you have to wade through lots of links where the «savings» offered is no different from what you get if buying directly to the product website. If everyone gets the same «discount», whether you’re a Working Advantage member or not, it is not really a deal at all… it’s just advertising.
That said, after some searching I did find some good deals that were only available to Working Advantage members.
I agree there is value to having easy access to all the discount offers, but Working Advantage would be far more appealing as a «go to» discount site if they would flag them in some way that you can tell the difference between special deals only available to members versus all the others.

This site is a great little secret. If you have a business (even if you’re the only employee), you can sign up here and get lots of discount products.
My favorite deal is movie tickets to AMC and Pacific Theaters for $ 6.50 each. I love walking into a movie on Saturday night and redeeming these little babies for tickets to a movie that everyone else has paid $ 13.75 for. God, I love to save money!
And I love to help YOU save money, which is why I’m letting this secret out. Ironically, you won’t see this review unless you look up the name of this business and if you’ve done that, you probably don’t need this review. Sigh.
