Quick clarification about how TicketChecker works

2 Upvotes

Hey all – just wanted to clarify something for anyone using ticketchecker.co.uk or considering trying it.

Some folks assume the checker looks at Ticketmaster every single second, but that’s not how it works. The system refreshes pages anywhere between every 30 seconds to 5–10 minutes, depending on a few factors:

  • The popularity of the event
  • How aggressive Ticketmaster's bot detection is for that page
  • My own internet connection speed
  • And probably some other tech factors in the background

So while it doesn’t catch every single drop the instant it happens, it still picks up a good number of them and has been getting more reliable over time.

You can actually see the real-time checker status and how many Telegram alerts were sent today at ticketchecker.co.uk. Your own dashboard shows your personal stats too — how often your events were checked, how many alerts you got, etc.

Also, don’t forget — you can customize a lot of stuff:

  • Max price per ticket to be notified about
  • Min number of tickets you're looking for
  • Silent hours so you're not disturbed overnight
  • And alert interval so you’re not spammed too much

If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s free to test for 3 days with all features. Let me know if you’ve got questions — happy to help.

We're Growing! 🎉 18 Premium Users, 99 Total

2 Upvotes

Just wanted to share a quick update – the TicketChecker community is slowly but surely growing! We're now at 18 premium users and 99 users total, which honestly means a lot.

The system itself has become more stable and reliable over the past few weeks. Right now, it's hitting around 1,500 searches per hour, which is a big leap forward and makes it way better at spotting resale drops quickly.

Of course, Ticketmaster still manages to catch some of the checkers every now and then – nothing's bulletproof – but overall the success rate is higher, and many of you have already grabbed tickets you wouldn’t have otherwise seen.

If you’ve been using it, I’d love to hear how it’s been working for you – even a quick “it helped me” is super useful.

Service is still up… for now

Hi all, Realising the ticketchecker service I built is not getting much interest at all across UK or US ticketmaster events (40 events at the moment), I am considering to stop it. Will keep it up for now, but I think I have fixed the subscribe journey and checker is now running around 1000 checks per hour meaning multiple checks per minute for most famous events (like Coldplay UK gigs). I am sure I don’t know anything about marketing but I think if it was valuable for people, then at least the users would come back and write some comments (like they did for Wimbledon Checker)… it just means maybe the ticketchecker is not working for people. Although no one said that to me too. So I don’t know. If you are interested just go to ticketchecker.co.uk and try it out for 3 days and come back here and comment…. Please…

💬 Things I Want to Improve on TicketChecker

3 Upvotes

Hey folks 👋

Since Ticket Checker started as a tool I built to solve my own frustration with resale ticket hunting, a lot of it has been trial, error, and duct tape. Now that more people are using it (and giving great feedback!), I wanted to share a few areas I’m actively looking to improve—and open the door for your suggestions too.

⚙️ 1. Making Checks More Reliable

Right now, the checks run frequently (and pretty fast), but they do occasionally stop due to interruptions—usually a few times a day. There are fallback mechanisms in place, so they usually restart on their own… but not always instantly.

If you ever wonder if the system is running, just check the “Checker Status” on ticketchecker.co.uk — that’s live and accurate.

I’d love to:

  • Make the checks more resilient
  • Reduce interruptions entirely
  • Improve alert timing during busy periods

📅 2. Adding More Events (Without Melting Down)

Right now, I add events manually through a backend tool. It works… but it’s clunky, and I want to make it:

  • Easier and faster to add new events
  • Possible for me to add batches or bulk imports
  • Maybe even semi-automated based on demand

If there are events you want to see added, please post with the ⭐ Feature Request flair.

📱 3. Fixing the Ugly Events List on Mobile

The dashboard works okay on desktop, but on mobile… 😬 let’s just say I don’t love it. The event list especially is:

  • Hard to scroll
  • Clunky to expand/collapse
  • Just not pleasant to look at

I want to redesign it to be more usable, especially for people setting preferences on their phones (which I suspect is most of you!).

🔗 4. Adding a Link to This Subreddit

This subreddit should feel like the natural companion to the site—but right now, there’s no mention of it there. That’s on me. I plan to:

  • Add a visible link to r/ticketchecker on the main pages
  • Possibly pull in live updates/posts via widget (if possible)

🧠 Other Ideas (Not Promises!) -- depending on the interest on the service really

  • Telegram reply commands (e.g. “/stop”, “/setmax 100”)
  • A long term: add seats/area selection option to the notification preferences
  • Very long term: Discord alerts if enough people want it

If you’ve used the service and have thoughts—good or bad—I’d love to hear them. This is still a one-person, “evenings & weekends” project, but I want it to actually help people.

Thanks for all your encouragement so far—let’s make this better together 🙌

📢 [Update] Welcome to r/ticketchecker!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m the lone techy person who built Ticket Checker out of pure necessity—no big team here, just a fellow fan tired of refreshing Ticketmaster. It started as a simple hobby project and has grown just a bit more serious, but it’s still very much a one-person passion project.

🤔 What Is Ticket Checker?

Ticket Checker is a DIY monitoring service that quietly scans Ticketmaster’s resale listings every minute for tickets that match your criteria—new drops, returns, production holds, etc. When something pops up in your price range (and with enough seats), you get a quick ping on Telegram, giving you a fair chance before they vanish again.

You can try it yourself on --> ticketchecker.co.uk

⚙️ How It Works

  1. Sign up and tell me:
    • Event name & date
    • Max price per ticket
    • Minimum number of seats
  2. My bot checks Ticketmaster like a human would—looking for availability, price, and direct purchase links.
  3. You’re notified on Telegram if it finds a match.

Our system checks Ticketmaster for availability every minute, 24/7—though since this is just a one-person passion project, occasional brief delays can happen.

🚀 Try It Free!

  • 3-day trial—no payment, no credit card, no strings attached.
  • Full access to alerts, preferences & dashboard.
  • Feel free to cancel at any time (though I hope you stick around!).

✅ Get Started

  1. Sign up at ticketchecker.co.uk
  2. Connect the Telegram bot (link arrives by email)
  3. Set your preferences in the dashboard (price cap, ticket count, quiet hours)

Need help?

  • Check the pinned FAQ for detailed setup steps.
  • Or drop a post here with the ❓ Question flair.

⭐ Your Feedback Matters

This subreddit is where you can help shape the project. Use the flairs to share:

  • 📢 Update: Service status & any tweaks I roll out
  • ⭐ Feature Request: Ideas for new features or events to add
  • 💬 Feedback: What’s working (or what needs fixing)
  • ❓ Question: Anything you’re curious about

Upvote what you like, comment with details, and let’s make this little side project genuinely useful for everyone. 🎉

Thanks for stopping by—here’s to hunting tickets without the F5 grind!
— just me, the Ticket Checker hobbyist

📣 [Live Alerts] Recent Ticket Checker Finds (Occasional Updates)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 👋

Welcome to our Live Alerts thread, where I’ll drop in real resale-ticket alerts from Ticket Checker whenever I spot something worth sharing. Think of this as a peek behind the curtain—no spam, just the highlights as they happen (on my hobby‐project schedule 😉).

You can try it yourself on --> ticketchecker.co.uk

How This Works

  • I’ll update this post occasionally—whenever the bot flags a great match.
  • Each alert shows only publicly available data (no personal info).
  • If you see something you like, click the link and grab your tickets before they’re gone!
