With limited tickets available for each show, those who haven’t received their presale codes in a timely manner are left anxious and disheartened.

Delayed presale code emails and long waitlists have become a recurring problem on Ticketmaster, leaving fans in a state of uncertainty and frustration. This is sadly the case with Olivia Rodrigo presale code email right now.

For those who have encountered the dreaded waitlist, hours of anticipation can end in disappointment. As they may not get access to the best seats or, in some cases, any tickets at all.

No official response

Unfortunately, there has been no official statement from the team as yet. This only further adds to the users’ frustration.

However, there are also some who are taking this situation lightly. Here’s one such humor from a Ticketmaster parody account on X:
