Looks like the issue is that you purchased General Admission tickets and are trying to exchange them for General Admission -Accessible tickets which don’t really exist. General Admission tickets just mean you have a ticket for the open floor, you don’t have a seat, they’re already accessible.
Not sure what venue you’re looking at but unless you want to sit in the balcony then you should be fine with your regular tickets.

There is a chance I could’ve shown up to the venue on my scooter and they would have guided me to that section anyway, but I didn’t want to take any chances.

Anecdotal evidence but we’ve showed up to shows with GA tickets and newly obtained injuries and got accommodated by the crew. Only if it’s packed to balls they would probably have issues prioritizing who gets the seats

How sure are you that “GA” and “GA Wheelchair Accessible” are different things?
From the map, the list and my experience I think that the venue is saying that their GA is wheelchair accessible, not that they have a separate wheelchair accessible GA location.

Most of the time larger venues like this will have a separate roped off area with chairs for an ADA section of sorts. Sometimes it’s nothing, but I’ve only noticed that at smaller venues. Another show I went to, you just had to go to the box office and request a wrist band, but those tickets weren’t through Ticketmaster. Was playing it on the safe side for this one since I haven’t been to this venue in a while

Nice, I’d suggest then avoiding this avenue of support and call direct. That was a crazy convo.

General admission except for assigned accessible seating
