RIPTA Wave Customer Insights

1. No longer able to log in on the app, and cant get a physical copy of the digital cards i have.So for a long while this app was working perfectly but recently, in the last few weeks, my Virtual Card hasn't been loading and along those lines, my physical Wave Card also has been being read as having insufficient funds despite having enough in both passes.

2. I'm not in Providence often, so it's not a pressing issue, but I should imagine others have felt this frustration...?Not being able to delete a digital card is an issue especially when there arent physical cards in the first place.

3. Such an awesome app has just been not functional lately.This RIPTA wave business app is undependable because when you go to scan the bus it does not have the square reader and the developers haven't fixed this problem.

4. There are a few minor differences to how fares work as well, but that's more to do with RIPTA than the app( 1 hour transfers is a joke!!).i imagine those less technologically inclined might have trouble setting it up, but once you've got it ready it is quite a nice convenience.Previous version of this app was so much better.

5. The Virtual Card told me that there's a server error when I waited long enough the other day, but it's been a good couple weeks now and I'd like for this to be resolved.

6. Better off getting a wave card to travel with RIPTA.

7. considering the lack of physical WAVE cards: it feels cumbersome to not fix these prevalent issues.

8. Instead of keeping the old system that worked, RIPTA has you have to waste money on a day or monthly pass.

9. And if you hit reset password you get an email with no way to reset your password.It's a bit frustrating that, if one has a dollar on their app and needs to add three to make a round trip, the minimum add is FIVE dollars.

10. I shouldn't have to pay extra due to their drivers work ethic.i wanna give this stars, yet don't wanna bother with doing so.

11. but as of recently: this app has given me problems with specifically me making payments or adding my card inside the app.
