1. I have an account with Blue Bikes NOLA I've researched further and discovered that cellphones are only offered access to bike networks in their home area.
2. The app often keeps "loading" hubs locations and status, refuses to use a credit card as RFID key, etc, don't have space left here...Unless you're under a free promo you'll end up being charged a lot of money to use rickety bikes with useless technology attached to them.
3. I got an almost $500 charge to my account, and I can't reach anyone to dispute this.Rubbish. I'm in New Orleans but wants me to select a bike network from a list of networks in ENGLAND.
4. I've found a few days times I've reserved a bike, the bikes don't work or connect and I lose the deposit fee.
5. The error was:, "Can't unlock a bike, couldn't find vehicle", *as* I am scanning the QR code *ON AN AVAILABLE VEHICLE*.
6. The app glitched and said I was riding the bike for 73 hours, and at the end time was March 31st.
7. At the time I'm writing this it's March 30th, and I stopped right in the bike March 28th.
8. Good account info, bike locations, etc.
9. After 15 mins spent trying to unlock multiple bikes that all have horrendous input lag yet require a lot of inputs and you to read ToC I gave up.
10. The "find me" option on the bottom right that looks like a target doesn't do anything 90% of the time...Before arriving in Brighton I thought I could rely on this cycle network to get around.
11. I didn't realize I had to use the app to rent a bike, but I signed up and provided payment information.
