BVG Fahrinfo Customer Insights

1. One annoyance is I think to show my ticket I must back away from my trip, and if I am in the middle of my journey, then I must search for a future one that is equivalent.The time table shows on the app always different than the real.

2. It can save you alot of time as Google maps do not show trip cancellation in real time.Your mobile app product team should be shamed.

3. I often want to look up at which station I have to change (and on which platform I have to go for the connection, etc.) while I'm on a bus or train already, and it's always gone and I have to repeat the search, which then shows different results because it's a later time.

4. App set to English, and most interfaces display in English - but all ticket info is displayed in Deutsch?!Sarcasm alert! Great to find out if your bus is 20, 40 or more minutes overdue.

5. The app could be very useful but quite bugged, real time updates of where is my vehicle now are happening too rare that often it shows that it's arriving but actually it's 3 min late or the other way round.

6. The basic functionality works well, but it is very frustrating that the found routes in the Trip Planner always disappear when the app is closed for a while or when displaying a ticket.

7. Very bad service quality, totally waste of time.The app allows you to forecast your trips due to any delays or reroute due to cancellations.

8. Google Pay option only available when purchasing tickets - cannot set it as default or get any indication it will work in "payment options".

9. Without their function it's hard to find addresses and some of building numbers are missing, would be much easier if those 2 would be integrated and you can switch with 1 click from one to other.

10. 7) Not possible to activate multiple tickets for m8s.App lags when purchasing a ticket.

11. Bus service is a mess in this town! Buses keep getting announced for half an hour at the stops and never arrive.
