KVB-App Customer Insights

1. Now I was able to purchase a ticket via a ticketmachine since I had some time but if anybody is in a hurry it's difficult to explain to the conductor why a valid ticket can't be produced since your app doesn't seem to work.

2. Looking forward to your reply!Almost useless app... Keep logout, and login only trough web browser makes it work very slowTerrible app, I can't finish purchasing a ticket.

3. And guys, the English translation is a joke, right? Edit: I opened the app recently and it billed me twice for the ticket I couldn't pay earlier.

4. Bought a ticket (selecting the journey from the app) to the airport and on top of the almost 8 euro the driver asked me to pay another 4.

5. And of course, I have to retype my payment method's details again on every purchase.No surprise that an app from such a failure of a company would be so poorly designed.

6. Edit: It works fine now.Hello! I tried purchasing a ticket 3 times now with no luck.

7. Basically everything but the interface is in German.Extremely poorly made app, it unlogs me quite frequently and when I use the "forgot your password" option, I get sent back to the log in screen.

8. Why on earth would you leave the most important info in German only? Like types of tickets, validity period, etc.

9. Better use another one.Normally I wouldn't consider speed a relevant criteria for a ticket app.

10. I am not able to complete my purchase, haven't received a receipt and fortunately my card had been charged either.

11. Almost every tap starts a waiting time of ten to twenty seconds while the app seems to fetch some data.
