No apple pay and no automatic recognition of credit card

The app is nice and easy but would be great to have two preferred credit card (one business and one personal) and/or have apple pay as payment method.
Also the credit card form is not recognised as such so you cannot use the stored cards on iphone. You have to input manually

Software bugs

If the card payment is not accepted on the first try, e.g. because of a security check, and then we try to book the same route, same name, your app says we already booked that ticket and won’t let us book it

Italo

Easy to use very comfortable economy seats

Annoying

I have purchased a few trips with this train company. My setting is in English language but still I get notifications in Italian. Hello???

Charges my credit card 12 times and didn’t issue the ticket!

See above

Get economy NOT business class

Visiting Italy I was so excited to ride the high speed train & get all the perks listed for business or “premier” class. It was a waste of money, unfortunately. I got 1 snack & 1 tiny cup of black coffee w/ no sugar or creamer offered. After that the lady that served us disappeared the rest of the ride. The bathrooms were a bit dirty. There was trash (cups) on the seats from the previous train ride. & last but not least there wasn’t any WiFi! I didn’t have a SIM card or phone number (I was a tourist) & Italo would not allow me access to the WiFi. The entire experience was pretty disappointing.

Really dismal

I cannot see previously purchased tickets bought through the app. I’m trying to buy a ticket now and 5 attempts later I’m still waiting for the processing to go through. I only hope I’m not charged for 5 tickets at some stage. Rather don’t have an app than give false hope than this one.

Doesn’t accept Discover credit card

Why it doesn’t accept discover credit card?

Delay compensation cannot be claimed through app

Don’t waste your time and money on Italo! Use trenitalia instead. One of my Italo trains were delayed for 3 hours. I was hoping to file a claim for delay compensation, but the process is confusing, lengthy, and cannot be done on the app. It was so easy with Trenitalia! I will not use Italo again next time I visit Italy.
