### 5/5 — Bester Anbieter bis jetzt

*2026-08-20*

Mit dott einfach total zufrieden bisher. Ja dezent teurer teilweise, teilweise aber auch gute Aktionen / Pässe. Vom Fahrgefühl bisher einfach am besten. Ich bin sehr zufrieden :) hatte bisher auch noch nie eine überbuchung oder sonstige finanzielle Probleme via App. Nur einmal als die sich aufging und ich das Fahrzeug nicht abmelden konnte, trotz Verzögerung wurde aber korrekt abgerechnet. Damit hatte ich nicht gerechnet. Fahre schon echt lange mit Dott und bin immernoch Fan. Leider in Frankfurt sehr wenig vertreten. In Wiesbaden dafür top und fast überall zu finden. 

Vielen Dank! Ich fahre weiter mit euch :)

### 2/5 — Bad experience

*2026-08-18, version 2.183.0*

People leave them in unmarked parking spots, when you unlock the bike not knowing someone left it there you get fined and have to spend your time moving it to a registered parking spot to end the ride. Logistically stupid.

### 3/5 — Fun Times. Time to delete now.

*2026-08-17, version 2.182.0*

I used to use these dott bikes heavily back in the day. Fun times. Decent prices compared to Lime. 
They've now pulled out of the UK market, yet this app keeps sending notifications every other about free minutes or something else. But how can i take advantage?? Time to delete now, thanks for the fun.

### 3/5 — No title

*2026-08-17, version 2.182.0*

Convenient but very expensive

### 5/5 — T6 travellers

*2026-08-15, version 2.182.0*

Great way to get around gent

### 5/5 — Bike hire

*2026-08-09, version 2.181.0*

Great fun

### 1/5 — waste of money and time

*2026-08-08*

I scanned one of their bikes, the bike didnt work. I ended the ride within 2 mins and they still deducted my money. now not refunding back. this is scam

### 1/5 — Ridiculous pricing

*2026-08-08, version 2.181.0*

The old Vois, and even when this company was Tier wasn't too bad. But I got a short scooter a few of miles yesterday and it cost £7 - uber would've been £9. This same trip used to cost half that on scooters. It's just not worth it any more, costs the same as a taxi

### 1/5 — Vorsicht! 25€ Strafe bei 10 min Inaktivität außerhalb des Parkbereiches

*2026-08-07*

Ich habe den Dott Flex Pass, der mir ermöglicht 30 min für 1,50€ ein Fahrzeug zu benutzen. Ich bin zu einem Sportplatz gefahren, wo es kein Parkbereich gibt, da musste ich etwas abholen, hatte also das Fahrzeug kurz stehen lassen, um damit wieder weiter zufahren und es in einem Parkbereich abzustellen. Da das Fahrzeug nach 10 Minuten Inaktivität ausgeht, und es gleichzeitig außerhalb des Parkbereiches ist, wird mir eine Strafgebühr von 25€ verrechnet, obwohl ich a) damit weiterfahren will und b) ich nichtmal vor habe es hier auf einem Nicht-Parkplatz stehen zu lassen. Da es mein letztes Geld auf dem Konto war, musste ich mir 30€ vorstrecken lassen, damit ich die 25€ Strafe begleichen kann und das Fahrzeug wieder entsperren kann, um es aus dem Bereich zu bringen, wo das Fahrzeug nicht stehen darf. Obwohl es in der App die Meldung gab, dass wenn ich es wieder wegfahre, die 25€ Strafgebühr entfallen würden, und ich auch im Kundencenter angerufen habe, um dies zu bestätigen, blieb ich auf den Kosten sitzen. Ich habe das Fahrzeug in ein gültigen Parkbereich geparkt und mir wurden die Kosten nicht erstattet. Danke für Nichts! 👍🏼

### 1/5 — Way too much info required

*2026-08-07*

Like the title says, why do they need so much information? I put in my license, my first and last name, address, email, turned notifications on, and it still was asking for more. I deleted app and just went to a bike place near me and it was cheaper too. Don’t waste time and sell your information to china.
