User reviews

Good but …….

Good but doesn’t explicitly detail what time period is 24 hours

Mrs

Tried to get another ticket just kept saying pending very slow and left me thinking what I should it was pending in my bank also

Ticket didn’t work

Just wasted my money as the ticket does not work it won’t read it. So I have had to get alternative transport after wasting my money on this useless service

Very complicated

Bank to app interface is hard to navigate

Doesn’t work for train from Schiphol

I wish I had known that the train from the airport into Centraal was not part of the GVB system, even though it comes up on the route planner. The filter for GVB only is not intuitive to find in the app. I wasted €10 for 24 transit that I didn’t actually need, on top of the train tickets I then had to purchase. Not a great welcome to travellers.
