### 2/5 — Be careful of wrong billing and financial loss

*2026-08-10*

We rented 2 bike with hello ride. We have completed the ride at 2:04pm but the app has charged us until 2:16pm for 2 bikes. Despite us trying to appeal the cost through different channels, their CS said they will not refund us the extra charge and instead offer us a free ride… this feels like a forced transaction to me. Just watch your bill if you want to try this.

### 2/5 — Absolute Scam.

*2026-06-25, version 1.49.0*

Never used before.  Tried to park in incorrect zone.  Bike locked and wouldn’t unlock so I could move it so the only option was to pay a fine.  Refused to refund me.  We also used Anywheel which allowed the unlock and repark function.  Do not recommend

### 1/5 — Next to useless

*2025-12-31, version 1.44.0*

Sydney bikes are almost all out of power or vandalised/damaged or low on power if bookable. Zero customer service too

### 2/5 — Not Transparent payment information

*2025-12-31*

HelloRide is convenient, but the pricing is misleading. The app gives the impression that rides cost about S$1 per hour, however when you actually use it, the total comes to almost S$4 per hour. The rate breakdown is not clear enough, and users only realize the true cost after being charged. Please be more transparent with pricing.

### 1/5 — Terrible compared to lime and Ario

*2025-11-16*

In order to pay a $4 bill you gotta have $14 in your account because they hold $10 hostage. 
Go to Ario or lime instead, with them you can start for $1 and if you don’t have enough to pay the bill you can pay in a later date. They’re 100% better than these spoilt thieves.

### 1/5 — App parking error in seletar

*2025-10-30*

Have contacted customer service but never reply back and having this issue for one month already have to submit appeal every single ride which is so troublesome if cannot fix then i want refund

### 1/5 — In-app 3rd party ads

*2025-10-23, version 1.44.0*

Ewwww - In-app 3rd party ads

### 1/5 — 诱导下载，设置歧视价格。买了套餐还要额外付费

*2025-10-12*

Inducing downloads and setting discriminatory prices. Extra charges even after purchasing a package.
诱导下载，设置歧视价格。买了套餐还要额外付费

### 1/5 — Inaccessible return locations so they can fine you

*2025-09-28*

Signed up for a week pass, and went riding across Singapore. The return location was reporting in the middle of an intersection, so I parked the bike safely under cover as near as I could safely get… and they charged me almost as much as my weekly pass as a fine for “indiscriminate” parking. Use another bike app.

### 1/5 — Email authorisation

*2025-09-19*

No sense in authorization via email. It always redirects to the login page using the phone number

### 1/5 — Rules not clear, support not effective and take money

*2025-09-14*

I have surely packed and scanned packing QR then purchased again $5 even I bought hellopass. I properly end my trip.
Why still charged a relocation fee? No need packaging A to A, I take A parking and end Parking B.

 I properly end  trip.
Why still charged a relocation fee?

### 1/5 — Charged an extra $15 for now reason

*2025-08-17, version 1.43.0*

As the title says. An extra $15 charged for no reason.

### 1/5 — Force to download the app because accidentally bought a coupon in Alipay

*2025-08-07*

No bike is usable. Totally waste of time.

### 1/5 — Awful customer support and awful ride

*2025-07-28*

Worst experience ever. Charged me $9 for 15 mins whilst advertising $1 for 30 mins. The ride was trash. Complete weak and I chose a 100% charged bike. Speaking to customer service is even worse. They intentionally give misleading responses to make u go away. Very bad image for Chinese developed apps. I’m disappointed

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2025-07-16*

The app was very disappointing. Unfortunately, you have to wait up to 24 hours for a response from support. Even when they reply a few hours after your message, they quickly close the chat without waiting for your answer. On top of that, almost all the bikes without helmets are broken — the handlebars or something else is wrong with them. Some bikes can be activated but then can’t be deactivated, and that wastes your paid minutes.

### 3/5 — Sign up 불가능

*2025-07-06*

Sign up할 방법이 없습니다. 일단 이메일로 시도해보면, 이메일 주소를 제대로 적었음에도 불구하고 verification code 가 안 와요. 그리고 핸드폰으로 시도해도, 제가 싱가폴 번호를 안 써서 그런지 “Too many request” 에러 메시지가 뜹니다.
저는 그래서 그냥 Anywheel 썼어요. 한국인 분들 참고하세요.

### 1/5 — Don’t use it not trustable

*2025-07-05*

It charged us not even turn on when i try to end the trip it shows it’s not in the parking zone while I didn’t move it, try to call customer service not answering at all, and end u charged 20$ extra to leave it on that place 😡😡😡 so disappointed.

### 4/5 — Finally a second bike share for Hong Kong

*2025-07-01*

1. The quality of the bikes are superb! Particularly the suspension and tire traction. For so many years we at Hong Kong have to contend with old squeaky bikes when the Chinese mainland have upgraded 2 generations 
2. I lovvvvve the app. It does what it’s supposed to do, locks and unlocks in seconds, reliable connection no stupid ad, or “confirm to return”, and the bike location is accurate

Now the improvements:
1.I wish you have more bikes so I can uninstall locoride for good. Until then please have a reserve bike function. 
2. Please support apple pay 
3. The parking location detection can be too sensitive. So if you park outside the gate of your estate if might still trigger the alarm.

### 1/5 — Bikes for very short people. Do not use if you’re over 150cm

*2025-06-20*

When I saw the 180 on the seat post I assumed that was the maximum height of the rider. I’m only 178cm tall so that seemed fine. How wrong I was!
 These bikes are basically torture devices and are not meant for people to ride.

### 1/5 — Remove Auto renewal

*2026-06-06*

Hi team 
I noticed that money was deducted from my account due to an auto-renewal subscription. I was not aware that the subscription would renew automatically. Please review this charge and provide clarification on the renewal process. I would also appreciate clearer notifications before future renewals. Thank you.

“Money was deducted from my account due to auto-renewal without my knowledge. Please review this charge and improve renewal notifications to users.”

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-01, version 1.47.0*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — 買完pass 用唔到

*2026-05-09*

垃圾app, 收費唔透明， pass 比完錢用唔到， 冇得退

### 1/5 — Don’t bother using

*2026-04-09*

The bikes are bad quality. One of my boyfriend’s brakes did not work. There are no helmets. The chain was loose on mine. The app however is the worst thing. It does not show you where you can park, and it locks you out of moving the bike (eg locks the bike) so you can’t move it anywhere in an attempt to park it in the right spot, meaning you’re guaranteed to get a relocation fee. Don’t bother with this app.

### 1/5 — Relocation Fee

*2026-04-02*

Parked at the bicycle parking lot, the QR Code is no way to be find. Take a photo and submit for appeal, charged you extra 5$. Good user will straight away know this is a part of strategies to earn your money and you won’t fall for second time. I can just ignoring it without paying but this will create a chance for them to improve. So as a responsible user, I’m here to remind every user to use this with your own risk!! Mood changer app.

### 1/5 — Trash app

*2026-03-29, version 1.45.0*

Would pick 0/5 if possible. Where to begin…

- irritating popup warnings -check 
- 3rd party adverts - check 
- fraudulent bike return fines - check
- issues with payments - check
- poor gps - check 
- false bike locations on map - check
- map not keeping up with location - check 
- feedback ignored - check
- can’t submit bike faults without photo, even when photo adds no value - check 
- poor interface - check 
- long loading screens - check

This is just the app - the bikes themselves have a 3/5 chance of being faulty, dangerous, completely unrideable, not unlockable or not lockable. This app and service needs urgent and wholesale changes asap.

### 1/5 — Parking GPS rarely works

*2026-03-17*

I always park in the designated area and scan the parking code. The app usually says that the bike is not in a designated parking area and charges me a $5.50 convenience fee.

### 1/5 — Random fines for no reason. Avoid this scam app

*2026-02-18, version 1.44.0*

Random fines for no reason. Avoid this scam app

### 1/5 — complete utter waste of time

*2026-02-06, version 1.44.0*

the app doesnt tell you if a location has bikes that are unavailable for use wasted time and money at a location that bikes but non available

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2026-01-02, version 1.44.0*

I payed 6 bucks and it wouldn’t even work and they not giving me my money back don’t spend any money on this it’s really bad. Please give me my money back

### 5/5 — Use it in Kuala Lumpar

*2026-04-15*

I used this for the few days I stayed in Kuala Lumpur 

Easy to ride, goes fast without much pedalling. Relatively cheap and fun, you see so much just looking around riding. 1RM to unlock, 0.35RM per minute of use. Would use again!

### 5/5 — 싱가폴 여행 중이시라면 꼭!

*2025-06-14*
