Terrible

Never going to bother using this app. Look at every review from the past 2 years .

Stole money from me :(

If you mess up taking a photo of a scooter, it’s a $30 charge. You will not be refunded. There is no feature to go back to take the picture, so if you accidentally took one like I did, they take $30 from you. It’s ridiculous, and their employees, like Gustavo, are so rude and passive aggressive. When I tried to reach out my concern, Gustavo ended the chat immediately. I am a college student, so I can’t afford $30 when I mess up a photo.

Also, the app isn’t very safe at all. Use PayPal to avoid getting your information stolen. This happened to me in the past, where $100+ was stolen from me, and Lyft basically said “too bad.” Thankfully I was able to get this issue resolved with my bank.

Terrible app and terrible service. Please safe yourself the money and download Uber. There are many other apps out there which are one hundred times better than this one. I had the student discount (where you go through the tedious and lengthy process of proving you’re a student— not worth it), so I didn’t feel like switching to another app like Uber until now.

Save yourself the money! Skip this app!

Misleading

App looks slick, but the language around pricing is wildly misleading. Don’t fall into the trap. Random server at a local restaurant said “my boyfriend also fell for that scam.”

You lost a customer - and it sounds like more than just me.

Awful

Horrible experience you the bikes are super slow and heavy it says you can put them anywhere but you actually need to find another docking port and usually they are
Full I had to ride
Back to where I came from after all a piece of crap

False Info

App says there are available bikes but they wouldn’t unlock due to some other issue. I wouldn’t trust going to a bike station again. Much easier experience renting bikes in literally every other city I’ve been in.
