Ratings and reviews

Having travelled to 47 countries I can say this is the worst public transport ticketing system I have ever seen. The timing of the trams is worst than Google maps. When you top up via card it does always work. Go into talk to someone (at their few and far between customer service desks), they refer you to call them. Call them register for reimbursement, email though bank details to them showing payment, they email back saying they don't have enough information. A complete waste of time.

Don't waste your downloads. Can't accurately provide any useful info. Bus tracking for buses with GPS linked to the app are so unreliable that the bus can be shown as leaving a stop only for it to show up 10 minutes later. Trains show up as on time when there's works happening and stations are closed. No ability to show rail replacement buses. You'd be much better served by having an argument with train station staff, asking them to do the bare minimum of their jobs and providing a timetable

It's a good app. I use public transport every day and it works well for me. I have notifications turned off for almost all my apps so can't comment on how well they work but for figuring out if I need to run to the tram or where is the best place to change it's easy to use. I like being able to set all my frequent stops and routes as favourites that are easy to access on the homepage
