Ratings and reviews

DO NOT buy bus passes via this app. They will defraud you, steal your money, and refuse to issue a refund. The app has a strict limit on device transfers. This sounds fine in theory. However I had to reset my device recently and was permanently locked from my account and the money I'd spent for transferring the app. It never changed devices. I've only ever used this app on the same exact phone each and every time.

The app is easy to use. That said it's absolutely ridiculous that a ticket that I've purchased would only be available to use for 30 days! So if I plan ahead and then don't use them PAT just takes my money and no ride. And I have to buy individual tickets, can't just load up my card and then have them take the fare off the balance.

Unable to login at all. I've tried changing my password several times but even that doesn't work; it just keeps throwing up the same error message "invalid username/password". Well the username sure as heck is correct...you're sending the reset passwords to my email after all.
