Ratings and reviews

the app is good itself, not to hard to use, but a bit slow, plus what i don't really like is, that when you trying to buy a ticket it's unclear what kind of tickets they are, and complicated to understand, about D-Ticket, it's impossible to buy with PayPal, or even with card it gives the error! Please fix it and made the ticket description.ore understandable! Thanks!

As others have pointed out, this is a tourist trap. If you purchase a ticket after the 10th of the month, you’re forced to pay for two tickets, since cancellations are only accepted by the 10th of the previous month, it forcefully renews the next month ticket and there's no way to avoid that. Absolutely ridiculous and disappointing how this customer service is even possible in Europe!

By buying monthly Deutchland ticket, i got automatically subscribed. I withrew the subscription for it to just appear again without my knowlege. 7 days before the month ended new ticket got purchased. I asked for a cancellation and refund and nicely explained what happened, that i dont need a ticket for September and won't use it. I got no cancellation nor refund. Since September didn't even start i personally dont see a reason why it wouldn't get refunded. In my opinion this is a legal robbery
