Ratings and reviews

Unable to renew my U-Abo. No matter what, removing the app and reinstalling, your app is unable to connect to the server! Your personals at the front disk are unable to solve the problem. Please spend some of the cash you collect from your clients on some qualified programmers to solve the trouble! What's use to advertise for a U-Abo that you are unable to maintain or undate!? Sick and tired of your service.

I got thiswhen it first came out. I can count the number of times it worked on 1 hand and I haven't even used up all of my fingers yet. Jan 2019 until now this didn't display my subscription but told me valid ticket data exists every time I tried to purchase a new one. I've since spent CHF 172 on tickets to work and back. Today this app decided to function, turns out my subscription is valid until Feb 20th and I've spent almost 200 bucks on an excuse so I don't get fined for not having a ticket.

Since a few days I get a "cannot connect to server" when trying to renew my abo. I tried cleaning data, cleaning cache, uninstalling/reinstalling, nothing is working, tried different wifi, 4G internet, etc, nothing worked. Since uninstalling I get this error on the login page with the phone number.
