Ratings and reviews

This app used to be good but it is now broken. The QR code is 3mm^2 and unscalable so cannot be scanned. This issue happened before, was fixed and now it's back. The other main gripe I have is more policy. When you purchased a 7 day ticket previously you actually got a full 7 days, now it cuts off at 3am on the 7th day of activation so it's really a 6½ day pass. Additionally the £1 saving for using the app is gone so there's no reason to opt for the app over paying the driver any more. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Brilliant app. It is very convenient, and the different options for tickets and passes are superb. The last time I had the app, they only did the day and 3 day passes. I'm glad they now do a 7 day ticket as we go to blackpool for a week. Saves us petrol and parking. Blackpool has improved so much over the years regardless of all the negative critique it still gets. I would recommend to anybody to go and explore cleveleys, thornton, Bispham, Fleetwood, blackpool and st annes.

Used the trams and buses in May for a 4 day break, found them reliable, comfortable and clean. Staff were pleasant on all my journeys and polite even when it was busy.I journeyed the entire length of the route over my days in Blackpool from Fleetwood to Star Gate. Plenty of legroom as well as I am over 6 ft. Will be getting another 7 day pass in June .
