Ratings and reviews

Just recycled my first 10 bottles and the app did not register any of them. My profile information is lost, including my name, and when I press "edit profile" to input my details again, it just perpetually loads. The idea is great, but the app needs A LOT of work, cause these kinds of glitches can deter people from continuing to recycle. Hope this gets fixed soon. UPDATE I deleted & reinstalled the app. When I logged back in, it successfully retrieved my profile & accurately logged my recycling.

The idea was great because I end up having a lot of glass bottles to recycle every few weeks. My first few deposits went without problems. Two days ago, I went for my largest deposit (4 boxes of glass bottles). I made the deposit, only to find that I wasn't credited for all that material. Customer service is fictitious, I couldn't log my query. Not using this app again, considering it uninstalled. I'd rather take my recyclables to the township where people can use them for discounts.

Love the initiative. Please add to the app an option to invite and add friends, that way you can challenge friends to see who recycles more. And an option to save favourite products that you use often, to help remind you which of your products to recycle. Also, if we can suggest a location for a RVM that would be great. One closer to Meyerton/Vereeniging area will be awesome. Lastly, somewhere we can recycle paper, carton, newspaper, etc? Thanx
