Ratings and reviews

After months of using the app it's completely become unusable on my phone it doesn't load anything I just get a white screen. I've tried clearing both the data and the cache folders, Checked for updates, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the app multiple times. I rely on the busses to get home from work and have been having to waste more money using Lyft and Uber to get home.

Major issue where if you purchase via credit or debit card and you are on a slow data connection, the app will charge you for the ticket, but you will never receive the actual bus pass due to the app timing out. 1st time the issue was fixed, 2nd time I got no response to my email about the issue. I don't understand how if my data connection is good enough to stream music, it's not good enough to receive an Authentication handshake confirming a successful payment @ .25mb at the most. Disappointed

App stopped working. When I click on the app, A white screen with a red rabbit pops up that says "ahhhh! Something went wrong". Tried restarting my phone, checking for updates on the app and my phone, even uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Now when I click on it, the same rabbit screen appears and it doesn't let me sign on. This app is my lifeline cause I take the bus almost daily. Tried emailing company but received no response yet
