I was double charged two days ago and have had to reach out to support multiple times. They haven't been listening as this isn't a pre auth issue. I was charged the pre auth and for two rides at the same time. This overdrafted my account and has now cost me $50 to ride a scooter 1.2 miles in no traffic (the ride total should have been under $8) After being told I was incorrect multiple times, someone looked deeper and found the issue and issues about $10 in ride credits. I need a refund.

Awful experience with this app. If it does bug and close out, you get overcharged for a ride. Went on less than a 2 mile ride and tried to end it. Was in a designated parking area and it wouldn't let me end it. It overcharged me and went on for more than an hour resulting in my funds draining and me having a panic attack. Called the number, couldn't get anyone on the phone to talk to. Ended up having to turn off my bank card. Do not recommend.

I was getting Bird for almost daily for a year. The last 6 months, I could use the remaining balance of a 30 minute ride pass.. for example the remaining 10 minutes to the next ride and then pay for another pass or carry on and charged per minute. I realized today that you stopped this feature without any communication. The feature you took back was actually fair since we are paying a pass for the whole 30 minutes. I deleted my account. Goodbye!
