⚠️ Warning! Fraudulent organisation ⚠️ the app charged me 44 euro for riding 2.2 km for 2 bicycles
★★★★ Rob Hammond 7/2/2026 v3.271.1
caution this scamming company loves to over charge ur bank card whenever it feels like it even when u have a prepaid pass and time remaining they will still automatically charge your card for your ride without compensation you at all they continuesly tax ur bank cards and make the lamest of excuses for why they do it from policy to renewing a subscription that ain't even expired yet.. you pay for a service you don't even get and this why they are now being sued for fraudulent business practices

★★★★ Akhil John 7/1/2026 v3.271.1
This app has been increasingly frustrating. One day the app automatically logged me out, today I keep getting an error message which does not show me where the bikes are nor does it let me start a ride. the update has caused this app to degrade. Additionally, the bikes sometimes trigger no go zones when I am clearly within the correct go zone. Their prices are not competitive and are higher than Dott. I'm a loyal user of lime but the issues with the app has been a deteriorating experience!
★★★★ T a 7/1/2026 v3.270.1
Charges you for rides that you didn't even use and will not refund your money , lime sucks.
★★★★ Khaled Al-Ibrahim 7/1/2026 v3.270.1
Way overpriced! I was charged $1.49 for only 00:34 seconds only, absolutely excessive!!
★★★★ Jay Harris 6/30/2026 v3.256.0
changed the time you can have and cost more. apparently money is more important than customers.
★★★★ Michael Spirk 6/30/2026 v3.270.1
There has been an unneccessary feature added that takes half the screen and can't be hidden. This is outright disrespectful UX design.
★★★★ Brian Fahrendorf 6/30/2026
don't get this app use anyone else. installed while I was in Sydney not knowing once installed they block you from canceling the account and keep trying to charge me. I used it once paid canceling afterwards cause it sucked!!!! now they spam me about adding a new payment method 1 or 2 times daily this has been going on for a few weeks now.
★★★★ Stephan Nerger 6/29/2026 v3.269.6
Would Be a 5 Star But My Lime Access Rental Rate Did not apply for 2 of my Trips, While the rate issue is resolved, I still have not been compensated for the 2 trips I was overcharged and did not expect or budget for since I've had the same rate forever it seems, the 2 trips are almost quadruple my normal lime fee that I pay and have recieved no help despite putting in a help request on the 2 trips. sigh otherwise love the programs they offer and for the most part the availability of limes.
★★★★ Jacob Lyu 6/29/2026 v3.270.1
Ok right up until you need help with something. Then they are worthless.
★★★★ Matthew Daves 6/29/2026 v3.270.1
Customer service is non existent - auto refund or they just don't know whats up. when you must communicate w/ 'em, the outsourced peoples only have scripts to read you. Absolute garbage, even tho they have an excellent service - absolute garbage on following through.
★★★★ Shawn Perry 6/29/2026 v3.270.1
I tried giving lime one more chance and I get on it to go to an appointment I get like six blocks away and literally everything of six blocks around from my area is in a red zone so now I have to use Lyft well lime sucks I don't see how the whole city is in a red zone but six blocks
★★★★ Glenn Reed (Glenno) 6/29/2026 v3.269.6
I have had the worst experience with Lime and I don't think I will ever be using it again. I thought it would help me out when I was stranded last night 7 miles from home and 5 hours until the buses were running again. The map feature is so terrible I was unable to locate the scooter for almost an hour and then it was a block from where I was at the start of my search. I started off towards home and then I was stopped by the app from a no go zone. I was going on the frontage road that the bus ro
★★★★ Felicity Muffin 6/29/2026 v3.252.0
they refuse to give me a price adjustment on a ride they overcharged me for! it is to a locate that I commute to daily and the price never exceeds 5 USD! and they charged me 19 bucks for it! they will gladly steal your money and not respond your numerous support request given in attempts to resolve in good faith. terrible!
★★★★ Grey Cipher 6/29/2026
I drive 0.3 miles and got the total was $3 and some change. I check my bank account and they charged $14. people if they charge you for more than what your end trip total was after locking up the shower just file a dispute with your bank. An proof will be screenshot of your charged total of end of trip.
★★★★ vincent chu 6/28/2026
randomly locked out of my account, told to email customer support but customer support never replys
★★★★ Kamai Rodney 6/28/2026 v3.270.1
never any bikes anymore and finding parking is a myth it makes the whole journey unnecessarily long
★★★★ Tony Sottile 6/28/2026 v3.270.1
says it's one price then doubles it
★★★★ Alton 6/27/2026 v3.270.1
Beware of the Hackney resident promotion! Even when the promotion is ticked in the wallet section of the app, it will not always work. You will only get refunded for the difference sometimes when you contact the Lime team and the standard fee is very expensive. The last time I reached out to the support team I was denied a refund despite being overcharged. The promotion should just work like the passes in that you pay £1.75 for a 25-minute pass whenever you need to in Hackney.
★★★★ B Jac 6/27/2026 v3.269.6
app logged me out. was difficult to log back in correctly. was overcharged. customer service refused to help me.
★★★★ David Hellard 6/26/2026 v3.270.1
they've hidden the ability to buy credits in advance, they're immoral, I'll have to ensure I get my value by costing them in repairs. I sugguest you do the same
★★★★ Corey Herron 6/26/2026 v3.270.1
damn thing died on me had to walk all the way home
★★★★ AceItX 6/26/2026 v3.270.1
garbage, I tried ending the ride now it doesnt let me and tskes my money. seriously this is a damaging bug and nothing being done. I want my money back for the time spend in this incoherent mess
★★★★★ Sara Ventura 7/4/2026 v3.271.1

★★★★★ Georgian Romeo Coman 7/3/2026 v3.269.6
prețul a crescut cu 1 treime in câteva luni, de la 0.8lei/min la 1.1 lei/min. Aplicația e ok, insa fiind parte a aceluiași mecanism care jecmănește oamenii, dau doar 2 stelute
★★★★★ K Gf 6/30/2026 v3.270.1
very expensive for what it is... next time I would just get an uber
★★★★★ George C 6/28/2026 v3.269.6
too expensive
★★★★★ Marko Radovic 6/27/2026 v3.270.1
overall useful, but also super misleading in terms of a blue zone - where you can drive, and a blue dot - where you caneave the bike. also I got routed through more than 1km long red area -forbidden bike ride - to leave the bike
