## nextbike Reviews in United States

### *---- "Can’t receive access code with US number"
In order to log in, they make you do 2-factor (at least when I try, in Germany). However, the code doesn’t go through to US numbers. Via email they said they know about this issue (why don’t they fix it) and to call, but it is a German number so if you don’t have international calling tough luck.
-- Phil 831, 2025-11-13

### ***-- "+1 numbers require phone call to set up"
They could get a five star review from me if they would simply put the text in the registration process that non-European phones require customer service assistance to register.
-- dddlev, 2025-10-23

### *---- "Zero help getting registered"
I have been trying for a month to get the app set up so I can rent a bike. It will not give me a confirmation text, which is the first and only way to get set up. I have contacted support three separate times and have received no response. It doesn’t do much good to have a bike share program if it can’t be used.
-- elliotian, 2025-10-16

### **--- "Too difficult to change cities"
Many of the reviews on here seem to confuse the app, with the bike operating companies. This is about the actual app.

That said, I’m leaving a poor review, because I am a frequent traveler, and it is insanely difficult to change cities within the app. Despite the fact that the app services many many cities, it requires deleting the entire app and then reloading it to change cities, or even to change providers within a single city. This is a deal killing oversight.
-- lairdb review nick, 2025-10-13

### **--- "Stuck -  did not receive activation code"
I cannot use the bike offerings in my home town at all. I have a U.S. cell phone number but not did not receive the activation code despite multiple tries and verifying I had the right number, which means I’m entirely stuck. You need to sign up to contact support.
-- robinder, 2025-09-20

### **--- "SO Frustrating"
The app seems sophisticated but it’s guaranteed to frustrate.  It allows you to return bikes in penalty zones and only informs you after the fact.  It allows you to reserve bikes that turn out to be unavailable.  I deleted it after one day.
-- TheRandyManCanCan, 2025-09-11

### *---- "Can’t even register"
Requires a text confirmation code and they can’t even get me signed in- bad interface!
-- carlrunner, 2025-09-05

### *---- "Doesn’t work for American phone numbers no pin is sent"
Smh
-- FixyourappBoyo, 2025-08-27

### *---- "Vorsicht ABZOCKE!"
Wer Nextbike in Wien verwendet sei gewarnt: Auch wenn auf der Karte Dutzende Fahrräder angezeigt sind die sich außerhalb einer physischen Rückgabestation befinden - die man auch ohne Probleme ausleihen kann - ist das ohne Hinweis einfach auf Strafzahlung verboten und Nextbike bucht einem ohne Vorwarnung €20 ab. Steht das irgendwo in der App? NEIN. Es steht ganz klein am Fahrrad, aber man wird nicht gewarnt, dass dies kein normales Verhalten ist, obwohl in der App überall Fahrräder außerhalb physischer Rückgabestationen angezeigt werden.
-- shirokanedai, 2025-08-26

### *---- "Rude customer service"
This was one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had. I came to Germany from the United States and tried to use Nextbike, only to find out the app does not send verification codes to U.S. phone numbers. I had to call support just to get started. The first agent gave me a code that worked in the browser so I could pay the €1 verification fee, but that same code did not work in the app.

I called back a second time to explain this. Before I could even finish my sentence, the agent cut me off with “ja, my colleague just gave you a verification code.” When I tried to continue, he actually said “are you going to let me finish?” Imagine that. I am the paying customer trying to rent a bike, and I had to remind him, “I am the one trying to rent from you, how about you listen to me.” That level of rudeness is unacceptable anywhere, let alone from a company claiming to provide international service.

In the United States if any support rep spoke to me that way, I would hang up and immediately use a competitor. That is how capitalism works. Companies that treat people like this do not keep customers. Unfortunately here Nextbike has the monopoly, and what I got was arrogance, dismissal, and wasted time instead of simple help.

The problem was finally fixed when the agent gave me the correct code for the app, which is exactly what I had asked for at the start. All of this frustration could have been avoided if someone had just listened instead of cutting me off and talking over me.

Nextbike should be embarrassed by how its customer service treats people. If this is how international visitors are handled, it reflects terribly on the company as a whole.

### *---- "Do not accept a saudi number ?????"
I have saudi number and cannot rent bike because of it 
Just not too cool
-- jetangell, 2025-08-21

### *---- "Can't use"
In order to rent a bike, I need an app. Sure. In order to use that app I need a phone number (I'm traveling, but yes, I have that too). However, I type in the phone number and never get a message with the necessary code. I tried to register an account on the website instead, and now it says that my phone number is already registered. 

So I still can't login on the app to get a bike. I tried someone else's phone number as well (to see if it needed a local number) and also did not work. So something is wrong with the function of sending the code. I have now spent more time trying to figure this out than it would have taken to walk to my destination.
-- Where.is.lisa, 2025-08-20

### *---- "The app doesn’t send pins"
I tried multiple working numbers, and the app doesn’t send any pins. Maybe it’s just US numbers? It’s useless either way.
-- Idiskskdnkdksjd, 2025-08-13

### *---- "Cant log in"
Doesnt send mobile pin 🤷‍♂️
-- __jdsd135, 2025-08-09

### ***-- "Needs an update"
When you try to end your ride the app dosnt show you your location and then expects you to try to park it in certain zones you have no idea where they are because you can’t see your location and then CHARGES you an extra fee, scammy practice.
-- stanghill_12, 2025-08-05

### ***** "Well designed app"
Thoughtful minimal functional design in bike and app
-- nkaschacm, 2025-07-26

### *---- "App won’t open!"
We tried to use nextbike to rent bikes in Vienna using our iphones. My husband and I downloaded the app but it won’t even open. It shows an error message that says, “That didn’t go as planned. Please try again.” Well, we did try over and over again to no avail because the app won’t even open for either of us. Bummer!
-- Alymicfern, 2025-07-21

### *---- "Cannot sign up in kosovo"
sms verification doesn’t come through
-- imeriarb, 2025-07-16

### *---- "Won’t send Pin"
App wouldn’t send pin even after a dozen attempts. Just provide an alternative way to create an account! Bummer to see such a broken and limited system.
-- Kevin Beerman, 2025-07-13

### *---- "Cities - Select a Different App for this Please"
Doesn’t work with American numbers?? Kinda crazy considering the number for American tourists in Europe. Plus this is a know problem if you Google it. Cities that adopt this platform are losing out on ride share opportunities. Customer service said they’d send a confirmation code. Never did. Avoid this garbage software if you can.
