Ratings and Reviews
Decent app… unusable new system
The app is fine, works well, and does what it's supposed to.
The system of picking up and dropping off a bike on any street corner within the S-Bahn ring was fantastic — I used it all the time. Then a few years ago, they changed it to where you are only allowed to take and leave the bikes at one of the limited number of Call-A-Bike stations throughout Berlin. None of the stations are convenient to where I live or where I'm going, and they are often empty (meaning no pick up) or completely full (meaning ride to another station to drop off). I've stopped using the system after the change.
The app doesn’t control the bike well
It is very handy how the app will show you where bikes are located, and the unlock feature works fine; however, the pause and lock features don’t work - on a 3 hour trip I couldn’t unlock once and couldn’t re-lock twice. Despite help from customer service, I was still charged multiple fees for associated with these problems, so the rental cost was more than twice what it should have been, and they won’t refund the extra fees. There are many rental bikes in Munich - I suggest you try to find a brand with better reviews!

Be careful Call A Bike hardly works and overcharges
The pause didn’t work so I was charged 10Euro since the bike had been parked outside of a station area. I tried to rent a few more bikes later in the day and the app failed each time - not consistent. Today (2weeks later), I received a 90Euro bill and I haven’t been in Berlin or Germany for 10days, apparently the meter was still running. Denying them via my credit card and will seek a correction on my account. Horrible experience for something that should be simple and enjoyable. Great idea, epic fail on execution and technology.
