Great bike but the tires were low & App malfunctioned

I tried to rent two bicycles on my app but it kept saying “error.” I should have been able to rent four at a time but it wouldn’t let me rent even two. So I rented just 1 bike. My partner had to stand on the street and download an app on his phone. This wasted 15 minutes while it downloaded. And then even with his App his bike wouldn’t release. So we walked to the pier to go try other bikes. 30 minutes later he had a bike but I wasted the time just standing around and had to pay for it.

The bikes were filthy and tires flat but we made it work as we wanted to go to the beach.

More Parking/Renting Stations Needed in Zagreb

I love love love biking around any new territory. For me, the absolute Best of both worlds: getting some exercise, while learning the ins and outs of the heartbeats of the cities, pueblo‘s, nooks and crannies of any place I’ve ever lived in or visited.
NextBike is a awesome platform, however it’s Zagreb is not the best bike city, even though 100s bike everywhere everyday. The bike paths are not wide enough, nor leveled curbs so you can get up on the curb without bashing your tires.
My biggest problem with NextBike is the fact that I have to walk 3-6 klms just to get to a station. I believe you should have more stations in all the hubs all around the city and in some of the out-of-the way areas wherever there’s a congregation of 100s of people. Even if it’s just five or six more station hubs, in six high-traffic areas will make life a lot easier, and y’all would be taking in far more money.
I’m a travel writer and in all my Strava biking posts, your bikes are prominently featured. I’d love to write an article for Trip Advisory and others promoting your wonderful services.
Please think about adding at least 6, but hopefully 12 or 18 more bike stations.
Thanks

Scam !!

I rented 3 bikes in Gothenburg, Sweden, and I wish I didn’t. So me and 2 family members got on our bikes, and after 20 min we decided to stop, but I couldn’t stop the counter on 2 of them even if I locked the bike, and after about 5 mins wasted , I decided to call the service, as a tourist, my roaming data costs extra , and morover, the service charged me 200 krona for a 2 min support 😤😤, let’s not forget that you get charged 10 krona when you first want to rent but you never get it back. This app is scaming people, I do not recommend and I want my refund cuz you have no right to charge me for a technical problem in your bike 😡😡 One other thing, the minimum you pay per bike is 20 krona , so if you just wanted it for a couple of minutes, then it’s starting from 20 and that’s expensive for a non electric bike
