User Reviews

User reviews consistently report the Brompton Bike Hire iOS app as unstable and difficult to use. Major pain points include identity verification failures, signup errors and app crashes, payment authorization problems and unexpected charges, and unhelpful or slow customer support. Additionally, users note insufficient visibility of bike availability at locations. While the concept of on-demand Brompton bike rental is appealing, the current app experience hinders onboarding and using the service.
Pros
  • The app represents a promising on-demand bike rental concept that could offer convenient city mobility.
  • There is potential for a quick, seamless rental process once authentication and verification issues are resolved.
Cons
  • Identity verification and ID upload problems prevent users from completing signup.
  • Frequent registration / signup errors and app crashes (e.g., 'Request could not be completed') block activation.
  • Payment processing issues, including authorization failures and multiple pending charges, occur before service can be used.
  • Customer support is often unresponsive or difficult to reach, with slow follow-ups and ineffective troubleshooting.
  • Lack of clear bike availability or inventory details at locations makes planning and renting difficult.

App kept saying Request could not be completed when I asked to hire after I registered. Frustrating.

I’ve tried to register a dozen times. The app tells me it can’t continue or simply freezes on the page that would offer an opportunity to submit ID. I hope the bikes work better than the IT.

Quite disappointing that you can’t upload your ID to verify yourself to start renting. Makes the app and service completely useless and a non-starter
