SKIP this Micro Mobility Service – Skip Scooters Review

Skip / Helbiz scooters are behind their competitors in terms of technology, and require pre-payments in increments of $10 vs the others who only charge per mile ridden. I spent 10+ minutes making an account (which required an ID) and attempting to activate / unlock the scooter. My phone confirmed the scooter was unlocked, but the scooter kept sounding an alarm each time I touched it. I spent another 5+ minutes on hold (no answer / no response), and a “live chat” that I ended after waiting several minutes for a response. Other micro mobility providers are much simpler to sign up for, don’t require ID, only charge per mile ridden, and have a functioning customer service department. Skip, however, fails in all of these areas. I highly recommend avoiding the Skip app and their micro mobility services altogether.
