I used a Bolt ride-hailing service on 17 December 2025 at around 13:00 from Kolonnade Mall KFC in Pretoria. I entered the vehicle at the KFC pickup point, placed my power bank and Wi‑Fi router on the back seat, and then briefly got out of the car to wave to my brother so that he could see which vehi...
On 3 December 2025 at around 18:38 I requested a Bolt car ride from Zama Zama tuckshop in Klipspruit, Soweto, South Africa, to 36905 Red Eye Street, Protea Glen, Soweto.

Halfway into the procedure, the app requested me to change my payment method. I did. About €18 was the amount indicated before confirming the ride; everything appeared to be in ...
Bolt charged €215 for a ride I never took. Out of nowhere, I got an email stating the driver charged me for a 2.5-hour ride—which is quite ridiculous for such a little distance. Not even made it inside the car! I emailed customer service via the app and reached out through it, but their reply disapp...
