Here’s what might have happened:
– There may have been changes to the route (e.g., detours, extra stops, unexpected traffic);
– The fare may have been listed as “estimated,” allowing for variations based on actual ride time;
– In some cases, it’s a billing error or a sync issue between the driver’s and rider’s app.
To report the issue clearly:
– Open the Bolt app → “Rides” → select the affected trip.
– Tap “Help” → choose “I was charged more than shown” or “Fare error.”
– Attach a screenshot of the price shown before confirming and explain that the route didn’t change.
– Check if the fare was marked as “estimated” or “fixed.”
