Joyriders and All Access
Regarding the Joyriders 15-minute extension for classic bike rides. Remco previously wrote: "The Lyft Pink upsell/included benefits message is not aware of your Joyrider status. If you have Joyrider status, you'll get an additional 15 minutes on classic bike rides for both membership types." Link: Will Lyft Pink Access All Market? | Bike Angels I currently have the Joyrider perk and an All-Access Pass, and the Citibike app still shows a 45-minute ride limit, while the Divvy app correctly shows 60 minutes. Can you clarify this, please? Based on Remco's post, we thought the 45-minute limit was only reflected in the "Lyft Pink upsell/included benefits message," and once approved as a Lyft All-Access Pass member, the Citibike app would update to reflect the full 60 minutes. I understand that promotional messaging did not recognize my Joyrider status, but now that I'm a confirmed Lyft All-Access Pass member, shouldn't the Citibike app reflect the 60 minutes per Remco's explanation?Will Lyft Pink Access All Market?
Hello Thank you Found some answers :) Coming from Divvy, using All Access Citibike, we got 5 free unlocks at membership rates. When the 5 FREE were used up, we were charged the unlock fee and the per minute for the guest was calculated at the NON-MEMBER rate. (big money) Everything was charged to the member's account, using Lyft Credits (or credit card if you don't have sufficient credits) Without Lyft Credits the whole project is insanely expensive, and even so, you better have some big bucks in Lyft Credits because running up a 60$++ tab with an e-Bike around the park is easy. Even short rides will cost you a sawbuck. (pic) The system worked fine, clear to understand, with few glitches - sometimes we had to re-dock the guest bike because the member's scan did not populate Hahaha - Welcome to New York! We took a Lyft ride for one (1) mile last Sunday and it cost 69$. (pic) OLD STUFF If we upgrade our Divvy membership to Lyft Pink All Access, can we us our Points Bank to pay for extending Lyft Pink All Access membership? YES ANNUAL LYFT PINK MEMBERSHIPS ARE CURRENTLY EXTENDABLE USING BIKE ANGELS EXTENSIONS, BUT MONTHLY MEMBERSHIPS ARE NOT. Will that also give us the same Lyft's car sharing access in all their cities? Answer: YES Will that also give us access to Lyft's bike sharing and the Bike Angels program, in all of their other bike sharing markets?. Answer: NOT "ALL". Why pay Citbike's annual fee of $220 when Pink All Access is only $199? Answer: YOU SHOULDN'T.ALL ACCESS IS CHEAPER Thank youJess' "Bike Angels Beginner FAQ"
Jess' "Bike Angels Beginner FAQ" is a helpful addition to this forum, but it would benefit greatly (and is key to the Bike Angels experience) if it also addressed common problems and glitches people might encounter, along with options for resolutions (which are currently quite limited ). Aside from the expected technical issues, the real problem is the lack of support and the frustration of uncredited points. In the old days, they'd look it up, realize that an error was made, give you the points, and you move on. Those days are long gone. Lyft X ignores the facts and data presented, and refuses to explain why, then ignores any further communication. The phone support, while friendly, is now 100% unhelpful. They might keep you on the line for 30 minutes only to tell you the station was down, without crediting your points, and then refer you to email support. Aside from Jess, the email support is the best, but their communication is slow and cumbersome. Despite taking great care, I frequently lose points for legitimate rides and have given up on complaining. In Chicago, Divvy allows e-Bikes to be parked out of stations, and they're scattered all over the city. I track them down, often finding them in obscure locations. Returning these e-bikes to mainstream areas is crucial for the system’s health, but e-Bikes out of stations also carry the highest risk of not getting credited points. Scooters are not allowed on the lakeshore trail. As you approach, the scooters automatically stops and people just leave the bikes there. It's a long, expensive ride back to a docking station.Lyft Pink All Access
Thank you. Can someone please explain how Free Guest passes and Unlock Fees work? I'm hoping to use them in NYC and Chicago after upgrading to Lyft Pink AllAccess Currently with my Divvy membership, we get 5 free guest unlocks. If I get Lift Pink All Access, you get 3 guest passes, is that in addition to the 5 free guests unlocks, so 8 total? What's the difference between unlocks and guests passes and how do they work exactly? Appreciate the help. Thank you.
Abrupt Cancellation of Lyft Pink All Access Membership (linked to Chase Sapphire Reserve)
I originally received my 2-year Lyft Pink All Access membership through my Chase Sapphire Reserve card, which also got me into the Bike Angels program. Using Bike Angels points, I extended my membership to at least July 2025. However, after canceling my Chase Reserve card yesterday, my Lyft Pink membership was abruptly canceled too! I still have 380 points in my points bank. Reached out to Lyft support, and they said a specialized team would get in touch, but I haven’t heard back from anyone yet.Lyft at X (Twitter) is Ignoring Me :(
Lyft at X (Twitter) is Ignoring Me A few times a week the Divvy app fails to credit my earned points Usually/always, submitting a screen shot and photo to X has quickly resulted in the missing points being credited. This last weekend Lyft X denied crediting 12pts, and are refusing to respond to my absolute proof they are earned, and will not give me a reason why? It's simple. I moved eBikes from the deserted "underground" to what is one of the busiest docks in the whole city. (pic) All the bikes were moved within the 15 minute, 12 points time frame from the exact same place to the dock. One ride was missing the 12pts credit. More sad than the amount of time spent on this project, fighting for a earned 12 points, is the fact that Lyft X is ghosting me. 18 24-18.16, shows a glitch in the app. A two minute ride that has no movement Photos attached Please, can someone help? Thank you.Pedal assist preference on ebike
In citibike help pages I see this info https://help.citibikenyc.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039406631-Riding-with-an-ebike In instances where there are no classic bikes at a station,memberscan now rent one of our new, next-gen silver ebikes in “classic mode.” This means that you can rent this ebike for no extra charge, but there will be little to no e-assist for the ride. To make this choice, you’ll see a screen after scanning the QR code that allows you to choose between riding with full assist or riding with low assist. But in divvy (chicago) help pages, which otherwise looks pretty similar, it doesn't have that section https://help.divvybikes.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046649911-Riding-with-an-ebike We have those same bikes as NYC, except they have a cable lock fitted for docking out of station. Is the low-cost ebike ride also possible in Chicago, riding with low assist? If so, how to select it? If not, why not?Big Change to the app?
There has been a big change to the Divvy app A great way to protect against losing your boost if a docking station status changed moments before grabbing a bike, was after selecting the exact docking station, scan the bike from within that open window What used to happen, if you were in danger of losing your boost, a warning would tell you. After losing my boost when I was sure about the docks status, and using the above technique, we tested, and that feature is gone. We switched from using the fob exactly for that protection, as more than a few times a "quick switch" caused us to loose boost. Does anyone remember that feature and is it in fact, gone? ThanksIs This Fair?
Is this FAIR!!! The app tells us there are 150 bikes available at a Valet tended docking station, and 3pts for pickup (pic) And when we get there the dock has nothing?!!? Empty Please, some compensation for Lyft's grave error in 90 degree heat, or please get the algorithm fixed Okay we're asking too much. Not for the compensation. But to expect Lyft will ever fix the system. Sure, we don't want the Angel thing to end, but why can't the big brains fix these inconsistencies Thank you.
