I can't log in to my discover EU app. I was logged in yesterday and was planning to travel tomorrow but it won't allow me to log in. Initially the error message said to get the interrail eurail app instead (I think I accidentally made an account but I have since deleted that account) but now the error message says they are having technical difficulties. What should I do? I tried to reset my password and that didn't work and logging in with socials (Google) also doesn't work. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am traveling tomorrow ☺️

Thanks

Since you need to travel to travel tomorrow, have you already contacted the DiscoverEU helpdesk:

https://helpcentre.start-discover.eu/hc/en-gb/requests/new

Add screenshots of any error message and describe the exact steps you do to get there.

Another thing you could try is to remove and then reinstall the app.

 

I don't have any experience with the DiscoverEU app, but the Rail Planner app (for Interrail/Eurail) does not require you to log in. After adding the pass, you can travel with it without any login. So I'm having trouble to understand what you are seeing and trying to do.

Could you please:

  1. Describe what you are trying to do.
  2. Describe the steps you take.
  3. Post a screenshot of any error message, or of the screen where you are stuck.

I have messaged every available help area possible (e.g. discover EU, a chat bot, an email address as well as general interrail help pages.) Either they require a pass number to get an immediate response or will reply within 24 hours, I imagine 9am tomorrow at the earliest since it was past 6pm when I messaged.)

 

I was logged in on the app yesterday and able to look at trains, but today I opened the app and it was on a login page. (screenshot attached)

The initial error message I got when I tried to log in was that I was using the wrong app and I should use the general interrail app (screenshot attached).

I then deleted my general interrail account and this error message stopped appearing, instead the message said that they were experiencing technical issues. (screenshot attached)

I have also tried to log into their website on a browser and a message has just appeared that they are experiencing technical issues.

 

It may be because my login is linked to my Google account but I don't remember using a "social login". I tried to login normally (email and password) and it didn't recognise my details so I tried to reset the password but didn't receive an email. Then I tried the social login and it gave the error message.

 

I think all I can do is wait, unless there is another way to book tickets but I don't have access to my pass number anyway.

 

(I have tried deleting the app and app data and turning my phone off and on)

As I guess that you provided the DiscoverEU Customer Support with your pass number, you should get immediate support. You should indicate that you are currently travelling.
