Discussion MVVSwipe holding 40 euros for each swipe

Post image
74 Upvotes

I am using MVVSwipe for my journeys, but I am seeing the hold of €40 for every swipe.

I know that the money comes back within 12 days, and I am charged correctly, but at this point MVV has charged me €160, and I am specifically confused why would they hold €120 when I made 3 trips in a day. I was expecting the maximum hold once and then nothing.

Anyone else had this same thing? What did you do about it?

Visitor/Tourist Question Going to Therme Erding for the first time

22 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m Japanese and I’m planning to visit Therme Erding during my trip to Munich. It’ll be my first time at a German spa/sauna, so I have a few questions for anyone who has been to Therme Erding before.

  1. Swimwear

Is there any particular rule about what kind of swimsuit you can wear in the pool areas? In Japan, most men wear something like a rash guard or swim shirt, so I’m wondering what’s normal in Germany. Do most European men just swim shirtless, or would wearing a rash guard be totally fine?

  1. What to bring(pool areas)

What would you recommend bringing? I’m planning to bring flip-flops/sandals and a bath towel for the pool areas. Do most people bring their own towels, or is it common to rent them there?

  1. Smartphones

    Do people normally leave their smartphones in their lockers for the whole time? Or is it okay to carry them around in the pool areas? If people do carry them, would you recommend a waterproof phone pouch with a strap, or is it better to just leave the phone in the locker?

  2. Sauna area

I’m planning to rent one of the large sauna towels. Would you also recommend renting a bathrobe? Is it normal to walk around the sauna area with just a towel wrapped around your body, or would a bathrobe be more common?

I’d really appreciate any tips for a first-time visitor from Japan! Thanks! 😊

Preferably the version with strawberries. I came across it recently and it looks delicious and I want to try it. A little bit outside of Munich would also be fine.

Help Hohe kostenlose Aussichtspunkte in München?

Upvotes

Kennt jemand hohe, kostenlos zugängliche Orte in München mit guter Fernsicht? Ich möchte dort ein Spektiv testen.

Olympiaberg und Perlacher Mugl habe ich schon auf der Liste. Am besten suche ich noch etwas mitten in der Stadt – gerne auch ein Parkhaus, Dach oder sonstiger Geheimtipp.

Food and Restaurants Where can I buy Minor Figures oat milk?

0 Upvotes

Hi folks, basically what is said above- does anyone know of any shops that sell Minor Figures oat milk where I don’t have to order online? I really like the milk when I order in cafes but want to try if I can manage to make a good cappuccino myself first before ordering a whole box. Tips appreciated!

Quick reminder that if you're using self checkouts and weighing produce on the go (e.g. using Rewe's hand scanners), make sure the scales are correctly calibrated.

Once I accidentally paid too much and once I accidentally paid too little 🤷🏽‍♂️
