MADRID, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Operators of rental e-scooters will have until Oct. 25 to remove all their mobility devices from the streets of Madrid, the mayor’s office said on Tuesday, following an outcry against reckless driving and chaotic parking by their users.

After withdrawing their licences last month, the mayor’s office said the three foreign operators - Lime, Dott and Tier Mobility - had failed to implement limits on their clients’ circulation or control their parking to regain the licences. Amsterdam-based Dott, Germany’s Tier Mobility and U.S.-based Lime, whose scooters are available via the Uber have around 2,000 e-scooters each throughout Madrid.

      I uninstalled the app, but it was a set fee to unlock it, then a charge per minute.

      Both providers offered multi day “passes”, but they seemed expensive. Basically, if you rent them a few times a week, it’s cheaper to buy one.
