Online Ticket System Offline for One Day at Hamburger Verkehrsverbund.
INCIDENT
A hacker attack has been carried out on the Hamburg transport association. From Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday noon, purchasing tickets via the app was not possible or only possible to a limited extent.
Anyone who tried to buy a ticket via the HVV app or online on Tuesday or Wednesday was confronted with the following message: "Due to a technical problem, registration in the hvv app is currently not possible. Please use the anonymous ticket purchase in the hvv app or the hvv switch app."
Then on Wednesday afternoon the all-clear was given: the app and ticket sales are running as usual.
