We received the information that some of you are missing major locations to rate in our APP. We are sorry to hear! If you are missing a location, you have two options to help us adding it:
a) Send us the name and address of the location either to info@ecta.com OR submit it via the feedback form of the APP (blue button on the map). We will check it and upload it for you!
b) Tell the company which invited you to the ECTA Drivers APP to inform ECTA about the missing locations.
Thank you!
