**What to do if your key is stuck or broken in the lock**
🔒 **Is your key stuck inside the lock?** If you cannot remove your key or lock your bike, please do the following:

Next, open the [app](https://app.swapfiets.com?destination=home) and search for "There's something wrong with my bike", then select "Other issue". Finally, book an on-location appointment so we can come exchange your bike.
