All my forms were stamped
And yet I receive a notice that one was not. I had them all stamped at the airport. Someone else has messed this up. I received my refunds for my other purchases. Annoying. Not sure I will use Global Blue again.

Decent enough app - needs some improvements
This app functions well enough but would easily be improved by two minor adjustments. Issue 1: If you create your Global Blue account via this app, you will STILL need to go to the website to complete the registration process. Issue 2: The Global Blue "virtual card" is not integrated into Apple Passbook. You must log in each time (with an active internet connection), navigate to the "virtual card" and proceed from there. Many travelers do not use their phone's data plan whilst on holiday so please be judicious as to your own use. If these two issues are addressed in subsequent app updates, this app would receive 5 stars from this reviewer.

Improvements needed
Nice app. It crashes every time when try to open the calculator. You should add more currencies.
