Our driver was great. However, unlike other such apps, I didn't receive an email after the ride asking if I would like to tip him. It turns out I was supposed to tip him on the app during the ride. It would have been good to know this. I apparently could have tipped him after the ride, but I opened the app once too often, and now I can't tip him. So the driver gets a 5, and the app gets a zero.

After all the time wasted and prices changes, it's cheaper to just take a meter taxi or use another app. I spent 2 hours trying to book a taxi. One credit card charges 6 times, another charged twice, no taxi ever booked. By the time I was finally able to confirm a taxi, the price has doubled, plus I had to pay highway tolls since now I was very late after hours of trying to get a taxi. Customer support is all AI so no way to get any help or answers, just unrelated form responses.

No. Bad service. I requested a ride, the driver accepted, and then asked us to cancel because it was too far! What? Then I would have been charged. No way. Also, when selecting a ride category, almost every time, I am asked to offer more. So the advertised prices are not honest and equivalent to Uber. Use Uber instead. It's free of the hassle and headache!
