The cab driver was very polite. The cab was scrupulously clean. Smooth driving. He said "Home sweet home" upon drop off. Did not surcharge. Maybe have to rethink Uber.

I got so mad at him I was raising my voice. He was absolutely unfit for purpose and all for a cost of $96! He didn't listen, he couldn't read and he certainly could not follow simple instructions. He should NOT be driving a cab, or anything else. He's dangerous.

I am a loyal Coop Taxi customer. I don't take taxis very often, maybe once or twice a month, but I…read moream pleased with their drivers. They have been consistently pleasant and laid back. It is rare that I have to wait longer than 5-10 minutes for a ride. All of the drivers have been safe and get me from place to place in one piece. If there are any areas for improvement, I would say it is with the app: It could be simpler and more user friendly. For example, when using the app you have to manually select a pickup location. When choosing the pickup location the interface is very sensitive and is frustrating to use at times. I would suggest having your pickup location selected automatically using your GPS signal. This would be very helpful. Otherwise I think the app is useful. Thanks, and keep up the good work, guys!

I've now used this taxi company twice. Once was to go from the airport and the other was to go to…read morethe airport. Both rides were excellent. Since it was the fixed rate I knew what I was paying before hand. In both cases the drivers were friendly and very polite. The drive was really smooth also. On the ride to the airport, I used the online booking. That was perfect. I needed my taxi to be there a 4:00am and it was there 15mins in advance. I received a text message when the driver got to my location. Very happy with the results

Would not recommend & the only positive thing was that we arrived home safely…read more It started off with the driver commenting that he was not happy it was a short distance. He then drove very fast & carelessly. The amount shown was $48 but he charged us $58. I asked why & he said because it was a van which did not make any sense as we had a ride a week before in a van with another taxi company & we were only charged $44. He was very rude when I asked him to explain & he repeatly said "it's a van". It was a terrible end to our long day after travelling for 18 hours. We did not appreciate being overcharged & being mistreated!

I decided to try this service after a few weekends ago using Dedicated Designated Drivers (see…read moreother review). Like the other company, they will call you ahead of time before they get there. No problems, as they were prompt at the time I needed them. I just called an hour before I needed a pick up. The driver was friendly and had a good chat on the way home. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars is that there was some confusion with the payment option. When it came time to pay, I was going to pay by credit card, however, I was informed he didn't have the portable machine. So we had to go back out to a bank by my place so I could withdraw cash. My driver found out later that, yes, could pay by CC, he just had to phone it in to the office. I will give him the benefit of the doubt, as he was new and was probably not made aware of this. I think the business just needs to invest in a couple of portable payment machines like their competition, as this may cause future confusion (the website states you can pay by MC/Visa). If I do use them again, I will just take out cash, as I'm not a fan of giving my credit card over the phone unless I really know the company. Other than that, I had no problem with using them. They charge a flat $40-50 for surrounding Edmonton area, so it cost me $50, compare that to my last cab ride from the same area back home and it cost $70! So more than reasonable price. Now, the other company (Dedicated Designated Drivers) would have cost me about $72 (you can put in your destination on their website to get a quote), but if you are going a shorter distance their minimum charge is only $33. So depending on your distance, you can decide which company you want to go with. Either way, please don't drink and drive and give these guys a call should you drive and then end up drinking.

He was friendly, cheerful, and extremely helpful. He pushed my cart to the vehicle, he unloaded the cart too. When we reached our destination, he helped unload and carried our groceries to the door. This is the first driver that has done this. He restored my faith in Barrel taxi. He should teach customer service to the other drivers.

Tried TappCar for my first time. It has been ages since I've used a standard taxi - but this time I…read morefelt like trying something new. TappCar didn't arrive or even call me. 5:45pm was the scheduled time of arrival and now it is 7pm at my destination. I ended up driving my group to where we needed to be (company Christmas party) - certainly no drinks for this guy. Thank you, TappCar. Heh, I'm not really a drinker anyways. I tried calling three times to see what was going on with the driver. The first time I reached someone who put me on hold which ended up a dropped call after about five minutes. The other two calls also reached someone who said something to me which I couldn't make out. I ended up on hold both times. We couldn't be late so I ended up driving. Two stars rating provided mainly because I have yet to try the service. In my opinion, it takes two strikes to earn a one star rating. I guess I'm being generous.

Capital Taxi is a decent Taxi service…read more Nothing really changes from one company to the next but there's nothing to complain about with this one. They get you from point A to point B without causing you any trouble. They do seem to arrive faster than some other ones though but I don't take a cab very often so I am not exactly a good judge of the timing. If you are in a hurry give them a try and see if I was right.

This was my first time using them, as I normally call a cab, but due to some frustration with Co-Op…read more(see my review), I gave them a call. I wasn't sure how busy they were but called about 4 hours ahead to see if I could pre-book a pick up at 12:30, which they allowed me to do. The girl was friendly, the only snag was that it took a bit to get the correct directions, but that wasn't their fault. My buddy lives in one of those new neighborhoods and of course no numbers, but names only. She was even awesome when I called back an hour later to change my pick up time. They called about 10 minutes before they were there, so had plenty of time to get ready to leave. One person will follow in another car while you ride in your own car. The girl driving was friendly and chatted....now compare this to a cab ride where most of the time I had rude drivers talking on cell phone or ignoring you. Now the prices will depend on distance, mine was about $37 (plus tip) for a 8 Km ride home. They also have portable machines for debit or credit card. Yes, the price may be a little more than taking a cab there and back, but I think it's a better alternative. As the other reviewer noted, if you add it up, it's really not that much more. No unreliable cabs. More of a hassle to try to get back to pick up your car the next day. In the past I have used something similar to this, the Operation Rednose which was free but accepted donations. But now with this as an additional option, there are no excuses to be drinking and driving. Note, there is another company offering same service called AB Designated Driver, but I have never used them, but is another option to look into as well. I will definitely use them again if I don't want to cab it,, or if I have a night where I drove and didn't plan to indulge at first. And will recommend them to friends.
