I called Budget/Access Taxi for a 1.5 mile ride that was three minutes away from my home. I was picking up a used car after being without transportation for over a week. Saying that, I was struggling with funds....When I got there, the driver says "Oh you getting a car?" I told him "Yes" after my original car broken down. This PERSON actually told me the charge was $15, that is $5 per minute, we fussed back & forth a minute and I ended up paying. This is a updated REVIEW (08/09/2016). Watch these people especially in Independence, MO they change the names but the phone numbers 816-921-5000 or 816-835-7172 (sorry Bill) go to this terrible cab service with no budget for us riders. I did get a email from these people asking me how was the service and what could they do to fix a bad experience. I told them what happened and NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN. read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would! Not only they were late, and did not call to notify us, but when they showed up, we could not decide if the car was more dirty on the outside or on the inside. We went along with the ride, because it was very early morning, and we did not want to miss our flight, but we almost ended up regretting it, because the driver was in a trans state. Did not know, if he was tired or he was high. He kept driving over the shoulder for about 80% of the longest 40 minutes ride to the airport. What a horrible experience!...Never again! read more

Called for a ride to a destination 3.2 miles away. Website says they charge $2.50 per mile. I estimated about $8.00. Received call from driver 20 minutes after my initial request. He was at home and told me it would cost me a minimum of $15.00 for him to even get out of the house in the cold. I declined the service. This is not a "budget" taxi and he obviously did not need the money. read more

Read a review on this awesome cab company saying that they had called for a client and the lady driver would not show up at night. So Jessica rate them one star. I found that to be a judgement problem on reviewers part. No cab service in the right mind would dispatch a lady driver based on third party request at night due to security concern. You dont know the man who came in and asked you to call him a cab. What if he robbed and killed the driver, why did he not call from his own phone, how did he get to your location, obviously it is not very responsible to call a cab for someone you dont know let alone garnishing a poor cab services record by your selfish review!!! read more

Ive known the guys over at Budget for years. Their Honest, Dependable, and are very customer service oriented. Being the owner of a RideShare service myself, I understand the heartaches that people post on Yelp, and most of the time the posters allocations need to be investigated and verified before causing unjust harm to a business that some one has dedicated his life to build. Good Luck Budget and remember its our regulars that know us that we value the most. read more

I just wanted to say how much I appreciated taking budget taxi. Very nice, fast, and affordable service. I took them to the grocery store last week on one of the coldest days. I asked the lady cab driver to wait for me. I know I was in there at least 2 hours. She only charged me $50 any other taxi would have charged me at least $100 or more. I rode again today. I still got the same friendly, affordable, and fast service. I will only be taking them for now on. read more
