Well, there was 3 of us, and we each had one luggage and one hand carry, standard size. Driver said it would not fit in a RAV4, but I told him that this luggage came out of a Prius Wagon and that the Rav4 trunk is much bigger. By size comparison, the RAV4 has almost 10 cubic feet more space, and that alone would compare to three standard size suitcases alone. The driver was lazy, and he is a poor representative for Taxi Drivers. Avoid this company if you want good service!

This is a blatant violation of the Lower Mainland taxi licensing rules and I'm taking this up with the Better Business Bureau and the Licensing board. Don't make the mistake of using this company. Call Royal City Taxi or Bonny's Taxi instead. FYI, Coquitlam Taxi, Bel-Air Taxi, Port Moody Taxi, Port Coquitlam Taxi and Maple Ridge Taxi are all the same company run under the same umbrella. Stay away from these dishonest people.

I do not recommend getting a taxi from these people, especially if you are female. First cab we got…read moreour cabbie had a problem with my spouse sitting in the front seat, but reluctantly took us anyways. Second cabbie on the way home had a fit. Told us he had too much stuff for anyone to use the seat, we decided it would be better to just call the company and get a different cab. Third cab arrives and like the first guy he has a problem with my spouse sitting in the front seat. The only reason he took us was because we continually asked why she couldn't sit in the front seat and how it was discriminatory. This was a very hot day and after a block my spouse began to feel uncomfortable as the man turned off the ac because she was wearing no bra. Most of the cabbies make females feel uncomfortable if not unwelcome in the cab compared to if you were a man.. and don't get me started on the state of most cabs and the smell inside them.

Hello, This is Dunya…read moreIsmail, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a very concerning experience I had with one of your drivers yesterday. I believe the driver's name was Gurnaj Sidhu. I called for assistance to have my vehicle jump-started. This is a service I have used before, as I was in the process of selling my vehicle and do not know how to safely jump-start it myself. When the driver arrived, he connected the jumper cables incorrectly. As soon as he attempted to start the vehicle, my car began sparking and produced a significant amount of smoke. Both I and the potential buyer who was present immediately noticed what had happened. We approached the driver to check the connections and it became clear that the cables had been attached the wrong way. The buyer informed the driver that the cables had been connected incorrectly. The driver then called his father and stated that the cables were not working, which was inaccurate. Both the buyer and I witnessed the sparks and smoke coming from the vehicle as a result of the incorrect connection. The driver later brought another taxi driver to assist. They attempted to jump-start the vehicle again, but it did not work. At that point, we believed that the fuses or other electrical components had likely been damaged due to the initial mistake. When I expressed my concerns and told the driver that he should not have attempted the procedure if he was not familiar with how to do it properly, he became extremely aggressive. He began yelling at me, telling me to "shut up," and repeatedly moved very close to my face in an intimidating manner. I felt threatened and uncomfortable by his behavior. What is most disappointing is that at no point did the driver apologize for the damage or take responsibility for what occurred. Instead, he continued to raise his voice and argue with me. As a result of this incident, my vehicle is no longer functioning. I would like to speak with a manager as soon as possible regarding this matter. I have a witness who observed the entire incident, including the incorrect cable connection, the smoke coming from the vehicle, and the driver's behavior toward me. Additionally, the second driver who attended the scene also acknowledged that the situation was not handled appropriately. This entire situation has been extremely upsetting and unacceptable. Not only was my vehicle potentially damaged due to the driver's negligence, but I was also subjected to aggressive and threatening behavior when I attempted to address the issue. As a customer, I should never have to experience damage to my property, be yelled at, or feel intimidated by an employee who made a mistake. The lack of accountability, professionalism, and basic respect shown during this incident is deeply concerning. I am requesting that this matter be investigated immediately and that I be contacted by a manager to discuss a resolution. If this issue is not addressed appropriately and in a timely manner, I will have no choice but to pursue further action, including contacting the police regarding the threatening behavior and exploring other available avenues to recover the costs associated with the damage to my vehicle. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss this matter and the next steps. Thank you for your attention to this serious issue.

Two awesome people arrived to pick us up, one drove our car, and the other drove behind. If you're going to be leaving before midnight, you should have no problem getting a ride, if it's after 1am, reserving is a safer bet. We called a day ahead to reserve. It was only $40 from West Vancouver to downtown and worth every penny. It would have been double had we cabbed there and back and making that morning trek to retrieve an abandoned car with a "wedding" hangover is never a pleasant way to spend a Saturday morning. Thanks Safe Ride - you're going to make me a hero at every wedding from here on in! PS. Cash only.
