please be aware of lyft doing very poor background checks on drive and cars in general. my lyft to lax was with someone clearly on drugs, and my lyft to nashville from franklin was with an old honda, no ac, the driver insisted on keeping the windows open even while on the highway, on one of the hottest days in July read more

I took the Lyft from the airport to my retrieve my car from a friends apartment complex. My friend was out of town as well. I was traveling with my 4 year old son and had a large suitcase, a carry on bag, backpack and a carseat. The driver was helpful picking us up which was alarming when he dropped us off at a location that was not the address. He stated he couldn't drive any further because there were no more instructions. I didnt know you had to be instructed to be a decent human being and not leave a woman and her small child in a unsafe location in the almost pitch black (not much lighting in parking areas). I had to walk with my son past 11 buildings to get to my car. He dropped us at the entrance of the apartments and we had to walk to building 11, this was not easy with all I had to carry along with trying to reassure my son we were going to be ok because he was afraid. This complex I was not familiar with (my 2nd time visiting the area) and due to the time of night and lighting I felt very uncomfortable. Thanking God nothing happened to us because we easily could've been a news report with all the crime in Nashville. Even after trying to resolve this with Lyft they said the charge was valid because he left us in the vicinity, really?! I would never leave someone in that type of situation. I drove for Lyft briefly and made sure all my riders made it to their destination safely. I will never use them again. You won't get a 2nd chance to put my son's life and my own in danger nor will I pay you to do it! read more

Not only did they take the money and claim it as a temporary hold it made me wait for almost 2 hours for driver details for it to just cancel on me and say no vehicles in the area. Big waste of time and only added to my stress. read more

This review was for a trip to Nashville from Dallas for the NYE celebration in downtown on Broadway. Our airbnb host suggested lyft as a way to get around easily. The other company has been overall great on trips to California, Colorado and New York however a personal endorsement goes a long way. We had some wonderful drivers for the night getting from the Wedgwood neighborhood to downtown and back again. Wait times were short getting into and out of downtown however once we were out of that concentrated area we found ourselves stranded with the app saying no drivers were available. Surge pricing was in effect all night as expected and ranged from 50% to 250%. Because we stayed just south of downtown this didn't have quite the inflationary effect for us. Overall the experience was positive and we were glad to have such enthusiastic people willing to work while we enjoyed ourselves. read more

There is a first time for everything. Lyft worked well in the past. But on a trip to Nashville I summoned a Lyft to a hotel input which I properly entered for a destination, got a "good deal" prompt ($15 fare) for one driver which I selected, and then met driver when he arrived. He told and showed me a $31 fare...???!!! I was livid but thought we could fix the problem en route. I thought wrong ...I'm going back and forth with customer service who is taking no ownership for app dysfunction. Unhappy customer today! read more

Scheduled a ride at 9:30am for 3:45 pm. 1st driver canceled and the second driver canceled. Then no drivers found. Missed a meeting that cost me thousands of dollars. i set this up way in advance and you still screwed it up. i will never use your company again and I will make sure my company does not use you as well. Comcast has better service that you guys. read more

Absolutely the WORST drivers in the city. I didn't even ride in a Lyft, and was nearly hit 3 times leaving a concert in Nashville tonight, all 3 vehicles had a light in the front window saying "Lyft." One driver was even confronted by the traffic cop about being a dipshit, and the driver (who had earbuds in while driving) completely blew off the officer and continued down the street that the officer was trying to close off for purposes of getting several events out of town safely. There is no way I would ever trust my life, or someone I love with any of the drivers I encountered tonight, and I wasn't even in one of the vehicles. I will add that I also saw several Uber drivers, being much more considerate and cautious. I've never used a rideshare, nor do I know how they screen the drivers, but whoever has that job in the Nashville market should be fired. read more

It was a terrible experience. My driver smoked in the car. Yelled at me and cursed at my child. She also charged me cash. And wouldn't let me pay on the app. I will never use LYFT again. read more

I'm a frequent passenger and sometimes driver. Lyft is a great company and technology. Looking forward to seeing the community grow! I've given over 200 Lyfts in Nashville & really enjoy it. read more

Fabulous service! TIP: For your first ride free, enter code LAURA3254 or use this link: https://lyft.com/i/LAURA3254 Enjoy! read more

I needed two Lyfts in one day and both rides were perfect! They accommodated my daughter and I after my car broke down and a taxi service left me stranded for 1.5 hours due to "high volume" [nobody wanted to drive to Hermitage!]. Les and Jesse have been my drivers so far and I was pleased with both gentlemen. They took directions through a shortcut(s) I prefer to use! Les even had candy! The app shows their location in real-time when they are en route to pick you up; this is very helpful. The text you receive when they arrive also notes their car make, model and color. read more

HI, My mom who is blind, heart issues, several health issues and elderly took a Lyft yesterday. The driver decided to take advantage of her and drive way out of his way to charge her more. It cost her 65.00 to go from Smyrna to Vetrans Parkway in Murfreesboro. I'd like to talk to this scum bag. Don't take advantage of an old person. It's not like she has much in her account. I would never take a Lyft after this. Just absolutely discussed. read more

Much better than most cities. I choose to use Lyft Lux or Premier, as the drivers are required to carry a 4.8 rating or higher (just FYI!). Even though I pay a little more, I don't mind. The drivers are typically kind and willing to chit-chat if you like. Certainly better than a cab! read more

I've used Lyft several times now, mainly to get around Midtown and Downtown Nashville in order to save on parking costs. I live near Belmont, so I'm near downtown which makes the fares inexpensive. The wait to get a car downtown is typically less than the wait to get our car back from valet and is many times cheaper than paying to park. Every time I've used Lyft the drivers have been nice. I've never felt they have taken me out of my way to increase charges. I would highly recommend Lyft to anyone who is visiting Nashville or lives here and wants to have an easy, reliable way to get around town. read more

When me and my wife went from 4th and Charlotte to the Country Music Hall of Fame I was charge $6.50. This was the amount I was told ahead of time. When we returned to 4th and Charlotte from the Country Music Hall of Fame, I was told there was a computer problem, and Lyft would take care of the cost from my credit card. When I received my credit card statement the charge was $15.00. I personally would not use the company again read more

I am very annoyed with Lyft. I did a "schedule" ride on the app the night before to be picked up at 5:00am. I got a confirmation the the driver would be there. Well 5:00am rolls around on the day my flight leaves. No one. I get on the app and it says that the driver will be there in 25 min (keep in mind, my goal was to get to the airport at 5:30 and I live 30 min from the airport). Anyways, I suck it up and make peace that I won't get there until 6:00. So I'm sitting there on the app watching my Lyft driver driving the opposite direction of my house and get another notification that a different driver will be there in 30min (because our previous driver cancelled). Needless to say, I cancelled the whole thing and I'm driving there on my own and now I'm going to have to pay for parking at the airport which I was trying to avoid. So if you are planning on using the "scheduling" feature on Lyft. Do yourself a favor and don't. You aren't made a priority and people can cancel any minute that they want and you'll miss your flight/appointment. read more

I just recently started using Lyft to and from the airport. In comparison to the local taxis and having to deal with language barrier and unreliable and expensive car service, Lyft, in my opinion is way better and definitely cheaper at just $9 on half off weeks. The big plus, I don't have to wait in the taxi line at the airport, I just simply access the app after baggage claim and by the time I get to the Rideshare area it's only a 5 minute wait the most! read more

Consistent,quick, friendly and reasonably priced. My husband and I have been using Lyft for about a year, all great experiences!

Will NEVER use Lyft again!!!! Tried the service 1 time in July & the driver claimed he's been driving with Lyft for a year. But, he didn't recognize the stadium that's been there for years!! Really?!! Then, last week, we noticed Lyft charges on our bank account. Went to the bank & found out they've been fraudulently charging us for rides we never had. There's been over $400 taken from us in a 5 day period!! Our bank is awesome & is getting the fraud department on it. But, when we tried to contact Lyft, we couldn't find a phone number & could only email them!!! So far, no response from Lyft & our bank is in the process of helping us file charges. Never again!!!! read more

Great experience. Push a button on your phone and a car shows up within minutes. All payments are done via the app. Great drivers who are happy to see you and take you where you need to go. I have never waited more than 10 minutes to get a car. According to the map on their site, the hot areas are downtown, East Nashville, Midtown, and 12 South. If you're in these areas, you'll likely get a car much more quickly. read more

lyft has extremely poor customer service!! especially if you left your item in the vehicle. i rode with a man named kelly who has yet to respond to meet me so that i can retrieve my items and lyft has not been helpful in any way aside from blaming the rider. read more

Lyft was a truly bad experience for me. The car was crappy, and all the driver did was complain about his crumby wages the whole trip. Maybe Lyft could find better drivers with better cars and pay them a little more? I don't care any more! You lost my business! read more

I'm giving Lyft a poor review simply because I reached out to customer service and was not given a viable answer. I and my two friends ordered a Lyft home from dinner in Nashville to Brentwood. The driver pulled up and was kind however the second the vehicle started moving the whole thing rumbled and vibrated and my friends and I fell silent... The car shook/vibrated loudly the whole ride and there was no way out of it as we hopped right onto the highway towards Brentwood. As he was driving I noticed his steering wheel turned completely to the left as we were going straight. There is no way this vehicle has been inspected in YEARS. I took a photo of the steering wheel inconspicuously and reported the ride as unsafe and asked for a refund. A Lyft representative had the nerve to email me that my friends and I should have exited the vehicle and called another one (ON THE SIDE OF HIGHWAY 65). I will no longer use Lyft and my father's company has switched to Uber thanks to my poor customer service experience and unsafe vehicle they did not seem to care about. Just a heads up for people who have other ride share options, I would choose Uber over Lyft. read more

Re:AIRPORT fees. Lyft BNA AIRPORT fee/toll is $0 for dropoffs and $5.50 for pickups. Uber is additional airport charge of $3 for any rides to/from BNA. Otherwise longtime user. Great service for the price. read more

I always choose Lyft if it is available. Cars are always clean and drivers are always nice. Plus it offers a level of safety that I simply don't feel when I am in a cab alone. read more

I lost my wallet while riding in a car in L.A on a Saturday on my way to the airport . I contacted my driver and he returned my wallet the next day--great. The trouble was getting my wallet back from the L.A. hub at 662 S Santa Fe Ave, as I don't live in California. I reached out to the customer service on the Saturday to let them know to expect it. I let them know that I need it sent to me ASAP. When the driver returned it, they texted me to let me know that it arrived. Great, I respond via text, because they have no phone number at the location. Please send it to address ASAP. For 7 days, I have yet received a status of my wallet, a tracking number or anything! It's just sitting in a locker and no one can call me to let me know anything. I've texted, emailed, phone called their customer service, and the communication at Lyft is horrible. I've had to reexplain my case every time I've called!! There is no supervisor I can hold accountable. Communicating to the L.A. hub goes like this: I have to submit a report online or through my app to get a phone call from their customer service team. I chat with the customer service team, who sends a text or email to their lost and found team. The lost and found team contacts the hub--again only through text or email. FOR SEVEN DAYS the hub has not returned a text or email from the lost and found team. How can Lyft pride themselves on customer service when they have the most inefficient system of communicating? They refuse to disclose the phone numbers of the corporate office, lost and found centers or local hubs. NO ONE IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE!!! I will never use Lyft again. read more

Colin arrived within 2 minutes of a call. Pleasant, efficient, clean car. We waited THIRTY-FIVE minutes for a Yellow Cab that never showed. Thanks to Colin, had time for dinner before the Opry! read more

Lyft is the best thing to hit Nashville. The are fast reliant. I love the app. The cars are clean and the people are friendly and they will stop at the drive thru and get you some food. They speak english. No money changing hands. They have great music and great conversation. Helpful and giving. The best ride that I have ever took. read more

BEWARE: Charged more than I was quoted and when I questioned was offered a 5$ credit ON MY NEXT RIDE!!!!!

Lyft in Nashville is great. I always get a driver a couple minutes after request. The drivers are always top notch. For my initial ride I used the promo code JEREMY8671 and got up to $25 value for the ride so there was no charge to me (how awesome is that). If you need a ride I would definitely recommend Lyft. read more

Price gouging! We used them after Pilgrimage and they charged us 75% surcharge for prime time. Other people were charged over $200 for their rides because of extra charges. Check Pilgrimage FB feed to see the ridiculous rates. Will never use them again read more

I requested a ride, got an estimate (for the same route it was $13 earlier in the night) and got a $71 bill for the ride back.... very unhappy with this. Get $5 off a ride to sign up and get the reduced $71 fare! Best deal in Nashville! read more

Lyft in Nashville Was awarded a 20 coupon. Took a ride and got 5 off. What a ripoff scam. They should be banned. I will stick with Uber going forward never been ripped off with them. read more

Lyft didn't email me a receipt, didn't show up when I called, and took someone else home. They then charged my credit card for that ride. When I called the driver she told me I was a liar. The only customer support line is an emergency line. I still haven't received a refund. I will never use lyft again, and I will tell everyone how awful it is. read more

Caring company with a true mission to improve traffic and travel. Excellent rides daily. Love Lyft over Uber any day!

Do not use lyft. The same day I entered my credit card info into the lyft app My card was compromised. $1500 in charges. Lyft may say they keep your information secure. But not in my case. I used my credit card the same places as my friends did at the exact same time and day. I am the only one who loaded the lyft app and entered my credit card information. No one else had issues because they did not use lyft. read more

AMAZING! I have used it a couple of times and the people are awesome! Its nice to have a conversation with the driver and they aren't creepy and ride in a nice car that doesn't smell like vomit and cleaning products. MUST TRY! read more

I drive for this company. Customers constantly slamming my door, when they slam, they break the mechanisms in the door. costs 200-300 everytime. This is the fourth time. Lyft refuses to cover any damages caused. Just bad business. read more

Awesome experience with LYFT Nashville. Coming from NY I had not heard of it before only Uber. Read reviews for Nashville and decided to try it. Better and less expensive than UBER. FIrst time users even get credit towards your rides. We barely paid anything while we were there. Meet great locals with awesome suggestions on what to do, where to do. The app worked flawlessly. read more

Hiring process is a joke. They trust drivers to make the decision and if they feel you are a threat to take business from them they will deny you. That works out to having a ton of bad drivers on the road representing them. Use Uber all day long. read more
