    Terrible. I booked a taxi and had to cancel it 2 days in advance and he refused to refund it…read more Ridiculous.

    Unethical. What…read morestarted at a positve experience with a driver (named Jonathan) arriving to my house at the exact time requested, a seamless drop-off at my requested destination turned turned into a frustrating experience. Upon arrival to destination, I gave my credit card to the drive to cover the $60+ fare, and he wrote down the credit card # on his clipboard. I game him a $10 cash tip in the meantime. I was also looking for pickup later in the day, so told him I would be looking for a ride later for a return trip home. No problem, and he supplied his cell # to text him later. Later in the day, I proceed with a text and he texts back to say he is not in the area and no other drivers are available within 20-30 mins. No problem, I pursued another taxi company and requested a pickup. Not too much later, my Main Line taxi driver calls to let me know he can come to pick me up, but he was a little way away. No problem, I'll wait for him. After an hour, no cab and I ended up taking my "backup" from another cab company. Lo and behold a phone call from Main Line saying my taxi had arrived. At this point, I had already taken my "backup" cab the 45 min commute home and was resting comfortably. Over and done with, right? Nope. I check my credit card statement a few days later to see 2 pending transactions from Main Line taxi. One was for the original cab ride ($60) and another charge had appeared for $81. Turns out the driver went ahead and charged me a fare for his failed pickup after having been over an hour late. Needless to say I have since disputed the fraudulent charges with my bank and will do everything in my power to make people aware of the difficulty I encountered. Take into consideration that this could be a case of one renegade driver, but it does reflect negatively on Main Line Taxi as a whole. I'll be relaying the same to the Better Business Bureau.

Not much of a choice in Philly for a taxi, so I called a few with better star-rating, but either they didn't answer, or couldn't come. This is the one that told me "5-10 minutes." We waited 20, but he was sick again, so we came in. It's nine hours later, he was able to sleep, and never did hear from that taxi.

    What is up with the shady cab drivers in Philadelphia?? I have been to cities all over the place…read moreand have NEVER been asked to pay in cash or had the driver act annoyed if I didn't. Very rude and unprofessional. If you want to steal on the down low, that is on you, but you do not solicit cash from passengers. It was bad enough the guy showed up with a friend in the passenger seat, very unprofessional. Not only should the number of people in the car be limited right now with the virus, but not all women would feel safe getting into a cab with 2 men in the front. I had a bad experience with another taxi company too. I was also told by a greeter on the street that it happens often. Drivers deserve for people to use Uber and Lyft if they cannot be professional. This does not make tourists want to visit if they cannot even take a cab to get somewhere without being harassed and treated with disrespect. Your company takes credit cards and that is what most people use. Deal with it or get a new job.

    Uber will always get 5 stars from me…read more Living in one of the 5th largest cities in the U.S., it is often hard, no, impossible to be anything other than a nameless face in a crowd, an otherwise anonymous customer number or just a delivery address. As many issues that Philly might have, there is an unfettered joy and sense of adventure for me with the random, chance encounters the city offers. As I am conveyed back and forth to the South Street vet with my sick little white cat, once again I get to have some funny, interesting, happy, poignant and occasionally simply dull, yawning interactions with Uber's legions of drivers. I love getting a minute peek into the thoughts and lives of these drivers who are so often taken for granted and treated like robots. Sure, some of these folx have complicated lives, second and third jobs and want nothing more to get through their shift in peace and quiet. As an introvert, I always test the conversational waters when I step into an Uber vehicle. If the driver answers me in monosyllables, I take it he or she simply wants to drive, thus I keep to myself. Some drivers are possibly bored yet enthused about chatting so as a result I have been privileged to learn about their families, their country of origin, their snack preferences, some of the odd/interesting/pesky passengers they've conveyed, music tastes and most of all-how connected everyone of us really are. Almost as good, since I don't drive, is having the little kid in me awakened and absolutely thrilled at going out for a car ride. (Sure, it isn't free but the little boy in me never even considers that. He simply has a blast seeing the city from a vehicle...) While Uber is a business, it would be nothing without its drivers. Sure, sometimes they are slow to arrive or they flip your trip to another driver. From time to time, a driver is having a rotten day and acts out a bit. Examine your conscience. Haven't you had similar days or nights, no matter what you do for a living? Rather than bitching and moaning, treat your Uber ride as a way to connect with someone you'd probably never meet in your regular social circle. See your driver like the unique, silly, grouchy, aspiring, single parenting, hard working, dream filled human being they are; under the t-shirt, under the jacket, under the trucker's cap, behind the knock off shades-they are someone just like you.

    On Monday, January 19, 2026 about 3;30 pm, I decided to call an Uber for a ride from Whole Foods…read more The app promised it would arrive in just 13 minutes. However, after waiting and trying to reach the driver with a call and a text--without any response--I found myself increasingly frustrated. After 15 long minutes with no sign of my ride, I had no choice but to request another Uber. This experience was simply unacceptable! It's hard to believe that with all the advanced technology at your fingertips, the system could fail so completely. I tried to cancel the ride, but it said it would take 16 minutes! And let
