I would like to give negative stars if it was possible.....
I don't normally rage on social media but if any of you know people that use wheelchair transport here on Oahu, I had the WORST experience with Tan's Transport. I was warned that this company was awful, and I absolutely AGREE!!!
First I spent 40 minutes on the phone trying to tell the guy that he was at the wrong address. He was on the correct street, but on the wrong end of it. I told him over and over to put my address in his GPS. He kept going in circles to the SAME, incorrect address (I know because I heard all the directions on the GPS). I kept trying to tell him where to go, but he kept telling me he's supposed to go to the incorrect address. 40 minutes of this! It was like a bad Rap Replinger cheeseburger episode but not at all funny. He finally says he's at a store which is at the opposite end of my complex but I tell him to just stay there and I'll walk over to him because I can't handle any more stupidity.
But there was a lot more. He had another wheelchair passenger in the van already. So he moved her to a seat, loaded my son on, locked him in, and folded up her wheelchair and put it behind him. Mind you this is a regular passenger van. I am not sure if they are authorized to transport multiple wheelchair passengers at the same time or what. At this point we are already going to be at least 15 minutes late for our appointment.
We get on the freeway and he asks me if he can stop in Waipio first. (We are going from Kapolei to Kapiolani.) I said no, we are already running late, I took off from work to take him to this appointment, and we are not going to miss it. HE THEN COMPLETELY IGNORES ME AND GOES TO WAIPIO ANYWAY. I'm about to lose my #$(^%&&*.
Dr.'s office calls and asks how far out we are, I explain that the wheelchair transport was very late and is now taking us somewhere else first, I estimate we will be about 30 minutes late. They said they will let the Dr. know and call back if we need to reschedule.
We get dropped off, luckily they can take us, and I ask the guy if he can just wait because it will be fast and considering all the aggravation he put us through I didn't want to be waiting around after for a ride back home. He says sure. No surprise at all, he wasn't there when we came out.
A different driver, same company was there, with two other people in the van. He loads up my son, I get in, we head west. Then we get taken through Ewa Beach. These drivers either don't really speak English or pretend they don't. Are we getting abducted at this point? I don't know. He drops these two perfectly healthy looking people off (family? friends?) at a random house and we finally head home. Oh but on the way home I realize HE IS WATCHING TV WHILE DRIVING US!!!! @#$(^$*&@$%@#()@$^*@$%*(
Unbelievable. To think they are being paid all day every day to take medically fragile kids, seniors, dialysis patients, etc. to their medical appointments and this is how they operate! We are talking two different drivers. SUPER SHADY COMPANY!!! I can't believe they are in business. read more
