DISHONEST PEOPLE Long story short, my Fiance and I took a brief ride from Grand Central to Port Authority, not long after I realized that I did not have my phone on me. I was able to use the find my phone app and could see it was in the cab going around the city. I pinged my phone numerous times only for it to be manually turned off for 12 hours. I emailed the dispatcher with the information he needed and have NOT heard back and I also followed up before I posted this review. They have no intention in helping me recover my phone nor have the decency to respond back - avoid all yellow cabs at all costs. Just awful.

It just doesn't work! Like many other reviews, I am disappointed that I can't give less than one star. When using Curb only to simplify payment, the transaction went through to my credit card but did not go through to the taxi company. They showed that they didn't receive the payment even though they could see that it went through to my card, and insisted that I still needed to pay them. I called the taxi company, Metro Cab in Boston, and they said this happens all the time and I needed to pay them and get the refund from Curb. I thought Curb would save time and money not cost more time and money. The taxi company told me I shouldn't use Curb and I suggested that they shouldn't advertise for it in their vehicles if they were going to force me to deal with a refund when it doesn't work. I will never use Curb again and would encourage all taxi companies to drop the system if they are going to dump the problem issues onto their customers.

Not dependable Not dependable - scheduled a cab 8 hours in advance to make a flight. 13 minutes after the cab was scheduled to pick me up, I received a text saying there were no cabs available and I would have to reschedule. The app claims you can easily schedule your ride - and it is easy to schedule. Just don't count on them being there as promised. Uber and Lyft have this perfected - Curb is further proof why old-fashioned cabbies are on the way out.

Scheduled a taxi for early morning Scheduled a taxi for early morning. Driver assigned, after several minutes I noticed car not moving and I. A neighborhood street. Called dri8, he asked where I was going. After I told him, he said system is not working. Cancelled ride. Requested new ride, same situation. 2nd assigned driver hung up without speak.

This is an extremely misleading app This is an extremely misleading app. I used Curb for the first time yesterday. When I booked my ride the cost was shown as $19.00 and it’s temporary hold, was put on my card to secure that amount. When I got my receipt at the end of the ride, the final cost was $29.00! The base price was almost $20.42, not $19.00. Then there were taxes and fees, including a $1.00 fee to use the app (an “improvement surcharge”), totaling $4.00. Finally, my 20% tip was based on the final cost, including the $4.00 in taxes and fees, rather than the base cost. So it ended up costing significantly more than I thought it would be. They need to be a lot more transparent in their pricing structure.
