Cabs charging $.50 "technology charge" when you pay with Credit Card? I know the costs get passed onto clients, but it's the principle. No wonder cabs are losing business to Uber/Lyft. 🙄

Fok taxis. Tired of the racket. There's one local service I use only. Hard working guys, cheap prices, very responsive...they truly care about their business

F taxis. I agree.

The charge is even more in Vegas. Total racket.

When they tell you their terminal is broken at the end of a ride... You throw a fit and threaten to just walk off and then magically oh would you look at that, it's working again! I bust the taximan's asses when they try to dupe me like that, gotta keep them honest. When i get a good cabbie just trying to make a good fare I always tip well, but man am I crazy or do a lot of them just do everything they can do squeeze it out of you
