### 3/5 — Poor attempts to be black service

*2025-01-19, version 2.73.0*

Alto dresses pretty for the dance, but regularly fails to perform.  The rides are always 20-30 minutes away from airport pickups - what’s worse is on too many occasions their driver’s get confused finding the ride share pickup and have to loop around the airport causing further delays.  Today’s ride picked me up 20mins later than expected.

### 1/5 — This service is not serious

*2024-11-04, version 2.73.0*

They bribe airports and get fancy cars, charge double everyone else… all to hire low skill drivers that take twice as long to get to you.

### 1/5 — App is a joke

*2024-09-20, version 2.73.0*

All I’m trying to do is get a quote as a guest and when you select your location it just resets and resets. Tap select tap select tap select, doesn’t go anywhere. What kind of business are you people running? Get real. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Needs ability to add multiple stops

*2024-08-16, version 2.72.0*

Without the ability to add multiple stops this app is useless! If you want to get picked up at point A and make multiple stops, and then get dropped off back in spot A it will stop and end the trip as soon as you get picked. This is so short sided. Also wait times are extremely long 30+ minutes! Great drivers but horrible app.

### 1/5 — Too Many Bugs

*2024-08-16, version 2.72.0*

Was trying to book at ride but the app is buggy and wouldn’t let me select my airport terminal

### 1/5 — 3pm on a Tuesday - NO CARS AVAILABLE?

*2024-08-14, version 2.72.0*

Decided to sign up for Alto so my teenage (+13) son could get a ride home from a school/learning event about 8 miles from my house. When I tried to use Alto to get a ride for him at 3p, I was repeatedly unable to do so—because the app kept telling me, sorry “it’s busy. There are no cars available.” At 3pm on a Tuesday?!? Tried about 4 times before I gave up.  Immediate delete on this stupid app, and then I was left scrambling to find a ride home for my son.

Forget this app; Alto is 2.5x more expensive than other more commonly known ride services, and you can’t even count on there being a car. 1 star all day.

### 1/5 — BAD MORALS

*2024-08-09, version 2.72.0*

DON’T BE A FOOL FOR THIS COMPANY. THEY TACK ON A 18% SERVICE FEE PER RIDE AS “GRATUITY” BUT THE DRIVER DO NOT GET IT.

### 1/5 — Ride share at DAL unreliable

*2024-07-08, version 2.70.2*

If Alto is going to be the only ride share app offered at main pick up at Dallas Love Field, maybe consider keeping the service open beyond midnight as you are working with an airport. The whole point of ride share apps is I have no one to give me a ride late at night, closing at midnight on a holiday weekend is ridiculous.

### 2/5 — Hard to use, bad support

*2024-06-06, version 2.69.0*

Onboarding is difficult and poorly designed, I’d avoid wasting the time to do it. If you do give it a go, be prepared to do email to support before you can ride to complete sign up, with long delays.

### 5/5 — Great service!

*2024-01-30, version 2.62.0*

Loving Alto!  Super dependable, cars are clean and uniformly spacious, drivers are courteous and helpful!

### 1/5 — Overpriced with lower end service and driver quality

*2026-08-03, version 2.73.0*

Multiple drivers appear to be from 3rd world countries that repeatedly ignore user preferences and comments on my appearances that’s inaccurate , unnecessary and unprofessional. This is worse than uber , because I never had one driver made the same comments the same way like Alto’s driver. Their lack of public rating system and unable to unpair with certain driver only enable this behavior more and more. There is no quality control and clear punishment system.

### 1/5 — Trying to schedule work for alto

*2026-07-03, version 2.73.0*

Completely garbage nobody ever tells us when the schedule comes out I hardly ever get any days a week because of this trash company never telling there drivers when the schedule is supposed to come out sometimes it’s between 10 and 11 sometimes it’s 6 sometimes it’s around 9:30 I’m not spending my whole damn day on the website looking for when the damn schedule comes out DO BETTER ALTO

### 1/5 — Service is fine, but when this app is down…🙄

*2026-06-12, version 2.73.0*

There is really no way to get support when the app isn’t working. You try calling the help line they send you back to the app. Where are the humans?

### 1/5 — No airport service

*2026-05-20, version 2.73.0*

Who wants to wait 15-20 minutes for every single Alto ride AND have no airport service? No thanks Alto. Change it back and I’ll change my review.

### 1/5 — Price gouging, non-existent customer service

*2026-03-13, version 2.73.0*

Raised price on me by $20 extra when I scheduled my ride for 40 min later because no rides were currently available. I unknowingly booked the ride without noticing the upcharge. So for the inconvenience of waiting almost an extra hour I was actually charged significantly more. Customer service refuses to call back despite multiple attempts made to reach out to them.

### 1/5 — Over Priced

*2026-01-26, version 2.73.0*

I needed a ride from dallas airport. I downloaded and signed into the app to find that it was 175$ (with $20 off my first ride) to my house in richardson (25 minutes away)

### 1/5 — Useless when there are no cars

*2026-01-04, version 2.73.0*

This is the most frenetic app ever. Searching the same route 3 times in 10 minutes results in wildly different “estimated” fares every time with no indication what the total will be. But worse than that, once you confirm the ride you find out there are no cars available. A total waste and failure of concept.

### 1/5 — Fraudulent Charge

*2025-11-20, version 2.73.0*

Got signed up for a membership despite never having signed up or providing my info. Not sure how this happened but seems super fraudulent.

### 1/5 — Deceptive business practices

*2024-12-21, version 2.73.0*

I’ve never willingly subscribed to the membership of this company. I just downloaded the app and was trying to see its features but according to my banking account, I was charged  $12 membership. Another predatory business that benefits from our out lack of time and attention to read the fine print before downloading or creating an account. Avoid.

### 1/5 — Given Up on Alto

*2024-11-11, version 2.73.0*

I have truly tried to be a user of Alto.  But the website is so misleading!  I received an offer for $10 off of a ride.  But, on their website, I can figure out how to use the $10 coupon.  This has happened on many occasions.  It’s quite obvious that Alto doesn’t want you to use their coupon.  I like the rides on Alto, but their charges are twice as much as Uber or Lyft, and coupons are worthless.

### 5/5 — Worth it!!

*2024-08-30, version 2.72.0*

These folks are the best! The fantastic customer service support team was very helpful and understanding. Extremely comfortable and clean vehicle, with a safe minded driver behind the wheel, who was very nice. Highly recommend the membership if you frequent ride sharing services.

### 5/5 — The best rideshare I’ve tried

*2024-08-27, version 2.72.0*

Remember when the Uber experience was amazing —pre Uber x.

That’s what Alto is.

Amazing experience. Every time.

### 5/5 — Great service

*2024-06-21, version 2.70.2*

It is a great much nice experience than Uber/Lyft so I won’t knock it on the rating but my gosh it’s expensive.

### 5/5 — The only car service I feel safe with.

*2024-03-31, version 2.65.2*

From Uber to Lyft, and in between, Alto is the only service that I feel safe with and have never have an incident with. Their drivers are top, the car is immaculate and whenever I’ve lost something or I’ve ordered a car for someone else, the driver/service always keeps me posted.

### 5/5 — A+

*2024-02-06, version 2.62.0*

Always a clean car and the drivers are great. I never have to wonder if I’m safe. Thanks Alto!
