## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Plenty of drivers across the city, but no one wants to accept the order.

*2026-04-30, version 1.17.0*

Terrible service with absolutely awful customer care!! These guys (drivers) also work for Uber on the side and artificially inflate prices. I’ve already taken a ride from Avalon Mall to the airport for $26; now the price shows $28, but as soon as I place the order, I get a response: “Sorry, we can’t find a driver for you.” Meanwhile, the price on Uber with these same drivers is $60.
I’d like to understand whether there are any penalties for these kinds є of shady tactics.

### 1/5 — Awful customer service

*2024-08-16, version 1.11.0*

Rude call agent, ride failed to be booked on time.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-11-25, version 1.7.0*

The app keeps saying something went wrong.  Try again.

### 1/5 — Great idea but terrible execution

*2023-07-17, version 1.2.0*

I am a regular customer and I will not be booking with this company anymore. When all the bugs are fixed I assume this will be a great convenience, but it is absolutely horrible to use currently. Booking takes forever, I booked a cab to leave the mall at 5pm, it took over an hour and numerous phone calls to dispatch for someone to show up, and it wasn’t even the driver assigned to me. I had to cancel my ride which was prepaid for, so that I could get in the cab with the gentleman who finally showed up, so that I could pay him. Terrible system and one of the dispatch operators was very rude and hung up on me. I’ll be switching to Jiffy

### 1/5 — App says something wrong

*2023-07-10, version 1.1.0*

The app keeps saying there something wrong

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-07-09, version 1.1.0*

The app won’t work. I keep putting my phone number in but nothing happens.

### 1/5 — Simply does not work.

*2023-07-09, version 1.1.0*

Uploaded from the link provided  by City Wide Taxi when I hauled a cab from my mobile phone. Would not accept my mobile phone number. Repeated this process two more times. No joy. Uninstalled the app.

### 1/5 — Unable to launch

*2023-07-08, version 1.1.0*

App says - Something went wrong

### 2/5 — Lack of Mission and Vision.

*2024-02-15, version 1.9.0*

Scandal! In good weather, there are always taxis. But it is impossible to find a taxi in snowy weather. I guess you are waiting for the weather to get better to work. But I can already walk in good weather. When it comes to transportation, you must have a mission. But I guess not. I walked not for one day, but for days because I could not find a taxi in the snowy weather. Maybe to do this job, you should have more cars.

### 2/5 — I can't register in the app

*2023-07-08, version 1.1.0*

When I type in my number it gives me an error with the text, something went wrong please try again later.
Hope it will be fixed soon🙏🌼

### 5/5 — Great way to beat uber surcharge

*2025-12-24, version 1.17.0*

As the local cab company they have a fixed rate so a much better choice during congested times compared to ride share services which do a surcharge

### 5/5 — Fast trip

*2024-03-29, version 1.9.0*

Trip was fast

### 5/5 — Basically UBER

*2024-03-15, version 1.9.0*

I use the app very frequently and also have used Uber a lot. The app is so similar! Just make sure if you pay on the app that the driver doesn’t also make you pay

### 5/5 — Amazing app 10/10

*2024-01-10, version 1.7.0*

Finally an app to see where your taxis is and how long until he will be at your destination. 10/10 for taxis in Newfoundland

### 5/5 — Excellent system

*2023-08-10, version 1.3.0*

The app is easy to use and great to be able to track your cab instead of calling and bugging dispatch. Would highly recommend for anyone in this metro region

### 5/5 — Discounts

*2023-08-05, version 1.3.0*

good afternoon, when will the discounts be available?))

### 5/5 — Simple, fast and sophisticated

*2023-07-24, version 1.2.0*

Been using it for a week and so far no issues whatsoever, the service is fast and on point. Thank you for the app.

### 4/5 — App problems

*2024-12-23, version 1.15.0*

I love this app it is honestly fantastic and so good. Sadly I believe there are still kinks to be worked out! I have been kicked from the app and cannot log back in my only option is to sign up again sadly I can’t because of my email! The only other issue I’ve ever had is the almost constant asking for phone number confirmation in my mind it is completely unnecessary.

### 3/5 — Almost missed it

*2023-12-16, version 1.7.0*

Driver was amazing, car was not at the correct location. Not his fault.  There are two locations on the same property that you will need to figure out.
