😭BEWARE, THIS APP IS A SCAM
😭Could never book a ride as every time there is an error or the service is full.
😭When asked for a refund, the customer service shamelessly says, refunds are not applicable under these circumstances.
😭City Link is an utter scam.
😭I have lodged a complaint with the consumer court.
😭Review
😭Extremely useless app
😭Ride showed available in 5 mins, then asked to add card and pay to wallet
😭By the time I did all that the ride was full and I never got to use that wallet money.
😭Tried using it later, got booking but data and time not real time
😭Had to wait for an additional 10 to 15 mins in the heat.
😭If I could give a negative rating to this app I would.
😭Worst service
😭If you’re planning to use this app, DON’T
😭It’s a waste of time and money
😭The seevice is absolutely worthless
😭When you book the ride it takes hours for the ride to arrive
😭Most of the times they are fully booked
😭It’s just waste of your money when you use monthly or weekly service
😭The customer service is way poor
😭They never receive your call
😭Reply you the same stuffs repeatedly in the message
😭Nil service regarding timings
😭They will never be on time
😭If you book even 2 hours before will still come 30 mins later
😭Don’t buy the monthly subscription I bought and I’m disappointed
😭Divya Anup
😭Very difficult to contact and to receive their service l.
😭They cannot share driver contact details also properly
😭Ride availability and customer service.
😭The monthly pass is 100% not worth it
😭They keep promising that they allocated a van close to you but you never get a ride.
😭Regretting that.
😭The other stuff or for a ride when available its fine.
😭Personally customer service gives you fake promises
😭Always delayed.
😭Poor service☹️
😭I could not even contact the driver
😭No one is picking up the phone for the customer service line.
😭Don't subscribe
😭Subscription is a pity way of cheating.
😭You will get vehicle upon their time, not yours.

😭Very bad customer service
😭Citylink is the Worst – Completely Unreliable and Frustrating
😭I’m beyond frustrated with Citylink.
😭Today I started trying to book at 4 PM, finally got a ride at 6 PM, and the pickup is at 7 PM.
😭That’s 3 hours of standing outside in this extreme summer heat.
😭Do you expect people to wait this long every single day?
😭And this is happening every day now — I’ve been suffering for a whole week, wasting 4 to 5 hours daily just to get one ride.
😭It’s mentally and physically exhausting.
😭To make things worse, for a morning trip to Al Barsha by 9:30 AM, Citylink expects me to book at 5:00 AM.
😭Are you serious?
😭What kind of service is this?
😭Do you think people don’t sleep or have lives outside this app?
😭Your service is a total failure.
😭No planning, no punctuality, no concern for the passengers.
😭Just false promises and a broken system that leaves people stranded every single day.
😭If you can’t handle the demand, stop misleading people.
😭Fix this broken system or shut it down completely.
😭It’s causing more harm than good.
😭Review
😭It’s a very convenient service but at the same time very difficult to get a shuttle on time.
😭Very Disappointing Service
😭We had a very frustrating experience with Citylink Dubai.
😭Every time we tried to book a ride, the slots were always fully booked, making it almost impossible to avail the service we paid for.
😭We had already purchased a package in advance, hoping for a smooth experience, but ended up being disappointed.
😭We eventually requested a refund since we couldn’t make use of the service, but sadly, no one responded.
😭It’s extremely unprofessional and unfair to leave paying customers hanging with zero updates.
😭Citylink really needs to improve their booking system, increase availability, and most importantly, respond to refund requests.
😭We would not recommend this service unless significant improvements are made.
😭Never on time
😭Tried booking through this app.
😭The bus will show the time but it will keep on extending
😭After waiting for so long you will end up cancelling the ride as you have to go home or office on time.
😭Wonderful Service
😭I had my first ride with Citylink & it was really convenient, on time and comfortable.
😭Recommend it to all who are looking for affordable rides throughout Dubai city
😭Worst ever algorith
😭My drop off location was near my pickup location.
😭Still they travel 20 minutes far away from me to pick up another customer that is opposite side of my drop off location.
😭The worst ever algorithm they have.
😭I lost my time believing in them.
😭Don’t ever use this app.
😭Disappointed with the Service
😭Hi, I’m extremely disappointed with the service lately.
😭Even when I try to book a cab 45 minutes in advance, I’m still unable to get one.
😭Today it’s been almost 3 hours of trying with no success.
😭This isn’t a one-time issue — it has happened multiple times.
😭Please look into this urgently.
😭Very bad
😭The location not match the apps and very slow response .
😭Apps coming but van was to far and not moving .
😭What a waste of time to booked to your apps very very bad experience
😭Service
😭Good service
😭app take me to fake location
😭i was going to ibn batuta bus station the bus station we all know and use
😭The application take me to dubai mall where someone make fake location called it by same name
😭i paid the trip and also i went to completely different place
😭Poor service
😭Waisted 30 minutes under the sun in waiting for the driver,
😭No updates on the app, drivers do not respond on call, pick up time keeps changing, ultimately driver didn’t show.
😭Waisted time
😭Waisted money
😭Waisted energy
😭Poor service, poor communication and worst customer service
😭The customer service is so rude, careless and shameless.
😭Not even listening to customers concerns
😭Very Disappointing Experience – Not Recommended
😭I booked a cab through City Link today at 12:30 PM, and shockingly, the cab only arrived at 1:55 PM.
😭That’s nearly an hour and a half delay with absolutely no proper updates or communication.
😭To make matters worse, the driver was extremely rude, showing no sense of responsibility or apology for the delay.
😭I tried reaching out to their customer care via WhatsApp – no response.
😭I even called them multiple times, but again, no answer.
😭This kind of service is completely unreliable.
😭If you’re looking for a dependable ride, I strongly suggest avoiding City Link.
😭There’s zero accountability, no customer support, and a frustrating overall experience.
😭Amazing and Affordable
😭Great ride and highly recommended
😭Booking a trip is a nightmare
😭The first few rides were great.
😭I decided to subscribe for a month so that will be a cheaper option for me.
😭But as the days pass by it’s getting harder to book a shuttle going home and can’t even book it later.
😭I’ve had multiple times that I secured the booking but they will cancel as the driver has another task to do.
😭I would love to recommend this once the developers sort their system
😭Don’t bother using
😭Not a good platform.
😭Better use “RTA Bus on Demand” for UAE.
😭Bad service, routing technology is so poor, doesn’t deserve to be of UAE standards honestly.
😭Amazing Drivers!!!
😭Highly recommended! Thank you Moozah and Abdulla for the safe ride!
😭Poor service
😭The will chose the pick up location different than you mentioned, not recommended.
😭FEEDBACK
😭The ride is very convenient how ever the pick up point is very far from my house and it’s actually along the road side only
😭Before going to the pick up point if they could put much nearer pick up point I would purchase the 1month plan
😭But because of the weather it won’t be possible to walk 11 mins on the sun
😭Disappointing Experience with Citylink Shuttle Service
😭I had high hopes when I subscribed to Citylink Shuttle Service for a month for my family, but it has been a frustrating and disappointing experience throughout.
😭Booking a ride is a nightmare — the app/system often doesn’t work properly and we’ve consistently had to wait over 2 hours just to secure a booking.
😭Once booked, the ride itself takes excessively long — more than 1.5 hours to reach even nearby destinations due to inefficient routing.
😭Drivers seem uncooperative and consistently choose traffic-heavy roads instead of faster alternatives, with no regard for passenger time.
😭Customer service is just as poor — they rarely respond to queries or concerns, and it feels like there’s no accountability at any level.
😭I honestly feel fooled into buying a one-month subscription, and I regret trusting this service for my family’s daily commute.
😭Citylink seriously needs to improve its booking system, train its drivers on efficient routes, and most importantly, provide reliable customer support.
😭Until then, I would not recommend this service to anyone.
😭Highly disappointing services and waste of time and energy
😭Worst service ever!
😭Customer support is highly unprofessional and they don’t even care to respond to your calls and they don’t have any solutions for any issues!
😭Arrival estimated time is too long
😭Even though the booking is made prior to time the arrival is taking too long .
😭The driver says that they have to follow the map and take the longest way which is in traffic .
😭It is very frustrating for us as we are company employees and we are reaching late regularly for work.
😭It is not a good service at all
😭The pickup and drop time duration is fake .
😭I have the screen shots as a proof.
😭I would not recommend to any of my friends about this service.
😭Poor services in UAE. WORST TIMINGS AND NO PROMT RESPONSE.
😭People in company will pick up your call once then they will not answer any call.
😭Very poor service i have called couple of times.
😭I have waited for 1 hour still no shuttle is available.
😭Highly disappointed.
😭Best of best
😭Amazingly best
😭Incompetent system organisation
😭The system was extremely slow and flawed
😭I made a mistake where i booked for one passenger, instead of two , but then i cancelled it, booked for two, but the system was extremely poor and slow
😭And the driver was not able to fix the issue correctly
😭Making Fools Only
😭Today only i took subscription from this app morning it was fine but in evening i was trying to book ride i got confirmation but there no pickup
😭And i called customer care as well and they said driver is coming in 2mins this and that till now i waited till 1:30hours still there is no ride
😭They are making fools only,so trust this app at your own risk..
😭RELIABLE AND COMFORTABLE
😭Smooth transaction and ease of daily ride
😭Comfortable trip
😭Impossible to book a ride
😭I used the service for a few times and everything was good then i decided to purchase their monthly subscription and the problems started.
😭It became impossible to book a ride.
😭I contacted the support after one hour trying to book and they assured me that a bus was coming to my location in 15 minutes, after 45 minutes i was sill not able to find a ride.
😭When i contacted the support again around 6:15 they told me to book after 7 because the riders were on break.
😭In the end i had to took a taxi…
😭Plus whenever there is a problem instead of trying to fix it they will just send the same copy-paste message of apologies.
😭I don’t think I’ll renew my monthly subscription and it’s a pity because the idea is very nice but really badly managed.
😭Review
😭I tried the app today and it is really good.
😭Arrived on time, and it is very accessible from my home and to my work.
😭It picked me from a place very near from my home and dropped me in front of the work door.
😭Delayed service
😭Always 30 to 40 minutes delay every time I booked.
😭We use this service to go to work and back and these delays makes it so difficult.
😭Need this to be reviewed or else wont be opting this service for longer.
😭Had plans to take monthly subscription.
😭Arrival and Destination Time
😭Committed timings are not meeting as expecting while picking 20 mints late and destination time again 15 mints more as promised
😭very nice and respectful drivers
😭had a great experience, it was my first time and definitely not last! the drivers are so nice snd super respectful god bless them 💕
😭Amazing!
😭This service is amazing, highly recommend.
😭This is better than good

App fine, service unreliable

When you absolutely have to be somewhere on time, use other transportation. Constantly receiving “due to unforeseen circumstance” pick-up is delayed, sometimes by a couple of minutes, sometimes longer, sometimes delays compound so its more than 40 minutes later than first advertised. If the algorithms and AI worked this would be a great service. As it is, I’ve got time to write long reviews like this waiting for my delayed pick-up.

The app is scam

It always show the cab is available and when you refill your wallet and try to book the cab it tells you its fully booked
