And I was a huge YC fan, but that's because we used it enough to have cabbies who recognized the name. That's not the case anymore, so it is much harder.

When I was in BR, I had several yellow cab drivers in my phone and I was a fan of using them. I would call and request one of them for bogies at 1:50 and I would have a ride by 2:00 or 2:05 at the latest and I always tipped well. However, if I had to call YC, complete opposite.

They are still new to the market and want to keep that clean image. That's why they refunded you. This is just the beginning of the problems we will see with this service.

Same. But I haven't been going out much anymore. And a lot of the ones we had are long gone.

I actually never had a problem calling them. I always knew to call before 1:30 if you plan on leaving before the bar kicks you out..but otherwise, it was fine because we called so often.

But lately, it's been much worse. Having to wait until 3:30AM in an extremely sketchy area of town was the worst.

I have zero desire to go out for Halloween Friday night like originally intended because I don't want to deal with the ride home.
