## Curb Reviews in United States

### ****- "Can’t tip retroactively"
The app works great, pairing is wonderful, but if I don’t put a tip before the ride ends, the driver doesn’t get a tip and treat me poorly when I leave. Uber and Lyft do it. I would appreciate a way to tip after the ride is over so that the drivers don’t think I shorted them.
-- M1boomer, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Not user friendly"
Every time it asked me to verify my phone number to open an account it will take me to the screen to type it. But it wouldn’t allow me to type anything! Furthermore, it will not allow me to book an account because I haven’t verified the phone number, but the stupid app will not allow me to type the phone number in!
-- FG superfan, 2024-12-21

### *---- "Cancelling rides"
You guys assign a driver that I waited 10 minutes for only for them to cancel. So you say hey we’ll find another and so I keep waiting (20 mins now since booking), don’t assign a driver, then you as in curb cancelled my request all together. So I go to try again and you raised my fair for the same trip. Back to uber and Lyft for me! And no tip if to the driver unfortunately because of you if you ever do assign me a driver
-- Bad business on curb, 2024-12-20

### *---- "The app GUI is garbage"
No realtime map updates and the cancel button doesn’t ask to confirm before cancellation. Also reserving a ride a day in advance doesn’t actually let them come any faster. We didn’t even get an SUV as we requested
-- chaostheory, 2024-12-19

### *---- "Taxi driver didn’t listen to our destination"
I asked for Fox car rental agency on 24th and he took us to a car rental depot.   He could have  taken us straight to the car rental agency and saved me an hour.   He took us to the depot where we had to wait for a shuttle to get to FOX CAR RENTAL.  DONT RENT FEOM FOX WHEN UOU GET TO MIAMI.
-- Here’s the truth:, 2024-12-19

### *---- "Tips"
Never set a default tip, as it needs to be earned, but once the ride ends you can&#039;t tip the driver. Can&#039;t imagine how many drivers lose out on tips this way. Terrible feature for an app.
-- MovieMazen, 2024-12-19

### *---- "Driver falling asleep while driving no accountability"
Driver fell asleep ON THE FREEWAY. I reached out to the company with his name and plate number. They said there’s nothing they can do and no refunds. “If there’s a problem perhaps you can contact a police department.” Totally reckless. Maybe like 10% cheaper.. but at what cost?
-- Nick, the name., 2024-12-13

### **--- "Constantly crashing or unable to bail"
Every time I attempt to use this app it crashes. I&#039;ve not been able to get it to work well in forever.
-- AAAME, 2024-12-11

### *---- "Do any of these devs even run user testing?"
You can&#039;t delete payment methods from the app. You can&#039;t switch a payment method when paired. The camera ocr for filling out the credit card doesn&#039;t pick up expiration dates. And on and on.
-- ilya_____, 2024-12-07

### ****- "Buenos servicios"
JFK.
-- 440Radioshow, 2024-12-03

### ***-- "Not a Taxi App"
Just so you know, this doesn’t just connect you to cab drivers but also to Uber style drivers too. I booked thinking I would get a quick cab at 5 AM but instead got a driver in a BMW. Nicer car, but slower and more confusing service, as the person had just rolled out of bed so it took them an extra 10 minutes to get there despite being listed as a minute away. No shade, everyone has to hustle I guess, but it wasn’t what I expected on this app.
-- jorwyn95, 2024-12-02

### *---- "UNRELIABLE"
a serious waste of time it’s infuriating
-- kfkdkjrneksid, 2024-11-29

### ****- "To updates"
Cheaper than others, but application need to be updated. Doesn’t allow on choosing terminal at the airport. Needed to take Lyft
-- nbfjdkkfkkc, 2024-11-20

### *---- "Way more than Uber"
My ride with Uber would have been about $110 all in with fees, not including tip.  I tried curb thinking a taxi should be cheaper and it wasn’t. Cost about $160 not including tip. Waste of money, stick with ride share.
-- Crazyapp1980, 2024-11-19

### *---- "Be careful"
This is not Lyft this is not Uber. This is an app for taxi drivers who have been known for scam people which is why Uber and other apps have been so successful. I should’ve paid for a $50 ride and ended up being 70 which is what the original taxi driver said he wanted until I said I have uber coming soon for 45 he said ok I can do 50 right now. When I downloaded the app, it set up auto pay the time I got out of the car. It automatically charge my card 70! He said oh sorry I forgot about all those fees even though earlier he told me the fees would be four dollars
-- aaroneasted, 2024-11-19

### *---- "Vehicle is in disrepair"
No shocks, no body bushings, whole vehicle rattled, van door didn’t shut all the way after driver pushed the close button , so we took off without door closed and locked 

Vehicle should not be on the road
-- blahblahguta, 2024-11-19

### *---- "Now completely useless"
It often didn’t find cabs before, but now it doesn’t work at all on business phones (assuming your company uses a VPN for security).
-- DtoDC, 2024-11-13

### ***** "So polite!!"
Tarsem was so polite and efficient. Got us to our destination promptly and safely.
-- bskcbd dhznsn, 2024-11-11

### ***-- "Worked in Chicago doesn’t in Ft Lauderdale"
Hi there, I loved using the curb app to get home from the airport in my old home of Chicago. Now I live in Fort Lauderdale, FL  and the app NEVER works. I pair up the cab with my phone, and at the end of the ride the driver gets an alert that the card has been declined. However I get a receipt saying that the payment was successful. Even when we tried to use multiple different cards manually it wouldn’t let the cards go through. I don’t know if this is a scam going on with the drivers to get cash or if there is a processing issue but either way I’m losing confidence in the app and don’t know who’s to blame. Even my husband had issues processing payments using a different card connected to the curb app on another ride. I’m visiting Chicago this weekend and will try again from the Chicago airport and additionally home from the Fort Lauderdale, FL airport to see if this truly is a locational adoption issue. I’d encourage someone from the curb team to just try and use the app in Miami or Fort Lauderdale to better understand my frustration because when it works it’s MAGICAL.

### *---- "more expensive than uber"
false advertising. definitely uses surge pricing. just paid $80 to get from astoria to jfk. used once then deleted.
