## Lyft Reviews in New Zealand

### ****- "Good service"
Lyft is always coming up cheaper than the main competitor, but wait times seem to be longer and have had more driver issues - I cuss that’s what you get for a cheaper service!
-- tashcsx, 2023-09-11

### ***** "Great App"
A great app which does everything you need it to and more. Much better than the local public transport applications in California
-- Milney12, 2023-03-29

### *---- "Impossible to cancel monthly membership"
Earlier in the year whilst visiting SF I got a monthly bay wheels membership. The actual bay wheels experience was great but cancelling my membership has been a nightmare. 

I have tried to cancel my monthly membership multiple times but I have been unsuccessful. My email and phone that are verified through Lyft have not been linked to any bay wheels account so I cannot access the account to cancel the monthly membership (which seems to be the only way to cancel based off the online guide). I have attempted to contact Lyft as soon as I realised that my membership was renewing but to no avail. Every time I email it links me to a webpage with information that is not helpful or useful. 

I have never left a review on the App Store before, but I feel compelled to do that so that I can please get some help to have this sorted. My boyfriend also struggled to cancel his membership and had to contact their twitter!?! 

Before you get a monthly membership (especially if you are a tourist) think twice!!!
-- Sarah Butterfield (NZ), 2022-09-21

### ***-- "Can’t see driver arrival route map"
This is a good app.  But it’s so frustrating not to be able to see the route the driver is taking to you - so you can be sure you are waiting in the best place.  Or to say if there are roadworks etc.  Uber is much better for this.
-- colin ln, 2022-08-06

### *---- "Scam"
On December 15th I was in need of a Lyft which would have cost $62.99 for a 3 seated car. I never confirmed my ride as I know longer needed one but it charged $304.42 to my account and when I email Lyft about my problem they were no help and are no longer replying to my emails.
-- stoner chad, 2021-12-20

### *---- "Need a contact center that works"
Can’t contact driver in whose car we left bags and have missed flights while waiting to try to contact driver and Lyft
-- lizzitremayneauthor, 2019-12-18

### *---- "Driver left without me"
The driver just started the app and left without me. I was charged and in the end I could not even get a ride with this despicable service. The next driver kept driving around the pickup point for 30 minutes until I cancelled it and used another service.
-- Warzixo, 2019-09-21

### ***** "First time"
Excellent service that is so easy to use. Very user friendly and way better than a taxi.
-- New Zeelad, 2018-10-23

### ***** "Best and most convenient"
Cheaper than the rest, and easier app to use.
-- jacko11990, 2018-06-21

### ***** "Great App"
Very easy to use and pleasant professional driver experience.
-- VirginiaNZ, 2018-05-31

### *---- "Don't waste your time if you're in NZ"
Downloaded from the NZ app store, took me through all the signup, including entering a NZ phone number, only to be told it doesn't operate in NZ, but I should get ready for my first ride anyway. 

How long should I wait outside?
-- ceeekay, 2018-05-14

### ***** "Thankyou"
Great service for getting around a city we are holidaying in
-- Jabba., 2017-06-02

### ***** "Very affordable price, highly recommended!"
Very affordable price, highly recommended!
-- Edwardxu08, 2017-05-16

### ***** "Great app, great service."
Easy to use, good service.
-- RichardChCh, 2017-03-04

### *---- "Not in NZ"
It doesn't work here in NZ as of Feb 2017 so why is it on our app store?
-- leighs name, 2017-02-01

### ***** "Awesome!"
Although it's a bit more expensive than uber, drivers are way more onto it and more capable of finding your location
-- Wsmccc, 2017-01-02

### ***** "We love Lyft"
My family (5pax) has been visiting the USA from NZ for three weeks. We have used Lyft extensively in LA, SF, and through out CA. 

We don't have Lyft in NZbut can't wait for it to arrive. The drivers are excellent, cost meets nz Xchange rate challenges and best of all their philosophy of community resonates with our values. Thanks Lyft.

Regards
Dave
-- syned, 2016-07-20

### *---- "Lyft no good for nz"
Doesn't let you enter your NZ mobile number making it useless here in New Zealand
-- Dougster123, 2015-01-22

### **--- "Some problems need to be fixed"
It says my New Zealand phone number is invalid I think because it starts with a 0 and it won't accept the country code + version either. And won't let me change my profile picture.
-- Dane Guardian, 2014-01-02
