I walked to the rideshare section at LAX and decided to take a cab cause Uber was crazy with their prices but I should've known better....I was going to get scammed. I asked the driver how much to North Hollywood, he told me outside of the cab between 40-60 but it was really $87. Added a tip on top of that without my consent. Don't bother with this company. Not worth it.

Absolutely terrible driver tonight. Saw him select the longer route to my destination from the airport, and following along my GPS he literally went in the opposite direction and took the longest possible route before heading to my place. My bill was double what it was supposed to be, and I've taken this route many times from the airport. When I told the driver he took the longer route, he lied and told me it was faster which was wrong. Not only was it a longer ride, but a much further one resulting in me paying literally double what I was supposed to, and much more expensive than Lyft would

My mom took yellow cab the other day after Uber cancelled on her 3 times. Uber and Lyft have as predicted post IPO become so unreliable. Their strategy of trying to squeeze out the existing cab companies with lower rates initially and now higher rates is now a fact. These tech companies always claim doing good initially and when they cash out their true colors show. My mom had accidentally left her phone in the car and he turned around after he found it and went back and knocked on my moms door and gave it to her. The Yellow Cab driver was fantastic and the company needs to be recognized for doing

Awful and don't use them. They did not show up the first time and said they ran out of drivers. The next time I tried them the driver was 30 minutes late and went to the wrong address and called and argued I was at the wrong address. Lastly I got stuck at lax using them and he took the very long route. He thought I was a tourist and did not know the area

Stay away from these guys

Failed and pathetic business. Arranged a cab 2 days before my last flight out of LAX, told them to be there at 7AM sharp and they said no problem. Even called again the next day to confirm the pickup was arranged. Morning of our flight, 7AM nobody there. I call LA Yellow Cab and they tell me no one is available for our ride and they are "looking" for someone. I'm like, "how are you still looking for someone when I arranged this ride 2 days ago?" Some bs response about lack of drivers, gas prices, covid, etc. and I was told to call back in 15 min and they would probably

So I would think that actually being able to get a cab would be a key component when looking at admirable traits from any cab service. I would think that IF you were faced with extinction as I am sure many traditional cab companies have been since Uber and lyft changed the dynamic of Dayvto day travel but if you hoped to stay relevant you would on some level treat customers like you gave a f#%k. Well LA Yellow cab evidently cares not for these hallmarks of good service. What saddens me is that prior to tonight the last time I used LA yellow cab was pre Uber and why is that well glance at my experience

I lost my bag in a cab from LAX to my home and spoke with Wamiq who was able to track down the driver on my behalf. He let me know my bag was safe and that he would have it returned to me at my home. I had very expensive items in there so the customer service/reassurance that was given was amazing.

Booked a cab to the airport for 1pm. They didn't show, didn't call. We called 2 times to see where they were and they said they "were trying to find a driver" even though we had booked 2 days prior.

Horrific service ordered an Uber.

I called 24 hours ahead for a ride to LAX midweek, 8:45 in the morning. When the cab failed to show on time I called and an automated answering machine told me they were not yet able to locate a driver. I would have missed my flight if not for an Uber who arrived in 5 minutes. An added bonus, the Uber ride was 20% cheaper.

Booked a ride the day before a trip. Called in the morning to confirm and make sure everything was good to go. Customer service told me everything looks great and will be on time.

I'm waiting outside at my pickup time and no one shows up. I call customer service and they didn't have any clue. I asked them to see if they can give me an update or find a driver but apparently they work separately from "dispatch". Couldn't give me any status updates and told me that if dispatch couldn't find something in 30 mins they'll cal and refund me.

This is one of many reasons

Do not rely on LA Yellowcab for a ride to the airport! It looks like a common theme to reserve airport rides and drivers not show up. They were still looking for drivers at the time of pick-up. They could not offer any status update when I called. I ended up cancelling the reservation and taking two Lyfts for our group to avoid missing my flight.

Booked a cab last night for an airport run this morning. Didn't show up and 30 minutes later, still no driver. Best stick with the Ubers and Lyft folks if you need reliability.

On a Thursday afternoon, I booked a van for 5:30 the following morning to take my family to LAX. I received a confirmation email and text. The next morning, I received two texts telling me that my driver was en route. At 5:35, I called the company and was told that they had not been able to find a driver. As a result, we were forced to take a premium Lyft. Honestly, I booked with LA Yellow Cab, rather than Uber or Lyft, because I wanted to support a local business. Not sure I will do it again.

Unreliable. Cabs never came. Go figure why Uber and Lyft took over. What's the point of making a reservation??? Completely clueless company screwed over our plans.

I booked a ride to LAX the day before for 5 am
at 5.01 I called to check the status of my cab and they said that they were looking for it.
long story short I had to call my friend to drive us to LAX, the cab called me that was on his way exactly after 1 hour.
if my friend wasn't able to drive us we would have missed our international flight.
unbelievable and unacceptable

I never post reviews. But my pre booked uber flaked at 4am this morning when I had to get to the airport for an early flight and LA yellow cab came in under ten minutes to pick me up. The driver was helpful and drove me safely and helped with my bags- excellent service.

With three days advance reservations they still arrived 1 hour late causing us to miss our flight home from LAX. Stick to Uber or Lyft if you actually want to get to your destination on time.

This was an airport pick up. There was no line for a taxi so I went up to the first car. When I told the driver my destination he took my luggage without a word and put it in the trunk, so I got in the car. As soon as he starts to drive, he asks: "why not take an Uber?"

I reply simply because I didn't want to wait. He then quips: "well you have to pay a surcharge" - note that we're already leaving the airport when he says this. If he didn't want to take me why grab my luggage and drive away THEN say all these things???

By the way, I take the cab from the airport
