GBDrivers never showed up for two separate confirmed rides today. I booked two separate rides on CURB today and both were cancelled by CURB at the last minute and "rescheduled" several times and NO driver ever showed up for either resevation. We were going to and returning from an event. If CURB reservations cannot be relied upon, why bother to use CURB? Believe me, I wanted to use this service and not use UBER for lots of reasons, but it cannot be depended upon. The policy to let drivers cancel at the last minute must be changed.

GBTerrible experience with Curb Terrible experience with Curb. On June 5, 2023 I reserved a cab to drive us from midtown Manhattan to LaGuardia Airport, timely arrival being of the essence. Despite assurances from Curb that the cab would arrive as requested, a cab never showed. No one called; no one sought to contact us about any delay or problem. We were forced, at the last minute, to hail a cab from the street. When I reported the issue to Curb, I received no response beyond the generic claim that they couldn't be responsible for "no shows." I also noticed that I was charged $41 and change on my debit card, which was never reimbursed.

GBIt just doesn't work! Like many other reviews, I am disappointed that I can't give less than one star. When using Curb only to simplify payment, the transaction went through to my credit card but did not go through to the taxi company. They showed that they didn't receive the payment even though they could see that it went through to my card, and insisted that I still needed to pay them. I called the taxi company, Metro Cab in Boston, and they said this happens all the time and I needed to pay them and get the refund from Curb. I thought Curb would save time and money not cost more time and money. The taxi company told me I shouldn't use Curb and I suggested that they shouldn't advertise for it in their vehicles if they were going to force me to deal with a refund when it doesn't work. I will never use Curb again and would encourage all taxi companies to drop the system if they are going to dump the problem issues onto their customers.

GB1st time user- we were hit with a 30%… 1st time user- we were hit with a 30% up charge for van at MIA airport without notice for 2 person ride and tip would not allow custom amount - defaulting to 20%. Contacted Curb support without any luck for refund. Going back to Uber.

GBThis is an extremely misleading app This is an extremely misleading app. I used Curb for the first time yesterday. When I booked my ride the cost was shown as $19.00 and it’s temporary hold, was put on my card to secure that amount. When I got my receipt at the end of the ride, the final cost was $29.00! The base price was almost $20.42, not $19.00. Then there were taxes and fees, including a $1.00 fee to use the app (an “improvement surcharge”), totaling $4.00. Finally, my 20% tip was based on the final cost, including the $4.00 in taxes and fees, rather than the base cost. So it ended up costing significantly more than I thought it would be. They need to be a lot more transparent in their pricing structure.
