However, recurring complaints center on pricing: overcharging, price discrepancies, and misleading discounts. Customer support and issue resolution are often slow or inadequate. Delays and long wait times, plus occasional app malfunctions, also appear in multiple reviews. In short, the service is convenient and safe, but pricing practices and support responsiveness are the most consistently reported drawbacks. ### Pros - Reliable rides and consistent service - Easy to use app with quick booking and fast pickup - Smooth and comfortable rides with safe drivers - Generally positive app experience and good service quality ### Cons - Pricing issues including overcharges, price discrepancies, and misleading discounts - Poor customer service and slow resolution of problems - Long wait times and reliability problems (delays, missed bookings) - Occasional app performance issues (app not working properly) ## Similar extensions and apps - [RIDE TAXIS](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.riide.deltataxis) — 137,418 users - [Tap & Ride - Request a ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tapandride.rider) — 152 users - [Urban Rides : Bike-Taxi, Auto](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.urbanride.user) — 4,165 users - [OpenTaxi - Request a ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.viva.indytaxi) — 7,866 users - [City Ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.cityride.passenger) — 509 users - [nextRIDE - Request a Ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.nextridecustomer) — 3,793 users - [UR Ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.urride.passenger.app) — 50 users - [Bee On Time - Request a ride](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.bee_on_time_taxi.customer) — 2 users - [MXUber](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mxuber.user) — 6 users - [RIDE: Rides & More](https://chrome-stats.com/d/ride.cambridge.city.uk.taxi.passenger) — 348 users - [RideShare](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fiv.rideshare.user) — 134 users - [Urban Cab](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.urbancab) — 8,338 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ubercab)
