User Reviews

User feedback on Blacklane is mixed. Many praise professional, punctual drivers, clean vehicles, and an easy, intuitive booking experience, making rides feel reliable and premium, especially in Europe and the US. A sizable portion of reviews also highlight strong service and frequent driver communication. However, recurring issues center on the app itself: reliability bugs, connectivity problems during critical moments, forced logins, and a number of interface/design changes after the Uber acquisition that some users dislike. Others question value and pricing, noting higher costs or changes in pricing. Service quality remains strong while the app experience and value perception vary.
Pros
  • Professional, punctual, courteous drivers with clean, high-quality vehicles.
  • Easy to use, intuitive booking process and generally reliable app.
  • Consistent, high-quality service across multiple trips and regions.
  • Good communication channels with drivers and support (text/phone), with regular driver updates.
  • Trusted travel with strong customer service and support.
Cons
  • App reliability issues and bugs at critical moments (e.g., frequent disconnects, 'no internet'/'BLToolKit' errors).
  • Login friction in the newer app (forced daily logins; issues with Apple password autofill).
  • Chat and in-app support features are broken or hard to contact (particularly in the new version).
  • Perceived high pricing or value concerns, including price sensitivity vs Uber and changes after brand acquisition.
  • Negative impact of redesign/branding changes post-Uber acquisition (ugly design, backward changes).

I’d avoid this service until they improve their business model. I booked my first trail ride from the airport to my home with my family. Unfortunately, the airline lost one of our bags. While in the middle of dealing with that, the driver said he had to leave since he had another booking. Of course, Blacklane insisted on charging full price without providing the service. No credit offered and no support provided. I would highly recommend staying flexible by booking with one of the rideshare services which can be cancelled and rebooked much more flexibly. Avoid this scammy service if possible.

Horrible experience. Road with them a few times over the week. Twice they forgot one of the car seats, and they had no backup plan, so my family had to split up and find alternative ways home. In both cases, their drivers lied and said they had both car seats, so we did not get a refund. Shows both poor ethics and a bad experience
