Hi Terri;

I have no problems with either app.

Once in a while I receive promotions from Lyft for 10 per cent off rides 
between 9 a

Hello all,


I know there have been many questions on this list, regarding both of

because I don't travel alone. Just a personal choice.

However, now I have some questions about both services.


First of all, is there a difference in the services?

Is 1 better over the other? I know that will be opinion. But sometimes
there isn't anything wrong with this.


Is 1 App easier to use than the other?

Now if I set up 1 of these Apps on my phone, do you always have to pay
with a card?

And if the App is on my phone, can I send an Uber, or Lift driver to
maybe pick a friend up, as long as the charges are set to my card?

Also, will you know ahead of time how much a trip might cost?

What does each App go by, when it comes to pricing?


Any help with any of this would be much appreciated.


Thank you,

Re: Questions regarding Uber, or Lift

2017-10-07 Thread Andy Baracco 
The answer to pretty much all of your questions is yes. i find that the 
services are pretty much the same, in fact many drivers drive for both 
services. I find the apps easy to use, but i guess that's a matter of skill 
level, self confidence, etc. Yes, you pay with a credit or devit card, and 
this info is given when you set the app up. Yes, you can make stops along 
the way. Yes, you can schedule a ride for someone else, but it will be 
charged to you. With lyft, you choose a tip amount, and it is added to the 
charge on your card. I believe that you can tip Uber drivers with cash, if 
you prefer.
Each company offers several ride options that vary with your geographical 
area. In large cities like L. A. for example, Uber and Lyft both have a 
shared ride service which saves you some money if you don't mind sharing the 
ride with another passenger. I find that the trips are intuitively 
scheduled, so you are not taken much out of your way to pick up and drop off 
the other passenger.
In some cities Uber has a service called Access which uses a wheelchair 
equipped vehicle, and the drivers receive additional training for serving 
folks with disabilities. i do not know if Lyft offers this service.
in some cities, you can schedule rides in advance. I know you can do this 
with lyft, not sure about Uber. The web sites for both are very informative, 
and will tell you which services are available in your particular area.
There is also a service for seniors called Go Go Grandparent, which allows 
you to order these rides by making a phonecall.
This service is offered by Great Call, You can call 855 464-6872 to sign up 
and order rides from this service. Note that there is an additional charge 
per ride when you use this service.

HTH!

Re: Questions regarding Uber, or Lift

2017-10-07 Thread Marie 
I use Uber here in Reno with great success and I have to question the 
treatment of their drivers. I have asked almost every driver if they have 
any problems with Uber and they say "No". And I tend to wonder if some of 
these rumors come from the taxi services who want Uber and Lift gone because 
of the competition. The services have certainly taken business away from 
them with good reason. Here, the Reno taxis are not as clean, and the prices 
are exorbitant so I don't use them but use Uber instead as many others do.
I live outside the ADA area so can not always depend on Para transit so Uber 
has made it so much easier for me to get around independently.

The apps themselves are of course free, whether one service is better than 
another may depend on your city. In some places the same drivers may drive 
for Lift and Uber.
Here in Canada Uber is only available in a few of the larger cities and I 
have used it in Calgary and the drivers were always very good, but at one 
point we went from our hotel to a mall using Uber and then going back we 
used a regular taxi, both times it was in the late afternoon/early evening 
when things were quite busy and the distance was not very far, maybe 2 or 3 
Km. In that example Ueber was more expensive because of their surcharge 
during times when there is high demand and of course there is all the bad 
press Uber has been getting because of how they are treating their 
employees, their drivers and some of the practices they have employeed which 
are unethical to say the least. They are suffering because of this right now 
with London having revoked their license and I think there is a chance they 
are getting kicked out of Quebec. Vancouver on the other hand is apparently 
going to start letting Uber come in this fall, at least that was the plan.

RE: Questions regarding Uber, or Lift

2017-10-07 Thread Lynda Ingraham 
Hi Teri, 

I recently started using Lyft and like it a lot. I have only had one friver 
that I rated less than 5 stars. She received that rating based on poor 
navigation skills. She had to make one right turn and drive for 1.5 miles 
straight to get to my house. With GPS, she got lost. 

Lyft will allow their drivers to accept their tips in cash. As far as paying 
the fare, yes, it must be paid through a card. 

You can schedule and pay for a ride for a friend on your phone. 

Both apps are pretty easy to use. You can put in the pick up and drop-off 
locations and then get an estimate. A car will not be sent unless you 
specifically tap on the button that says "request ride." I was afraid I was 
going to have a car sent when I was getting pricing info. Just be sure to not 
press "request ride" unless you really want a ride. 

I may be wrong about this fact. I thought that I read the background check for 
Lyft drivers is a little more extensive than for Uber. I asked two different 
drivers. Both said the background check with Lyft was more extensive. Again, 
not positive this is the case.

HTH

Re: Questions regarding Uber, or Lift

2017-10-07 Thread Anthony Vece 
Hi Terri;

I have no problems with either app.

Once in a while I receive promotions from Lyft for 10 per cent off rides 
between 9 a
M to 5 PM with Lyft.

Questions regarding Uber, or Lift

2017-10-07 Thread Terri Stimmel 
Hello all,


I know there have been many questions on this list, regarding both of 
these services. Unfortunately, I didn't keep up with the threads, 
because I don't travel alone. Just a personal choice.

However, now I have some questions about both services.


First of all, is there a difference in the services?

Is 1 better over the other? I know that will be opinion. But sometimes 
there isn't anything wrong with this.


Is 1 App easier to use than the other?

Now if I set up 1 of these Apps on my phone, do you always have to pay 
with a card?

And if the App is on my phone, can I send an Uber, or Lift driver to 
maybe pick a friend up, as long as the charges are set to my card?

Also, will you know ahead of time how much a trip might cost?

What does each App go by, when it comes to pricing?


Any help with any of this would be much appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri
