I took a Lyft ride to my Dr appt on Feb 13th at 915 AM..this ride was incorrectly listed on the GPS as 12th Ave, I needed to go to 12street. the driver corrected this, and I got there on time
Yesterday looking thru my Credit card statement, Lyfy snuck in 2 charges...one for 35.99 and one for 58.77..
I have fought this with Lyft and they say its all proper, BUT THE 2 RIDES THEY SAY I TOOK NEVER HAPPENED.
They are going in and billing folks for rides that never took place.
Lyft says the driver was ok and nothing was wrong and the fees stay, I didnt go anywhere at 8:30 at night,..Mosha the driver says yes...they are trying to charge me for a ride that was 2 blocks long, and 35 bucks ?
these ppl are flat crooks, the 58 dollar charge was 22.00...they inflated it wit another charge of 35.99
so, they are trying to collect on 2 rides for a total of 70 bucks..
I have disputed this and am filing a report with my bank
I encourgage anybody to think again by useing Lyft...they will sneak charges in on you as well...
Never sign up with Lyft nor download their FRAUDULENT APP on the app store (ios and apple stores) nor google play (android and chrome os).
1) On tuesday, May 02, 2023 at around 5:00 am I ordered a 2 stop/round trip ride from this fraudulent app for CAD $45.91.
2) I was then picked up by this VERY RUDE AND COLD IRANIAN DRIVER by the name of ”Hadi” who was short, a little overweight and dark-skinned driving A BLACKISH-GREYISH 2010ish NISSAN ROGUE in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada.
3) As soon as he dropped me off at my destination in midtown toronto (yonge and eglinton) he DID NOT DROP ME OFF AT MY ASSIGNED DROP-OFF POINT rather than he DROPPED ME OF AROUND 20 METRES AT MY DROP-OFF POINT
4) this guy PURPOSELY CANCELLED MY RIDE SO THAT HE COULD MAKE $CAD 38.93 from me and TO PICK UP ANOTHER PASSENGER FROM THERE
5) I then chatted with a LYFT A.I. customer service robot BUT IT WASNT VERY HELPFUL and only got charged CAD $36.83 as A SINGLE TRIP (if you add stops on your trips to either pick something up, then YOU WILL SAVE ROUGHLY LIKE 25% MORE, instead of being charged for 2 single trips).
***please take a photo of your driver and their license plate when using wither the lyft or uber app here in Canada and record all interactions with them, that way they cant be FRAUDULENT WITH YOU.
I had a doctor's appointment earlier today, and have been having some transportation problems, so I was set to use Lyft to get there....
Every day for the last week I have checked the price for the trip, and every day it was between $18 - $28. As such, I was prepared for the trip to cost me around $60 to get there and back, but then today when it was time to really request the actual ride to my appointment, Lyft was demanding $56 for a one way trip there. I thought this was extreme, but I had no choice, and booked the ride anyway.
I got to the doctor, completed my appointment then used Lyft again to get back home, but this time, just 30 minutes later, the ride was $18, which was a relief. I got home, and checked my Lyft app. to see that they had indeed charged me $56 for the ride there, which they deducted from my Lyft Cash balance, so I got in touch with them regarding the highly inflated price for the ride there. While chatting with the Lyft representative, I explained my situation, and they responded that 'after reviewing your case, we gound that you agreed to the $56 ride', and that they had determined it was legitimate.
Must be nice to be your own judge amd jury
The representative went on to explain that the increase in price could have been because of a 'surge in demand' at the time of the ride request', and that it was normal, as well as being my fault for accepting the ride at the price shown. I told him that the driver showed me his screen, and was only making $16 for the ride, but he just said the driver's payment has little to do with the actual cost of a ride, which further confused me.
I was livid by this time, and tried to explain that I had an appointment with a set time that I had to get to, but the representative just cut and pasted the same line about high demand times for ride requests, and that it was my mistake for accepting the ride at the price that was shown. As if I could just fly there instead, but my Superman cape is torn. This was strong arm robbery as far as I can tell, and I texted that I wanted my stolen money refunded immediately, but the representative just ghosted me, and left the chat session, as they tend to do whenever they know they are wrong!!
I met Erica Normandeau at a party. I was there with my sun. She said how cute my son was and then he grabbed his crotch and said, "i bet his little weewee is cute too. I was livid and she said, come'on he is 5. he won't remember it.
Lyft charged me $57 for what should have been a $20 ride. Been riding with Lyft for years. When there is a dispute you can't talk to anyone. Did reach someone on a line for issues with service animals who told me Lyft does not have a phone line for customer service.
So they get to ripoff people and there is practically no recourse since the Attorney General's won't go after them for small amounts.
Lyft is Fraud and Drivers are Abusive, Lyft is the worst driving corporation and there is no one to contact and I can not easily remove my credit card from the stupid app, its horrible. I got my kid a ride which only takes 30 minutes from Rowland Hts to Anaheim in California.
Lyft had the pops up after you call for a ride and pay for it, saying you can get a free ride, so I called to ask the driver who happened to be Erik to see if he knew how it worked he was verbally abusive, rude and said, "I don't give free rides", then hangs up on me. I never asked that, he also put his own 5 star because I gave no tip and NO RATING... I am really bothered that I can't remove my CREDIT CARD from their FRAUD app...this ride was ahuge RIP OFF LOOK AT THE PICS...
The vomit scam is considered old now and Lyft has come up with a new way to scam riders, no pun intended.
The coffee spill scam is the new vomit scam and costing riders hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. I have recently been the victim of this scam and Lyft refuses to deal with me at all. The driver got mad because I did not tip her and left her trunk open. The dummy sat in her car honking on the horn rather than getting her fat, lazy butt out and closing her own trunk. Furthermore, the driver arrived at my home, refused to get out and place two very light carryon pieces of luggage into the trunk of her car, and was nasty and rude when we said good morning.
At our drop off location, which was the airport, we said thank you, have a great day and the driver just looked straight ahead. We had to ask her to open the trunk so we could get our luggage out. Based on the driver's bad attitude, lack of customer service and taking a longer route to the airport, she received no tip. Lyft sends out review requests following each ride and when I received that email, I rated the driver as a 1. Due to this rating as well as the lack of tip, the driver waited a full day to make up a story about spilled coffee and filed a false claim with her employer--to which a charge against my credit card was made.
Subsequently, I received the same email as everyone else about "anecdotal evidence" and that I did not have any say in the matter. I was charged a $50 clean up fee for something that never happened. The lying, broke, opportunistic bottom feeder lied, stole and cheated her way to $50. Easier than working a real, respectable job. Take it from people like me.
I feel as though I have been robbed and to make matters worse, Lyft has a no due diligence, guilty until proven innocent policy. Why did the driver wait until after receiving the poor review to file her claim against me? Why were there no photos taken of the actual coffee cup showing a spill? The photos that Lyft customer service showed me only revealed dark spots with one spot appearing very old.
Lyft is running itself into the ground with lawsuit after lawsuit and will ultimately end up like Uber or worse. The company is guilty of false, deceptive and unfair trade practices and I refuse to let them get away with it. If this has happened to you, I encourage you not to give up because Lyft will not play fair. In fact, they will not even listen to you. You did it and that is all there is to it.
The root of the problem is the organization itself and the manner in which workers are paid. However, drivers are fully aware of the compensation structure of the work when applying for the job and have no right to complain about not making enough money. The other issue is this: drivers are forced to pick up people with money; people who look like they even have money and are jealous.
Who else could afford to pay $15 for a 3 mile drive to the airport but wealthy people such as myself? I am not going to leave my car at the airport, though. Plain and simple, green-eyed jealously! My most recent driver pulled up to my very nice home and saw a BMW and a Volvo in the driveway, plus both my mother and myself were sporting Louis Vuitton handbags. Yet, we gave the poor driver no tip.
Newsflash: poor service + longer route = no tip. Here's a tip for all of your starving Lyft drivers: go to college, get an education and change your bad attitude--perhaps then you may not have to resort to lying, stealing and cheating your way to a making a few extra dollars. I have no problem helping or feeding the poor, but not this way.
I am filing a police report for extortion and Lyft and Logan Green, you will not get away with this fraud.
I left my iphone on the back seat of Azamatxon'a car. I called and texted him several times and he never responded. He blocked me from texting him and shut off my iPhone. Lyft has no phone to contact them. I emailed them several times and was told they can’t reach him even though they pay him.
On Saturday I ordered a ride home from Lyft after having a few beers at the bar. What a mistake to use this crooked company Lyft!! They hit my credit card immediately, of course, saying the driver would be there in a minute.
I waited in the heat for 45 minutes. Lyft never showed up. So I had to walk several miles, AFTER paying for a ride with Lyft. However, this crooked company was not yet done with their dirty tricks. They then charged my card another $18 no show fee, when they no showed me!! They hide their phone number to avoid hearing from their clients, and I sent them countless messages that were never returned.
The Lyft App has a program where you can drive for them even if you don't have a car. They will gladly provide you a car through Hertz Rental so you can drive for them. They also offer bonuses that make the rental cheaper - these are all quotas that are impossible to meet and the app is engineered to make sure of that. Long story short: The entire program is a scam. Yes, you can make $500 a week driving for lyft, but after you subtract $250 a week for the car and $100 a week for gas. You are left with $150 a week in profit which is about $3.75 per hour. For me personally, I drove for 40 hours and averaged $2.50 per hour. I met all their quotas but because swipped the app off without turning it off first, I missed a pickup and lost the $50 bonus. Lyft is soo greedy they just had to pimp me that much harder. I hope this story serves as a warning to anyone who might be poor and vulnerable enough to consider driving for this horrible company -DON'T DO IT!!!
On 10/1 I requested a LYFT using the the app on my phone, it arrived and the driver was very patient and we (my cousin was riding w/me) arrived safely and in good time.
We exited the vehicle and when we got to the entrance and I was asked for my ID at the venue, I realized I'd left my phone case ( w/my phone, ID, debit cards and health insurance cards inside) in the back seat.
My cousin had no phone so I had to wait about 40minutes before I could use another cousins cell to download the app and reach out to customer service, to no avail.
They say that they can only send the driver a message but that the driver is under no obligation to repsond, as an independant contractor.
I tried for 5 days to retrieve my belongings through thier lost and found, no one has helped me, by this time I've replaced all my things but was still wanting the lost items because of identity theft being so rampant but no ones helped me.
I've since reached out to Indianapolis non-emergency police (because I feel like it became THEFT when the driver kept refusing to response to the messages from lost and found) but EVEN they won't help becuase I live in Minnesota and my flight home left 10/2!
This has been a nightmare and all I can think about is my identity being stolen. Please leave any helpful suggestions you have.
To add insult to injury they are trying to bill me for this nightmare ride from hell!
Being fired without notice or reason given. deactivated my account suddenly in the begining for the montth waiting to paid my rent no body will talk to you no place to defend your self holding my money untill they feel like to paid you. no lawyer will take my case as soon they heard against lyft . total detatorship their percentage too high almost 50% about what you made no medical or insurance what so over totaly crook bussiness. so be careful to be independent on theme or get financial load as buying a car or quit your job....!
On March 7, 2017, I was asked via email from Lyft, from which I had not heard of before, to submit an application to be one of their drivers. I have a lengthy history of professional driving and, being curious, I submitted an app. The qualifications were to have a vehicle no older than 2007, have insurance on the vehicle, an up-to-date registration, pass a limited DMV check and background check. After submitting all the requirements I continued to receive text messages from Lyft that My insurance wasn't checking out or I wasn't good looking enough in several pictures, continued requests for a copy of my Social Security Card and previous tax statements and bank statements. Even my birth certificate was requested, from which I obliged. I even sent in a copy of my title to my 2010 BMW. All of which to prove who I was. Again, Lyft requested even more proof of identity and by now I'm literally pulling my hair out.
Meanwhile Lyft had received my background check which was spotless on my DMV and the criminal check had come back that I had been confirmed of being convicted of a felony in April, 1990 (criminal check was dated March 15, 2017). I was 22-years old back then and I'm now 49 1/2-years old. Further, my rights have been restored by our Governor and the conviction was not sex, drug or violence related. Meanwhile, in those past 27-years, I have held a public, hazmat, CDL license and had not even received a speeding ticket. In short, I was convicted for not squealing on two acquaintances that were the bad boys of our community way back then but neither of which were violent by any means. My charge was "Complicity to burglary." Because I did not squealing I was told by the police I was just as guilty. I didn't have money at age 22 to obtain a lawyer. And because I believed those police at what they told me I had plead guilty. I found out later that I could not be held responsible for what another does or says. It could may of well have been in jest. So if your sister or brother you know, more than I would have known, has been driving intoxicated for an evening and gets in an unfortunate accident and someone loses a life are you guilty of murder also? Kentucky has no FCRA compliances and if you are guilty by association like me good luck. What Left has done is discriminate and Kentucky is holding the smoking gun. Civil right suite is sure to be filed as I have nothing better to do with my time because I cannot gain meaningful employment.
Never having used Lyft, I decided to try it...Pick up at my hotel in Palm Beach Gardens, FL. You provide your cell phone number, pick the time you want to be picked up, supply the destination (PBI airport) and then provide a credit card number. They say they won't charge you till after your ride.
So the next day I waited and waited and NO ONE SHOWED UP. You can not call LYFT and talk to a person. There is no way to confirm that you have already made a reservation and that, indeed, you WILL be picked up.
Local cab companies quoted me $35. LYFt suggested $17. Left in the lurch, with a flight to make, I had to use a local cab company last minute...for $45 plus tip.
Good by LYFT! You failed miserably, and lost a customer for ever!!
I was denied a ride on December 3rd from a Lyft driver. I asked if I would be charged since he was denying me the lyft. he claimed I would not and emailed Lyft about it, and I emailed how it was not the same person in the picture. Literally a month later they emailed me some BS on how to report it again, if it happens again??! God forbid if I would of got in that ride, and it was not even the person that was in the Lyft app. Check your riders before getting in the vehicle! Lyft just basically told me "mybad". Ugh!

LYFT and it's drivers honor stolen credit card numbers.
It's vertually impossible to talk to a person at corporate.
STAY AWAY FROM LYFT - THEY WILL STEAL YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER(S)

I tried for 5 days to retrieve my belongings through thier lost and found, no one has helped me, by this time I've replaced all my things but was still wanting the lost items because of identity theft being so rampant but no ones helped me.
I've since reached out to Indianapolis non-emergency police (because I feel like it became THEFT when the driver kept refusing to response to the messages from lost and found) but EVEN they won't help becuase I live in Minnesota and my flight home left 10/2!

So if your sister or brother you know, more than I would have known, has been driving intoxicated for an evening and gets in an unfortunate accident and someone loses a life are you guilty of murder also? Kentucky has no FCRA compliances and if you are guilty by association like me good luck. What Left has done is discriminate and Kentucky is holding the smoking gun. Civil right suite is sure to be filed as I have nothing better to do with my time because I cannot gain meaningful employment.

Never having used Lyft, I decided to try it...Pick up at my hotel in Palm Beach Gardens, FL. You provide your cell phone number, pick the time you want to be picked up, supply the destination (PBI airport) and then provide a credit card number. They say they won't charge you till after your ride.
So the next day I waited and waited and NO ONE SHOWED UP. You can not call LYFT and talk to a person. There is no way to confirm that you have already made a reservation and that, indeed, you WILL be picked up.
Local cab companies quoted me $35. LYFt suggested $17. Left in the lurch, with a flight to make, I had to use a local cab company last minute...for $45 plus tip.
Good by LYFT! You failed miserably, and lost a customer for ever!!
I was denied a ride on December 3rd from a Lyft driver. I asked if I would be charged since he was denying me the lyft. he claimed I would not and emailed Lyft about it, and I emailed how it was not the same person in the picture. Literally a month later they emailed me some BS on how to report it again, if it happens again??! God forbid if I would of got in that ride, and it was not even the person that was in the Lyft app. Check your riders before getting in the vehicle! Lyft just basically told me "mybad". Ugh!
