Clean car, friendly driver who greeted me AND the toll booth attendee with a genuine "Good morning" despite the ridiculous 4 am pick up time. The dispatchers were helpful and my car was on time. I paid $45 from Inwood to Laguardia, which was a bargain compared to what I paid earlier in the week. I'll be calling First Class next time I visit NYC. read more

do not get any cabs from here ! everyones car smells like cigarettes ! the dispatcher is only respectful to spanish people ! nobody talks english ! no cars are ever available! read more

I have used this car service for years now. I want to support my local cab company. I am satisfied with their service...most of the time. Nothing is absolutely perfect. Some drivers are very good, and some others can be rude and don't listen to you...particularly if you are female. My disgust is mostly with their app. It does not always work for me. I a not sure why. The dispatchers are the rude ones...they do not let you talk to them. They will hang up before you get a chance to say anything, but I have also experienced this with other cab companies. It is rude, but this seems to run throughout the whole industry of using cabs and taxis. read more

First Class Car & Limo Service - The company logo. - Limos Near Me - New York, New York

My mother was injured when the driver began moving the vehicle before she was fully inside, causing her to be dragged. We requested the driver's license plate number and identifying information from the transportation company, but they refused to provide it. We are requesting that TLC investigate and identify the driver involved. read more

This is the worst car service i have ever experienced in my life! I was waiting for over 2 hours to get picked up and when i would call some guy would make up a bunch of lies stating that the car was coming and they never did. I hate this company and everyone in it. read more

First Class Car & Limo Service - Limos Near Me - New York, New York

I always you First Class Car and Limousin Service. I love this car service. The driver I had today was named Jose. He came to pick me up from Western Beef Supermarket. He was the funniest driver ever. He was an older man, but the drive was safe and great. We laughed all the way to my destination. I recommend First Class Car and Limousin Service. The drivers are great and so are the prices. read more

See all

I am very disappointed with First Class car service. I had an medical appointment this morning, I had an pickup at 8:15am. I called to confirm my appointment, I was informed that they were working on it. Okay fine, I called back several times, still waiting. My pickup was at 8 am. Unfortunately I had to take an Uber. PLEASE BE INFORMED THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. THEY GET A ZERO .... SERVICE SUCKS... read more

Freddy my driver picked me up from the emergency room to my apartment. I could barely walk and didn't have any cash on me. He drove me to an ATM near my house to obtain the cash. Although I could barely walk and was in pain Freddy was kind and considerate of me and escorted me on his arm to help me walk to the ATM location and back to his car. He dropped me off at my house and escorted me again to my elevator. Freddy is the most kind and compassionate driver I have ever had help from any driver of mine. Please First Class give Freddy a raise. read more

Worst f******* car service EVER!!!!!!! Waited 40 mins for 1 taxi.I'll give this car service-10

Very happy. Driver on time. Vehicle was clean. Perfect in every way. 8 out of 5 stars. Courteous and accommodating when asked to go back to pick up passports. read more

My Mom's insurance company scheduled her a ride to the doctor's appointment. She waited for them and called to verified they were coming. They told her to be patient and wait. They never showed up and lied that the car was there earlier. Good thing my Mom called her insurance company and they also called the service to confirm a car was on her way. They never showed up My mom ended up missing her import test. Unbelievable! read more

They used to be my go to. Now I just feel like they are crooks and cab drives who over charge you for anything.... literally ANY LITTLE ILLEGAL CHARGE their little minds can conceive. For instance an extra charge to use the trunk? Pardon my French but I don't f-*cking think so! No wonder they are loosing business to Uber and Lyft. Don't waste your time. Worst of the WOSRT! Never again!!!!! read more

Extremely unprofessional, I walked up to the window to request a taxi and there was an old white woman at her desk which rudely told us no, their taxis could only seat two people. We then proceeded to ask if we could request and SUV and she shoos us away with her hands and continues to ignore us which was really irritating. She then looks at us through her window and sees that we are extremely upset at her poor professionalism and barges out of the office and asks us what our problem is. She then went on a rant, using profane language and telling me to go F myself which I recorded and will be posting on social media. This woman needs to be fired immediately. read more

First Class Car & Limo Service - This is the disgusting dispatcher who started the altercation. - Limos Near Me - New York, New York

I would have selected zero if I could. I recently reserved a round trip with them, they did drive me one way but when I called for the return I was first told 'a driver will call you directly' A half hour later, "we are still working on it", at the 45 minute point the last person tells me this gem: "We do not have any driver who wants this run, what do you want me to do about it?" Needless to say I will never use them again! You don't have driver who wants to get paid? That makes no sense. In this economy. I mean give me a break. To give you perspective: I have been with this service exclusively for three years, using for a mix of medical transportation and non-medical/personal transportation. Last year my insurance wanted to switch me to their preferred provider and I literally fought this asking for supervisor after supervisor. Throughout the years I have bad experiences (they are fond of packing strangers in the cars especially on Manhattan runs, one time they packed 5 people like sardines in a Toyota Camry small car - NOT van, and then I was picked up first, was quiet and the rude and angry passengers got dropped off first despite the fact I was picked up first and closer to the exit on the highway - he said 'oh you have to deal with it. and also told me how everyone will get billed separated for the same amount), but nothing like this one. I guess this was the straw that broke the camel's back. That day in question I called my insurance who gave the call to Premium Radio Dispatch to see if they could come. Not only did they not show, but both me and my insurance provider kept getting busy signals. After a very long wait of over two hours, I asked my insurance to reach out to Agape. They were there in under 11 minutes! The driver was polite something I haven't experienced with First Class. Guess who just lost this customer? While I was waiting for both of those cab services, I literally witnessed Agape drivers arriving well before the patients came down to the lobby. I didn't see any of their patients waiting for a driver. So I am going to switch. DO NOT BOTHER WITH THIS TAXI SERVICE. read more

The worst taxi service I've ever used. I got assigned to this car service to get to my medical appointments. Going to the appointment, the driver was late. She arrived at 2:20 for a 1:30pm scheduled pick-up. Coming BACK from the appointment my scheduled pick up was 4:30 pm and I'm still stuck at the hospital at 6:27. I just got off the phone and at almost 6:30 they said they were STILL looking for a driver. So I'm waiting at the hospital surrounded by sick people during a pandemic for 2 hours AFTER a pre-scheduled trip. Awful read more

I was recommended to First Class from a friend who also lives in the same neighborhood. I called twice over the phone to get the rate to JFK from west Harlem. The first time I called they confirmed that the rate was 65.00. When I returned home I called for a second time to book the reservation. At this time I asked for them again to confirm the rate. Again they confirmed the rate was 65.00. The car service did arrive on time. The driver pulled up and did not offer to assist me with putting my luggage in the trunk. At this point I managed by myself. I figured the driver was not motivated and perhaps he wasn't concerned about a tip. 30 minutes later we arrived. The driver said the fee was 75. I explained to him that I was quoted 65.00 twice by the dispatcher. The driver called dispatch and continued to challenge the 65 vs 75. At this point I told the driver that I was going to file a complaint. He continued to challenge the 65 vs 75. In all First Class was trying to scam me. I will never use or recommend their service. Further more they are a dishonest service and not trustworthy and they are most likely violating the law. First Class should change their name from First Class to NO CLASS. Never again. read more

Horrible company - stay away. We arranged for a medical transportation through them, they delivered the patient there and plain refused to pick her up for over two hours. Every time we called they told us they will call us when the driver is on the way. This has been going on for over two hours and the driver never came. They just left the patient at the doctor's office and disregarded the responsibility to pick her up. If you value your time and well-being please stay away from this service. I made a complaint with Medicaid as well. read more

First Class is absolute garbage. Each time I call them I wind up waiting more than 30 minutes for a car and have to call multiple times. Their app is useless and often doesn't have cars Available. Their drivers and dispatchers are rude and unprofessional. read more

First Class cars and SUVs regularly idle outside my building honking at everyone who walks by...at 7am! They park in front of fire hydrants, in bike lanes, in commerical parking lots and double park, disturbing the flow of traffic and putting people at risk. This behavior has gotten worse in 2010. I have used them in the past, but will not be using them anymore. I encourage everyone to use only car services that respect the people and neighborhoods they serve. First Class certainly does not! read more

Terrible service. They left an autistic sickly woman standing in the street and never came to pick her up. Hours later they called to say they were ready to pick her up. After seven in the evening, three hours late. In the midst of a heat wave,almost99 degrees. They are a dangerous outfit. read more

N E V E R A G A I N W I T H F I R S T C L A S S. They WERE good. I left a really nice review last year. Now they are crap to me and I will never use their service again. 3 times with different drivers I have wanted to jump out of the car. EACH time I've called to explain (as rationally as possible) the various problems with the service, and spoke to "Jenny", the supervisor.... She has not once offered any true customer service, simply telling me that in the future I should request drivers in a specific way so I don't run into these problems anymore. SERIOUSLY?! So now according to Jenny I need to: * ask for someone who takes credit card * request someone who speaks even a moderate level of English * request someone who either knows where they are going and/or will use their GPS to figure it out * ask for the rate for my destination (because the drivers never seem to know and ask ME to call in for it) I had a REALLY important meeting this morning. I allowed plenty of time for my timely arrival, yet the driver was totally incompetent, refused to use his GPS, didn't know where he was going, didn't listen to me in English OR to my colleague who spoke Spanish! 2 blocks from where I needed to be in Brooklyn, he got us all turned around and then took the ramp onto the f-ing Brooklyn Bridge BACK to Manhattan. We were yelling "No! stop" - but it was too late. Because he just did whatever he wanted and only getting on the bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn did he FINALLY turn his in-car GPS on....stating he didn't know how to find "Brooklyn" on it. I'm sorry. What? That's a driver?? I was over 30 minutes late for an appointment I would have arrived right on time for if he hadn't have done that. I called the car company (First Class Car Service) and they wouldn't even discount my fare. At the end he apologized and charged me $5 MORE than what the supervisor told me the fare would be. Um, I guess. Now each time I book they tell me I should have to go through the ridiculous list to request what I think should be standard/basic services offered for a car service?? I should have to do all this so I don't have to navigate in the back seat while the driver either (doesn't listen to me, has the radio blaring, is just choosing to ignore me, or can't understand very simple phrases like "please exit here")??? I am SO DONE with First Class Car Service. I signed up for Uber today and took them on my return home. The ride was efficient, the driver was courteous and the charge at the end was almost the same what I paid for the crappiest ride of my life with First Class. N E V E R A G A I N W I T H F I R S T C L A S S. They are no class now in my book. read more

I've lived up in Inwood for the past 5 years. I will only use First Class when I need to go to the airport from here. I've never had anything but courtesy when I've called, being put on hold doesn't bother me (the people on here that griped about that obviously aren't used to the Dominican car services, which also are the local taxi service, so they are very busy fielding calls for local trips). The cars are always pristine, smell nice, courteous and knowledgable drivers who drive well & get you there on time. And they always show up. When I lived downtown and used Carmel and All State, I was lucky if they actually showed. A word to those using Inwood car services in general: they are the local taxis. If you don't need something specific, hail one on the street. Know what the reasonable price is for the location you're traveling to, and always ask how much they are charging before you get in the car, because some are rip offs. Some of those will recant when you refuse to get in. You can bargain with these guys. But be fair in your bargaining because they are trying to support their families & work pretty darn hard to do so. read more

Like with any car service, there is no point trying to talk to them on the phone. They are too busy fielding calls and no matter what you ask will always answer with "Ok, two minutes". That said, the cars do show up within two minutes and the drivers are great. Used them a lot when my wife was pregnant and they were just fine. I found them a little pricey for longer trips but at least unlike Carmel they don't hit you with that uptown service surcharge. read more

I thought I'd give this place another shot. I remember using them a lot back in the day. I give a 1-star and I'm being generous. Horrible customer service over the phone, long wait times, and when you get someone to answer, they put you back on hold. The ladies that answer the phone are so rude as well, don't expect much. And the cars are not the same comfortable cars they use to provide in the early 2000's. Why pay more if I can get better service with Lyft or Uber? Yeah, I'm done. Trate de darle una oportunidad a esta base. Me acuerdo que usaba mucho a su servicio. Pero le tengo que dar 1 estrella, y eso es siendo generoso. El servicio al cliente por el teléfono es horrible; larga espera y cuando te contestan, te ponen en espera otra vez. Y se te contestan unas de las muchachas, no espero mucho. Son más inútiles y ruda que cualquier cosa. Y los carros ni son tan cómodos como los que recuerdo de los años 2000. Para que pagar más si consigo mejor servicio con Lyft o Uber? Ya, termine. read more

NEGATIVE 100 stars!!!! This place should close down! give someone else the spot to actually work! On rainy days don't bother, NEVER has cars available ( to busy working for Uber) had a 12:30 pick up reservation got picked up @1pm, it was there lunch time!? had a 5:30 reservation for pick up from a doctors appt, called and was told I'd be called back WHEN a car would be available..............!!!! had to walk home after 45 mins of waiting! then an hour later the car calls to say HES waiting...... then I call the base I get asked " where were you???? I said I was at the same destination awaiting YOUR call back that NEVER came. I'm walking home now. Then the dispatcher (male) the female already hung up on me the very first time calling! tells me I'm being rude for not answering his question, all he's trying to do is help me............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????? and hangs up on me. Then 10 mins after that another call from a different driver telling me he's also been waiting! waste of time using this cab service for medical transportation appointment! (I'm learning to walk again, had no walker or wheelchair.) the whole reason to make a reservation!!!!!!!! from 5:30 I got home at 8pm I live 20 mins away from hospital. CALL AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!! oh yeah and I live close to them!!! What a joke!!!!! Hahahahahahahaha read more

We had an early morning flight out of JFK on Friday. We reserved a car pickup for 445am on Friday. The driver was five minutes early. The car was clean. Arrived in great time for the flight. The cost was less than was quoted by Lyft and Uber. read more

My friend had to move from a sublet on 207th and Isham to another sublet on East 7th between B+C. As I contemplated the nomadic nature of living in NYC we called First class. We inquired if they had a mini-van or SUV they did. The SVU arrives-shiny, sparkling with a suit clad driver who helpfully shuffled some items as we loaded them. The cost for this was $60 maybe steep but he was so pleasnt, the SVU so clean and the drive down the FDR so pleasing. We did have to deal with the people on the phone who were pleasant but there was a mild languge barrier. It all worked out. I would recommend First class to people in the area with the caveat that I think our experience was out of the ordinary. read more

Pros: They take credit cards, it's clean and cozy and air conditioned Cons: There's no standard rate to the airport (I read a Yelper saying they paid $45 to get to LGA from Inwood, so I said that - he said it was $57, I said "well I was told 45" he said "well see there's a $5 fee" I said "that would make it $50 not $57" he said "it's $53" I said "including tip?" he said "no." - now THAT'S some great dialogue, folks. feel free to use that in your next theatrical event. The driver was nice though. Just way too expensive, ya know? Sigh. It took less than 20 minutes to get to LGA (which is great! but half the time it took for a car service to LGA from Prospect Heights, and paid $33 on average.) Oh tedium. read more

Aarrrrgh! I booked a car last night for 5 AM. At 5 AM I'm outside and no car! Fortunately I padded my trip in the event of traffic but 16 minutes late is unacceptable. I could have been to the airport in a little more time than that! Apparently the dispatcher booked my reservation for the wrong day!!! Word to the guy on the phone: telling me three minutes every time I call does not help my situation or my disposition! I added a star because the driver was pleasant in the face of my ire and tried to get me to LGA on time...he failed. read more

Use to be my favorite car service. In the past six to eight months I don't know if they changed management or owners but they have completely lost me as a customer. They are completely unreliable their customer service is non-existent they overcharge and the drivers barely speak English. I would not recommend to anyone to use this car service. They accidentally charged my card twice and I've yet to receive the refund 13 days later read more

Good local car service for the Inwood and Washington Heights area. I call them when I know I'll need a car even though I could go hail a livery on the street. it just feels safer and these guys usually give me good service. They offer airport service as well at not bad prices. Certainly comparable to all the other neighborhood places. read more

for the nice service on the phone alone, these guys are the best in the hood...and she actually let me make a reservation for 5am the next morning. the other guys are like "call tomorrow morning"...click... clean cars, nice drivers, and they brought us home from williamsburg one night for like $40...i'm never using anyone else in wahi. read more

This is the only car service I will use. Their cars are always clean, in great condition on the inside AND outside, and the drivers are polite and friendly. I usually end up conversing with them for a while, and they usually end up knocking a couple of bucks off the fare for a good chat. The phone people are sweet, they always show up at my door in two minutes, and the drivers drive safely-NOT like some madmen I've had from other companies (or Yellow Cabs) who zoom, swerve, and curse out other drivers loudly. First Class doesn't stress me or themselves out like that. They have SUVs and will do airport trips for the most reasonable rate around. I recommended their service to my mom, a world class worrier, because I knew they'd take care of her and offer her a pleasant experience. I highly recommend First Class! read more

I got a limo from this place for my prom, (way back when) and they were great. Super cheap and super easy to deal with. It was a hike heading all the way up to the heights, but totally worth it. Most car places are a complete rip off, so I would send anyone I know here for a car or limo read more

Used app to call a cab. The cab never arrived, but the app stated he was on location. In less then a minute, the app stated that the cab picked up and completed trip. The cab never showed up. Called the dispatcher. All he said was, I will send you another cab. No, thank you! Worst cab service in the area! read more

The worst, 2 hours late for a pickup, and the same going back. I will never use them again. dispatch is nasty and non informative!

2 stars - we did not reserve a car service - they flagged us down when we were waking to the taxi line @ JFK Pro: takes credit cards, clean, fast CONS: (1) they told us "same price as regular taxi - $65 from JFK to UES". IT WAS NOT. it was $65 JFK to UES, plus $15 for toll (usually only $5), plus $5 for credit card fee (total of $85) (2) they lied to us when they said they were UBER so I couldnt get my AMEX cash back (AMEX had a deal where if you use uber and spend $50 or more, i get $20 back). bottom line? i would use a cab. it had all of the pros (takes credit cards, clean, fast) but without the hidden expenses. (used NYC Taxi from UES back to JFK and they only charged me $63.38 including $5 toll and including tip) also wanted to point out - our driver did not speak english well (we had to repeat "1st and york" over and over again) and while he was driving we were looking at google maps on our phones and he passed our block by 3 blocks before getting to the correct destination (one way streets) so seemed like he didnt know where he was going. read more

SUPER FAST! Rapdio. Spacisous and Clean. I ve been taking cabs in NYC for over 20 Years and no one beat 1st Class in Washington heights, Inwood, and Marble Hill. For Uptown and the Heights this is the Cab service for me. I could care less if they spoke Martian, My Cab is always waiting for me and on time. read more

Used 1st class from Ezoo all the way to Jamaica LiRR station. Asked the driver multiple times to confirm rate and he said 80$, the next day when I checked my bank account I was charged 120$, OUTRAGEOUS!! When I called the company the customer service lady was absolutely rude and said there was no trace of my transaction. Horrible company, you should be put out of business. read more
