We used this taxi to get from our terminal to a hotel. We were assured by the driver we could…read moredepend on him to pick us up the next day. He did not show up and would not answer our calls. We were sent a text message that they were sorry but they weren't in the area. That's a problem because we are truck drivers on a specific schedule and were depending on him to provide transportation back to the terminal. Probably won't use them again. Unreliable.

My p/u was arranged by an actual telephone call with an actual person who was courteous and…read morecompetent. The p/u was on time and the route made sense.,The driver/trainer had a student on board and they seemed to have a good working relationship. Forget uberlyft bs. "Here, taxi."

Dealing with the dispatch person and the cab showing up were fine. The driver was also okay except…read morehe only put on his seatbelt when we were passing a LEO in a school zone and only signaled turns half of the time. The very bad parts were the price and the cab, itself. The dispatcher told me there was a $35.50 minimum price, which is ridiculous. But I was desperate and didn't have Internet access so I could use Uber or Lyft, which I did on my first ride of the day, from my home to a medical appointment for less than $15.00. It was only 6.8 miles! The $25+ difference in the rides was outrageous! What upset me more was how disgustingly filthy the car was. There were suspicious stains all over the seats and the headliner. I could just imagine someone projectile vomiting from the seats to the headliner. Then the door was also extremely dirty! The car was smelly (you could smell old cigarette smoke) and the A/C didn't work...at least not in the hellish back seat. I asked the driver if he could make it cooler but, I guess, he couldn't. When I got home, I took off my clothes and told my daughter to burn them. And then I wiped myself down with Lysol disinfectant wipes. I honestly felt subhuman sitting in that nasty car. I will NEVER use Checker Cab of Lakeland, again. NEVER!
