Booking was easy and the fare was about…

Booking was easy and the fare was about 20% cheaper than the bus. According to the company’s website the driver was taking 2 passengers. In fact, there were 7 passengers crammed into the vehicle. I called the company to complain and during an exchange I was told that the company had no control over the driver taking on more passengers ( maybe those passengers are not Kangaride customers ). It gets better ! The company confirmed the drop off point in writing and the driver dropped the passenger off about 20 km from the confirmed drop off point !
Would I ever consider using this car service again ? Never !

Solid Customer Support, Inconsistent Driver Experience

To give you a brief overview, this company is definitely legitimate, so you don't need to worry about it being a scam. I usually drive with Poparide, but due to time sensitivity regarding my schedule, I was forced to find a ride through this platform instead.

In terms of cost and fees, the pricing is transparent: you pay a $5-10 CAD fee to the platform, and the remaining ride cost is payable in person via cash to the driver. In the end, the price is almost the same or a little more expensive compared to Poparide.

In terms of platform suitability, the service surprisingly offers live telephone support from 9 AM to 9 PM, which is a great feature. However, a major functionality gap is that there is no way to communicate with the driver before booking to coordinate, nor is a lot of information about the driver provided.

Finally, in terms of the ride experience, I had mixed feelings. The driver arrived a bit late, which happens with rideshares and isn't a big deal, but the vehicle environment was difficult. There was a noticeable lingering smell in the car, and the temperature was an issue. The driver explained that he would get sleepy if he turned the heat on, which I understand for safety. However, in -8 degree weather, he repeatedly rolled down the front window, sending a chill through the car that was very difficult to tolerate; a senior passenger actually had to use a blanket to stay warm in the freezing air. It was also difficult to resolve this as there was a significant language barrier.

Overall, the platform is reliable for booking, but I hope they can improve their standards for in-car comfort and driver communication.
