Checker Yellow Cab

Checker yellow sucks so bad Google won’t pull it up on maps. I don’t know how many times this peice of shit company has left me stranded or put one of their ghetto ass service reps on the phone who don’t know how to book a fucking cab for their customer. I’m sick of this company and would suggest you call someone else if you can’t get an über. They FUCKING suck!

They said they are the only cab company that is able to drive into fort Jackson, but it takes forever for them to arrive. I waited an hour and a a half, for them to only tell me they could just drop me off at the gate. Call blue ribbon cab

Cab filled with trash, literally had to drive the entire drive with all four windows open because the entire cab smelled of trash and body odor. Then started raining, driver closed windows… disgusting, gagged the whole time. Also, driver spent half the drive telling me about his religion and about gays going to hell, oblivious to the fact I am one. Will never use service again, disgraceful. Oh, and I had to wait an hour for it to even pick me up.

I’ve tried to use this cab company several times now and haven’t been happy with getting a ride. One time they said I could use credit card when I was on the phone calling for a ride but when I was picked up, the cab driver told me his machine was broken and could only take cash. Then when i was paying for the fare in cash, he didn’t have any change and I had to pay a lot more than I wanted to.
My most recent experience with this company was calling for a ride and being told it would be here within 30 minutes but nobody ever showed.

Reserved a cab online (first time). Granted it was an early morning request, and requested credit card, but NO ONE showed. Glad I found a ride, at least saved some $$$.

The drivers are friendly, actual driving skills on the other hand are suspicious. The slightly erratic and racing-​like driving is kind of humorous in a New York-​city driving– kind of way. A little worried about the durability of the cabs themselves, the first one jutted forward when idling, similar to my classy Buick, and the second one actually died while driving. The driver efficiently started it back up again and it was hardly noticeable. I’m guessing it wasn’t the first time it happened. Good rates consider DUI’s are more expensive. We’ll probably use them again.

I had called to reserve a taxi to pick up my husband from the airport and bring him to Sumter. the cab was on time, the driver actually walked into the baggage claim area and helped with the luggage. He accepted credit cards and provided a receipt. Excellent service.

Called for a pickup at 0730 on Fort Jackson. They didn’t show up on time and I had to call the dispatch and determine the drivers whereabouts. She said Someone would be there shortly and hung up. After 2 more calls, a cabbie showed up at 0815. When I informed him of my destination he told me it would be about 8 bucks and wanted to make sure I had correct change. I told him I only had a $ 20. He said he didn’t have change and that it would cost me the entire $ 20 if he gave me a ride. No deal, I got out! Worst service I’ve ever had… stay away from this company if your calling from Ft Jackson!!!

Had to use this company recently for work and I am shocked at how HORRIBLE the service was. I called at 7:00 AM to schedule a cab for 7:30 AM. At 7:30 the cab had not arrived, so I called back and was told by the operator that a cab was in route. Another 10 minutes go by and still no cab. I call back again and I get the same response, that a cab is in route.
At this point I call the operators bluff and ask her how long exactly because she told me the same thing 10 minutes prior. She informs me that she told me the last time that they were extremely busy and that they would get a cab out as soon as possible. This was not the case. When I informed her of her lie, she said that all phone conversations were recorded and that she had not told me previously that a cab was in route.
At this point I ask to speak to a supervisor, so that he or she can listen to my previously recorded conversations, and the operator hangs up on me. I call back again and ask to speak to a supervisor and the operator hangs up on me again.
The cab did show up… 20 minutes late.
If you want a cab company in the Columbia Area, use Deluxe Cab. Their dispatch number is 803−413−3495. Their dispatchers are always friendly, their cabs are clean, and there drivers are extremely friendly. DO NOT USE CHECKER YELLOW!

Have used this company in Columbia while on business to avoid renting a car. The cars are generally clean and well maintained. The drivers have been friendly and full of great information necessary for a visitor.
