[Electronics-Talk] New Way to Use Uber and Lyft Without a Smartphone

[Drew Hunthausen]

Okay. That's what I thought as it wouldn't make sense for there to be an
extra charge for the middle man! thanks

The intermediary is Great Call. It is Great Call that will summon either an
Uber or lyft car based on price and availability. There is an additional
service charge over and above the actual fare for the ride.
Both Uber and lyft offer various options depending on the city that you are
in.  I do not know if the Go Go service allows you to choose the kind of
ride that you want.  For example, both lyft and Uber offer a shared ride
service that is cheaper than the standard ride.  Also, I don't know how
tipping is handled, as with lyft you tip through the app rather than with
cash.
