Yeah, with all these new programs coming out, I'm seriously
reconsidering applying for metro access. It would help me with
transportation immensely. Although, I wonder, and those of you
who are really familiar with metro access can hopefully tell me,
I did apply a long while ago, and was accepted. This was though,
in the state of Virginia. Does this mean I'll have to reapply, or
can I simply renew my membership?

Hi all,
I scheduled my first trip with Abilities Ride today. They
definitely
seemed a bit unorganized. At first, the rep asked me what my
co-pay
would be, and I told her I understood that I would only have to
pay
$5. Eventually, she got around to asking me what my Metro Access
ID
number was (even though I told her up front that I was a Metro
Access
customer). Then she asked me for my "pass". I said "I'm not sure
what
that is. Do you mean my password that I use to log into my Metro
Access account?" Then she apparently realized she did not need
that
from me, and we eventually got the trip scheduled.
I guess there are wrinkles to work out with the start of a new
program, which is understandable. But I think it has the
potential to
be a very good alternative to Metro Access.

Mobility ride program,
Terry,
You can't mix the Mobility ride program with Call and ride
program. Yes it
is like mixing apples and oranges and you can't do that since I
inquired
with Regency staff who were familiar with this new program.

I started out by indicating I was a Metro Access client. They
transferred me to a person to handle my request. I paid cash. It
did
not take long for the cab to come.

What do you tell the cab company when booking your trip, so they
do
not charge you normally. Also, can this be combined with call
and
ride or do you need cash or credit card. I would think call and
ride
would be out.
Like mixing apples and oranges!
Thinking of trying it.
Was your wait longer than a normal cab?

I agree the rollout was poor. However, I took two trips
yesterday and
one today. Today, they were better organized. It beats a blank!

Hi everyone,
Someone who has connections at WMATA forwarded me an email with
a link
to the website for the new Abilities Ride program. As mentioned
at the
meeting on Saturday, there was not a lot of information provided
by
Metro about the program, but this website has phone numbers and
website links. I personally think they should have sent out
emails or
a Metro alert, but it is what it is. Here is the link:
www.abilities-ride.com
Hope everyone is having a great day,
Shickeytha
