[nagdu] taxi reusal in Brooklyn, new York

[Wmodnl]

I had the same problem even when I informed them that I had a dog.  They probably gave her either Concord or All City.  Those were the two companies I always had problems with.  Tell her to ask for Skyline if this happens again since they are great.
You think dealing with those taxi companies are bad, just try getting a yellow cab in Manhattan!!!  To add insult to injury, try using a local company outside Manhattan!  It is as if you have to strike gold with a good driver or else.
Good luck.

He was going back to Queens where he lives and the taxi driver refused to take him because the driver told him I don't like dogs. My friend called the paratransit company and he asked them what are you going to do about this. Her reply was we are sending another taxi for you and your should have told us you have a dog. He told them he doesn't have to tell them he is traveling with a dog.  He has the names and phone number of 3 people who witnessed the man refusing to take him home.
