<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I was originally partial to LYFT and couldn’t understand why so many of our colleagues preferred UBER. Lately, I’m sad to say, LYFT has been a major disappointment. Too many times now I have heard back from drivers
who claimed they were too far away, necessitating my having to cancel the ride, or the app got stuck on, say, 9 minutes ETA without budging. This was a hassle especially when my destination was time sensitive. In another unfortunate instance, when Lou Ann
and I were to catch a train well before the crack of dawn, we were actually billed for a ride that never took place. I had no trouble in getting refunded but how crazy is that? UBER appears to have pulled out in front in terms of reliability, customer service,
and probably even price, despite surge pricing. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
