Tue Jun 15 2010WORST CAB EXPERIENCE EVER. HE TRIED TO QUADRUPLE CHARGE ME, THEN WHEN I CALLED DISPATCH, HE DROVE OFF WITH THE DOOR OPEN AND ME HALFWAY IN THE CAB, TOSSING ME OUT. WHEN I DID CALL THE COMPANY THEY TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY, SAYING THEY DON'T CONTROL THE DRIVERS...AVOID AT ALL COSTS -- I RATHER WALK ANY DISTANCE THEN TAKE THIS CAB COMPANY!!!!! (other friends have shared similar horror stories).

Tue Jun 08 2010Run by GREAT guys who work to help you even when it wasn't their problem or fault. Best way to qualify a company is when you have a problem. We left an important in a cab coming in from an international flight. At first we thought it was an Independent Taxi; however when we went to their office we determined it wasn't. Instead of leaving us on our own to find it - the owners used their resources to help determine which company did pick us up and as a result we were able to find a VERY important lost piece of luggage. THANKS!

Sun Aug 31 2008Good reviews and the company's reputation made me choose this taxi service for my first cab ride in Los Angeles. I have used it twice with no complaints and will choose it again next time I need a ride. Prompt pick-up time, street-smart drivers, fair pricing, senior discount availability are some of its pluses. Its large fleet manages to limit pick-up time between 5 to 15 minutes. Don't mistake this for other companies using the word "independent".

Mon Mar 10 2008I had a meeting to be at at 5:30, so I call them at 4:30 ish, maybe even eariler than that. They tell me (like every cab service in Los Angeles County) they'll be 10-15 mins. So, at around 5 I get a little worried and I give them a call. The tell me it might be another 10-15 mins. (Just so you know I have very little patience) I called another cab company (Yellow cab) which picked me up at 5:15. At around 5:45 I get the rocorded call telling me my cab from Independent had come. I ignored it. So, they call me back, and a guy on the other line told me not to call them anymore, and I was wasting there time. So, if you like wonderful customer service, a on time arrival, and friendly serve from point A-B avoid the RED WHITE AND BLUE CABS!!

Tue Dec 18 2007Called for a cab, they said 1/2 hour. I called after 40 minutes to politely check on the cab, got a curt response that they were busy and would "put in another call." After 20 minutes, my phone rang, no one there, but I figured it was the cab and went outside. No cab. Called back immediately, they said "oh, you're still waiting?", I explained politely what had just happened, they said they'd put in another call. I called again 20 minutes later, explained politely that I was still waiting; discovered they had the street name confused with a similar one (I gave a cross street, so they should have noticed, and after repeating my address 3 times you'd think someone would notice?). Waited, no cab. I called again 1 1/4 hours after original call, politely explained that I had been waiting a long time, the woman said she'd put me on hold; LAUGHED to her colleagues and said "she's calling back" before she pressed the hold button. Someone else picks up and says it's the cab company...had no id... Read more
