Keeping safe
I cannot believe the surges for Uber in downtown. Toronto very rarely use it try to shop local and once I found Beck taxi there will be no one else. I will trust to take my brother to safely get to his subway station at 5 o’clock in the morning in downtown Toronto. Many thanks Beck Taxi.
Terrible GPS
The GPS and time for pickup is totally inaccurate
Pretty good service but…
My only observation is the fact that now with the app, we can’t add a note to be more specific about the pick up details when we booked the trip to let the drivers know things like…stores name, upper or lower levels or side/number entrances… there are many stores inside the plazas, and some are two floor level stores with different entrances 🤷🏻♀️ But other than that, I’m pretty happy with the service. I’ve been using Beck for the past 25 years and never had a problem.
Booking time too slow
I love Beck Taxi and I will always choose it over UBER when I can, but you don't make it easy. It takes far too long to book a driver and there doesn't seem to be any priority for loyal, consistent users.
Beware of sketchy taxi operators
Wanted to stop using ubers in Toronto but this app reminds me of why I stopped using taxis, they would take the longer path to increase the fare. I acknowledge this can be a bad actor on the specific drivers part but beware of fares being $5-7 more then estimated fare range for a $16-18 estimate
Safe for women and children
Best and fastest way to get taxi ...
Worst mapping and tracking
It says one minute for 15 minutes easy…. Terrible navigation system… to contact the driver you have to call the company
Prediction
I like this app for the convenience! But it drives me a little bonkers when the time estimates are completely off. I booked a cab at 16:09 and it predicted that the cab was 1 minute away. The cab actually showed up at 16:15, so much for that prediction.
Arrival times are wildly in accurate
Overall I like using the app but the estimated times of arrival are wildly in accurate. It always tells me 1 or 2 minutes when it is in fact sometimes 10 or more.
Know when to use it
It’s a good app to book a taxi in advance and when you know that Uber/Lift will overcharge you for peak times. I am never able to pay with my credit card via the app, so I have no choice but to pay in the car
Best guy!
Fantastic kind man
Surprised
Know that surprises in the form of unexpected fees from drivers can expect you
App is getting better but still needs an additional tip option after you finish your trip.
I’ve used this app for a while and still think there needs to be a tip option to add additional tip if the service was particularly good. Often the app gives my default, even if I want to tip more and I’d like to be able to add more tip.
Needs update
When I open App screen is white and then it shuts down
The app
I often have problems putting in a pickup location where I was dropped off. It defaults to something close, but doesn’t let me override it. Very frustrating!
That’s a nice ride, Beck!
We can always count on Beck drivers. The drivers are on time, the cabs are clean and they know the city routes to get you there on time. Thanks for the nice ride, Beck!
Rates don’t match charge Scammy
The app does not allow you to pay in advance. I was charged over double from what my original rate was supposed to be. Reached out to customer service and was told they will look into it and have yet to hear back. Feel like I was scammed
No show and charged
I use to like this app but recently drivers have not shown up, or went to wrong address and beck still charges. If it was once I would ignore but this has happened a few times now.
Would be 5 Star if Add a Stop Actually Worked
I generally am extremely happy with this app but although the user interface provides a way to add a stop, it doesn’t appear to work. You can hit the + and key in an additional address but it then vanishes when you leave that screen
Better than Uber
Great service, ACTUALLY insured cars where passengers are also protected, great drivers who are polite, respectful, and non-creepy. I swear by registered taxi services. I strongly recommend
can’t log in
i enter my number, solve the captchas, get an error.
Barely better than not using the app
The people who made this app should try using Uber one time, and then comparing how that feels to using the Beck app. I don't like Uber, but they know how to make ordering a ride easy and painless. I booked a trip with Beck tonight. I wrestled with the map for awhile to make my location reflect reality. Immediately I got a phone call saying, "You booked a taxi, but you specified a range of addresses?" "Umm… that's just what the app did." "What's your address?" (…lengthy conversation ensues about where I might be, because I'm at a bar and I don't know the street address) Later, the ride concludes. I should be able to just get out, because I've setup auto-pay. But instead the driver scrounges for some mysterious piece of paper and pen for a minute, then writes something down at length, and then, finally, enters the amount to charge. I wait some more and think about just paying in cash. Finally the payment goes through. It's nice you made an app, but it would be even nicer if it actually made ordering a taxi more convenient, not less…
The wait time is inaccurate
I wait 2-3 times as long as it says for a cab
Superior to rideshare apps
Take the TTC. When the wait is too long or the trip too urgent, there’s no reason not to use this app. The drivers are professional and arrival times are accurate and fast. Keep your money in Toronto
App is fine price is insane
A $14-25 trip via Uber is $45-55 with beck
Timing not accurate
The app always says the taxi is one or two minutes away when in reality the distance is 5-7 minutes away. Sometimes doesn’t update the car location very fast
Much improved
Had not used this app in years. It has gotten much better. It is dependable and does not have surge pricing.
Captcha machine
Attempted captcha test about twelve times and it just kept telling me something went wrong.
Cash option?
I’ve always paid cash for cabs and prefer it. The need to submit credit card info is fine but then for a driver to call in and cancel the charge once the trip is complete is a complication.
Ms. Bella La Vida
Best driver! Much respect!🙏🏽🫶
GPS
Dropped pins for pick up at staff entrance, cars constantly arrive at public entrance.
Ride sharing convenience with regulated taxi reliability in Toronto
Having the Beck App gives you all the convenience of ride sharing services with out the risks of surge pricing, varying training and qualifications of drivers. If you live in Toronto next time you thinking of *b3ring or calling *ijft.
Unprofessional service and driver ignored cost estimate
Driver took 20 minutes to arrive when the app said he was 6 minutes away. It looked like he was parked for 15 minutes and only started moving when I called him. Then when he eventually got here, he said that the cost was the meter + $20, totally disregarding what the app said for a price. We did have some cargo to bring, but the vehicle tier selected was a cargo van so the estimate should have been the correct. Ridiculous experience and a waste of time, why bother providing an estimate if your drivers are going to ignore them.
Never Uber
I despise the criminality of the Uber corporate model
Now they put it as you need to use a card to use app
I mean the reason why even used you guys for so many years is the fact that you guys did not ask for a card it’s really screws over people who are low income who do not have a bank account or anything like that I’m probably going to Uber
