      Answered
      We pre-paid to reserve private transportation from hotel to airport, and were given a pick up time. I received the text from Mears on the morning they were scheduled to pick us up stating that the driver was on the way - but the driver never showed. After waiting 20 minutes after the time they gave me for scheduled pick up, I telephoned Mears. When I told the representative that the driver had not shown, she had no explanation as to why, or any information as to how close he was. I asked to talk to management, and she promptly hung up on me. We then had to scramble to find and pay for alternate transportation to the airport and nearly missed our flight! I have reached out several times to Mears for a refund, and continue to receive automated responses which state they are busy at this time. I did get one email stating this would have to be escalated to management, but have not heard back since.

      BEWARE of this company, City Cab of Orlando! I reported to **** of America alleged fraud. I never took this taxi and they charged me $53.88! This had to be the taxi cab driver I used the day before from CMT Orlando taxi that possibly scanned my credit card! I left the Orlando airport to go to my Orlando hotel. That was a valid ride, however, the next day, CMT taxi charges me when I NEVER was in their taxi and have proof of my whereabouts all that day! With receipts from Uber and Lyft!I advise using only Uber and Lyft**** of America will refund my money, but from now on, I will NEVER trust another taxi cab company!!!

      Dear *********,We apologize for the possible erroneous Charges. CMT Orlando is the credit card processing company we use for all of our taxis. Did the taxi contractor swipe your credit multiple times or did you experience a "timeout" with the credit card processing device? If you contact our ********************* at ************, they will be able to assist you. Thank you!
