K16S asked if I was paying cash , then gave me a hard time because I said I was on debt , when the flat rate came up to $32 from YVR to down town and I asked him to make it a even $35 he said , only a three dollar tip? I know its a low percentage, but I tip according to service, if he didnt ask me me to pay cash and I didnt have to say my address three times and spell out Richards he would have gotten more , called to complain at there dispatch, they where very Receptive, and Concerned about the drivers attitude

YVR to Van. Cab#7. Driver was rude, didn't wear a mask, and lied about not accepting VISA. Why lie and force cash payment? Are they fishing for tips or practicing tax evasion? Will go with something with a rating system next time. 100% Uber > Kimber
Update: customer support confirmed that all of their cabs accept VISA. They also said that the same drivers drive the same cars, but just went ahead and dismissed our concerns and said that it wasn't possible that their drivers were rude and to quote "are you sure it was Kimber cabs?" "That's just not very believable", then hung up on me.

Terrible service taking the cab from YVR to quarantine hotel tonight - driver #7. The driver was impatient and rude, threw our luggages onto the middle of the road, and demands a $10 tip on a $20 trip!

Our driver picked us up at the airport and had an attitude from the start. We had a baby in the car and he was speeding aroand flyingund the corners. At the end we paid the flat rate and he made a comment saying oh you don't tip? As I was unhappy with the service I didn't tip. He just crumpled up the paper and threw it. Terrible service.

Driver was courteous and helpful, BUT I rated low because we pre-scheduled the taxi and called to confirm it for ride to the airport to catch our International flight; however they arrived 20 min after scheduled time! Nearly made us miss our check-in time. We only had 4 min to spare when arrived at check in. They in our experience can't be trusted to be punctual even when scheduled in advance.

I took this cab early morning to YVR and it was a great experience, driver was so helpful and courteous, even assisted my 94 yr old mom getting in and assisted her going to the lobby of the airport. Highly recommendable. A big thanks to this company .

AVOID! Scammed by driver of cab #4! We gave driver $25 for our ride and he swapped out the $20 for a $5 and demanded we pay the difference to make up the $22 fare. Called to notify the dispatch and they were not helpful at all. Driver was also terrible. Almost hit 2 cyclists, went off the road once, speeding 30km above limit, and didn't wear his own seat belt the entire ride.
