I had to use this car service for a ride home from an appointment. I call the dispatcher has me on hold never returned to the line to tell me color of the car and license plate # I call back someone else picked up was very rude abrupt and unprofessional tells me he sent car 23 hangs up but provided no information to look out for I finally see a black car with TLC plate and its the driver the driver was very polite car was in decent condition but their dispatchers need some lessons in customer service would consider using them again if its just using the app took off 2 stars for poor customer service

Excellent service! Car came quickly, was clean, and the driver was nice. Light pleasant conversation & smooth ride, although traffic has picked up since people are getting out more.

I didnt use this car service because they were charging me $10 more than another car service. They are too expensive!

This car service locally here for the lower east side of manhattan is fast and reliable transportation at a good price. I really do recommend this business to people

This car service often leaves its customers hanging waiting outside when they dont have cars available, instead of just telling the customers that there are no cars available when they call the first time, also they need to get rid of those old busted cars and only use the newer vehicles that they have available. I got it one of their cars the other day and there was some old dusty 1989 looking car but I didnt want to be late to work so I had to take it. Then the driver was this older Dominican man who kept nagging me talking about getting vaccinated, I was saying to myself dude I hear enough of that on the news I dont need to hear it from my cab driver on my way to work 🤷.

Called in the morning to see if I could make a reservation for that evening for an event I was attending. I was told no need to, just call 10-15 minutes ahead. Later, when I did that, I was told there are no cars, call back by the rudest and most curt dispatcher I’ve ever encountered. I took an Uber instead. Poor customer service. Won’t be calling this one again.

Growing up in LES most people use Delancey. For me not anymore. Dispatchers are rude. Will leave you on hold. Just called to have my disabled dad picked up. Not only did he leave me on hold forever when I called back they wouldnt answer. Service like this is why they will continue to loose business to uber and the other cab services..

Lately theyve been pretty good as far as showing up when they say they will (or within 5-10 minutes at least). Lost two stars for the few times I called and no one showed up or showed up really late. Other than that the drivers have been very nice and efficient. I think the prices are more than fair.

Tried to get pricing from NY-Presbyterian Hospital to the Bronx. Dispatcher was really rude, first did not know where one of the largest hospitals in NYC was located then said it would be $80 for a 6.1 mile trip.I’ll take a Yellow Taxi instead, at least I know I won’t get ripped off

I work at BI and often call Delancey Car to take patients home. Every single time I call, I get the same exact dispatcher. He is rude, inconsiderate, and sometimes an a$$hole. You ask a simple question (ETA?/How much will it cost?) and this dude will put you on hold for 5-10 mins. REALLY? Cabs are never there when they say it is. My patients get fed up waiting, I get fed up going back and forth. Every call means a 10 min wait, at least. Id give 0 stars if I can. I hope that dispatcher learns some manners and how to work faster. For a big car service, having a dispatcher like that will kill the company. Will not call again, will not recommend. $hit service.

Like Around last night yesterday morning at 12:30a on Tuesday 6:12/19 I Called DeLancey car service. I got a call from the driver but when I happen to be downstairs he was on the other side in the parking lot of my building on South Street instead of the inside of the building where you could be pick up at the front Of 182 South st building I Was Not happy with this driver we kept going back and forward on the phone he ask me If I could see him in the parking lot me. those Word his words I called the dispatcher on the base to explain to him the problem with this driver he Never call me after I waiting on the phone with the base for a very long time the dispatcher told me that the driver has left he never called me back to tell me that he will send me another driver to take me to my location waiting for a long time on the phone was I very angry with this dispatch they need to better their service to be pick not waiting for so long to be a answer on the phone

Delancey Car Service is home to some of the kindest individuals Ive met in NY. Raphael is a kind hearted person that will take good care of you. I cant recommend their car service enough.

They failed to show up and I can prove it.. Up until now I was supporting this business, but no longer. Good luck against Uber, Lyft and Via who are cheaper than Delancey!

Have used these guys for 8 years without much problem - the problems have started now that the neighborhood is getting busier. Keep up with the developments, or Uber will take over - which I really dont want, but thats the way the cookie may crumble..

Review №58

Ive never had an issue with a car service so I was surprised by how rude their team was on the phone. Also the fact that the dispatcher hung up on me before I could finish asking one of my questions. I recommend not using their services as they have also been quite unreliable in the past.

They are great and completely reliable. I have been using them for 6 years, multiple times a week, and have never had a issue. Sometimes you cant get a car when they are busy but that can happen anywhere.

Review №61

NEVER USE THIS SERVICE!!!! LIARS and THIEVES!!! Gave us a quote for $50+tip and then mid way thru the drive. The driver tells us its 100+. Literally stopped the car when we told him no thats not the price we were given. Left us stranded with our suitcases on the side of the road. Tried talking to the dispatcher but says they have no proof of ever taking us. And refused to take responsibility!!!!! Would give them zero stars if I could. Now they keep refusing to answer any of our calls. The worst service Ive EVER encountered in my life!!!!!

Ju
Review №62

This review is based on many times using this service - Utterly the absolute worse car service company in all of NYC! No, I mean zero, customer service. I dare you to call them and attempt to ask a question - they will just hang up on you. 50% of the times the drivers get lost. If you are in the downtown area and want a car service call New Day Radio instead. They are light years better!

Review №63

Horrible service!!! The dispatcher is very rude and wont give you accurate pricing and he doesnt listen to what you need, thier cars always come late, they are often dirty and the seats are sticky, they dont have newer updated cars and if you order a car they will send a suv and charge you more because its a suv I tried explaining to them I dont want this I didnt order this but they insisted I pay the extra fee for a suv

I have had several unfortunate experiences with Delancey. Once, when I called a car for my mom, Delancey had nothing available. So, I asked the dispatcher since I had just moved to the LES and knew no one else, who else could I call? He refused to provide a name or number Then, last July 4, I was on hold for 5 minutes with a recording telling about what excellent service they provide, with no one picking up. And when I had to use a Delancey SUV to pick up a mirror and tote it home, the driver was careless, dropping my mirror and cracking it. This place seems to echo the famed old LES with a surly customer-be-damned attitude. I dont know that the other local services are any better. Perhaps they have this attitude because so few alternatives exist. Delancey, however, could surely use better customer relations.

Ive called this place twice for cabs, dispatchers have hung up on me (while I was mid-sentence) both times. I work in customer service, and the rule about not hanging up on people is a pretty basic one.

I was standing outside waiting for my cab for 7 mins and then some lady came down with her son and she just called them. She was spanish and another spanish lady came down waiting for the cab. They both took the spanish people and not me. They are racist drivers and this isnt the first time. Wont be calling them anymore, they have lost a loyal customer.

VERY Rude dispatcher. Hung up phone b4 I could ask 4 price and the car left after waiting 10 minutes. I was with my elderly mom in a wheelchair - what did u want me to do? Fly downstairs without waiting for my mom or the elevator???!!? Called to ask where my car went and dispatcher said 10 min was max time they wait and said they will c if they can find someone and just hung up without telling me if they coming or not. So 5 min later I called again and asked if they coming otherwise I will find someone else for my moms doctors appointment. The dispatcher said Good, cuz u never came CLICK and hung up. If all the other Asian car service were available I wouldnt even bother with Delancey Car Service. Dude, were giving u Business. If u dun want our Business or unhappy with ur job then Go Home and rot! Surprise folks, just do a Google search and you will find that Delancey Car Service is NOT the only car service in town! I have since removed this place off my address book. I have read bad reviews about them before but I figured they were fine with me and I have not gotten any bad experience from them yet so I continued to use them...until today. Well, no more. If I could give half a star for at least picking up the phone, I would give half a star. At the very least they could have given me a call back asking where I was. They must have Caller ID, everyone does nowadays or ask for my phone number. Instead of just leaving without any notice.

I remember them being a great car service years ago, now theyve lost all hospitality and respect for the customer ... Its sad people choose to be rude before theyll be silent and respectful.

The most horrible car service experience. gave a quote when we booked and then didnt honor it. asked for $25 more once we were in the car or threatened to not take us. the staff is rude and unprofessional, especially the manager. no idea what customer service is. AVOID them at all costs.

If I could rate this AWFUL I would. They are so rude and so full of it. Looking at their website you might actually think they were decent. WRONG. They hang up on you, charge you more if youre coming from a nice neighborhood. Hit on you... Theyre so disgusting, NEVER AGAIN!

Weird reviews here. My neighborhood service, been using them for over 10 years, never had any problem at all. Sometimes if the weather is bad they dont have a car for me, but 99% of the time they say 5 minutes and theyre there. Have never been charged more than a yellow cab would have been, and frequently it seems less.

Review №84

I had to use this service last wednesday night for a trip to the ER - the driver was nice but when we arrived at the ER - my fare was $10.00 but since I had to pay with a card he enforced a minimum of $24.00 - which I think the legal minimum for credit cards is $10.00 - this was really upsetting experience - I will not use this car service again or recommend their service to anyone. Plus the driver did not drop me off at the ER - I had to walk a block on crutches to get to the actual entrance.
