A great app which does everything you need it to and more. Much better than the local public transport applications in California
Impossible to cancel monthly membership
Sarah Butterfield (NZ)
Earlier in the year whilst visiting SF I got a monthly bay wheels membership. The actual bay wheels experience was great but cancelling my membership has been a nightmare. I have tried to cancel my monthly membership multiple times but I have been unsuccessful. My email and phone that are verified through Lyft have not been linked to any bay wheels account so I cannot access the account to cancel the monthly membership (which seems to be the only way to cancel based off the online guide). I have attempted to contact Lyft as soon as I realised that my membership was renewing but to no avail. Every time I email it links me to a webpage with information that is not helpful or useful. I have never left a review on the App Store before, but I feel compelled to do that so that I can please get some help to have this sorted. My boyfriend also struggled to cancel his membership and had to contact their twitter!?! Before you get a monthly membership (especially if you are a tourist) think twice!!!
Good service

Lyft is always coming up cheaper than the main competitor, but wait times seem to be longer and have had more driver issues - I cuss that’s what you get for a cheaper service!
Can’t see driver arrival route map

This is a good app. But it’s so frustrating not to be able to see the route the driver is taking to you - so you can be sure you are waiting in the best place. Or to say if there are roadworks etc. Uber is much better for this.
Thank you for using Lyft! We regularly update our app to make your experience even better. Each update to our app includes reliability and speed improvements, in addition to bug fixes and performance improvements. New features are highlighted in the app.
