RideCharge - New Taxi, Sedan & shuttle Booking Tool

-- Find reliable service in unfamiliar cities: taxi, sedan, shuttle, limo.
-- Compare options and prices.
-- Receive immediate confirmation, and Outlook calendar invites.
-- Track your car’s status electronically.
-- Make and change reservations on your mobile device.
-- Synchronize airport rides with your flight times.
-- Expense tools automatically pre-populated.

A ride can be booked either online or with the mobile application. You can view the status of your ride in the mobile application, or online in the "Rides on My Mobile" section. You will be sent a reminder of an upcoming ride one hour before the pickup takes place.



Payment occurs at the end of the ride. Select "Confirm Ride Taken" in your mobile application and follow the instructions displayed:



For Taxis: You enter the amount you would like to pay into the mobile phone (the driver can tell you the cost of the ride based on the local meter rate or a zoned flat rate). Your method of payment will be charged for this amount and your driver will be paid by his/her fleet office as with a standard "house account."

For Sedans, Limos or Shuttles: You authorize a charge using your mobile phone, to indicate that you took the ride. Select "Confirm Ride Taken" on your mobile application and follow the instructions displayed.

In some cases your driver may be unable to tell you the cost of the ride immediately. The ride cost is calculated later by the transportation company's main office, and they will submit the total charges to us. If this is the case, you will only be asked to confirm that you took the ride. We will bill your method of payment and display the charges online in the E-Receipts section of our website. For details on using the mobile phone for Payment, see How do I pay for a ride?

RideCharge covers the following areas:
Washington-Baltimore, New York Metro, Los Angeles, Houston, Dallas, San Diego, San Francisco, Denver, Kansas City, Charlotte, Nashville, Portland, OR, Phoenix, Austin, Sacramento, San Antonio, Tampa, Nationwide (Dav El Limo)

Anyone actually use this yet? I sometimes have a hard enough time getting cabbies to accept a credit card payment, rather then some wierd obscure wireless payment via my mobile...
