I wanted you to know too that San Francisco Federal Credit Union is on board with Flywheel and helping to get the word out. We are promoting them to our more than 32,000 members. I personally use it every time I take a cab and love it! This is a recent email that we sent out to members giving them a $10 credit when they use Flywheel.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Hope you’re doing well.<br /><br />Rebecca Reynolds Lytle<br />SVP & Chief Lending Officer<br />San Francisco Federal Credit UnionCrocker Amazonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14344354862430937003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708859863717325805.post-11023471424060191292014-05-30T21:46:27.579-07:002014-05-30T21:46:27.579-07:00http://www.forbes.com/sites/ellenhuet/2014/05/30/h...http://www.forbes.com/sites/ellenhuet/2014/05/30/how-uber-and-lyft-are-trying-to-kill-each-other/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708859863717325805.post-82821517861172871582014-05-30T19:21:09.558-07:002014-05-30T19:21:09.558-07:00Hi David,

And, I think that Flywheel (formerly Cabulous) is allowing individual driver accounts again. I may be wrong but I don't think so.<br /><br />Anyway – I'll ask Flywheel a few question and then I'll do another post on the subject.<br /><br />If anybody else has criticisms let me know.<br /><br />EdCrocker Amazonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14344354862430937003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708859863717325805.post-43521860465723690222014-05-30T16:08:22.320-07:002014-05-30T16:08:22.320-07:00Seems like my comment don't pass the censorshi...Seems like my comment don't pass the censorship.Free Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17851147669431980361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708859863717325805.post-18178053435397109442014-05-30T15:20:38.689-07:002014-05-30T15:20:38.689-07:00Thanks for the correction John.

It was great Cabulous and the drivers were kicked out of the system after it get popular among riders. We never get charge, I can use my own phone( less electronic in cab), and I can see the map with location pluse TIP!!<br />Now I have to guess where the passenger is, worry about their phone might get stolen even it only worth about R100 but I will get charge $300. There are a lot of fares without tip and it cost me 10% and I cannot cancel?????!!!! When passenger cancel within 2 minutes, we don't get pay but I miss the street flags so many times. And flywheel hails are mostly downtown area.<br />If Cabulous (John) did not shoot himself in the foot by making fleet only and disabled the individual driver accounts, we won't see Flywheel, Uber,Lyft or other stupid bandits and corrupt people.<br />A lot of drivers are not happy with flywheel either.Free Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17851147669431980361noreply@blogger.com
