Case Description Nature of Incident: --Driver Discourteous --Failed to take most direct route --Taximeter not working, not used, not visible --Fare receipt not provided --Overcharged --Others (describe below) Incident details: It is quite alarming to experience flying into a new city and the taxi driver has no clue as to where an airport area hotel is then have the audacity to be rude when I offer the address. The residence inn is a quick drive from the airport yet the driver purposely went the wrong direction to get to my destination when the person at the airport specifically told her that the hotel was off of exit 58. After arriving to my destination, my bill was 17.93. I gave the driver 20.00 and asked the driver for a receipt, not only did she not provide me a receipt for the 20.00 , she did not give me my change. when I elected to pay by credit card she said that she had turned the machine off and would not be able to swipe my card. I got my own bags out of the car none of this experience warranted a tip. The driver of cab 233 was the worse driver I have ever experience and should not work in a customer service capacity especially if she is going to drive a car while talking on the phone without using a hands free device. I would appreciate the return of my 2.27 owed to me.
