On Tuesday, November 25, two GoLocalProv reporters -- Kate Nagle and Courtney Melo -- ordered an Uber ride and a taxi at noon to take each from the Hampton Suites in Providence to Harkins Hall at Providence college, then swapped car service options to get the other experience coming back.
Action Taxi LLC was taken by one reporter from downtown to PC while the other used Uber; High Class Taxi was utilized as the taxi service coming back, and Uber once more. In both instances, the reporters called or requested service at the same time -- Uber got their reporter to the destination first before the taxi, but experiences varied with the modes of transportation depending on the category.
