I made a taxi reservation but realized I entered the wrong date after the driver confirmed. In the English version, there is absolutely no way to cancel or modify the reservation. I was forced to connect with customer support through kakaotalk. FYI they don't have English support. They sent screenshots of a screen that didnt exist for me, so they told me to switch the app to Korean, and then the option to cancel the reservation appeared. There is no way to modify the trip in either versions.

I tried to use this app in Korea, but it wouldn't accept my card even though it was one of the supposed accepted foreign credit cards. Then, I couldn't verify my account. Also, whenever I tried to search locations or addresses in English, nothing would pop up, or it would be in Korean. Rarely did it actually translate for me. I could hardly use the app during my trip because of this experience and relied on local friends to help me call taxis to get around.

The app is supposed to allow for reservations, but when I attempted to reserve a taxi an hour after making the request, it instead dispatched someone right away. I was then penalized because I did not want to take a taxi an hour before necessary. It also originally would not let me select a standard taxi. I had to confirm my origin and destination points repeatedly, too.

It's rare when you can even get a taxi. When you can it's nice. Sometimes I try over an hour and just give up. I know that can be said for taxis on the streets as well, but this is rediculious. Also sometimes drivers go around in circles and opposite directions when you are waiting for pickup. Then if you cancel you can't use the app for 5 minutes. It's nice when it actually works.

Very bad experience! DON'T USE THIS APP! USE UBER! I wait for my taxi after book a ride. It said the driver is three minutes away. After a while I received a message says the message is on the way and blah blah. And, then, a few seconds later, the ride was cancelled! The reason is I didn't show up and I have to pay the cancellation fee. I was perplexed and want to give an feedback. And, in feedback page, everything is in Korean. I switched to UBER later on and everything went smoothly.

Wanted to register an account with my home country number and was glad to see it on the list, only to get a notification that this country's number is not allowed a second later. Misleading from the start. Gotta go back to using uber.
