    Filed a complaint today after getting passed up again by a NYC Yellow cab. Cabbie picked up a white guy a block away. Wonder why Uber wins?

        Props to @alroker for seeing it through. This crap happens all the time but @nyctaxi's reporting process is prohibitively tedious.

        @remiadetiba @nyctaxi Actually, it's not. I went on the website and have the complaint filed in about five minutes

        @alroker @nyctaxi Oh, good. When I tried to do it by phone a few years ago, it felt like it was made difficult to discourage complainants.

        @alroker it's just "cab" now, al. wrong to call them yellow.

      @alroker Several years ago. Christmas week. Outside CBS. Once again, cab actually comes over; looks at me; speeds away. So...

      @alroker File complaint. Driver no-show twice. Third time, police come into my waiting area. To escort me past driver. Who's on a rampage.

      @alroker I predict a SWIFT apology to you from whoever runs @YellowCabNYC or @nyctaxi, then they'll go back to passing up other Black men.

        @alroker I was once in an @uber and the driver pulled over and asked me to get out and cancel the trip because he wasn't comfortable with me

        That's awful. Were you in drag? If I was @TheVickyVox's or @alroker's @Uber driver I'd drive for free. Irrationally fearful/hateful people.

        @TheVickyVox @alroker Well, both of you have tons of fans who love you for you, if it's any consolation. Stay true to who you are!

        Easy, @boris3324, someone who skips over brown people saw @alroker as just another brown guy.
