LA Limo

… just used LA Limo from Newport Beach to the LA Forum… two ways… (and back at midnite) … Contrary to other reviews (which I saw after I paid)… everything about the service was excellent… the driver, the car, the cost, and all on time… and jeff was as courteous as could be… 5 stars

I made a very expensive reservation for a black car round trip from Downtown LA to Dodgers Stadium for the day game yesterday $ 280 for 2.2 miles. Afterall I was entertaining 3 important clients so I expected I get what I pay for.
The driver Edgar was great, he was on time, his car was clean and he was courteous. He gave me his number to let him know when the game was over. I texted him to pick us up at 3:30PM after the end of the 9^th inning. He picked us up and drove us 2.2 miles back to my office.- 5 minutes at the most. All is good right? Not–
Jeff the owner of LA Limo, LLC sends me an email at 7:00PM informing me that he ran my credit card for an additional $ 75 because the driver had to wait for me for an hour! So… I called Edgar the driver, after all he gave me his number to let him know when the game was over. This was the first he had heard of any additional charge. Also he was completely unaware that Jeff Charged $ 280 for the trip to begin with! He informed me that he is an independent contractor and this is not the first time LA Limo has tried to slip in additional charges on people he drove without warning.
I called Jeff immediately and he apologized and agreed to refund the $ 75.
All in all LA Limo wasted my time with their dishonest practices. The only reason I give 2 stars is because Jeff actually answered the phone and made an effort to resolve the issue. All be it an unnecessary one. Had they collected my $ 280 for 4 miles round trip and left it alone they would have earned my repeat and referral business.

This is the rudest, most horrifyingly unprofessional service provider I have ever experienced. Jafar is seemingly the business owner/​manager and was so aggressive, combative and offensive… you are better off taking an Über. For reputable limo services in Los Angeles, please see below.

LA Limo or The Los Angeles Limo Service
, absolutely RUINED my brother’s bachelor party. Stay far away from this company unless you want to be humiliated by your friends and family for renting «the worst limo» they will ever have the embarrassment of riding in!
The debacle began when I called to book a limo and spoke with Jeffrey who assured me he would have a new model SUV Limo that would stylishly and comfortably fit all 15 of us for the memorable and expensive night I had planned for my brother’s bachelor party. He quoted me $ 1,250 for an 8 hr evening and told me «you get what you pay for». I don’t know what country Jeffrey comes from, but if that’s true, I should’ve paid him in feces sandwiches. New model, ya, what picked us up was an 8 year old white Hummer stretch limo that looked like it was used by Flavor Flav on his last crack run. The paint was so dingy and scratched and I almost fell when I stepped to get inside the limo as the step was so wobbly it was actually held on with black duct tape!
The worst part about the entire limo was that the air conditioning didn’t work it was literally 87 degrees in there. All the girls make-​up was melting and it smelled like someone used soaking wet mildew rags as air freshener. I made the driver pull over and get his supervisor on the line before we even reached our first pick-​up it was so bad. The best part about that was the door between the limo and the driver was broken out so he put one of those shiny aluminum looking car sun shades in between us so we had no privacy and it looked like the job of Ghetto McGyver. At this point while waiting for the driver to talk to his boss, I was so drenched in sweat and humiliated as I stood there in front of our entire group watching them sweat and talk about how awful this trainwreck of a limo was.
I almost died when I finally looked around inside after wiping the sweat out of my eyes and saw that their were no beverages at all, no booze, no glasses, no nothing on the wet bar but some Dixie cups and a bottle of Arrowhead. I couldn’t believe it so I moved closer to inspect but the seat I was in started peeling away from the actual frame of the seat I almost hit my head! I was so embarrassed I literally called another limo company on the spot to come get us. The driver assured me that wasn’t necessary and that after he dropped us off at dinner he would drive back to the limo yard and get a new limo and pick us up in time to take us to the club. I foolishly believed him so I agreed to wait and off we went to dinner.
On the ride to the restaurant it became a game for everyone inside to point out just how jacked up the inside of the limo was. Here were some of the things we noticed:
* Mirrors on the ceiling were totally shattered
* Colored strobe lights were burnt out on one side so it looked like a gimp was giving you half of a light show
* Stereo speakers were blown out and hissed
* One of the windows didnt even roll down
* Did I mention it smelled like it was used for Bikram yoga by the 1^st annual Homeless Yoga Retreat of the San Fernando Valley?
So guess what happened after dinner? More disappointment. Nothing happened. Same wreck of a Hummer. At that point it was too late to hire a new one so we had to roll in it for the rest of the night. I’m surprised we actually made it to the club. I guess it just proves how strong duct tape really is. Once we arrived at the happening club I had him drop us off around the corner like I used to ask my mom to do when I was in 5^th grade.
I have left probably 15 messages and emails for who I presume to be the owners, Jeffrey and Maryam. They haven’t returned a single phone call or email.
Hopefully I can save someone else the nightmare of having their special event ruined by LA Limo the way they ruined mine.
In the end, the $ 1,250 they scammed me out of will be a drop in the bucket compared to all the business they will lose from consumers reading this review.
