One of the biggest taxi companies in Suffolk County is Lindy's taxi, and I'm convinced they own all of the companies, just under different names.    

 

I call one taxi service, and a Lindy's car shows up.  I will call the number for.. "Island Wide- and they just answer 'Taxi'.. and a Lindy's car will show up. (and vice-versa).  all the companies throughout LI!    If I'm trying to track down information to see if a ride was scheduled for a client, I get bounced around to all different locations before I can speak to that dispatch location it was sent to. 

 

What a racket. lol.

Nikki...It's all true. 1 guy owns the majority of all the taxi co's in Suffolk. He keeps buying em all up!

right?  I know I'm not crazy.  It's brilliant!  that man is a genius, whoever he is.     Especially when someone decided that one taxi service is 'unreliable'... so they call another one, without realiizing its all the same. lol.

It's like that in a lot of cities I visit.
