Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor Ahuja has lashed out at international cab services company, Uber, for what she termed was her ‘scariest experience’ ever.
She tweeted early morning on January 16 about the experience and warned people against the cab service Uber. The ‘Neerja’ actor tweeted that she was “shaken” after having “the scariest experience” with Uber in London. She further urged people to opt for public transportation over Uber cabs.
Her tweet read, “Hey guys I’ve had the scariest experience with @Uber london. Please please be careful. The best and safest is just to use the local public transportation or cabs. I’m super shaken.”

She further replied to a tweet by blogger and columnist Priya Mulji, and stated that her Uber driver was “unstable.”
“The driver was unstable and was yelling and shouting. I was shaking by the end of it,” Sonam wrote in a separate tweet.
She shuttles between London and Mumbai for work purposes. As soon as her tweet was published, reactions started pouring in from all quarters. Many agreed with her, while others believed that Uber wasn’t entirely at fault and it was the driver who was responsible.
The driver was unstable and was yelling and shouting. I was shaking by the end of it.

I tried complaining on your app, and just got multiple disconnected replies by bots. You guys need to update your system. The damage is done. There is nothing more you can do.

Earlier this month, Sonam Kapoor had lodged a complaint against British Airways on Twitter for misplacing her luggage. Sonam wrote that of the three times that she traveled recently with the airline; the airline lost her luggage twice. “This is the third time I’ve traveled with British Airways this month and the second time they’ve lost my bags. I think I’ve learnt my lesson. I’m never flying with British Airways again,” she tweeted. British Airways had responded with an apology.
