I&#x27;d agree when I&#x27;m in NYC or somewhere cabs are readily available at the curb.  But it&#x27;s a rare occasion that I&#x27;d actually call a cab.<p>No CC in 2016 is insanely frustrating.  I paid for a ~$10 cab ride once with a $100 bill (the only cash I ever carry) after the driver claimed he couldn&#x27;t accept a CC.  Then he gave me ~$30 in change and semi-apologized with &quot;sorry I don&#x27;t have any more cash yet tonight&quot;.  I called bullshit and he managed to find another $10 or so.  If I hadn&#x27;t had quite a few drinks, I would have felt more comfortable calling the cops on him at the time, but really it just takes that happening once for me to refuse cash-only cabs.  I really had no idea how to respond especially since he told me that at the end of the ride at my apartment, which isn&#x27;t near an ATM.
