Is Yellow Cab GM Mike Barnard running a Scam?

[Contract Cancelled]

At Yellow Cab Co. Is the GM Mike Barnard running a fraud sceme at the Company at the drivers expense?
It's been that when a driver buys a car from the Company,and when the contract owner is almost paid off,he has someone fabricate a complaint,and cancel's the driver contract.
That's how he became a millionaire,and he has a female name Mary Jane,that has someone goe's out and put a dent in the car,and tells the driver,that they half to pay for it.
The Mechanic Shop,they running a fraud sceme under the control of Mike Barnard.
If any Yellow Driver's see this,I want to hear your imput.

I agree with you contract cancelled, it seems very fishy that contracts get cancelled just about the time the cab is to be finished payed for. I've seen cabs sold two to three times to different drivers, all with the same outcome. I guess thats how Mike Bernard gets to drive around in his Mercedes that he parks in the boneyard.

[The real CASH CAB]

In Feb. 2003, Dale Cardwell and I did investigative story addressing stolen taxi cabs operating illegally in Atlanta and surrounding counties with altered aka 'flipped" VIN numbers to circumvent city ordinances and other regulations. What wasn't investigated fully was the clandestine financial wizardry that is the end product of altering VIN numbers on a large fleet of Ford Crown Vics nationwide. The money is being laundered when you overvalue a fleet of vehicles by altering VIN numbers to make them appear newer on paper but are actually 4 to 5 years older. The self insured policies for taxi companies are not sanctioned or regulated like commercial companies therefore no federal oversight.
After a staged accident with a stolen Yellow Cab with an illegaly altered VIN number, I discovered that the largest cab company in Atlanta was illegally altering VIN numbers on their fleet of cabs and has developed into a multi-state issue. The VIN numbers are coming from New York and other cities. There are many reasons why this is being done and the owner of the medallion(s) ultimately benefits when these vehicles are overvalued as assets to back the medallion loans and to use older,stolen and decrepit cabs to avoid purchasing new ones mandated by city ordinances. This process of cross-collateralization becomes illegal when the VINs are altered to hide stolen identities and over-values the fleet as a whole.This maybe an integral part of driving the market price for these medallions. The taxi industry is a money laundering machine due to "all cash business". It's the ideal vehicle to launder any illegal currency to convert to U.S. dollars. An American University professor Peter Chinloy wrote an article contained in my documented evidence regarding how this scheme works. The most significant aspect of this scheme involves Banco Popular de Puerto Rico that was indicted in 2000 for failure to report illegal deposits, aka 'drug proceeds'. Banco holds liens on impounded taxis. The other article is the investigation by Washington D.C.'s Dept. of Insurance, Banking and Securities of an insurance company owned by the same person who owns Yellow Cab and VFH Captive Insurance in Atlanta. Please review the following and it will introduce how this multi-state scheme works. Other original documents are available in pdf format. VHS copy of news report available.

I agree with you Yellow Cab Driver. I've seen a lot of weird, underhanded dealings around there. When Charo used to be there. It was a good place to work. Then that worthless piece of Emu crap Mike Barnard began to enforce his ridiculious dress code standards! You have to have your shirt tucked in, collared shirts, he'd sit in his office and watch the closed circuit monitors to see if he could catch somebody paying their lease wearing a shirt not tucked in. He has no life, so he gets his jollies by catching drivers in line not being in compliance with his cock-eyed rules. Hes areal bonehead! thats why they named the Cab parking lot after him, the Bone Yard. Someone needs to check into the ongoing practice of making the drivers pay the credit card service fee that the company should be paying, not taken out of the drivers credit card slips they cash in for their fares that paid with a credit card.

Scam is'nt the word, more like a monopoly in his attempt to run off the other cab companys like AAA Cab and Gato Negro Cab. Night Owl cab is holding on by a thread because of Mike Barnard using his strong arm tactics to make other companies fold and be enveloped by Yellow Cab. At least the other companies don't hire convicted felons to drive for them like Yellow Cab.

Yellow Cab,AAA Taxi,SA Taxis are all in it to screw the drivers.

My biggest issue is Josie Reyes. Book keepers normally earn around $20k per year since they're not real accountants, but some how some way Josie makes at least twice that through her crooked bullying ways. She even just got back from a trip to the UK that costed several thousands of dollars.

Plus Reyes and Bernard are not the brightest businessmen. WHen the economy tanks, you don't strong-arm and bully the drivers for money that is just not out there, and you certainly don't keep adding new drivers when the current drivers are struggling as it is. Those two routinely defy all economic business logic, and it blows the mind how they don't see their irrational behavior.

Plus the fees. I am sure all the fees, like repo fees for cars never repossessed, are not officially reported in the books.

She's been scamming & blowing Mike Barnard's wee-wee for years.
Josie has all the access to the cash register & computer,so she knows how to help herself for some money.

Yellow Cab Co. is run by nothing but a bunch of asshole,and Yellow Cab#1 George Alva is the Yellow Cab's mascot,and he blows Baranard's wee-wee & swallows.

All Yelllow Cab is but a big legal scam.

I heard Yellow Cab #1 works part time at the YMCA handing out towels in the shower room....

You perverts sound like ex-Yellow drivers who couldn't measure up to their standards. Get over it.

Why is your cab number 12? Is it because you like 12 inchs or more...

You sound like Josie. Standards? Ha! You mean treat people like slaves to where they're almost living in their cars because Josie and that Wizard Of Oz midget reject Bernard are strong-arming drivers to where they can't pay their bills. They know it's a recession and there's not a lot of money out there, so they strong-arm and bully to make sure they get their profits first, whether it be bullying drivers they already have to force them to work 18 hours per day just to make the lease or constantly adding new drivers to take away some more of what little business is out there. Drivers are stealing everyone else's calls left and right because of this environment Bernard has created.

[Three Storms]

Mr. Bernard is running a new scam. He's putting drivers on late fee payment plans that add extra profits for him, and what drivers need to pay each day is so muich they need to work a good 12 hours per day to make it.

[The Chad]

Wow, sounds like Yellow Cab runs the company like a third world country. We need to send in NATO to straighten them out and overthrow the Dictator Mike Barnard!

[Damion]

Or drivers could just pay what they agreed to pay for the services they received, and it wouldn't be an issue.
