I have both apps and they had a ride available just now within a 20 minute time frame. You can also schedule rides in advance. I would advocate having both apps as Lyft just wanted $160 for the same ride to the airport (MCO) that Uber wanted $43 which is contrary to post #7 but sometimes it works like that. It all depends on where you live, etc. Some offer first time rider discounts. I do not believe you now need a credit card to setup an account as you can use Uber gift cards available at Publix for example. I have been both a rider and driver and never had an issue with a credit card being compromised nor heard of others having an issue as it all resides with the Uber app not the driver.
