Blue ribbon taxis offers shuttle service to the nearest airport. You loop up online reviews for blue ribbon taxis and find that there are 17 reviews, six of which report that the taxi never showed up. Is this a biased sampling method for obtaining customer opinion on the taxi service?
If so, what is the likely direction of bias?
explain your reasoning carefully.

In order for a sample to be considered biased, some members of the total population must have either a larger or lower chance of being included in the sample. In this case, your sample contained 17 reviews. It is biased because it was completely voluntary and customers who have a bad experience with a product or service generally tend to express more their dissatisfaction than satisfied customers show their satisfaction.

In marketing, there is a saying that unsatisfied clients talk bad about our product or service 4 times more than satisfied clients. I'm not sure if this saying is exact or not, but all marketing research point in the same direction.

This means that clients that did not get a good service or got no service at all, are more likely to post a review about the company than clients who got a good service. This is what makes the sample biased.
