Impressive service from one of the best private car companies in the area. Cars usually turn up…read morewithin minutes though it is a busy company, and from time to time the receptionist will say how long it will be before one is available. In my experience the taxi will appear before the stated time. All drivers are pleasant and hospitable and cars are kept clean and tidy. Identification badges are always clearly on display for the drivers. Driving standard is also high and I have been well able to relax on any trip. I usually find prices to be cheaper than many other companies and great value for money.

Got a taxi from Wellman cars from chalterhault park to my house from reg number FD58DAW. My son is…read more3 year old and had to climb to his seat because he's small. We had just left a park and my son left a couple of muddy footprints on his seat due to the climbing. It will come off with a wet cloth!His car was already filthy before this.This taxi driver spent the whole journey making us feel uncomfortable. Snide remarks and shouted a couple of times as well because of this couple of footprints on his seat. I kept my mouth shut thinking if I said anything right now he would turf us out and leave us abandoned. After getting told that all their taxi drivers have card machines he told me I couldn't use card and forced me to go to a bank machine. I nip out to grab money from the machine and he's in the back of the car doing something. He was holding my son down and grabbing him forcefully. He dropped us off and shouted at me as well then has complained that I stood up for myself eventually after having to deal with any of this. Wellman trying to cover up instead of deal with it. Haven't even heard back from them or had as little as an apology.

unreliable for advance bookings! I pre-booked a taxi to take…read moreme to an event, allowing over half an hour leeway for a 20 minute journey, just in case of delays. The taxi arrived 50 minutes late so I missed the event. When I complained, I was advised that when you make an advance booking, central taxis guarantee a taxi but not what time it will arrive!! (kinda defeats the point of booking a taxi in advance!) Not the service you would expect of a company that calls itself 'Edinburgh's most reliable taxi company'!
