I would never recommend this taxi service to my worst enemy!
Booked a taxi from the civic centre, which is a 2 minute walk, 3 hours before we actually needed it to make sure it would be on time. It was a Saturday so I made sure I'd stated the time and I knew there might be delays. Half an hour later I had a girl answer the phone and repeatedly say that they "couldn't guarantee a time" even though I said that I'd booked it at 9:15pm, for 12:15am, but they said they could not have guaranteed the booking from when we originally booked it. Then why give us the booking in the first place? My friends and I called up 5 times, with myself calling 3 times, and they just said they were busy and they'd have a taxi waiting for us. We had a woman who had recently given birth, and a man who was ill to the point where he couldn't walk far, and I stated that to them many times, but still nothing changed. At 1:25am my friend called and said we'd been waiting over an hour in the cold night of October, and they said they'd be there in 2 minutes. When they didn't turn up, we decided to make the short walk to the office where they said they were busy and didn't give us any reason as to why we never got our taxi. We waited at the office for 20 minutes, whilst a load of early 20-year-olds managed to get taxis that they never even booked, before we even got one! It wasn't until we got in to the taxi, over 1 and a half hours after our booking, that the taxi driver said he'd been given our booking under the same name twice, and it had been cancelled twice until we got to the office! There was no explanation as to why, but finally we got home! They're lucky they got the whole fare paid!
Such a good night out ruined by such a stupid taxi company. Will NEVER use them again, even if they're the last taxi rank on earth! read more
