Oh my goodness where to start with this place. So as another road user I had the misfortune of…read morecoming across one of this firms drivers today in a petrol filling station and honestly, after he used the filling station to cut through at speed nearly taking me out, then decided to put his window down and verbally abuse me, call me disgusting and derogatory names, swearing and abusing me I truly am disgusted. He was asked by a man who overheard this what he said. The man made it clear he had heard what was said. The driver ignored him. The passenger in my car also said something but was ignored. My passenger was a male. It is obvious this driver gets his kicks from shouting at and abusing females. Absolutely disgusting, down right disrespectful behaviour and I would honestly highly recommend steering clear from this company. Please also be aware. I phoned the business and was told there was no manager. There was someone shouting the responses in the background telling the lady who I was on the phone to what to say. Being that I was not far from the firms "Registered Business Address" I decided to go to the location as I truly was horrified by the drivers behaviour and wanted to put in a complaint before it came to this. The address DOES NOT EXIST. Please note that the address that this firm use is the address of something called "Gazza's Gaff" which on the day was totally closed. All the shutters down and absolutely no sign of anything there. We asked 4 people in the area, 3 who were local business owners. One directly next door to the so called location of the taxi rank. This was not the address and no one had EVER heard of it. It looks like this is potentially being run from someone's house? Now please note this is NOTHING to do with the Covid-19 situation as you would still have seen a premises there albeit closed. However there was absolutely no sign of this ever existing. Please be very cautious ahold you use this firm. However I would strongly advise against it. Having read the reviews left on many other platforms this truly is not an isolated incident.

I would like to say a massive thank you to one Amber Car driver who took my father in law who lives…read morenear Burley Rd in Leeds from the pub home yesterday. He fell out of the taxi drunk as he slipped and got his leg caught in the taxi and the taxi driver got him to the hospital safely as he had cracked his head open on the kirb and this was at no fault at all to the driver nor Amber cars he is just a liability to himself as he drinks too much. Without the help of this driver things could have been a lot worse. Thank You So Much !!!

After several issues with Amber Cars over the years, I have to say that they are totally useless…read moreand unreliable. I have been left waiting for over half an hour for a taxi to pick me up after work as their driver decided to pick up a group of girls that ordered a taxi 15 minutes after we did. A member of my family ordered a taxi a day in advance to get to a hospital appointment, but said taxi never showed up. When we rang them, we were told that it wouldn't be coming as it was during prayer time. If they had let us know that they wouldn't be available at that time, we could have made different arrangement, but ended up panicking to get there on time. We've also ordered a taxi to take an I'll pet to the vets, only for the car to turn up and refuse to transport animals despite us specifically mentioning that we needed a driver that would take pets! Also, in 2022 when cash usage has dropped in favour of cashless payments because of covid, refusing card payments seems a little backwards.

I used to get a taxi 6 or 7 times a week with these guys but now it is only once or twice. The drivers are really friendly and know me by name and always talk to me and have a chat with my mum as well if she is with me. The girls on the phones are great too and I only have o ring them up and they recognise my voice and ask if I am going home or if I am at home and then hey presto two minutes later they are there already.

When you're at an event in a sort of 'underground' space, which no taxi driver is likely to know…read moreabout, my first move is to walk to somewhere recognisable and call for one. Having trotted out from Full Circle's first cabaret evening, donned up in half cabaret clothing ourselves, Natalie O and I made our way to Napoleon's Casino to call a taxi. (For some reason, I'd thought walking to town was a good idea, but I was wrong.) In any case, since Gee Gees taxis refused to take me to Headingley (Er, what?) she called me a Premier car. Happily, one turned up within 5 or 10 minutes to speed me home. The chap driving was lovely, and although kept checking which route to take meaning he didn't know Leeds too well, I preferred that to being taken the long route and having to pay extra! We had a fab little natter about his kids, which made the journey disappear in no time, and it cost a very reasonable price. All things considered, on the basis of that journey, I am a fan.

Avoid this company if you have somewhere to get to on time!!!…read more We prebooked a cab to go to a wedding. I ended up having to call to check its status only to find it was running 15min late! I ended up speaking to the hotel and got another cab within 2 minutes. Out of courtesy I called Premier to tell them we've found another company only to be met by much anger that I was cancelling. Very rude and poor customer service; we definitely will not use them again and will not recommend to others.

I use Blueline as my taxi service, whenever I travel by taxi in Leeds. As a whole, they are pretty…read morereliable, and rarely do you wrong. I do, however (living fairly further away than your average student), recommend calling before the jouney, just to ask for a quote. There are taxi drivers who cheekily ask for more money than the company actually allows, just to make money for themselves. If this happens, I'd threaten to call their comapany (as recommended by the main office), which tends to bring the prices right back down. I'd also recommend asking the main office what the norm cost is for your own area (say, into town etc) before getting into a cab, and that goes for any cab in Leeds, as well as this particular company (though this company is pretty well behaved), just so you know that you aren't being ripped off, especially when it's late at night, and everyone wants to go home. I find the drivers, on the whole, very friendly and honest, and I will use them time and time again.

Now I know that speedline having speed in their name may get confused but nearly running me off the road, on a 30mph road, when they were doing I'd say in excess of 45, not to mention the poor old guy this idiot nearly run over, failed to stop at 2 red lights and seems to get mixed up the roundabout rule of give way to the right (Not give way to taxis) so if this isn't enough and you fancy being a 'passenger' for one of these drivers, then fair enough, all I can say is hang on for dear life! Apologies for those taxi drivers who aren't actually like what I put above, unfortunately they seem few and far between mind!

Despite the fact that me and my friends have had numerous undesirable experiences with this taxi…read morefirm, we find ourselves constantly using the company time and again, simply because they are the most taxi firm in Leeds and always have a taxi available when other firms do not. The fact that a taxi is always available from Arrow is one of the only positive aspects of the business - they are renowned for overcharging, especially for shorter differences such as Headingley to Leeds city centre, and the drivers are mostly unfriendly. On more than one occasion, we have contacted them in advance, asking for a six-seater people carrier to be told that one is on its way. Yet lo and behold, two four-seaters turn up in place of one six-seater, meaning the company makes more money and the customer spends more. I would recommend Premier or Amber over Arrow, but with the state of the taxi industry in Leeds (there are barely any black council cabs unlike London or Liverpool) there is little to choose between all the private hire taxi firms; you just have to bite your tongue and pay the extortionate prices. Or walk.

In addition to Leeds, First provides the bus system transportation for York. During my two days…read morethere, I had the opportunity to ride a couple of the buses in York. Every one of them was clean and smooth and quiet. What I found particularly useful was that my bus was staffed by a "bus host" - when boarding, you would take your seat and he came to you to sell the ticket, make change and answer any questions. I am guessing that this helps with times at stops, since the bus doesn't wait on a long queue of folks. Many of the stops had cover from the rain, reasonably accurate "next bus" information and maps of the system and the individual routes. £3.70 for the day, a good deal.

First buses and I have a tenuous relationship. It's like really gross tasting medicine. You need…read moreit, and rely on it to keep going, but my lord it tastes bad and you don't enjoy taking it. That's a pretty good summary, right there. If my car share isn't coming in to work, I *have* to use First buses. Since there isn't a direct bus to my work I have to get two buses. And at peak times, in student season, for love nor (exorbitant, extortionate, excruciating) money my first bus does not arrive on time. This in turn means that I *always* miss my second bus, and due to the route I have to take, have to wait an extra half an hour at a stop without a shelter for my next bus. You can imagine how naffed off this makes me. Add to that the aforementioned crazy fares, which seem to be ever rising with each passing year and I'm not all that enthused about First. Whilst the majority of drivers are reasonably friendly, there are a few who are consistently rude and impertinent, for absolutely no reason. I have bitten my tongue on many many occasions. Add to that the random element of public transport and the risk factor grows ever higher. Essentially, if you need to get to town pretty swiftly, the buses come every ten minutes - and those you can actually rely on. But even when it comes to this, there is a rival indie bus company whose fares are even cheaper. So, all in all, not much of a fan.
