### 1/5 — No collection, no support, got charged to cancel

*2025-07-02, version 34.20.0*

Booked a taxi from the airport, said 1 min wait. No driver assigned after 10 mins. Tried to call but there was no answer on the support line. In the end got charged £2.50 to cancel and go with another firm.

### 5/5 — Budget Taxis Newcastle

*2025-02-01, version 34.17.0*

Very efficient and reliable

### 5/5 — Budget Taxis

*2024-02-01, version 34.11.0*

I always find Budget Taxis are always reliable, this is particularly important for a disabled customer. Driver’s always make sure I get to my destination safely. The drivers are always attentive to my disability and park as close to my destination as possible.
Fairly priced, would highly recommend.

### 5/5 — The App

*2023-11-24, version 34.10.0*

Wish you could amend your destination as sometimes the address is numbered and is confusing ie Brewster Faye’s at Derwenthaugh was displayed as 9999 then the name of the road

### 5/5 — Good driver good journey

*2023-09-10, version 34.7.0*

Spot on

### 5/5 — Great app

Great app, great taxi’s. Would recommend every time A++++

### 5/5 — Very convenient

*2023-07-01, version 34.5.1*

If this isn’t the most convenient taxi app then I don’t know what is all it is is a click of a button and then boom next thing you know your taxi cab is here I really enjoy booking taxis on this app I highly recommend downloading this app it is easy for you and for your life

### 1/5 — Pre-booked taxi didn’t show up

*2023-06-10, version 34.5.1*

Pre booked a taxi from the airport and waited an hour before cancelling because it didn’t show up. Called the number and got the typical ‘will be with you in 10-15mins’ still didn’t show up. Ended up cancelling and ordering an Uber because my 2 young children were stood in the cold until after 1am when I pre booked for 11.40pm. Won’t be using again.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2023-02-10, version 34.4.0*

Life saver ,

### 5/5 — Good guy

*2022-12-22, version 34.4.0*

Top bloke!
