Due to the nature of this I was warned not to drive. As it was a busy time of day I booked my cab with Cresta the day before. Despite numerous phone calls to their office my cab didn’t turn up and the clinic were forced to cancel my appointment and put me back on the waiting list. Very unreliable service from Cresta. As a follow on from this I emailed Cresta with my complaint. That was over 2 weeks ago and they have still not even taken the time to reply. I would give them no stars if possible. ### 1/5 — You guys are a joke *2022-09-12, version 33.5.37* Literally waited over 2hrs for a taxi from the hospital. You might as well closed down the whole business, plus your drivers are so rude. ### 1/5 — Crap! *2022-06-09, version 33.5.37* Book a taxi through the app but they can’t carry out the job!! Waste of time! ### 1/5 — The worst service ever *2022-05-21, version 33.5.37* If you care about your money never book this company,I book a ride for an estimate price between £9-10.60 and when I arrived my destination they charge me almost £13.the driver call the call center and they said I need to pay the final price and that they don’t care about the estimate price and he said that they chafe me for every traffic light stop 30-40p.Trust me never use it ! ### 1/5 — Never using again. *2021-12-17, version 33.4.27* I don’t know what happened because I used to use cresta before uber was popular and it was amazing. Never late, always great friendly drivers and now it’s horrible. I had somewhere to be at 6 o’clock so I pre booked the minibus 2 hours early and I did it for half 5. It was 10 minutes late so I rang up and they said it would be another 10 minutes so I waited. It’s now 6:15 and it still isn’t here. What’s the point in pre booking if the taxi isn’t gonna be here on time?? It even charges a booking fee. ### 1/5 — Weird driver’s *2021-10-22, version 33.4.21* If your looking to pay by card forget it they won’t pick your ride rattling guys ### 1/5 — Poor functionality *2021-06-20, version 33.2.7* This app is not fit for purpose. When booking a ride, the app will glitch multiple times and when you have finally secured a ride, the app will then notify you that they are still looking for a driver. Once this error has passed, there is now the issue of the map glitching between your current location and Algeria! ### 1/5 — Sort app out *2021-05-24, version 33.2.3* Worst app I have ever used and the taxi drivers have terrible attitudes, they also stick on 30/40p charges when you use your card by keeping the meter running! Had countless arguments with them ### 1/5 — No good *2020-12-10, version 33.0.12* Booked and paid for a taxi on here and got the text to confirm booking and found out 15 minutes later itd been cancelled. Rang up and asked why and they said they just cant send the taxi. I got my money back but what kind of excuse is that and why accept the booking in the first place and make me wait 15 minutes? ### 2/5 — Quoted price never right *2020-09-19, version 32.1.19* Price quotes is at least 30% lower than actual fare. Drivers are scammers ## Frequently asked questions about CrestaCars Mcr ### What services does this app offer? This app allows you to book taxis, minibuses, and wheelchair-accessible minibuses.
