### 3/5 — Hull Cars are a good firm, decided to try the app

*2025-03-28, version 3335.3.9*

Had some issue re pets. I don't mind paying extra. But some drivers lack awareness with pets even if i call the firm to tell them. Then some get annoyed with me because of the cat, which I understand some pet owners are not more careful, but my cat sits on towels, in her carrier on my knee. The app doesn't even let us tell the driver we have a cat or dog which would be a useful feature. I have social anxiety so i prefer not to take a bus. So I've had a few frustrating encounters with drivers. Please add the option to add pets to the journey.

### 4/5 — Hull Cars are a good firm, decided to try the app

*2022-07-03, version 3333.5.41*

The drivers are usually great. Ours was very quick today and friendly. 

Hope the app works. I’d rather just pay the driver than use the app since I’ve seen concerns elsewhere about paying for taxis via app, so I’m not sure at the moment. It’d be nice to track cars like with Drive.

I did have the validation token error when I registered first time, but it turns out you need a text with a code before you can register. On my second attempt I got the code. I think this is something that needs fixing so that you get the code as you register or it’s going to frustrate people. 

Let’s see how this goes. :)

### 1/5 — Option to pre book has disappeared

*2022-07-02, version 3333.5.41*

New version of the app looks great, but there’s no longer an option to pre book so we’ve had to use another app. Please fix it!

### 1/5 — New app doesn’t allow pre booking

*2022-06-25, version 3333.5.41*

Hull cars was my favourite taxi firm in the city and the previous app worked really well.

Ever since the new app update it’s slow, janky, frustrating to even select your destinations (the train station isn’t a selectable option, and my partner’s house isn’t even on the map, so have to select a pickup point a short walk away!). 

But worst of all is not even providing an option to prebook for a certain time or day. I travel by train a lot and not being able to book a taxi at the actual train station for a set time is a deal breaker. 

Simply no choice but to change firm. 
Terrible app

### 1/5 — Latest update

*2022-06-12, version 3333.5.41*

Absolute rubbish!

Can even pre-book from app

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-06-10, version 3333.5.41*

I’ve been using this app and it was working fine. Since the updates I’m not able to login and when I ask to send links to my email. I never receive it! Trying to re-register not letting me! I asked the company they have no idea!! Maybe the app developer can help! Thanks

### 3/5 — Hi

*2022-06-08, version 3333.5.41*

Try booking a car on the app it won’t let you change the time you want it for it just says request now when I don’t want it for now it might be a glitch uses this app a lot of very good it was working the other day but not today

### 1/5 — Completely Useless App

*2022-06-04, version 3333.5.41*

This app does not work, not even able to register due to a ‘token validation’ error. Removed and reinstalled and no change, this was on an iPhone. This company is either no longer trading or are complete fools when it comes to app design. It should be removed from the Apple store. Find another taxi company and save your time.

### 1/5 — No data transfer with latest app update?

*2022-05-23, version 3333.5.41*

The previous version wasn’t the best but at least I could log in and make a booking. The latest update seems to have abandoned all existing user data and I had to register a new account… They also got rid of Apple Pay support? This app update is so botched and backwards… Agree with other users that we desperately need Uber in Hull!

### 1/5 — App won’t let me book taxi

*2022-05-20, version 3333.5.41*

Guess I’ll just use another service in hull

### 1/5 — New App is WORSE!

*2022-05-13, version 3333.5.41*

New app is worse than the old one!
👎 Cannot Amend Bookings anymore!
👎 Cannot add waypoints / multiple stops to journeys anymore!

Rely on the app and used it a lot because of these features! Now looking into alternate Taxi services!

### 2/5 — Poor app

*2022-05-12, version 3333.5.41*

Lots of problems with this app and not that user friendly trying to pre book.
Usually late on a night it just says ‘there is a problem’ as they they just switch it off at peak times when it should just say ‘there are no taxis a available due to demand’!
Once booked, it actually works ok.

### 1/5 — New update

*2022-05-10, version 3333.5.41*

Can’t pay by card anymore and option to add a card isn’t there

### 1/5 — Takes money

*2021-11-04, version 731*

The app is only good when it works which is very rare. Most times when trying to book i pay and then it says booking unsuccessful. I go to check my bank account and the money has been taken out and then I don’t have enough to try to re-book the taxi and the money takes about a week to go back into my account.

### 1/5 — Taken over by Veezu, charged double the usual fare

*2026-01-06, version 3340.3.0*

Our school journey has always been £8.90 with Hull Cars. First trip with Veezu taking over and it was £17. Never again

### 1/5 — Booking

*2024-03-06, version 3334.6.5*

No point to book a taxi, they will never arrive.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

Just keeps crashing continuously

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2024-02-16, version 3334.6.5*

App is crashing all the time. 1 second and off the screen.

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2024-02-13, version 3334.5.11*

If you get a new phone forget about logging in again. Or using your number. It only lets you register a new account.

Garbage company. Turn up late, if at all! Wish we had Uber in Hull

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-05-14, version 3334.2.27*

Tried to book on numerous occasions. Never turned up.

### 1/5 — No Apple Pay/Card Payment option

*2023-03-12, version 3334.0.17*

Pretty much useless as I don’t carry cash. Is there another way to pay on card when in the taxi instead of cash?

### 1/5 — Code not arriving

*2023-02-28, version 3334.0.17*

Code does not arrive so cannot sign up

### 5/5 — Adding Card Payment

*2022-05-10, version 3333.5.41*

What is account I’d?  Thought it was what I sign in with and the same password. 

Looking at my account the password length isn’t what I’ve set. Tried changing it no good

What do I do?

### 5/5 — Card charges

*2022-01-16, version 735*

Excellent service this morning getting an urgent taxi for me, thank you

### 5/5 — App and service

*2019-04-07, version 330*

Used for the first time last night! Fantastic service, turned up on time, both drivers (going out and return) were pleasant and chatty appropriately. Impressed by app which let me track where the driver was, so didn’t have to stand in the cold. For a city without Uber, this firm is a godsend, and has needed a service like this for years! Makes me want to go out more 😂

### 5/5 — Timbo2

*2018-12-01, version 277*

Excellent Never Ever A Problem. ISO Company.
