### 1/5 — Sticking to Uber

*2024-04-17, version 4.3.1*

Made me miss three trains on three separate days, never using again. Unreliable.

### 2/5 — Still a poor app

*2023-06-12, version 4.3.1*

App is too reliant on the location services feature, and doesn't allow the user to search for an exact address, only a postcode, which is imprecise. Phone line now non-responsive, so will have to look elsewhere for taxi services. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Don’t use the app

*2021-11-02, version 4.3.1*

Don’t use the app - I booked in advance and it confirms it’s booked and then at the time you’ve booked the app says it’s searching for a taxi. Rang up for them to tell me they have no taxis in the area!

### 1/5 — App no longer works

*2019-09-25, version 4.3.1*

This is a reasonable taxi firm with a terrible app. It's always been intermittent. Now it hasn't worked for 3 weeks straight. If the firm was better they'd have wondered why bookings were down and got the app fixed.

### 1/5 — A booking isn't really a booking

*2016-10-19, version 4.3.1*

I booked two taxis for the next day, one for 8.20 to take me to a meeting and one to take me to the airport later. App worked fine and both bookings accepted - so far so good. In the morning, I got a notification that the booking had been accepted, but the app didn't show any cars nearby. Eventually (2 mins overdue), a taxi showed on the map at 1 min away. Then 2 mins away. Then 5 mins away. Called Mantax and they told me that as app doesn't show destination, drivers don't accept bookings in busy times. Taxi never came. Obviously, I cancelled the later booking too. A booking is not a booking with Mantax.

### 1/5 — Never worked

*2016-04-15, version 4.0.1*

Absolutely bobbins. The app never works and the firm are absolutely awful. Without a doubt the worst taxi firm in Manchester.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2015-07-12, version 4.0.0*

Poorly designed app. It sent the taxi to the wrong address, had to spend 10 minutes directing the guy to where I was. Then when he arrived it was a black cab, so I paid £10 for a journey that costs £5 in a minicab. Nice idea, but no.

### 1/5 — Unable to register

*2015-03-24, version 3.1.4*

The app requires registration before use; unfortunately it seizes up whenever I try to select my card type so I'm unable to use it.

### 2/5 — Poor support and updates

*2014-11-13, version 3.1.4*

The support for this app is non existent. Since iOS 8 future bookings are no longer possible. You are better off ringing.

### 1/5 — No longer works for future bookings.

*2014-11-05, version 3.1.1*

Was great until last iOS update.
