### 2/5 — Unreliable and Misleading

*2024-05-22, version 3.0.10*

I used this service twice as their pre-booking prices are £10-£15 cheeper than Uber or Addison Lee.

I booked the night before, paid using Apple Pay and received a Booking Confirmation text message. 

However, I received no message about my driver details and I could not track them on the app. 

Each morning, I called the operator to ask them where was the driver as they were late. It turns out that the operator each time booked an Uber or Bolt driver after I called them. I was late to work on both occasions.

### 4/5 — Very good

*2022-06-13, version 3.0.8*

Used this service twice now for London airport runs - cheaper than Uber, can pay easily via Apple Pay, text updates when booked and when driver is en route, and turn up early / on time. V good.

### 5/5 — Great App. Easy Booking process

*2021-06-24, version 3.0.1*

The app is very easy to use and the booking experience was smooth and great

### 5/5 — Great service every time

*2021-05-16, version 3.0.1*

I use this app regularly for my longer trips. Like the fact you can prebook too. Never had an issue with drivers arriving on time. The app itself is pretty easy to use. I like the chat function and the driver location one too.

### 2/5 — App Does work with AMEX

*2019-12-08, version 2.3*

Please update the app so we can rebook cabs using an AMEX card. This is a basic requirement.

### 5/5 — Great service every time

*2019-01-23, version 2.0*

I used these guys when I came back from Holiday at Gatwick Airport and use them on a regular basis now. They never let me down and are reasonably priced

### 2/5 — Taxi with no headlights

*2018-12-29, version 1.2*

Although I have used the app for quite some time now regularly and only been let done a couple of time this morning my journey to the airport was SCARY. The car had no headlights and the driver was attempting to drive without the long beam to not disturb other drivers. As you can imagine this in the middle of the night is extremely dangerous

### 5/5 — Best app

### 1/5 — Poor

*2025-04-19, version 3.0.11*

Poor updates and keeps crashing and closing when trying to track driver.

### 1/5 — Total let down

*2025-01-24, version 3.0.11*

I pre-booked a cab to take me to a theatre performance. I received no notification that the cab was on its way, usually I am able to track it for 30 minutes before it arrives. I was unable to get through on the phone to the company.  I continued not to receive any communication. I waited until a quarter an hour after the cab should’ve picked me up still complete silence. I made alternative travel arrangements.. I am waiting to hear that my prepaid fare has been returned to me.

### 1/5 — Pick Up and Drop Off

*2022-09-03, version 3.0.8*

We had pick up from LHR Terminal 3.  Driver arrived on time and also system updated well before arrival.

Unfortunately the car was not cleaned from inside.  Driver was throughout the journey on phone.  He was not concern towards time nor observation while on drive.  Mobile for GPS was kept on his leg hence.

Car either didn’t had AC or the driver was not bothered hence we had to pull windows down.

Not good experience on way back from LHR which was completely opposite to when we had booked for pick and drop off to LHR while on holidays.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother- Cancelled on me without any notice

*2022-03-01, version 3.0.8*

I’d prebooked days before too.

### 1/5 — Wrong car sent

*2020-01-26, version 2.3*

I have booked an estate that is more expensive and a standard car came. The suitcase didn’t fit in the boot and was placed on the front seat. The driver was on the phone for the duration of the entire ride. Not great

### 1/5 — No trip no money back

*2020-01-15, version 2.3*

Hi I’m really disappointed I paid for 1 trip that the driver refuse to pick up me and they charge me for the trip , unbelievable!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — What a joke of a service

*2018-10-03, version 1.2*

They accept my booking yet then outsource the job to uber. Why would I use you then! Customer service person was super rude and I waited more than 20 mins after my pre set time
Absolutely don’t use this company there are many more services you can use just google

### 1/5 — Don’t recommend using this service

*2018-09-15, version 1.2*

They may waste your time by canceling your booking !

### 1/5 — Disgusted

*2018-06-08, version 1.2*

I pre booked a return taxi from Ealing to Buckingham Palace for a disabled veterans garden party . We were collected 10 minutes late : we had prebooked the return journey for 6pm imbetween 5.35 and 6 pm we had 3 phone calls saying there was a holdup and it would be about 1 hour . The 2nd call was to say it had been passed on to another company Will be here for 6pm. The last call said bad traffic be over 1.5 hours !! I said how come every other veteran had been collected and were only ones left !!   We proceeded to walk and we got another cab ASAP ... disgusting treatment of a forces veteran.

### 1/5 — Mobile phone verification process doesn’t work

*2018-05-12, version 1.1*

I asked the application to resend the code various times, but I never received a code. I then called and was wrongfully directed by customer support to use my phone number as the verification code. This was after having to explain to him at least 5 times that I wasn’t looking to schedule a ride, and I just needed a verification code for my mobile application. So far, completely useless app and customer service.
