### 1/5 — Terrible service.

*2026-06-02, version 36.9.0*

Their taxis can take ages even though the app says a wait time of approx 15mins you can wait over 40mins for a taxi.

### 5/5 — Muhammad is a legend

*2026-03-14, version 36.9.0*

Our driver was the best driver, so polite, punctual. We had a lovely chat

### 4/5 — Map

*2026-03-05, version 36.9.0*

You need to improve the map. Either allow us to drop a pin on where we desire to be picked up, because when drivers don’t read the street signs and only follow the given GPS, a lot of them get really rude about it.

### 5/5 — Reliable

*2025-12-19, version 36.9.0*

Never have any problems with my bookings.

### 1/5 — AVOID: Added extra charges after quoting different price

*2025-08-31, version 36.9.0*

I would avoid this app. I used it to book a trip and was quoted a certain price only to find that additional charges had been added on afterwards. It did not show what these were for but apparently could be due to waiting, tolls etc. I was out for my taxi at the booked time and we had a clear run to my destination with no traffic nor tolls/fees so I don’t know why they should automatically be able to charge me extra on top of the quoted fair without justifying what the additional charge is beforehand. Might as well just give them free access to my bank account to take as much as they like. Dishonest fiddle in my opinion.

### 1/5 — Arrival time

*2025-07-25, version 36.8.0*

It takes way too long to find drivers it’s frustrating

### 5/5 — Awful when updating

*2025-06-17, version 36.6.0*

When updating it signed me out ‘for security’ then wouldn’t open again for me to sign back in. Deleted it instead as can’t be done with all this stuff causing issues when just trying to book a taxi

### 5/5 — Great service

*2025-06-04, version 36.6.0*

Really easy app to use and service is great many thanks

### 1/5 — Stealing your metrics and gaining favour

*2025-04-06, version 36.6.0*

Classic either fail or tactics.. 100,000 notifications?! …You are clearly cheating the system and poorly managing your app. Not to mention another company’s driver took a booking then refused to take someone, allegedly an “app” issue. Idiots.

### 1/5 — Spam??

*2025-03-31, version 36.6.0*

I kid you not I had 10,000 notifications over the course of a week. Cleared them then 100,000 in 3 days. I have screenshots but I’m unsure how to attach them. This is ridiculous 😭
