Driver added extra charges claiming to have been waiting but we were there as cab arrived. We were given a price of 13.20 on the app and then driver drove a longer route home and charged 14.80 at drop off. I will go back to uber now!! ### 5/5 — Excellent service *2024-12-22, version 36.7.0* Thank you for booking us in at short notice during the Christmas party season! Great service, really reasonable price, friendly driver who turned up on time! Thank you for doing 4 stops so none of the ladies had to walk alone. ### 5/5 — Basildon to BILLERICAY *2024-12-16, version 36.7.0* Impressive taxi services from Wayne ### 1/5 — Spam app *2024-11-11, version 36.7.0* I haven’t even used this company yet and I’m getting multiple spam notifications a day. Deleted and I’ll use another firm ### 1/5 — The new update ruined it *2024-10-17, version 36.6.0* I use to love this app and use to use it frequently but unfortunately after the update,it almost never works for me. How come you invest in the update that doesn’t work!!!! ### 2/5 — The driver was on the phone all the way home *2024-05-16, version 36.1.0* Me, my mum and my sister had Toby carvery tonight and the driver who picked us all up was on the phone from the restaurant all the way home and me and my mum found it so rude plus he wasn’t interacting with any of us and the driver is called Tayyab ### 3/5 — Can’t reset my password! *2024-05-07, version 36.1.0* This app was really good until the update, I’ve typed in what I thought was my password but no luck I’ve then tried to reset my password but I never get the email and yes I have checked my spam and junk mail but with no luck. I’m hoping the developers of the app pick this up and can fix the problem. ### 5/5 — Excellent service *2024-04-20, version 34.5.10* I cannot recommend Value Cabs enough.
