Fabulous company with well presented…

Fabulous company with well presented uniform drivers. They charge no extra after midnight which most other companies do so that makes them the best. Lynx app is another great way for us to make journey bookings without call queues. Will continue to use and recommend to family & friends.

Pray on the drunk and vulnerable

Booked a taxi via phone through the office for a 3 mile trip I make regularly for £12 - (usually around £6/7 but it was slightly later.) When I got in the taxi he set the meter to £10 starting and insisted I gave him £20 cash or else the meter will be more. I said I had booked it and agreed £12 with the office. He just kept saying £20 making out he couldn’t speak English. When I said I was not paying £20 he got slightly aggressive so to ease the situation I said I’ll give you £15 mate and that’s it. After this the taxi ride was very tense and he was acting strangely. Luckily I didn’t give him my exact location I wanted to go. I believed he thought I was drunk because of the time I was traveling when I was just going to work. They obviously pray on vulnerable people. I also believed he turned his mobiles off so he could do the job cash in hand.

avoid if you want an easy life

My stress levels have gone through the roof since using this firm for my daily drop off at work. When the iOS app was upgraded near Xmas 2019 I was no longer able to take my daily journey on the meter, instead the app was trying to charge me nearly double the usual cost on a fixed fare! My usual fare of £8 had jumped to £15. I made arrangements with the office (bypassing the app) to have this overridden manually as they agreed the fare was unfair. However some of the drivers have been contacting the office prior to my pickup to have this overturned, simply to charge me the more lucrative fare. This has resulted in too many disagreements with their drivers, which is not what anyone needs at 6:50am each day. I will no longer use Lynx taxis as I’m constantly trying to mop up the mess created by their drivers through greed. I will take my regular custom elsewhere.

Overcharged

Overcharged. Partner was charged £40 to travel 11 miles, forced to pay by cash although pre-booked with card. Then card was also charged. Called to make a complaint was told I would be called back - no one called. Called them again and was hung up on. My partner shook by her experience with driver. Poor.
