Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

We had scheduled a 7 passenger van for the airport the night before, prepaid, were assigned a driver who showed as 7 min away, and then at the pick up time the ride was cancelled with no warning or replacement driver offered and the price difference to rebook was 30 pounds more. Very disappointed in the service and lack of commitment to customers.

The app works well overall, but there’s actually no way to access support. No way to send a message, no areas in the app to start a support request, nothing. It’s annoying since many drivers 'soft cancel' your rides by saying they are here when really they’re far away to make YOU cancel and there’s nothing you can do about it.

The app functions great, it is an ideal service. However, many drivers will demand cash even if you already selected a cashless payment. This will result in having to argue and waste time with the driver, who might try to take you to the police.
