Taxis in Ashton-in-Makerfield, Wigan, Lancashire

Never use this firm, booked a taxi nearly 8 hours in advance, to Wigan NW train station It never arrived, phoned the firm and left messages, no one called back or texted. I missed my train and my friend missed his last bus home. Total disgrace.

I have NEVER been let down by this company. They are the only taxi firm who are able to take me to work any time I ask and have enough drivers to also cover their school runs, when I have no car. Reasonable prices. All the drivers are very friendly. I wont use anybody else.

30 mins late being picked up. I don't mind 5 or 10 mins but 30 is too much.

Phoned 14 times this morning (9am) in a vain attempt to book a taxi. No one answered. I can only assume they weren't open but I wouldn't know as there are no opening times online. Abysmal service if you can call it a 'service'. I ended up missing my train and walking in the pouring rain to the station.

What a bunch of tossers drivers ok owners jumped up pricks

AVOID AVOID AVOID Supposed to be picked up at the airport at 12.30 am. Had to ring them 4 times each time just told a different lie. Would be there in 10 minutes ,then he's at the wrong terminal be there in 5 minutes. Lied to us for over an hour till we had to find another way home.DO NOT USE LIARS

Absolute rubbish!! Booked a taxi for the airport the night before. All seemed fine until the time we booked it for 03.30 am rang the company after waiting 10 mins. Told that there was no one on the way and no guarantee that there would be one either. Funny how that wasn't mentioned when we booked it. Was also told that that was a company policy.

Booked a taxi for 8.10 am the night before and was told at the time of booking that they would try to be as near to this time as possible and stated school runs as the reason why, even though it was school holidays at this time. So I thought even if they are 15 minutes late I will still be on time. The following morning at 8.30 still no taxi so I rang them and was told it would arrive as soon as they could but was not given a time. 8.50 still no taxi rang again and was told the same thing again. 9.10 still no taxi rang again and was told the same again. The taxi finally arrived at 9.20 so I was really late for work. This company never had any intention of arriving at 8.10 or anywhere near that time. I was told that I should have known because I was told that it may be late. No one books a taxi knowing it will be an hour and 10 minutes late! At no time did I get an apology. Absolute waste of time and you should use someone else. No customer care whatsoever.

Pre booked a taxi for 8am this morning on Saturday night no sign of taxi at 8.15 called company was told they was busy and one would be here soon. 8.21 I cancelled and had to call my boss to explain. DO NOT USE

Friendly service, used for dropping off and pick up on time for both.

a pleasure to use such a professional service.

Fantastic service, affordable and prompt.

Affordable, reliable, local family firm.

A great family run local company,first class service,always on time.Affordable,clean vehicles.

Agree with all the above really abrupt and rude staff (operators not taxi drivers)

Anyone wanting a reliable taxi firm, then DON'T use PEMBERTON TAXIS.We had a taxi booked at an arranged £50 fee to take us from Wigan to St Helens yesterday, an hour before we were due to be picked up I got a telephone call to say the taxi charge would now be £160 to take us, I don't think so love, fluff off. £30 in an Uber, thank you.

Pre booked a taxi through these jokers. Pick up in Wigan and drop off in St Helens which is a total of 11 miles. We booked a minibus as there are 6 of us travelling and we were quoted 49 pounds. All booked a day in advance but then 90 minutes before pick up, they phone us to tell me that we had been quoted an incorrect price and the fare was now going to be 140 pounds for an 11 mile journey.... 140 POUNDS..!! Be very careful if using these con artists, rip off merchants, scammers. AVOID THESE CROOKS AT ALL COSTS.!!

Why are they so mad when you ring up to order a taxi? Always rude and prices are extortionate. Try Britannia taxis instead

I ordered taxis to take us to/pick up from Standish a week in advance. Pick up was fine - on time & a pleasant driver. The return journey was a nightmare - 45 minutes late & had to ring several times before someone arrived - each time I phoned, I stressed that I had an 88 gentleman with me. Luckily, it was not raining - extremely unimpressed. The operator just kept apologising - not good enough - pre-booked taxis should be given priority. 'We are very busy' is not a good enough excuse.

Very poor services book taxi night before for Hospital appointment didnt turn when called said it was on its way where from only live two mins away. Will not use again.

My daughter was feeling unwell and it was raining so we rang to try and get a taxi very accommodating radio controller helped us straight away very grateful for the service

Used Hindley taxis for first time on Saturday. Went for night out with disabled husband and friends. Left cushion for his wheelchair in boot of taxi. The following evening came a knock on our door and it was the taxi driver who had found our cushionand brought it back to us. Thank you for fantastic service.

50 mins wait for a taxi to airport.....4 chase calls...each time it's 5 mins away.....

HINDLEY TAXIS IS A GREAT TAXI SERVICE,WITH FRIENDLY AND HONEST DRIVERS..

I personally live in Hindley and wouldn't use anyone else. Come when u expect them. Great for airport runs too :) thumbs up from me

Shocking attitude from operator after theyd let someone get in the taxi wed booked.

Awful. Taxi booked for 12.30, turned up 65 minutes late, office rude and dismissive, even hung up once. Made alternative arrangement, eventually arrived after we had left and driver rang complaining we weren't there!

The worst ever .over a hour late leading to have to cancel my birthday trip to Lancaster thank you. would not mind to much but even the operator lied .you will never see my business againe

AVOID THIS RUBBISH FIRM AT ALL COSTS. Left my young son alone in the dark after saying taxi on the way, all by himself for nearly an hour. Then had the cheek to try and give me stick when I called chasing their "5 minute" taxi!! Overcharge, dangerous drivers, poor staff. Will be paying these a personal visit soon and see how mouthy there are face to face. AVOID

"Best taxi company in town"

Very rude man over the phone when ordering a taxi, was very sarcastic and refused to take us to a destination which was over 2 miles away! Very disgraced, I will be passing the word around and I will not be calling again. Disgusting attitude.

I must say I ring a taxi every morning for work and the taxis always turn up on time I couldn't fault the timing. Thank you!

Dreadful, pre booked a taxi early in the evening for 1am and by 1.30am they were still unable to pick us up without and confirmation of how long it would be. Absolutely disgusting poor level of service, something so simple done so wrong.

Roll on UBER coming to Warrington! Booked a taxi the day before to pick us up at the Waterside Inn, warrington at 11.45 to take us home. No show and waited for 30 minutes in the cold, when you ring to see where your taxi is you get an automated call saying it's on the way! Yeah, right! Never booking Harry's again, garbage service

The sooner UBER comes to Warrington and does this company out of business the better.

Rang ABBA for one of our patients. Patient left waiting for 40 minutes. Patient decided to cancel and catch the bus instead, and was very dissatisfied with the service. I can't recommend this company.

On the 17th of this month I had booked a train to London. This was to pickup a van Id bought. On the 15th I pre-booked a taxi. I booked 50 minutes before the trip “just in case” any issues. The journey to the train station being 10 minutes. I spoke to an actual person when booking. On the day at the designated time no taxi I didnt panic I gave them 5 minutes before ringing to chase up. I got through to an answering service “ Hi Phil we assume you are ringing about your taxi, we are just trying to allocate a driver at this time”. Or words similar. And for the next 1/2 hour thats all I got when ringing!! All my planning was a waste of time. I booked the train in advance at the cost of £60. I then re-booked for a couple of hours later for about £70. I booked Direct taxis to get me to the station, who actually turned up! And I continued my day.

DO NOT USE THIS TAXI FIRM EVER I booked a cab for 1130pm going from Lymm to Warrington before I read the reviews on here. I read the reviews and was not confident that the taxi would even turn up. I tried to book a different taxi firm but they were fully booked so had no choice. The taxi didn't turn up on time and when it was chased up a vague response was given to when it might turn up. Eventually after 20 mins of waiting we had to cancel the taxi and inconvenience someone else to do the journey. We received no apology from the company. Just all round poor company. DON NOT USE THIS TAXI FIRM EVER.

Very good taxi service. Always on time.

Worst taxis going. My son was late for school over half an hour because we booked a taxi and I didnt turn up, waiting and ringing for over 40 minutes for it still to not turn up. Worst taxis about
