Taxis in Denton, Manchester, Lancashire

Booked a taxi 3 hours in advance. It was late by 10 mins. Called only to be told it will be another 20 mins. Told time is of the essence and they are in breach of contract. Not happy. I will never use this firm again.

Appalling service pre booked weeks ago for party off 11 to rail station to get train for sightseeing trip to London they stated would send minibus and car ,when booked , minibus never turned up so lost out on all train fares and sightseeing excursion tour nearly thousand quid or more now ignoring all contact for compensation don't use them they are cowboys

Appalling Never turned up Do not use these jokers.

Appalling service, don't use this company if you pre-book and expect your cab to turn up. I booked a 7 seater cab a week in advance to bring us home from a family dinner. When it failed to turn I rang the base and was told it would be over an hour late because all the cabs were in Manchester. I said that was unacceptable because I had a pre-booking and was told that if I had rung up for my taxi then I would have been told it would be an hour - but I had pre-booked !!!! I was given the option of two cabs but when I asked if they would honour the confirmed fare for the 7 seater I was told that I would have to pay more for both taxis. We eventually managed to get another company to send us a mini bus. Having read other recent reviews it seems this is a common occurrence.

Absolutely appalling service. Booked a taxi for 5:45pm to the airport. No one turned up. We rang at 6pm as they're 15 minutes late - no one answered - the phone was out of service or being hung up on me! We have had to ask a neighbour to take us last minute running 25 minutes late in rush hour traffic! Wouldn't even give this unreliable company one star if I didn't have to!

Terrible and unreliable - waste of time.

Booked mini bus to The Airport. Lovely polite operator Very helpful . Mini bus turned up bang on time . Really nice helpful driver. Mini bus was lovely & clean too. Would definitely use their service again. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent service to and from the airport. I wont be travelling with any other company from now on. Both drivers were lovely.

Booked a taxi last night to get come from my parents. Text message received to say look out fir white toyota auris. Waited outside also received automated call to state my car had arrived and i was waiting where the car should have been. Taxi was a "no show" and i ended up having to walk home. Terrible poor service i feel as a single woman left stranded

Utter rubbish. Female travelling alone. Ordered a can for 10pm from the train station. By 10:30pm the taxi still hadnt arrived. I called a neighbour to come and get me. Poor poor service. Rang them at 10:30 to politely cancel my taxi to be told ok. Will not use ever ever again.

Ordered a minibus for 12pm . Turned up 20mins late then had to stop to refuel further delaying journey. Best advice- if you need to be somewhere on time, order for half hour before you need to get there. Better still- AVOID THESE AMATUERS COMPLETELY !!!

I really dont understand how this company only has 2 stars. I always get Cavalier and use them at least 2 times a week for various things as I cant drive and often wake up late for work. Their drivers are friendly and are almost always here within 10 minutes of booking. Ive only ever had 1 real issue with cavalier since I started using them 3 years ago and the operators sorted my issue out almost immediately. Overall, a brilliant service

Always use Cavalier Cars when I visit for work. Always on time and drivers always very helpful. Cheap pricing too.

So yesterday I made a booking with Metro Taxi from Aldi hazel grove.. now remember Ive shopping!.. plus with my mum and her shopping!.. so taxi pulls up guy gets out.. had to ask him to put my bags in then when it came to my mums he went to shut the boot to us saying what are you doing we still have shopping?.. he looked and then got in the driving seat and let me put the rest of the shopping in the boot, baring in mind Im now I pain!.. I got in the car after doing this to find him on the phone to who ever and this was all the journey! anyway gets to mine and he says £4.60 well I then said shopping out first thank you!.. got out open the boot start taking the heavy bags out myself into my front garden!.. driver then gets out of car and goes to the boot only to take the heavy bags out and put them on the road, me .. erm look dont do that as I dont see the point because all your doing is making me stoop and my back is bad enough so leave them in the boot so its less painful for

Shocking service, rude staff and no taxi. Booked a taxi had a confirmation message. Waited 30 mins and no taxi. Rang back to ask where it was to be told I hadn't booked one! Then I was told another would be with me in 10 mins, again no show. Rang back and was told it would be 5 mins. Then I got a phone call from them. I answered and they hung up. Then got a text saying they had successfully cancelled my taxi. Rang back got some rude call handler who said I couldn't have a taxi as there weren't any. My auntie has used the company every week for years. So we said this is shocking and we were told we've never used the taxi service before because my number hadn't been used there, maybe because I rang and not the other person. In the end they hung up and no taxi came. Disgusting service. Booked an uber, 3 mins later in a taxi and on the way home

Pre booked taxis on several occasions 2 hours prior needing them and neither have turned up or been allocated a driver - this resulting in both children being over 45 minutes late for school. No acceptable when you've pre booked and they won't even answer the phones.

Booked Minibus begining of April for pick-up on 11/05/2018. Tried to confirm, no record of booking dispite having emails. Promised to look into it by Head Office and would ring me back, still waiting. Give them a wide berth.

These people told me it was a 20 minite wait for a taxi. 50 minites later still no taxi. I rang them back only to be told by a very rude lady that i will just have to wait. The customer service is terrible and their taxis turn up an hour late. Avoid this taxi service like the plague

Excellent taxi firm. I have used them for about 20 years at least once a week. Never had any bad experience with them. Always punctual, efficient, friendly, polite, helpful. Fares very reasonable and compare favourably with other taxi companies. Highly recommended.

Never ever will I use swift taxes in Stalybridge absolutely disgusting taking £10 off my 14-year-old daughter when it was supposed to be a £4 taxi journey the woman on the desk is absolutely rude and needs to get a new job I will never ever use this taxis firm ever again and will be telling everyone I no not to!

Very trusty, the only taxi firm my grandad used before he passed and the only taxi firm I trust.

The cheapest and most efficient taxi company i have ever dealt with. I would never use anyone else, keep up the good work guys A*****

Ordered a minibus and a taxi as we specifically needed it for a school trip I was organising, they said this would be no problem. Sent three taxis which meant we had to take three members of staff instead of two as we legally have to have a staff member in each vehicle. This is why we ordered a minibus and a taxi. This meant we were late for our event as we were short of lifts. Rang Swift and they were rude, unhelpful and weren't interested in assisting us. We will NOT be using them again. There are plenty of other decent taxi companies you can use round here.

website directs to Bradford.

Good taxi service like their drivers always smiling and talking with customers.Drive at good place and always charge me less.

On time and very reasonable rates especially to airports

Startax/Embassy/Z Cars or whatever you are calling yourselves today, you are absolutely disgraceful, we are stuck at the airport and being refused a taxi because your driver cant explain where he is, and this is a huge car park/a huge airport, both of us are Asthmatic, Ive already had an incident today due to how cold it is, and being sent on a wild goose chase around Manchester airport car parks, is not my idea of good customer service. I use your taxi firm all the time, and our pub puts a lot of business your way, and I cannot believe the way I have just been spoken to, when I tried to rebook a cab, my Husband was getting frustrated on the previous call as your driver wasnt making any sense at all. But to accuse ME of swearing is not only untrue, but an insult, the operator I spoke to refused to send another cab and hung up on me! Disgusting! I will be using a different firm from now on! #rude #ignorant #uncaring

Ordered a taxi for dental appointment taxi did not turn up when phones told dint have one available I booked this over a week ago

Just refused to take me from Etihad stadium to Longsight saying that they not covering this area. Etihad stadium is in Ashton! I can't trust this company anymore.

Just to let you know I frequently use radio cabs and the journey this evening from Stockport road to Hartshead, pickup at 11.13 was really something to write home about! The taxi itself was clean and well maintained and the driver was polite and courteous and efficient, he assisted me in and out of the taxi which due to arthritis can be a chore for me. All in all, it was a pleasure riding with him. Full marks well deserved. Thank you.

Ordered a mini bus from Burlington street given full address on the phone tonight and was waiting outside.. when we got a call saying it's out side when it was not.. It didn't even turn the right way and went to holy trinity church on Burlington street .. so we phoned up and when they finally answered the phone they said it's been cancelled because know 1 was outside.. so ordered it again and we was watching his just saying up the road.. saying he was out side when not.. so phoned again and he turned round and came down the road and his way of talking down to us telling us it was not Burlington street were we was and telling me I don't know my own address that I've lived at for over 10 years.. I told him we told u the address if u haven't been told it then it's not our problem... so my granddaughter was to afraid to go in the taxi.. so we cancelled it and went some where else... I will never use them again xx disgraceful the shouldn't even get a 1 star...

I have given up with this company - always late, rude, unreliable and also take you on tours of Manchester.

Terrible,rude and overpriced deffo wouldn't recommend

Avoid this company!! they are not serious at all. They told me the taxi will arrive in 20 min and it never came. I phone them back to complain but they did not care. don't waste your time!

Quick arrival, low fare prices, certainly worth calling up!
