Taxis in OL5

Rubbish!!!I navigate driver and he charged me £3 more!!! Don't call them,just stealing money!!!

Further to my last message - train station, by the way, not training - the traffic was remarkably quiet in both directions. So they were lying through their back teeth (if they have any).

Ordered taxi for 3.30 from training station. Waited for 15 mins. Phoned and told unloading. They said would get driver to phone. I phoned again 10 mind later. Told he was stuck in traffic and another twenty minutes. Useless and rude staff. My family and I use to use service a lot. Last several times they've been late and unapologetic. Will never use them again.

Absolutely shambolic service. Taxi ordered the previous day to go to Manchester piccadillly. Didnt turn up kept being told it was 2 minutes away. Had to keep phoning as they still hadnt arrived 20 minutes later. Asked for a reduced fare if they did eventually arrive got £2 off!!! Then was so worried I wouldnt make the train asked if they would refund the train ticket if I missed it. They said they might refund part of the price!!!i said I would expect a full refund if I missed the train. Ive nit missed part of the journey. Then to cap it all I heard another operator talking to my so called taxi driver who was supposed to be with me by this time 15 minutes ago saying well shes kicking off what wonderful customer service!!!!!! Never again will I use the company. Have used it for nearly 20 years to go to the airport but they have definitely lost a valued customer and I will be positively encouraging others to avoid this DREADFUL taxi company.

My friend and I used Cartax to pick me up from Manchester airport. The plane was slightly delayed. I wandered round the airport lounge looking for the taxi driver, to no avail. Normally taxi drivers identify themselves but he was no where to be found. I eventually found him by WHSmith and when I told him who I was. He said to me 'you were lucky, I was just about to leave'. What would I have done then?

Terrible, worst taxi service ever Driver was falling asleep, he was an hour late Speeding on the motorway Doesnt deserve a star

Excellent service school run. Drivers are helpful and provide a service which is expected from a firm. Well done

It was a rainy day we have two children aged 2 and 4. We were visiting a farm and were taken to the station. When we arrived the driver did not help me take out our bags from the boot but complained how dirty his car was. He started to clean the seats and did not stop the meter, so it has charged us an extra pound till he finished with the cleaning. First of all, we took reasonable care to keep the car as clean as possible. Obviously the wellies would have leave some muddy spots and it was not a big deal. Secondly, it should have been expected by the driver. Thirdly, he should have stopped the meter when we arrived. Fourthly. if he was so keen of his car, he should have put some protection when he arrived on a rainy day on a farm and seeing two small children popping into his car. Fifthly, he should have clean the car after he unpacked our bags and we paid for trip. Lastly, he never should complain in front of a happy customer. Now he has missed the extra tip.

I have been using this taxi firm for 2 years would recommend to everyone.

Very cheap nice cars and clean very polite staff

Have used this service for a long time, quality has gone down a lot recently. Driver 74 was confrontational and rude. Told him to wait a second to let us take the groceries inside, he started putting our food all over the road. Today we were waiting at the end of a street, he drives right past us even though we wave him down and starts arguing when we finally catch up. He was given the wrong address but we did correct the mistake with the taxi service and he shouldve seen us waving.

Do not touch this comapny with a bargepole. Have used them often for years, however they have a guy (think his taxi number is 388) who refused to let us pick up some coins that were dropped onto the taxi floor. He said 'it's in my cab, so it's mine'. Now whenever we phone Delta Cars, if he turns up, he puts two fingers up, and drives off . We then have to wait for another taxi. How this guy still has a licence is beyond me! Avoid at all costs.This issue is currently being dealt with by Oldham Council.

Taxi driver lied to us and got other people in his taxi and lied to our faces and said that it was for another person. Rang him 3/4 times and ignored my phone call. Worst taxi service Ive ever had I ever had I recommend cartax instead.

Ordered a taxi at 8.06 for 9am as had an appointment at 9.15!! Taxi turned up at 9 25am!! No apology!!!!!shocking missed my appointment!!!

Worst of the worst close them down

My mum rang this number to order a 7 seater taxi they said it was unavailable so she rang a different taxi number assuming it was a different taxi service and asked for a 7 seater again. Turns out the other number was there number aswell and the man was very very very rude to her raising his voice saying we've already told u once we don't have a 7 seater why u calling again. My mum apolgised and hung up. Both numbers were 0161628700/01616241212. I'm very angry at the way my mum was spoken to and immediately ordered her a taxi from limeline who were so helpful and informative. Avoid at all cost!!!!

Very rude driver. Took the longest possible route. I was sick after the ride.

Picked up 3 times this week. First 2 times was same driver, lovely and courteous. Today picked up and windows fully down and soon realised that the driver had a very strong smell of cannabis. Professional drivers smoking drugs then collecting fare payers?! Disgusting!! Will not be using again.

Used this taxi firm a couple of times.Drivers rude,watching YouTube videos whilst driving,swearing infront of my young daughter. Disgraceful unprofessional behaviour

Very dirty cars,I will not want anyone to use this firm.

Very slow servive and expensive

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

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...

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.

terrible service , made us wait 45 minutes from Mri hospital and was rejected by many of the drivers because it was local fare. Never ever will i use them again.

Taxi was getting on a bit but still a good smooth ride from a safe driver much appreciated late at night when your tired.

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!

At 10am this morning I booked a taxi for 3:15pm. At 3.05 when the taxi had not arrived I called the taxi company and asked if the taxi was on its was and was told there was no taxi on it way. After explaining i have an appointment in 10 minutes, the lady said she would send one "urgently". Finally at 3.25 the taxi arrived, i was now already 10 minutes late for my appointment. Needless to say the surgery could not fit me in and I missed my appointment. This means not only have I paid £11.10 for a taxi and lost out from an hours of paid work, I now have to do the same this again. I would understand this being a problem if I had not already booked the taxi but as seen as I had booked 5 hours in advance, I was very disappointed and will be looking for a different local taxi firm for all future taxi requirements including my second trip to the surgery. Todays experience was not even worthy of a 1* rating but that is the lowest option available.

I booked the taxi through the app and it showed me £17,80 when I got to my destination they asked me for £35... very bad costumer service so disrespectful! Definitely dont recommend

Don't use this company. I booked on the app for hours before I needed the taxi and the time I wanted it for a doctors appointment. It didn't show up and the idiot who answered the phone was plain rude. I used these to travel to see my mum in Cheadle, but they have now lost my business.

My mum was stood 45 minutes for a taxi with my niece age 6 and my nephew age 4 in the rain, taxi finally arrived and refused to take them because they was WET!! if I could rate 0 stars I would this was an absolute joke!! Black Toyota Prius if your the driver, I hope you break down and no one helps you, you inconsiderate A hole!!

They were 30 minutes late and didnt even apologise. Also the driver was very rude I will never use there service again it cost £44 and didnt even show up on time. When returning I got an Uber instead it was £23 and the driver was very kind. So save your money and use Uber instead.

I have no idea how this joke of a company is still in business, I get a taxi every evening at the same local, I ring in enough time so that Im not waiting too long. Tonight was the final straw, i rang the automated service said my taxi would be there in 1 minute, 5 mins later Im still waiting despite the fact that I had already been waiting 15mins. So I called the back to idiot on the phone what the automated response kept saying the next minute the jobs worth Is shouting at me like Im some under thumb inferior wife because I wasnt let him get away with fobbing me off. Then I get in the taxi and the driver is trying to tell me he has to go the long way round to get to me like that is my problem and he continues to argue with me. These people are probably use to women putting up and shutting up when theyre in the wrong. Joke of a firm. People if you want a decent taxi firm that arrives on time ring z cars.

Prebooked a taxi at half 1 for it to arrive at work for 4pm. Its now 4:50pm and I am still waiting for a taxi after it getting cancelled because the driver “couldnt find me” when my work place has a neon orange sign that cant be missed. This happens every single day.

what a wonderful taxi driver,....must say one of the nicest drivers I have met......will definitely book gmx cabs again.......he was kind, curtesous.....and will definitely book again....

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

Crap taxi firm never come on time and when book they say 5 mins but dont come till half and hour and when you ring Back to ask they get aggressive told them owner many times he doesnt care either. Rather pay £1 extra and use another firm.

Great service. Drivers are prompt and polite. Highly recommended!

I ordered a taxi came within few mins which is pretty good be using these again

Never ever ring this taxi firm they are racist perverts all drive using there mobile phones no care to weather they crash or cause and not one of these driver's know any English threatening behaviour it's disgusting so if you don't want any of this do not book this firm

AtoB tommyfield cars is really bad go to any car company taxi but not this one its so bad , I rang tacxi and this weirdo said am not gna send you a taxi cz we don't have your number wth ? I was calling from a school reception who don't but I gave him my obile number and he still said no I dnt know for what reason but he just wouldn't send a taxy its so silly,they dnt know what theyr doing,theyr so rude on the phone especialy when I kept saying why why he just would give me a proper answer just not wanting to send a taxi lolzzzz how weird its abolsutley horrible really shocking and disappointing ,never go with ATOB!!!!

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.
