CHEAP TAXIS IN OLDHAM, GOOD DRIVERS LOVE A2B CARS OLDHAM

great service highly recommend people who dont like them use another company as these are good lads i rather be in these taxis then any other

Didnt ride with these cars but accounted very dangerous driving by the driver of EX16 SZT. Excessive speeding, tailgating, and undertaking. Nearly took out the side of my car, definitely wasnt paying attention to the road.

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!!!!

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.

We had booked return. Written out all detais and to office Landsdowne Rd. On return pick up @ airport, rang ok be with you shortly. Waited half an hour, rang again..on his way, rang again ,no answer , after 1hour arrived. Text I'm on carpark. Where ? On carpark, but where ? We are outside arrivals with cases. Can you come over ? No not allowed, I'm on Carpark. We went over, walked up and down. Text him. What colour and make of car ? No answer. Finally located, by this time freezing cold 2-30 am in Jan. Disabled husband. I asked for help with cases in car....not allowed.Together we struggled to get cases in car. I said the service is terrible. Driver said I don't need to take you, don't be abusive to me.Terrible experience. DON'T USE THEM. NO STARS

Taxi stunk of weed I don't mind people smoking it in their own time home whatever but when a taxi turns up stinking strongly of weed when I have kids with is n absolute joke

Punctuality is not a word this firm is familiar with..Nor can drivers read simple sat nav directions . I to walk down a unlit narrow lane for forty five mins and driver could not find Standege foot road and he lived in Marsden

Its quite simple, if you want to book a taxi to take you somewhere, just DO NOT USE THEM! They wont turn up and they dont care. Wouldnt give them any stars at all

It is the most horrible taxi company in oldham,we called a taxi at home and half the road left us and we had to pay and said that another taxi will come and we waited 30 minutes

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!

Taxi promised for 20 minutes half hour later no taxi 1 hour later no taxi office said they had no drivers missed funeral

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.

Change extra 2 pounds for asking for an estate car to put a wheelchair in the boot discrimination against the disabled disgusting

I would give them no stars really. First driver went to the wrong address. They eventually found me, but the car was dirty and smelled. I ended up getting our before my destination and walked the rest in the rain. Utter garbage company.

Awfull service

Used this company before over 10 years. And will never ever use them again. Charging me an extra 2.00 cause they sent an estate car. Ridiculous.

Awful experience with this taxi company, we were left stranded for an hour in the middle of the night in Manchester. We kept calling asking for an update but were just told 'oh another 10 minutes' after an hour of this we cancelled the taxi and went with Uber. Wish we had done that in the first place but the hotel we were staying at recommended Lime Line. Will never use them again.

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.

Totally rubbish service booked a taxi for a certain time and never showed up rang them twice to complain and was told just cos u book a taxi for tht time don't mean it will come then and also told i should make sure I book it at reasonable time so I'm not late for work half is plenty of time for me to get there will never be using agin back to cresta for me

Excellent service. Quick, nice and polite drivers, operater friendly.

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

Total muppet driving a silver be Passat, while heading toward me, instead of waiting decided to try and squeeze through with parked cars on both sides. Total muppet

lady i spoke to over the phone was not very helpfull by the tone of her voice she didnt sound like she wanted to help i i book taxi from here allways because of my work i travel all over manchester when i come across this lady she allways sounds like this unhappy with the phone service taxi drivers are allways nice

Taxi normally arrives quickly, prices for the fares are kept the same.Always have come across friendly drivers to!

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?

Taxis are overpriced in my opinion, however at least this one was on time ..

not very good. rung up to order a taxi only to have them just put the phone down on me... I assumed the taxi was coming as had given addresses but none came. rang back and they sent another, however, he was so rude and it was just unnecessary. not very pleased.
