Taxis in Oldham, Lancashire

Great honest firm great service

The Landlady of my local pub booked me a taxi home as I was a bit worse for wear following a funeral. I was unable to pay the fair of £2 so this firm send a very rude message to the Landlady , said I had done a runner( I am a 55 year old disabled lady) and the police were being called. I was going to apologise but for £2 and a drunken mistake I think they could have just put a note through my door where he dropped me off

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

Terrible, person who picks up the phone is abrupt and completely disregards what you told him then the driver takes you to another planet.

Booked weeks in advance on the way to the venue was fine on return was told to ring to arrange a time the driver did not answer. Rang the company at 11:20 for 00:00 return who said they would send someone. Rang the company at 00:10 to be told they could not contact driver so there was nothing they could do. Claimed because I had only booked at 11:20 it was not there problem although no one had informed us the minibus was not coming it was now 00:20. Ignoring the fact we had booked return weeks in advance. Very unreliable had to book taxis from different company to get 14 people home.

Terrible service terrible company

Very helpful staff lost my purse with all my personal belongings and the staff were really helpful and got it back for me well done chadderton cars 10/10 thanks so much

Service with No Patience!! And rude receptionist who takes calls

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

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?

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 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!

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.

Left phone in Cab three days before Christmas. The Firm were useless and Claimed they couldnt track my driver despite me having ring camera footage of exact drop off time and a transaction to prove payment. I lost all my photos of my daughter as a baby and the phone has clearly been stolen. Do not use!

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

APPEAL to everyone !!! Watch out for A2B TAXI drivers !!! Taxi drivers cheat and extort money from the passener, they make special mistakes or eat badly or change the route to a long route and you can expect to pay 3 timesas much,I definitely do not recommend this company !

Unreliable and poor customer service even tho the driver was good the operator was ru bish at his job as he got me late even tho I ordered taxi 25 min prior to my shift it tuck them 30mins to get to me. Disgusting operator lies about booking and eta.

cheap taxis reliable service always on time, safe drivers love a2b best in oldham for taxis

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

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

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

Use to be on point had no problems all of the sudden all these new drivers accept and cancel constantly so you end up waiting for taxi god knows how long!

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.

Just got a phone call from this number claiming to be from a housing association, sounded very fishy the questions she was asking, beware !!!!!

Awful company. Lazy drivers, arrogant operators. AVOID !!!!

Pre Booked this company for 7th February turned up extremely late after several phone calls and numerous lies they then had the audacity to rip me off for a fare that is never normally more than £4.00 they charged me £12.20 then when I phoned to speak to the Manager (Keith) I was told he was out of office but they would get him to call me that evening or first thing the next morning (8th February 2022) it's now (16th February 2022) and I still await his call yet another lie!! If I could give this company zero stars I would so please please please avoid them at all cost they are lying, unreliable thieves

The most disorganised taxi company in Manchester. Booked a taxi and told it would arrive in 20 minutes. 30 minutes later told it was 4 minutes away. 40 minutes later again told it was 4 minutes away. The receptionist said he was "stationary at Smithfield Market and didnt know why". 3rd phone call another rude receptionist said there was nothing she could do. always seems to be the same with this company. Don't know why they can't be honest and say it will be 40 mins. Only given 1 star as wont let post with 0 star. Cancelled Taxi and booked with Tameside Cabs who arrived promptly as promised.

The most unreliable, clueless, bad mannered collection of incompetents Ive ever had the misery of dealing with! Just a lift at a certain time pre/ booked for weeks and they cant even keep to that!!! Leave them alone and let them go bust!!!!!!! Do NOT rely on this shower!!!

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.
