Taxis in West Mersea, Colchester, Essex

Top company, have used a couple of times and never had a issue and always on time which makes a change from other companies used!

What an awful experience. Smoky, uncomfortable taxis but the worst points were 1. They didn't turn up when booked in advance- we called and they came late but we were then late for our appointment 2. They charged us nearly double the price quoted on the phone and were completely lacking in concern when we dared to argue about the price. Never again - there are many other good taxi companies around the area

First time trying to use this company and I won't bother again. I called about 1.5 hours before I needed a pick up from our local station and they asked me to pay in advance which I was happy to do but when we got off the train at our local station the taxi wasn't there. I called and was informed that they had just finished a job but were still 15-20 mins away. The walk home takes about the same time so my husband and i just walked home in the pitch black. Rather infuriatingly, I was told I couldn't have a refund straight away and that I would need to call on the next working day to arrange this. Not happy as I paid in advance in good faith so I feel like I have been ripped off.

They are brilliant, timing, car and service quality are 5 star. Our driver Tony, was very polite and he has comfortable driving skill. Thanks for tonight.

No cab company is perfect, but they are I suppose better than walking. Especially when its raining. Or snowing. Or in a blizzard. Or something like that. Actually, or even when its too hot. They have air-con in most of their motors. Yeah OK, that ain't much use in a blizzard. But it is when its hot. Like it was a couple of weeks back. All sorts of drivers though. Some are stupid, some are OK. I spose much like any other cab company. But, unlike the previous review, I would use them again, but I wont recommend them to anyone, as if I do, they might get too busy and I might not get a cab myself.

I booked a taxi in the morning (10am) for a taxi at 1.35pm. At 1.40 i called to ask where my taxi was; and there was no taxi even dispatched for me. When I got in, the driver asked why I booked my taxi so late!! RUDE service, terrible timings; how can I book a taxi and not have one sent out to me on time if Ive booked it so far in advance.

Hopeless ! Avoid at all costs . They take your booking knowing they havent got a cab spare for your time slot . Its happened to me 3 times in 2 weeks now leaving me late for work . No apology . Nothing . Go elsewhere .

Great cab office, always friendly and helpful. Don't charge any extra for late night trips. Always use these and highly recommend them to all.

Awful service, 60 minutes late and no apology.

Arrived 50 minutes late, no call to say they were running late. No apology. Defiantly one to avoid!

Never had a bad service in the 4 years I have been using .... sons school taxi, daughter home from hospital and generally by the rest of us. I definitely recommend this lovely company x

A fantastic company! They really helped me out at short notice & the staff were so lovely! :)

Will use it again. Thanks

Very friendly drivers and clean cars

Always on time do recommend .

Pleasent journey to airport thanks

Best taxi drivers

Had a taxi booked with all the 8s in April to take and collect us from Stansted in August. A few week before we were due to be picked up we had an email saying the company has been taken over . We were concerned as we have never had a taxi to an airport, They were brilliant on time for pick up . We were concerned as flight delayed 2 hours from Turkey on arrival home and worried they wouldnt be there. We literally got a text and within 2 minutes of waiting in section B Dave was there, Thanks and would deffo recommend them

Fast taxi service! When ever I call up and book a taxi, the taxi turns up in just 3 minutes on my door! Quick service!

We had a pleasant journey from Bradwell Marina to Sandwich JL Taxi was clean, accommodating and helpful and a nice guy to chat to Good calm standard of driving. Reasonable rates. Thanks for your service

First time using this company, he works alone and has really good timings, would recommend, really nice guy as well

About time you updated your address!

Please ensure that people get in their destination, dont drive off and leave someone with their key while the taxi drives off

Driver helped me put a large tele in the back, as well as a wheelchair in the boot, then helped me out at the other end. Didn't even need to ask, he just got out and helped me out. A lot of other taxis refuse to help. Nice to have a driver with some common decency for a change.

Terrible service
