I booked for my daughter to be picked up at an out of town wedding venue - a 30 minute journey for £46. I contacted the company to move the pick up to 55 minutes earlier (11pm) and this was easy and I was reassured that the driver would phone my daughter. The driver arrived on time and texted my daughter. I contacted the driver to say could he wait so as to ensure she got home safely whilst I tried to phone her above the noise of the music. He replied T&C meant he would wait 5 minutes only. Luckily I got hold of her and she was in the car within the 5 minutes. I would have willing paid an excess had it taken me longer to get hold of her but I didn't like that he was rigid about the wait tim and unconcerned about my daughter's safety. I think the T&C are too rigid in only allowing a 5 minute wait time. Next time I will pick her up myself as this has reinforced my fear taxis are not safe. I can only reply to the company's response by editing here. I acknowledged that the company were flexible. I was not aware of the driver arriving 10 minutes early - the email I received was 5 minutes early (which anyway is irrelevant). I asked if the driver would be willing to go inside he refused and I accepted his refusal although there were not 100s of guests - more like 50 even so I thought his refusal reasonable. I stated a friend needed to be dropped off in my booking and given my daughter arrived back 25 minutes after pick up do not believe they spent 10 minutes driving around (journey time on google maps is 30-40 minutes for trip). It feels like this company exaggerates when they get a bad review which is a shame. The issue is that I asked the driver if he was willing to wait and he said he would only wait the 5 minutes as per the T&C - after which the implication was my daughter would be stranded - I would have paid extra if necessary. I do not understand the reply statement that the driver offered to wait but I refused - it makes no sense. My only issue with the company is that he would only wait 5 mintues as per T&C.

Disgusting customer service, 1 star is even too much. With 12 hours notice I emailed them to let them know I had made a genuine mistake with my booking time and no refund or part refund was offered. I have repeatedly been told I agreed to the terms and conditions when I booked (where 24 hrs notice is required), which I do understand but more importantly for others I wanted to highlight that customers are clearly not cared for. I made a mistake, gave them 12 hours notice at 4.30am and had hoped for some recognition for this. This was unlikely to have affected business as with the notice I gave (and I didn't have to let them know) it would have at least stopped a driver from meeting me at the pick up point, and moreover made them available for other work. For a business with 5 stars I would have expected some sympathy and this company had every chance to retain custom and make a good impression. My complaint is not because I am contractually owed anything but because I believe businesses should be ethical and I feel rotten with the behaviour. I have a business and would not have allowed this when a customer a) let you know and b) with good timr - perhaps it is a sensible control for within a few hours notice, where it might have caused an actual cost. I have now lost £42 and you have not helped me one bit. When times are hard for people this is shameful and gutting, please beware this may happen if you pay upfront with this company. This is no reflection of any drivers.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY IF YOU HAVE CHIlDREN. I was threatened to be dropped on the side of the road with a 1month old baby because she and my toddler we’re crying. I was made to feel scared and was treated so unkindly. The company when told about this driver was unable to offer any apology!! STAY AWAY FAMILIES…: My child was strapped in , which was why she was upset! At no point did she touch or punch your tv or the back of the seat she is a tiny 3 year old girl who was simply tired. We were never once rude to your driver in fact we were super polite and asked him kindly take us back to the hotel (10 minutes away) where I had family to take care of us or to continue on to our home. so please at least get your facts right, this issue was clearly with the crying and I assured your drive that my daughter was tired and that she was crying simply for that reason and my babies equally was crying because she was a baby. Any parent would know house stressful it can be traveling with small children and so kind communicate and understanding goes along way. NOT without ANY WARNING to be told to get out!!! When I wrote to the company again I was looking for some apology or at least some good customer service but was once again met with anger. Not a good company!!! AVOID!!!!!!

The event was my daughter's wedding which was, understandably, very important to me. I initially booked through my default taxi firm, a well known online taxi app. That was a mistake. 2 hours to go and still no confirmed driver. I cancelled the booking and used Google to find a well reviewed taxi firm. Bristol Taxi Online came top of the list. The online booking form was fairly simple to navigate, the cost was similar to Uber so I booked and hoped for the best. Five minutes before the booked time a beautiful white Mercedes pulled up outside. The driver was smart and courteous. The drive took about 25 minutes and was uneventful. We arrived at the venue in plenty of time after a very pleasant journey in that lovely car. When it was time to leave a different, but still beautiful, Mercedes pulled up exactly on time. The driver was again smart and courteous. Another uneventful drive got us home in plenty of time. I will use Bristol Taxi Online again.

Overall the service is perfect. Booking is straightforward. Drivers are always on time with good communication. I’ve used this company four times to Heathrow and back and it was perfect every time. The only drawback I could mention is the price went up 27.5% or £39 in 6 months from Feb 22 to Aug 22 (fuel costs I assume). One suggestion I could make for UX would be to send a quick reminder email or text 24 hours before for any booking made more than two days before. The first time I booked there was no further communication after the initial confirmation email so I was mildly concerned, but the driver sent a text 15 minutes before pickup and showed up on time so no harm. A reminder email/text for advance bookings might be reassuring, though. All in all a great service and my new go-to for airport transfers.

  • Wai Wolfe

Easy to book online and invoices emailed with the required information, which seems to be a hard ask with all other services I looked at. Great communication from start to finish. Love the email alerts, on the way and the driver’s name and when arrived, as the booking was for a vulnerable person with a visual impairment. A pick up was required from inside the premises, the driver arrived nice and early and I’m told he was very pleasant. Thank you! UPDATE I booked a total of 4 taxis for a course the person was on. I made a few admin changes, which were executed efficiently and politely. No reminders at all. Each booking my instructions were followed to the letter, great communication and lovely drivers. Even escorted to the front door. I will definitely book again. Superb 5 star experience.

  • Karen J

We booked the Taxi service to pick us up from Birmingham airport . We originally should have come to Bristol but flight cancelled , therefore we wanted to get back home as soon as possible because of having to fly to Birmingham . Booking was easy on line, driver rang after flight landed to see how we were progressing. Good communication and waiting for us after arriving. Good journey with professional driver and very good drive back home to our address. Thank you would highly recommend

  • Jessica Wood

Would definitely recommend this company for airport transfers - our trip to Bristol Airport was not an easy one, due to an accident and sheer volume of traffic on Bristol roads. Although our taxi was late (not their fault) the driver did his absolute best to get us to the Airport as quickly as possible. Our flight back was delayed, glad we paid a bit extra for the meet & greet; very friendly drivers both there and back and the cars were lovely and immaculately clean.

  • Gillian Forrester

I booked a car online last night to take from from Bristol to Herefordshire this morning. The online booking system is very easy to use. My driver, Usman, arrived half an hour early and texted me to say that he was there. He is an excellent driver, and was very courteous and helpful, and his Mercedes town car was immaculate. A very comfortable and easy drive to my destination. I would certainly use Bristol Taxi Online again.

  • Graham O'Dwyer

A great experience. The taxi picked my daughter, son in law and grandchildren up from Heathrow on time and got them all to Bristol for a family wedding. The whole experience was friction free from collection to arrival in Bristol. Our whole family would like to thank the wonderful people at Bristol Taxi Online for the superb service they provided. We will be using their service again.

  • Natalie Williams

I booked a last minute pick up from Bristol to Bath and hour before my husband's flight landed as our previous taxi booking got cancelled (due to Covid). Bristol Taxi Online confirmed the job quickly and at a fair price. Their online platform is really easy to use and the taxi service very reliable. Will definitely use again!

  • Vanessa Dennett

Valdis was not only able to help me out of a tricky situation by picking up my nieces while I was in A&E with my daughter, but politely messaged all information and let me know when they had met. The girls told me he was super friendly and offered lots of information about Bristol on their journey. Thank you.

  • Jenny Moran

I am extremely impressed with this service. I booked a taxi from Bristol to Heathrow in the evening for a pick up the next morning. The online platform is efficient and easy to use. I was so impressed! I will definitely use again. Easy, seamless process and a great car. Thank you! I am glad I have found you.

First class vehicles, really comfy for the longer journey. Friendly drivers and willing to help. Cars arrive on time and move safely to you destination giving you enjoyable experience. There is full time access to H.O. WITH instant access to your booked driver to be aware of traffic delays

  • Laura Simons

The woman at the end of the phone must work all hours because she picks up right away, which gave me great peace of mind ahead of my travels. The taxi driver arrived 10 minutes early , even at 4am, which allowed us to get to my destination in good time! Will definitely be using them again.
