Booked a car mid week for an early taxi to catch a train on Friday and I phoned to confirm the day before. On the day they called to cancel at the last minute - what is the point of a Minicab company if they are not reliable!

Report
Driver did not show up at scheduled time without any contact from either driver or operator indicating a delay. After waiting 15 minutes I called the operator to locate my driver and spent 5 minutes on hold and was told the driver would be at least another seven minutes away - I ended up arranging an alternative transfer to the airport and cancelled the Rye Cars transfer given the no show and poor service. One should not need to wait 30 minutes for an airport transfer.

Affordable taxi service and good communication. Drivers was really punctual and especially for an airport transfer is really appreciated. The only downside was no mask was worn by driver.

Positive:Professionalism
I booked two taxis with Rye Cars recently. Both times the phone operators were very polite and professional, and the drivers seemed very knowledgeable of the best routes to take and were very helpful. I found the fares good value for money, too.

Terrible terrible terrible like I was back in the 80s. Hopefully I wont miss my flight. Pre booked cab for airport for 6:10am. Lady called at 6:10 to say driver on way and 5-8mins late. At 6:20 had to call back she gave excuses. At 6:25 cab driver called I thought you cancelled. 6:30, I cancelled and ordered an Uber, which I should have done in the first place.

I had to get from East Dulwich to an appointment in Harley Street a couple of weeks ago. I got a text confirmation and a call from the taxi driver just before pick up time. The driver was absolutely lovely, very chatty and courteous. Drove really well and the car was spotless. He ended up waiting during my appointment and taking me back to East Dulwich. I don't usually leave reviews but he was so nice and it made a huge difference on what was otherwise a stressful day. Would highly recommend.
