Report
Me and my girlfriend using cabco literally on the daily basis and spending around £1000 a month for taxis. Always happy always safe and almost always very fast. Today my girlfriend had very different experience- very bad experience unfortunately where driver Boris SVK was asking my girlfriend very uncomfortable questions about her private life relationship and so on. I see it as absolutely unacceptable . I will give a cabco another chance but I really hope that this doesn’t happen anymore!!!

Booked a cab through the app previously with no issues. Tried again tonight (£51 booking) they text me asking them to call them. I called they didn’t pick up. I text them back. They text me asking for security. I told them booked with you before (it was a £50 booking) they said we had no history. This is all on text - made no attempt to call me but didn’t pick up when I called them (which I tried to do several times). I sent them screen shot to prove I had travelled with them previously but by that point I had enough and booked another firm. I have no issue with calling

Best company around. With largest fleet of up-date cars, professional drivers, and 30 years of experience, I only use these guys. Always on time and the app is really easy to use.
