Do not use.
About 5 days before we travelled we booked a taxi to Exeter. Price quoted, agreed and paid for.
About 10 hours before it was due a flood of emails and WhatsApp messages came in demanding an extra 5.50 was paid to the driver. As I'd paid I replied no. Then the price went up again, 15 pounds etc demanded with links to pay, again I said no. Eventually they effectively said pay it or we will cancel. I replied I've already paid. Then they agreed to do it for the original price. Then sent another demand that 10 pounds was paid to the driver. I replied no,you agreed original price. Then they offered to cancel and refund.
Refusing to let them bully me into paying more,I agreed to a cancellation and a refund. Still waiting for that of course.
Stuck then for a taxi at 4am taxi from rural Devon to a train station to catch a train for a flight.
An 80 Yr old man had to get up at 4am to give a lift.
Then the taxi turned up,also demanding money insisting he'd been booked

An expensive, stressful mistake using these. I'm not even sure if they are legit. I booked with mytaxe, got emails from GBAirport something,messages from Henry's taxi company and then someone called James fro
yet anothef company turned up.
I think the scam is, let you book at one price, then contact at the last minute saying its more and get increasingly pushy to pay or lose the booking and, as many will be stuck otherwise, hope you pay it. Then if they refuse, offer to camel then still send a taxi and hope people pay the new demand then
