I had to get the taxi firm to contact the app developer, as it wouldn't accept cc details. Sorted now, and works pretty well - better than the uber app actually.

No longer allows you to book with a fixed fare! Some drivers quite often take the longest route possible.

Always used this app but seriously had to write this bad review as this weekend in Newcastle trying to book is a flipping nightmare constantly says not working and closes down on me takes 5-6 attempts to book each frigging time before it doesn't close down

Nexus 4 with Android 4.4.4 using ART runtime. It no longer works despite being removed, cleared and reinstalled. This is going to be a serious problem for you when other phones convert to ART during their next upgrade. UPDATE Still doesn't work, its such a shame

App is easy to use. I booked a taxi no problem, got a fixed price and used my card to pay . . . . . . . . now to see if it turns up. If it does then this app will be worth 5 stars. OOPS. . . . . . Taxi turned up half hour late after turning up at drop off address before picking up. DOH. I'll give it another chance though cos app was really easy to use........NONE OF THEIR DRIVERS WOULD TAKE MY 10 YEAR OLD SON HOME. . . . . . . TIME TO UNINSTALL. . .

As a frequent taxi user, I used to save so much time and planning processes with this app. But now it doesn't run on my new phone so I guess I'll need to look for other options to travel.

I give up with budget taxis, often they can not find my address which even my phone Google maps can locate, and then have occasions when the driver can't find where we going, city hall and Osborne Road examples costing us lots more due to driving around lost, I don't know the road routes so rely on the taxi driver, I tried to complain but just got a text back saying download the app. Again today my girl friend was late for doctors, yet again the driver could not find the our address,

Crashes when use location services and only let's me select one house number from my street (not mine) so I can't get picked up from my house. Haven't even had a chance to use any other features yet.

Check my account, you will see that I had been using your taxis daily for the past year and a half. You have destroyed the app, every time I open it, it does not remember my previous pickup locations, quite often it becomes stuck searching for an address. Why did you do that? The old app worked absolutely fine...

Doesn't work. I learned about this from people handing out leaflets at uni. Why advertise an app that doesn't work? Fix it, because you are genuinely a really good service.

App is terrible and drivers are terrible. Customer service from the office and the driver are shocking. They may be cheaper but at least deans have good service.
