This company will lie to you on the off chance they might have someone available to pick you up. We booked a taxi 40 minutes in advance, allowing an hour to get to the station. It hadn't arrived 50 mi... See more

The past two times I used Aberdeen Taxis, it was a pickup at my house and the driver was 30 minutes late. I called dispatch several times as I feared I’d miss my train, and they assured me the driver... See more

Disgrace

Disgrace, booked a taxi 2 days before I needed it to take me to he airport for 8.30am, never arrived, when I phoned at 8.45am to enquire where it was I was told it was just dropping off someone and would be there promptly.
At 8.55am I had to use my own car and pay for a week's parking at the airport - when the driver phoned to say he was there at 9.05am he told me he only got the pickup 10 minutes before.
Wouldn't advise anyone to use them especially for an airport run.

Unreliable legacy service.

Called the Aberdeen Taxis freephone line in my hotel to book a cab for 19:15 (in half an hours time). No price given and only basic information taken. Details not repeated back - should have been a warning. By 19:25 cab hadn't arrived so called and chased. They hadn't taken my number so asked for it so the driver could call me to let me know where they were. By 19:30 still not arrived so called restaurant to say that I would be late.
Next a text message to say cab had been dispatched but tracking link that the text contained didn't work and more time before driver finally arrived.
Terrible service and locals confirm that they are bad. When you're used to Uber this is primitive.

The other main cab company in Aberdeen (Rainbow) were much better on the return trip.

LEFT STRANDED IN THE SHIRE

We had our wedding at Banchory Lodge on Saturday. One of our friends who has a mobility scooter was staying with us and had a train booked at 1145 on Sunday morning. On Saturday, she booked a taxi to collect her at 1045 the next morning. She received a confirmation from Aberdeen taxis and assumed all was arranged. At 1045 on the Sunday our friend was waiting outside for her car. Aberdeen taxis then phoned to say they were still in Aberdeen and couldn't come.

We tried to arrange an alternative but, of course, by then it was too short notice. A family member drove her to the station but she missed her train due to the delay. There were no other trains that day due to strikes so our friend had to book into a hotel for the night. She obviously has mobility challenges so this was all quite difficult. Really bad form from Aberdeen taxis and won't be using them again.
