Dear Sleptsova,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I’m so pleased to hear that your first experience with Gett was a positive one.

I can certainly appreciate that the fare was different from what you experienced with a private hire service. Black Cab fares are set by a meter regulated by the local authority, which accounts for both the distance travelled and the time taken.

This price reflects the exceptional expertise of Black Taxi drivers. Having mastered "The Knowledge," they navigate London with incredible precision, often finding the best routes without ever needing a satnav. Additionally, every Black Cab is fully wheelchair accessible and held to the highest safety and vetting standards in the city.

We hope the reliability and skill of our professional drivers make us your first choice for future trips across town!

Our professional Black Taxi drivers are dedicated to providing a secure and comfortable environment for every passenger, and I'm glad their expertise helps you feel at ease. We’re delighted to have you as a loyal user.

Drivers start meters before they arrive

Drivers consistently start their meters before they arrive at the destination. And then get angry when you call them out on it.
I would assume it’s very easy to fix / prevent this in the app.

EDIT: My intention is not to get that individual driver into trouble. I flagged to the driver that he had started the meter before he arrived when I got into the taxi and he reset it. The issue is with the App which allows drivers to do this - in happens in about 1 in 4 drives as drivers are all aware that they can do it - this needs to be fixed as it is an ongoing issue and flaw in the App

Dear L Cam,
Thank you for your feedback. I apologise if this has been happening.

I would like to look into this ride further, as this is not what we expect from drivers. If possible, I would be grateful if you could complete the request for further information I submitted through Trustpilot. As your review is anonymous, I am unable to locate the ride. I will review the driver's GPS details and pass them on to our Driver Team for investigation.

Kind Regards

In no particular order

In no particular order, the response time, especially at around 0800 hours, although this more the exception rather than the rule. Local drivers not that familiar with the most appropriate routes into town, more noticeable on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Normally, manners and courtesy of the drivers are well appreciated.

Dear Me S.Poole-Robb,

Thank you for your detailed feedback.

I’m very glad to hear that you consistently appreciate the manners and courtesy of our drivers; providing a professional and respectful service is a core part of the Black Cab tradition.

I am sorry to hear that the response time around 08:00 hasn't always met your expectations, even if noted as an exception, and that you've noticed some unfamiliarity with routes during the mid-week rush. Tuesday through Thursday are often the busiest days in the city, but I will pass along your comments to ensure we maintain the high standards you expect from us.

We look forward to welcoming you back on board soon.

Reliable, good service

Good, trustworthy. I like that these are normal black cab drivers that don’t use their phones to navigate. I don’t think drivers should be glancing over at a map - the focus should be on the road! I like that they use electric vehicles!

It’s always been quick for me to get a driver - much more reliable than competitors.

Often slow to arrive or cancel order

Good app but drivers slow to arrive most of the time. Their cancellations make them frustrating to use but sticking with them for now as the London cabbies know London well and don’t need to use satnav apps.

Dear Mrs Tehranchian,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate your loyalty and your decision to stick with us for your London travels.

I am sorry to hear that arrival times have been frustrating lately. We know how important a prompt pick-up is when you're navigating a busy schedule. It is great to know, however, that our drivers' expert knowledge is what keeps you choosing Gett.

That deep, internalised understanding of London’s streets—without the need for satnav—is exactly what makes our drivers the best in the business. Combined with their ability to use bus lanes, it really is the most efficient way to get through the city's traffic.

If you ever experience a specific issue with a cancellation, please remember our UK-based Customer Experience team is available 24/7 through the app chat to look into it for you.

We look forward to seeing you on board again soon!

Best regards,
John Mc

Dear Food Fillas,

Realising you’ve left something behind is all of our worst nightmares, especially after getting all the way home to Scotland. (as a fellow Scotsman, I know the feeling) It’s heartening to know that our team could help put your mind at ease and that Peter is personally ensuring your belongings are returned to you.

Our UK-based support team is available 24/7 to help with exactly these kinds of situations, and I’m so glad they were able to connect you with Peter so quickly. Stories like this are what the Black Cab trade is all about—professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for our passengers.

I’ll be sure to pass your thanks on to Peter, he’ll be chuffed to hear his efforts made such a huge difference to your trip!

Warmest regards,

Tips on admin fees on top of fare

Price showed £26; booked taxi; fee came through for £34. Took taxi ride and spoke to driver. Final price on meter £26.03. Invoice arrives with £1.99 admin fee plus outrageously the 5% tip for the driver added to the admin fee. Have been advised to use Jump instead which is great with none of these hidden costs

Dear Tony,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I am sorry if there was any confusion regarding the charges for your recent journey, and I would like to clarify the billing for the ride in question.

According to our records, the actual metered fare for the journey was £27.40. With the 5% tip of £1.37, the subtotal came to £28.77. After adding the £1.99 booking fee, the final total charged to your payment method was £30.76. I want to reassure you that no tip is ever charged on the booking fee itself.

Regarding the £34.00 you mentioned, I can confirm that no charge for that amount has been made to your payment method. As mentioned, the total for the ride was £30.76.

Regarding the meter fare of £26.03 you mention, it is worth noting that Black Taxi meters in London (regulated by TFL) begin at £4.20 and increase in multiples of £0.20, so a final reading of £26.03 would not be possible on a standard meter. You can view your full itemised receipt within the app at any time for your records.

We aim for complete transparency, which is why we show a fare estimate, in this case, £26–£31, prior to booking. This gives our users the information they need to decide whether to proceed or consider alternatives before pressing "Order Now."

I hope this helps clarify the charges for your trip. I do thank you for raising this feedback. I will be sure to pass it on to our product team, which is always looking for ways to improve visibility and transparency within our app.
