Taxi from Nottingham to Heathrow

We had a return Taxi from Nottingham to Heathrow airport.
Our Driver for both ways was Clifford.
Clifford made our journey very easy and enjoyable, He was on time, gave good instructions and me and my daughter felt very safe and comfortable during our journey.
I would not hesitate to use this company again, and the same Driver.
Thank you Clifford you deserve the highest stars.

Delayed flight time

After a horrendous flight home to Heathrow we were 12 hours later than we should have been. After a phone call to Ideal to let them know the pick up was changed.
Massive thanks to Ideal and our driver Danny for getting us back home after 26 hours of travelling. Have always used this taxi firm for airport runs and every time the service has been the best. Thank you again

One of the best taxi companies around

One of the best taxi companies around!

The taxi drivers are honest and friendly
They contacting me when a family member had lost their phone in the taxi and send a lovely driver to drop it off to me as I was based in the area. They were conscious that my family member had been drinking so made me aware of this so I could go and check on them. Thankyou so much to both the taxi drivers and the chap who called me.

No reply to 1 email\ No confirmation of test drive booked

On 4th Aug I asked about a px deal( No reply)
Around a week later asked for a test drive of the same car Ford Mondeo via the online system ( No reply)
Looked again to see car reserved I now see the car re-advertised . If that is ideal cars customer service before purchase I dread to think what it will be like after purchase.

Hi L.King, this review as been left on the wrong business page, we are Ideal Cars, a private hire and taxi company. I believe from the context of your review you have dealt with "Ideal Car" as Ideal cars do not sell any vehicles.
