Awful - avoid them! We ordered a highly rated expensive cab company (Amitours, 63 GBP) via Minicabster and they sent us a cab from one of their lowest rated, cheapest partners (Devon Cars, 47 GBP) i... See more

Easy Peasy

After having a nightmare using a different cab booking website I came to Minicabster, so much easier to deal with. Booked quickly with fast communication regarding confirmation - no problems when I needed to make amendments to the journey later on. Recommend and will be using again.

great value and speedy

Rugby World Cup final was on so cab was expectedly late, but gave me updates and I'd made extra allowance for road closures & traffic. Cab driver friendly, helpful and took the quickest route to Heathrow. Helped with my luggage. Overall great experience and recommend.

It does exactly what it says. U know ur not being overcharged and was a lot cheaper than the cab company the hotel recommended. Will use again

Worst customer service ever

Our cab didn't arrive. Customer service was absolutely terrible. We needed to transfer good for a big Halloween party. Children were waiting. Like us for 40 minutes on the street with several boxes of food. We said it was important. I'm not going into detail. They hanged the phone twice on us. Worst experience with cab ever.

unreliable

Despite the on-screen confirmation that booking was successful, i learnt once landed at the airport that the booking was not made. I was ensured a cab within 10-15 minutes. it arrived 2.5 hurt later.

Its going down...

Even though I am a regular user, I have to admit that the service and especially online is getting out of hand. I had the worst experience few days ago when it did not let me book online so I spent 15 min on the phone for no reason. Following that the cabby was also late 20 minutes while I had to go catch a plane at the airport. Not cool.

poor organisation, friendly staff

Booked then cancelled first booking
Re-booked when my flight was delayed (as there was no option to change time on original booking)
Both bookings were cancelled.
Arrived at Gatwick South Terminal with no car waiting to collect me.
Minicabster staff confirmed that it was an error on their part and apologised profusely.
Will use again but sort out the app to ensure bookings are honoured in future

It's the worst driver I have never seen.

He can't find my address on GPS, and when I was guiding him, he was complaining I wasted his time. Then go home and never drive to save your time! No manners and not polite! I will use Uber instead!

Was 20 minutes late and was very rude about it and was not being costumer friendly. Very unhappy.

Journey with Random conversation

The driver was early and we got to the airport on time. The driver had random convos which I did not care for plus she couldn't lift my luggage.
