I have used Abba taxis for the past year and they have always been polite on the phone and reliable. Obviously at busier times one expects delays. I don't believe some of the reviews on here that so... See more

Generally, they're actually fantastic, but there's one driver I've had a few times who doesn't disclose until the end of the journey that he'll only accept cash. He will then force you to go to a cash... See more

Driver derserved ZERO stars

I would actually give yesterday's driver ZERO stars if I could. Taxi was booked and when went outside it was parked way up the road and quite a way from the booked address. I went and spoke to the driver who then proceeded to say 'You should answer your phone', when in fact there were no calls from him. He then said 'I can't get out and look at every house number', when I know his sat nav takes him to the house even if he has to park next door. He then said I will have to rebook, and thinking he meant he was going to come and do the pick up, I started walking back to my house. He then just turned round and drove straight past and drove off. We then had to ring and book another one, and the operator was brilliant and sent one immediately and the next driver was more than helpful and helped her with all her bags and her 3 year old.The taxi was for my daughter who was on a curfew and was very anxious and stressed. This first driver was very rude, unhelpful and lied about ringing to say he was there. Obviously parked way up the road was to him 'there'!

Worst taxi company in Warrington

Appalling customer service, do not use!! When the taxi was late, we were told on each call 5 mins, 10 mins, he's round the corner making a drop off etc etc. They turned up 1hr 15mins late. Whilst waiting and listening to excuses I made another hassle free booking with Passenger cars which arrived in 10mins. Both cars turned up at the same time, guess which I used........

Women on the phone was very rude when I enquired about my missing taxi, she then proceeded to call me “dim” when I was explaining that I had looked for my taxi, and after I had said that she didn’t have to be so rude to me. She then hung up on me.

Taxi driver on the other hand was absolutely amazing couldn’t fault him, was lovely and spoke to me with the respect that I deserve as a customer.

I'm very disappointed with taxi 212

I'm very disappointed with taxi 212, I do not condone anyone forcing there religious beliefs on anyone, if the conversation between myself and my wife was afensive to him that's his problem, at no point did we try to involve him in the conversation, and at no point did I ask for his religious beliefs, if he didn't like the conversation between myself and my wife he as a grown ass man has the option to not listen to our conversation and butt in why we are talking, we asked for a taxi not a religious intervention, I find the fact he believes in a imagery person afensive , and to try and force his religion on us is a joke , how would this driver react to passengers that spoke a different language, would he find it afensive that he didn't understand what they was saying and ask them to stop talking ??

Avoid very poor deserve No Stars

First experience, pre booked some weeks for Airport run. Rang on the morning of the pick up day confirmed booking and yes they never turned up. Rang again reply What booking ffs. Someone eventually turned up. Second experience rang about an hour before scheduled pick up. It's Sunday we rang Saturday. Phone system is a joke and you'll get the classic It's 10 minutes away. Avoid this company totally unreliable

I have used ABBA cars daily for 6 weeks…

I have used ABBA cars daily for 6 weeks to get my 16 year old daughter to work each day, I book the car the night before then call in the mornings to confirm and get a fixed price, the days u don't get a fixed price, my daughter gets charged £2 more despite using them daily, they have made my daughter late 3 times in the last month losing her £30. The final straw was yesterday when I called because they were 30 mins late again, they accepted no responsibility, the driver was rude to my daughter telling her that he would charge extra to go on the motorway despite her having a fixed price and going this way on a daily basis, the control room are generally OK but yesterday I was onto a highly defensive female telling me that my daughter had been in the car for 7 minutes even though she wasn't and then hung up on me.
When I pay for a service I expect a good service and do not like being lied to and people shifting the blame, own up and take responsibility.
I won't be using them again and am so disappointed with them.

Unreliable and dishonest would sum up…

Unreliable and dishonest would sum up my experience this morning. Booked 10 hours in advance, repeatedly told car was on its way, 10mins after booking due they cancelled it on the system. Rang them to find out what was going on to be told struggling to get a car to my area. Eventually told could get one 30 mins after it was booked for. It was too late so had to get someone to drive me to the station. If they had told me when I booked or when I rang 5 minutes before the booked time they couldn’t meet the booking would have made alternative arrangements. This is not the first time and I won’t be using them again

Communication

The women operating the telephone was so rude! I was at fault for leaving the item in the boot in the first place but because she couldn't give me any more information and I stated that she could have contacted the wrong taxi or that that said taxi could have kept the item, she had a disgusting attitude and put me on hold and wouldn't return my phone call. All she needed to say was I'm unable to help any further and I would have understood. There is absolutely no need to be rude and ignorant. Learn some decent communication skills before taking a job as a telephone operator and learn some manners! I couldn't have been more polite especially since it wasnt her fault. I won't be using your service again.

Absolutely descraced today

Absolutely descraced today. I've been using them for more than five years and has met lovely drivers, honest to be told. But today the driver that picked us up was very rude, I'll mannered and out of this world. Horrible customer service experience I've ever received, I'm not sure if the you report this kind of behaviour the office does take steps . I they do I will report this matter 😡😡😡

Absolutely disgusted

Absolutely disgusted by the (lack of) service.
Ordered a taxi 5 hours in advance for it not to come on time. After ringing them 3 times they hung up on me and cancelled my taxi.
We therefore had to drive to our destination, leaving half an hour after our taxi was due to come.
We recommend ABBA taxis to all the guests at work. We will no longer be doing so.

Scam

Only ever used them twice. The first time they sent 3 cars for me and flood my mates estate with cars and then charged me twice by claiming that I had to pay cash, even though I had already payed by card. The second time, the man wanted me to pay up front even though I had payed by card so I brought up the fact that I’d been scammed by the company before and that I wasn’t going to let it happen again so he rang the main office, they clarified that I had payed by card, the man knew he was wrong so used the excuse that I was being “rude and threatening” to cancel the trip and leave me stranded. Will NEVER be using again - id rather walk home with no shoes on! Would recommend you to never use this company - unless you want to pay double...

My wife booked one there taxis to pick her up from work a 6.30 PM today. It didn't turn up until an hour later and the driver said he had only been given the job 5 minutes before. This is unacceptable as they are supposed to be the biggest taxi firm in warrington and reliable. Think there boast at being reliable is a joke.

The worst and rudest operator

The worst and rudest operator I’ve ever spoken to, no respect and obviously a sad little man. Antony was his name and I’d love to meet him face to face :D

Unreliable.

Booked in advance to go to station to catch a train. Didn’t turn up and still wasn’t there after 15 minutes. We were very lucky that our neighbour was available.
