As always, the taxi turned up on time and was clean and tidy. However, I was shocked by the topic of conversation initiated by the driver, which I felt bordered on racism. The conversation was... See more

Excellent service when I needed it. I was stranded at a station that doesn't have cab offices near by. Uber wasn't available. The last bus had already gone, even though google had said it would come. It was late at night. Their prices were the better than other companies.
I was able to pay on the link they sent via card. I was told the cab would come in 30 mins because of the location I was and the time of night. I asked if it was possible to get it sooner, as It was late and cold. The dispatcher explained why it would take long. someone had to come from the town I was going to, so it made sense.
To my great surprise they came even earlier. The kind driver had said he warmed up the car for me as he knew it would be cold. He had also said he came as quick as he would because he saw that he was picking a female that late at night. It just made my day to see the consideration.
I had been so upset with my journey, i hadn't planned to chat with the driver. His friendliness, courtesy and kind consideration meant I cooled down and we had a nice chat as he drove me home. And as a female, I felt safe the whole time. Even in his stories, I could tell he is a genuinely kind, helpful and selfless person.
I am so grateful for this kind of service because after the journey I had, I needed it. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using happicabs when i need to use a cab and I highly recommend them. Thank you once again

Our driver from Braintree train station to home on Friday 27th November was exceptional. He was there when the train pulled into the station and was extremely pleasant and polite. To add to this my husband left his hat in the taxi and the driver went out of his way to come back today and reunite it with him. We cannot recommend it higher. Thank you

A Happycabs driver (Ali) was available straight away even though it was a busy Friday morning & other taxis had nearly an hour's wait. The driver's car was very clean & had a nice refreshing scent (not like some other taxi drivers were you get hit by the smell of stale cigarette smoke as soon as open the door!) The driver was polite & kept me updated of his arrival via mobile/tracking. This was my first time using Happycabs & it won't be the last.

The company is really reliable and give a time to be picked up by and track the driver

Booked through the app, which apparently believes in mystery over clarity — no mention of how many passengers the vehicle can take. We were five; the taxi was four; the maths did not add up. The driver’s attitude didn’t help either. A little transparency (and politeness) would go a long way.
