Got a taxi from Wellman cars from chalterhault park to my house from reg number FD58DAW. My son is…read more3 year old and had to climb to his seat because he's small. We had just left a park and my son left a couple of muddy footprints on his seat due to the climbing. It will come off with a wet cloth!His car was already filthy before this.This taxi driver spent the whole journey making us feel uncomfortable. Snide remarks and shouted a couple of times as well because of this couple of footprints on his seat. I kept my mouth shut thinking if I said anything right now he would turf us out and leave us abandoned. After getting told that all their taxi drivers have card machines he told me I couldn't use card and forced me to go to a bank machine. I nip out to grab money from the machine and he's in the back of the car doing something. He was holding my son down and grabbing him forcefully. He dropped us off and shouted at me as well then has complained that I stood up for myself eventually after having to deal with any of this. Wellman trying to cover up instead of deal with it. Haven't even heard back from them or had as little as an apology.
Impressive service from one of the best private car companies in the area. Cars usually turn up…read morewithin minutes though it is a busy company, and from time to time the receptionist will say how long it will be before one is available. In my experience the taxi will appear before the stated time. All drivers are pleasant and hospitable and cars are kept clean and tidy. Identification badges are always clearly on display for the drivers. Driving standard is also high and I have been well able to relax on any trip. I usually find prices to be cheaper than many other companies and great value for money.

All aspects about it are very positive, with friendly service and quick response times with regards to coming picking you up. Also all the cars used are of very good standard with modern car models. They also have a call ringing service which is ideal.

The first driver refused the fare because his shift was ending--an error by dispatch that the office then blamed on my mother, even insulting her by claiming she "didn't know where she was going." The second driver was worse. He interrogated her on previous fares, accused her of lying about even calling from the hospital, and threatened to drive her back to the hospital mid-journey unless she paid upfront. He even stopped at a shop to demand she withdraw more cash. To finish, he took an obscure, unnerving back-road route that left her frightened. When I complained, the manager was defensive and terminated the call after I challenged her standards. This is a disgusting way to treat a vulnerable patient. They provide a woeful service with zero compassion or accountability.

The worst taxi company I have ever used have been using this taxi company now for around six years…read moreand I have come up with numerous issues with regards to this service. The booking staff on the other end of the telephone, are very rude each time I call and will often put the phone down and end the call abruptly when you are requesting a service. Even when I am at Asda with a trolley full of shopping. Taxis are always late. They are very unreasonable with regards to being on time and when it comes to collecting my daughter to take her to school to, and from school, they have caused a lot of nonsense. I requested to pay via card prior to the journey, and for some reason some of the taxi drivers are too lazy to get out of the car to come and collect payment. Also, one of the taxi drivers were 30 minutes late collecting my daughter from school last Friday. I waited by my front door for the driver to come and collect a payment, and he just drove off and when I went to complain about this, I was told by the guy on the other end of the phone that it's not their problem and they don't really care about the school pickups in the area because that's not a priority. I offered to send over a payment via transfer but the driver very kindly said there was no need. As for the 'customer service' booking staff... I will never ever use this taxi service again, because the manager abruptly contacted me this afternoon and accused me of being rude to her colleague whom was indeed very rude and insulting to me and told me that they were no longer going to collect my daughter to and from school and told me it was my problem. You are an awful company, and you have absolutely the worst Customer Service service skills if any at all. You have no empathy for people with mental health issues, and you don't care about the children in the area. You only care about how much money you make from each fare. You are a disgrace of a company, and I will make this well-known to as many locals as possible. I am absolutely disgusted and really upset by your service. I am a single parent I don't have any family to support me and I Can't drive, so I use public transport on a daily basis to go anywhere. The people that work for you are completely vile and evil and should have the sack for the way that they have spoken to me. I have a sharp tongue, and they deserved every bit of it in response to how they spoke to me. It's no wonder Motherwell has so many issues with a taxi firm like yours.
I was surprised this wasn't on the Yelp list already!…read more It's a small station, mere minutes from the bigger Hamilton Central, but it's fairly useful for a couple of things. If you're going to the football, this is the closest stop for Hamilton Academicals FC; the track runs right alongside the ground, and you can see the game if it's on as the train goes by. There's also a little retail park here, well serviced with Sainsburys being the biggest shop. There's also a useful Sports Direct, a Watt Brothers (YAY!) and a McDonalds. Yes, you can get your Maccie D's fix here! There's also a cracking wee football pub across the road, and a taxi rank. A handy wee station to remember.

So Uber has arrived in Glasgow. I've used this service in many other cities but really wasn't sure…read moreabout using it in Glasgow as I've never really had an issue getting taxis. We'd finished a boozy brunch yesterday and I decided to book an Uber home. Firstly, you need to watch for surge pricing. This pops up as a notification when you try to search for a taxi but I think they could have another reminder in the process, just so you really know what you'll be paying. It came up with 1.5x surge (meaning you pay 1.5x the normal rate because there's a high demand). I just cancelled and waited a few minutes before checking again, and the surge period had finished. I like the app and find it really easy to use - no worrying about where your taxi is because you can see it on the map, no worrying about paying by card or having cash as it's all done in the app so you just hop out at the end. Our taxi arrived within a few minutes and we were on our way. A trip into the city centre for us with our usual taxi company is £12.50, this ride was just £14, so the prices aren't really too different (our taxi company had a 15 minute + wait). I'm not going to say that I'd use Uber all the time in Glasgow but they're definitely handy to have. Also, in my experience (probably 30+ rides with Uber in various cities) the drivers tend to keep the cars in excellent condition.

Über has only recently arrived to Belfast so any time I've checked there is never any cars available. Our car arrived within minutes - I think this is my favourite thing about Uber - you can tell exactly how much time you have before your car is going to arrive. So you can finish off your drinks and walk outside exactly as your taxi arrives. Our driver was pleasant and chatty. He mentioned that he can review passengers and that passengers can also rate him. (Little did he know that we were Yelp Elites and he was getting reviewed anyway). The fair from the bus station to the west end area of Glasgow cost less that £5 and the receipt was emailed to me within minutes of getting out of the car. It just comes straight out of your bank so there's no worrying about stopping for cash. All in all a great experience with Uber and I'll definitely use them again!

Ian and I decided to do a last minute holiday and Ian had been searching the net on the Thomas Cook…read morewebsite and he suggested Lanzarote again, which I happily agree with. We wanted to see if it would be cheaper or not to book online or through the travel agent. We'd already booked through the agent two years previously and were absolutely delighted with our holiday hence us going back. Ian had noted all costs to compare with what the agent would calculate. It pretty much matched and they gave us a small discount as we choose to come in. Bonus! The holiday did unfortunately cost us a bit more than we hoped and this mostly due to flying from Manchester as there was no flights from Glasgow, which we already knew from checking the website. The staff are always friendly with great banter. There's just something about booking a holiday with someone who knows what they're doing. Yes it maybe works out cheaper sometimes doing it yourself online but when you're forking out a bit of money I like to make sure I'm doing it right. You also get a small discount on exchanging your money too. It feels you can get it all sorted all under one roof and feel it's all in hand so you can concentrate on the big pack. It was again a fantastic holiday and would use Thomas Cook again.

We're planning a bit…read moreof a getaway for his birthday and I wanted to get some ideas of costs and such for the time we want to be away. Not having ever used this sort of service before, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was kinda hoping to get a little bit more help than I actually did. When I walked in, there was a massive queue for travel money and a handful of service associates either helping people, answering phone calls, or waiting for people to come in with questions, like moi. I was flagged down and asked to come over to discuss travel plans with her. Having already researched a ton of stuff at home with the boyfriend, I thought Thomas Cook had some special portal where they got all their special travel deals from. My boyfriend and his mates went away earlier this year and were able to get some crackin' deals from Thomas Cook. I wouldn't have such luck. The service associate proceeded to open up google and basically do the same search for flights that I did. After realising she wasn't going to be able to get me a good deal because apparently there are no direct flights where I want to go, she proceeded in trying to get me to change my destination all together and then suggested a coach trip which would be two times the length of the current trip we want to take. Even though I specifically told her I was just shopping around for deals and would be taking any information gathered home to chat it over with the boyfriend, she was really interested in me booking something right then and there. Nah. Anyway, I told her thanks anyway, but none of the info she gave me was anything more than what I was finding in the comfort of my own home on my own PC. She was polite enough and said to go home, speak to the boyfriend and come back and see her when we decided what to do. OK, sure.

Even when you check in at the counter. The line isn't that long and there's always a good amount of someone working the counter. International airport and it's easier to maneuver, that's a win in my book. Also there's plenty of weigh stations that you can use for a pound to see if your luggage weight limits is correct before checking it in and having to readjusts. Security is upstairs. Scan your boarding pass to enter through before security. It's alway nice to have something that speedy and easy. The waiting area has a good amount of eating places. There's some fast food restaurants as well as sit down. Shopping is available as well with duty free at the beginning. What I don't like is they won't display your gate until it gets close to barding time. The airport isn't that big so it wouldn't be too much of a struggle trying to get to the correct one.

We came here 3 hours before our flight, which is a bit excessive. We couldn't even check in our luggage until 2:30 before the flight. Afterwards we made our way to the security screening. There was only one lane open and it took about 30 minutes. There are some restaurants, but not much else to do. We ended up being here even longer since our flight was delayed over an hour due to strong winds.

As my eyes adjusted to the darkness, I saw tons of rats scurrying inbetween the bricks, their tails waggling and noses twitching. I continued to stare, mesmerised. It was like looking at one of those Magic Eye pictures when you realise there has been something jumping out at you all along.
