GlasGO Cars 4+

I use these cabs often and always find them reliable and fairly quick to arrive. Sometimes you’re waiting 4-5 mins to be assigned a driver but I suppose it depends on demand in the area and how many drivers they have out. Since they merged Hampden Taxis with Network Private Hire and whoever else to create GlasGOcabs, their prices have jumped up astonishingly due to the lack of competition in the area. To be honest I sometimes book a Glasgow Hackney Taxi and a GlasGOcab at the same time as I know the price will be similar then cancel the cab which doesn’t assign a driver first. I know fuel prices and the cost of living have a part to play in the increased fares but the hike is very expensive in comparison to what we paid before when the companies were separate. Uber is always another option but their fluctuating rates can sometimes be more expensive. The app is good, sometimes a tad slow to update position as I’ve had calls from drivers who say they’re outside waiting yet the app is telling me they’re still 400m away so don’t be surprised if you get a call whilst waiting for your cab to arrive.

I never ever leave reviews, but the glasgow ans surrounding areas taxi apocalypse thats happened since covid has been brutal for everyone. Even when you do get a taxi after 4 hours they charge you a days wage for a 15/20 minute journey. Since ive downloaded GlasGo cabs gen up been rapid every single time. Drivers been sound every single and and not paid a penny more than what i would say was fair. Also no mad stinking hidden fees like you get on uber. Pay £50 for a 10 minute uber then you wake up with a notification saying you have been charged £10 for the driver having to wait at a red light for more than 25 seconds.

Never been treated so disgustingly by a company. I pre booked a cab and 10 minutes before my time it said they were assigning a car. I phoned and was told they only assign cars 10 minutes before the pick up date. I questioned why bother having pre-booking as I need led my cab at this time and I can’t see anything in the area. After some back on forth I had to hang up as my one year old was requiring assistance. I noticed a cab had been booked, dealt with him and came back and it had been cancelled. I immediately booked another and phoned up to ask why my previous one was cancelled. “Because we tried to call and you didn’t answer” was the response I got. I said that doesn’t mean you can cancel my cab, and was to by the rudest woman I have ever spoken to that yes they can. I then said to launch a complaint and she said no, and if you’re gonna complain I’m cancelling this cab too. She then hung up. Avoid this rude, vile company. I will be launching a massive complaint and making sure this gets picked up.
