Metro Taxis

Reviewed By julieaL6391RD - Stockport, United Kingdom

Used this company on a one off emergency trip from Stepping Hill Hospital. The driver was on time very understanding polite and friendly. As it was midnight and my flat is on a walk with no street lamps he dropped me off to my door and carried my bags in shortly after as I have walking difficulties. Great driver what a gem next time I use this firm I will be requesting the same driver I think his number was 271. Overall five star.

Lynx Taxis

Reviewed By Henrietta456 - Greater Manchester, United Kingdom

I've been using Lynx ever since I had to stop driving due to severe arthritis and I have never had a problem with them. Their drivers are very helpful and normally let me sit in the front passenger seat (obviously not under the current problem) because it's easier for me to get in and out. They are very polite and also help me with my shopping - one driver offered to take it right to my doorstep, bless him. The knack is to ring up and book in plenty of time - of. course you'll have to wait if you leave it to the last minute and there are no cars in your immediate area. I've just booked a taxi for a hospital appointment tomorrow, explained the appointment time and let the man on the phone tell me what time they will pick me up. Booking a taxi is a two person agreement - taxis don't have wings - yet ;-)
