Why are the cars not displaying ABC logo. Cars are arriving but you don't know they are taxis. To make matters worse you don't receive a text to say it has arrived do you have no idea if this is a genuine taxi. If they do display a logo it's usually so tiny you wouldn't spot it in dark. This is happening more often now. Also have they started charging more if you pay in cash because I have done the same journey if car is regular taxi displaying logo seem to pay a different price. Lots of new very surly drivers don't want to get out of car to help with bags in boot. It's a shame because ABC were a topclass taxi service under the previous owners. I think I would be reluctant to order a taxi late at night without knowing before you get in it is an actual taxi. Too dangerous in this day and age. .Moreexpand_more

Absolutely shocking. I always book a taxi the day before to take my kids to school the following morning and ever day without fail they are late. Everytime is getting later and later nearly half an hour today! If you can't ensure a taxi to be in time don't expect the booking simple!

I would never recommend this taxi company at all. Booked a taxi over the phone and had to pay upfront. The lady has booked it for different time than requested and when I called to complain I have been told that I need to pay again if I want them to pick me up at the time I wanted to.

This is my local taxi firm, and it has been one myself and people I know have used for years. There have been many instances for a bad review, but this instance takes the cake. Myself and my partner pre-booked a taxi for 1:55pm, to allow for plenty of time for traffic to arrive at a Christening for 2:30pm. Our destination was 15 minutes away. The driver didn’t show up until sometime between 2:10 and 2:15pm. We had to call to find out he would be late because the firm didn’t update us. He didn’t apologise. Grunted a hello and started driving. Fine, as long as we get there ok. He then proceeds to take the longest route possible to get to where we need to be, so that our ETA would now be 2:35pm. He remained silent throughout our journey, but was quite evidently listening to our mutterings about being late, when he dropped his speed to below the speed limit for the final part of our journey. We enquired about having a discounted fare due to the fact he was late picking us up, and due to missing our event. He told us we would have to ask the firm as it isn’t up to him, that’s fine. My partner called them and explained to the operator our situation, and he said he would have to pass us to the supervisor. This woman was the rudest person I have ever encountered and definitely shouldn’t be working in a customer service position. Before my partner had even uttered a word she came on the phone shouting and being rude based entirely on a relayed message from the operator. My partner tried to explain that not only was our driver late for collecting us on a pre-booked ride, but that we were now late for our event. After digging through the foul language and the bad attitude, listening to her shout at her down the phone from arms length, we discovered she couldn’t help us because it was at the drivers discretion to discount us because they have no control over their wages as the drivers are self employed. She wouldn’t tell him, her employee, that he would be losing some of their rides fare due to his own poor time keeping skills - because he is self employed. By a taxi firm, that he works for. If you translate that into layman’s terms, that means he is an employee earning commission from each fare. Not self employed. Either way, the taxi firm seems to have no control over what their drivers do, what time they show up for rides, if they do a good job etc, and nor do they seem to care. The way that woman spoke to myself and my partner today was absolutely disgusting, and I genuinely feel for anybody who has to encounter such a horrible human. The icing on the cake though, was when we arrived at our destination and I noticed that a note had popped up on the drivers device, all in caps stating “ITS NOT OUR FAULT WE’VE GOT NO CARS, EVERYBODY’S TAXIS ARE LATE TODAY!”. - A taxi firm with no cars should not accept bookings, and also, a taxi firm with no cars that accepts any booking is most definitely at fault. As is a taxi firm that knows their customers are going to be late and doesn’t advise them to make alternative arrangements in advance, rather than just showing up when they feel like. It is entirely that taxi firms fault, and it is most definitely the fault of the supervisor on that shift. To speak to customers in that way, with such disrespect and utter contempt… I’m flabbergasted that such a person could be hired at all in a customer facing position - I’m not surprised she’s shoved in an office so people can only face her over the phone. I’ll be using any and all of their competitors from now on, and I’ll implore everybody I know to do the same. I also implore anybody who hasn’t yet used this service but is looking for a taxi, don’t use this one.Moreexpand_more

Its a shame I can't give them zero stars. They use self employed drivers who take peoples belongings then dont admit to it. Reported as theft to the police but I wouldn't trust any of them as far as I can throw them. 2 occasions this has happened but ace abc take no responsibility as the drivers are "self employed" please dont use this taxi company!

Didn't text or email or knock to sat they were outside the address we had booked them from. Rude and aggressive on the phone when we booked and chased them up. Didn't alow us to book again. Pretty standard really for a mansfield taxi firm.

I have used Ace - Abc nearly every day for the last 21 years, had great drivers, excellent service very reliable, very rare ever a problem. Over the last 6 months I have tried at various times during the day to book a taxi but cannot get one for love or money always told 40mins - 1 hour wait. They state they have the most cars in Mansfield on the road well where are they. Even when you pre-book you cant guarantee the taxi will arrive in time which is the reason why you pre-book? The automated service is rubbish as well because will tell you taxi is booked then you are still waiting 30 mins later. There is one particular gentleman answering the phone who needs to be sacked because he is so rude and abrupt. The drivers always used to be extremely polite and curitis but now half of them are so rude. The standards of cleanliness of a few of the cars leaves a lot to be desired. 622222's are now the most reliable taxi service in Mansfield and there staff are always polite and helpful on the phone and they turn up on time and you dont have to keep chasing where your taxi is. The ACE- ABC app need to be more user friendly, I don't like the idea of paying up front because even when you book a taxi cant guarantee it will arrive. Sad to say ACE -ABC is no longer the best reliable taxi service in Mansfield and rivals 622222 offer a far more reliable speedier service. What a turn around.Moreexpand_more

Do not use, you have to pre pay on the app and if you need to cancel you have to wait 4 working days to get your money back, , , , , , used to be a good company but now a very bad company.

After a very rude driver refused to ring through as our taxi was late, I rang through and a most helpful gentleman sorted us out, Had a wonderful courteous driver, will definitely use again x.
Response : We are pleased to hear the issue was sorted.

Hi rang for wheelchair access was told I would have to book a minibus which would cost twice the price ridiculous.
Response : This is not the case. The minibus is the only vehicle that can accommodate a wheelchair without the passenger having to transfer. The minibus is charged at car plus a half regardless of there being a wheelchair involved or not. It is a larger vehicle so is charged at a higher rate with a set minimum charge.

Awful service. Left a young girl waiting for significant amount of time and told different stories when chased over the phone. Made her miss her train and stranded in Mansfield.
