Thieves, they always charge twice. On Friday, the taxi fare was about 9 pounds, but they charged me 11. Instead of canceling the first transaction, they charged me 13 again on Monday. This is systematic. I don't know what right you think you have to put your dirty hands in my bank account without warning... you lying again, I have the screenshot straight from my bank account, and you charged me on Friday 10.30 and Monday 13.40 again!!! So stop lying, Let me share the screenshot with everyone here if you sure…..🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

Terrible company. My husband booked a taxi 2 days in advance to get him to an appointment at 9am. 15 minutes past the arranged pick up time there was still no driver assigned and he was close to missing his appointment. When he phoned he was told he has to pay £5 to cancel the taxi that hadn't even been assigned.

I had to get my sick child into the car and take him in my pjs as he would have had to pay for the missed dentist appointment as well as the £5 for the taxi that couldn't show up on time with 48 hours notice.

Me and my Nanny waited for taxi outside tkmaxx Abbeycenter in the cold with someone who has sore knee and learning disability adult aswell for over 45 minutes
I would like discount on my next taxi

I use taxi mostly to get to the airport or central station in strange hours.
Today is another day, when advanced booking didn’t work !!
Avoid if you need to be on time somewhere !! They won’t book in advance - only 20min before your pickup.

I used fonaCAB for the first time today and I would definitely use them again. Booking (by phone) was easily done, the taxi arrived in very good time and the driver was kindly and polite.

Booked taxi to take us on first stage of our holiday!! Taxi driver arrived quickly and was really friendly. When we got to airport we realised my husband had left his phone on back seat. We got in touch with Fonacab who quickly contacted the driver who then had to drive to International Airport with the phone! Thankfully the company and the driver were efficient! Def a 5/5 from me!

Have received excellent customer service recently over an issue I had.Both customer service operators were extremely helpful and courteous. ,chloe,via email and an operator via Facebook messenger(didn't leave their name).as a recently new customer it definitely made me want to continue using the company..I've also found the drivers to be friendly and prompt..I worked in customer service for years and appreciate good service when given.thanks for the help!

Left me stranded on my graduation day … had pre-booked and when I rang to politely check the status of my late running taxi the miserable fellow on the other end simply said I had no booking (despite me speaking directly to him hours beforehand to book) hung up the phone and refused to send a taxi. Not exactly the making of top tier customer service. Instead opted for an Uber which was instantly there and with a driver who couldn’t do more to help! Gosh I do wonder why local taxi firms are losing business…

Here we go again, I phone a taxi at 4:30am, I was told there was know taxis until 5:30am and would I like to book so I did. When the gentleman arrived at 5:30 he told me he had been sitting just around the corner from 5:10 what is going on? Can you tell your customers please as it makes no sense to me

Maybe their drivers could drive more courteously. I was following a taxi in the tight streets around Belfast Cathedral and he just stops in the middle of the road blocking the junction even though there was room to pull in and not cause an obstruction. No thought to other road users, I certainly won't recommend this company.

Since I put a dangerous driving claim about this fonacab driver I will attach a photo were the so called representative stated that there is no bike lane on the Crumlin road that lane is for turning right and for taking over if there is a car turning right, the driver drove on a bike lane and they think that it's the responsibility of both drivers no it's not because your driver would of caused an accident to me or a bike user because he wanted to skip a few cars. Since this is there response I will be doing the same as there drivers are allowed to.

Taxi driver especially fonacab im not going to stop or change direction next time there will be an accident and the police will decide then.

Don't want to hold your drivers responseable then I will.

No sunrise that fonacabs 1.9 stars by this response and blatant lies because I had the driving lane and right of way for your driver to be on the bike lane is absolutely shock behaviour that fona cab let's be part of there practice

My experience with Fon-A-Cab has been alright over the years when just using them in Belfast City Centre. However, lately I am increasingly using Fon-A-Cab to get to and from Belfast International Airport, and find the drivers to be unprofessional and greedy.

I get that there is a surcharge for the drop off at the airport, but exactly how much each driver charges seems to vary widely between £3 and £7 depending on the drivers' mood. Furthermore, most drivers refuse to add the surcharge to the receipt. At the end of the day, I don't even care that much about the surcharge, but without it being listed on the receipt, I cannot claim it back from the company on expenses. Flying about 10 times per month at the moment, this rapidly adds up to a large amount of money I have to pay out of my own pocket.

£5.00 no-show scam!!

I had my home address saved in the app. Booked a cab from my pickup point (saved home address) and waited for the car.
A few moments after the car was due and hadn't turned up I checked my phone and noticed a missed call from the driver. I called the driver's number twice, no reply, so I called the office.

The guy on the phone advised that the cab was booked from an address round the corner from me. As I obviously wasn't there, I had been charged a no-show fee. Confused, I advised there must be a mistake as I booked from my saved address in the app etc and not a random address!! (Please note, this was a Saturday afternoon, not after a night out!) Employee sighed and told me to email customer services and file a complaint.
I received a response on Monday morning stating they are completely within their right to charge a no-show fee..... nonsense.
I mentioned this to a few people in work who informed me that the exact same thing had happened to them. It appears the app will "search" for as close a match as possible to your location regardless of what you have actually entered.
Absolutely disgraceful.
Their app is not fit for purpose and is charging random no-show fees as a result of this. Do not use this taxi company!!!

I have now discovered that I have been wrongfully charged £5.00 for a supposed 'no-show'. That was not the case. In spite of my disability, I WAS at the pickup and I searched and could not find the driver. I was still looking for the driver (who hadn't bothered to try and contact me) and was in the process of trying to call them (through the app) when the booking was arbitrarily cancelled - BY FONACAB - NOT ME! I have used this company for decades and have often recommended them - but if this money is not refunded, I will no longer do either. This is sharp practice and leaves innocent customers at the mercy of the caprice of bad drivers!

Got overcharged , spent weeks trying to resolve complaint , still not refunded

booked a taxi hours in advance to pick me up at 6:15 after work on a friday. i sat and waited and saw a fonacab taxi pulling up across from me and in the 3 seconds that i had glanced at my phone to check if the reg matched my booking a group of lads with suitcases were at the taxis window. the driver saw me approaching the car and signalled the men to get in. i assume they wanted a lift to the airport and the taxi chose them over me to bank a few extra quid. not ideal as it’s not easy to get a taxi in the city centre on a friday night and i was left to wait 20 minutes for another one after a 10 hour shift. thanks fonacab x

Needed a short trip to the city airport in Belfast at 6:30 on a Sat morning. We were 7 minutes away from the airport and thought the quoted £11 was a bit high but couldn't get a response from Uber so accepted it. We were dropped off and got a bill for £15.20. According to Fonacabs own records this was a 7 minute trip, no traffic, no waiting. On complaining to Fonacab they say £5 charge for dropping off at the airport was added on. What is the point of giving an estimated trip cost if they dont include known add ons. I also researched the airport charges which are £3 so not happy that they estimated wrong, failed to let me know until after we had been charged. I am not sure if there were other options but too expensive for what it was.

Pre-booked a taxi 5 hours in advance but it of course didn't turn up. Called the company and was advised if would be another 15-20 minutes. Half an hour later and still no taxi. Called the restaurant and asked to hold table but was advised they could only hold for half an hour. Birthday dinner ruined, thank you phonacab

Go for Valuecab instead. DRIVERS CAN JUST TAKE MONEY if they make a "mistake" finding you, even if location is entered correctly in the app - customer service won't correct it. Drivers throw out forgotten luggage rather than return them to lost and found, and are permitted to loudly berate customers - again, customer service do nothing.

I want to let people know how good the driver with the wheel chair facility is. I booked a wheel chair taxi to and from respite for my mother who is 90 years old and normally bedbound. Morris was our driver and he was fantastic very pleasant and thorough with safety of the wheel chair. He was on time both times and had mum there and back in no time. I would definitely recommend this company and if you need a wheelchair taxi ask for Morris.
