Superb Service

Superb service, from start to end, & beyond.

Patrick, the owner, went out of his way to support & assist with the airport drop-off and pick-up. He was prompt and caring. He literally went the extra mile to assist when the return flight was delayed by 4 hours - he booked a Uber at no cost, who in turn were brilliant also.

Thank you, Patrick. You are truly a star. We are looking forward to our next trip with you.

HIGHLY recommend.

Second time using them and great experience

This is the second time I'm using their service to the airport and this time it was for a return trip.
Went back to them as their prices are competitive and they have been reliable in the past. This time was no exception - reliable and straightforward mostly (I needed a larger vehicle coming back, the option of which wasn't available online so had to contact them for two separate types of transportation for a quote).
Whatsapp responses can be slower than ideal - I later found out that it was because Patrick himself was travelling and as a small business, in these times, he manages most things himself.
Overall, a good experience, Patrick is a joy to chat to which makes the journey to the airport go faster; and I would happily recommend his cars which are also nice and spacious.

Patrick is wonderful

Patrick is wonderful. There was an issue with pick-up, but Patrick rectified it quickly which is what mattered. Will book again.

Unreliable, uncommunicative, and unsafe

We've used Patrick Egwu Transportation before and left a positive review. This time was a completely different experience.

There were eight of us - parents, three kids, and grandparents - travelling to London Gatwick for a 6:20am departure. We paid in full roughly a month ahead of travel.

Communication was the main failure. We heard nothing until 48 hours before departure, when we were asked for flight details. We sent them via WhatsApp. The messages sat unread. We sent a backup email. By 7pm the evening before our 3:15am pickup, we still hadn't had a confirmed time. We called WhatsApp, called the number on the website - nothing.

Eventually we got a message saying we'd have a confirmed pickup time within two hours. That deadline passed without a reply. After chasing again, a confirmation came by email - with completely the wrong dates. I spotted it, flagged it, and a corrected confirmation finally arrived.

The outbound cab did arrive 15 minutes early, which was the one positive. Although it turned out to be Windsor Cars - a local taxi firm - rather than the private hire vehicle we'd had in previous years.

Return journey was worse. Our flight was delayed by around three hours. I messaged before departure with our flight number and asked where to meet the driver. The reply was a mobile number and a pickup spot - no ETA, no registration plate, nothing useful. I'd expected them to track our delayed flight automatically.

On landing I messaged again to confirm our arrival. The taxi wasn't there. After multiple calls - the person we reached had very limited English - the driver finally arrived over an hour later, leaving our whole family, including young children and elderly grandparents, stranded, anxious, and exhausted.

Most seriously: the driver's behaviour behind the wheel was alarming. He sat extremely close to the car in front, drifted between lanes, and appeared to be struggling to keep his eyes open, with several near misses. Whether he was overtired or something else, he had no business driving that night. I cannot stress enough how unsafe that journey felt.

Pricing was reasonable. Everything else fell short. We won't be booking again.

Craig McCart is not a direct customer of ours, and has never booked directly with us. We figured that he is related to William.

Apologies for the delayed responses to your emails, but our priority is to deliver the services that you booked - you received both your vans in good time - first van - 15 minutes ahead of time, second van in good time as well despite your flight being over three hours late and the initial driver having to be replaced due to your delayed flight. Delayed flights create complications, and it is not as simple as "tracking flights". 8 passenger vehicles are also not as replacable at short notice as smaller vehicles.

The wrong dates you highlighted were minor and rectified in seconds. The reason for customers receiving confirmations is for them to check and make sure that their bookings are 100% aligned with their original booking request.

Everything is clear on our website under our Terms & Conditions, it is better that we get a partner to cover our booking than to leave clients stranded. You are fine to pay Virgin Atlantic then fly in a Delta branded aircraft, yet when you see a car service provider doing the same in order to maximise efficiency, you cry fowl.

Your return flight was delayed by over three hours, we delivered the service, gave you relevant driver details ahead of time, told you exactly where to meet the driver, and yet you have said in your writing here that when you landed and was ready for collection you had no driver, which is not true. Constructive critism is good, but it is terrible when you do it and dont say the truth. Then, it is seriously suspicious when an individual gives adverse reviews to the same business across multiple platforms... Like seriously, is it still about the complaint, or is it about more than that?!?!?!

FRAUDULENT - do not use

FRAUDULENT, left me stranded at 1am in an airport pregnant!
WARNING – DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

I pre-booked and paid for a taxi in advance, only to be left stranded at the airport at 1am while pregnant.

When I eventually managed to get hold of the owner, I was told there had been a problem with the phone line and was assured that a refund would be issued immediately. That refund never arrived. Instead, I spent weeks chasing my money, receiving excuse after excuse, before being forced to open a PayPal dispute.

Thankfully, PayPal reviewed the evidence and ruled in my favour, issuing a full refund.

What should have been a simple, pre-booked journey turned into an incredibly stressful and upsetting experience. Leaving a pregnant woman stranded at an airport in the early hours of the morning is bad enough. Failing to take responsibility afterwards and forcing a customer to fight for a refund makes it even worse.

This company took my money, failed to provide the service I paid for, failed to honour its promise of a refund, and only returned my money after PayPal intervened.

I would strongly urge anyone considering booking with this company to think twice.

She has her money in full, plus extra!!! We paid this lady extra in order to mitigate all inconveniences - not few pounds only, but tens of pounds extra. Can she tell us, which other transport provider in London will do the same for her?!?! Does she think that PayPal would have given her money back without our corporation?!?! She did not loose a single penny whilst we on the other hand lost £200 on her order. She has used us for years, then one mistake beyond our control, she attacks our business with no mercy - across multiple platforms. This is no longer about complaint of an incident - her attack against our business is retaliation, harassment, and outright vindictiveness.

She talks of pregnancy, did we know that she was pregnant when she made the booking?!?! She has shown no respect to our business, and has openly disrespected our hardworking boss too many times.

No shame at all!!! It is pitiful when customers that you work hard for years to keep happy, sometimes operating at a loss, tell shameless lies over manageable situations in order to stain the image of service providers. YOU CANNOT KILL OUR BUSINESS!!!!

Another superb service

Another superb service, I needed to go straight from the airport to a party in a rural location outside of London. Patrick’s services were perfect yet again, getting me to and from a remote farmhouse and back to Heathrow for my return to New York. I couldn’t recommend his services more 👏

No show

I’ve used them for years without a problem. This time, they never showed up. My flight was booked thru American Airlines and was operated by British. I only had the AA flight number which I gave when I booked. They sent me an email hours before pick up when I was mid flight to try to confirm the flight number but I had no email access. I booked a week prior so they had plenty of time to confirm with me and there was only one flight from Orlando landing at Gatwick at that time. Now they won’t refund me either direction as they are supposed to take me to the airport but I’d rather not use them. They say it was my fault. I have to say also that the Uber was a bigger car and cheaper. Their reply shows you their customer service MO. I’ve used you at least 8 times and this is my fault because emailing me hours before landing is appropriate because they pay for your air wifi(not). And still no refund. These guys not nice people. Move on. These are nasty individuals. Take my 300 pounds. You guys are just plain nasty and mean and refuse to refund even though it’s because of your incompetency. DO NOT BOOK THESE PEOPLE.

This customer is in the wrong and does not respect our business.

He input the wrong flight details. We could not track his flight and sent him notification ahead of his arrival. Without flight tracking, we cannot send a driver as flight arrivals are very unpredictable. He was briefed sufficiently - we offered him an amicable resolution which he has refused. He made the mistake, and our terms & conditions are absolutely clear in respect to such cases.

Good transport experiences

Booked trips from Heathrow to London, and then return several days later. Also booked transport to and from several restaurants, one a good hour outside of London. Couple drivers were outsourced I believe, but two were with Patrick personally. There were minor blips - one driver cancelled on him last minute, but he had me a business Uber at my hotel instead within 5 minutes of original booking time, and others where road congestion around London had us running very mildly late, but made it to all stops in appropriate time. Most notably, for the transport outside of London, Patrick himself stayed in the area the full time, which was a long dinner that ended up running about a half hour longer than estimated. Then I realized ten minutes out I had forgotten my bag at the restaurant and had to go back. Patrick did all that with good humor and professionalism. Interesting conversation as well, but he also sensed when I had enough talking. I will use again if I return to London.
