Always a happy customer
I had to take a taxi to get to an appointment and the app is brilliant. Including ability to pay via the app and to have a fixed rate for the travel is really helpful.
The drivers both ways were lovely and on the way in I even get a tip on how to get to the right department once at the location. On the way back I got into about a road work on the way.
I like a bit of a chat on most days so both trips were really pleasant.
Cars are always clean and currently very well kept in the guidelines of social distancing. Would always recommend as fast and reliable service.

Friendly and helpful drivers
Drivers are always friendly and very helpful. Whether its getting me to work to te hospital on time and parking as close to the entrance as possible, or, helping carrying my shopping in and out of the car to my door along with my pram as u usually have my little one with me. I live that you can now pay with card as this makes it very easy for me as I never carry cash- the only critique I have is that sometimes the card machines are not working which is then a pain for me and the driver but otherwise would be 5 stars.

Best local taxi service in Basildon
I always use A&B taxis. They are always on time, the cars are clean, drivers pleasant and I like that they send a text when the car is on the way and then when it has arrived. Excellent service all round.

Hi,
I know it’s been a tough year for everyone. But me myself have had a tough three years with health problem, and have been unable to drive, without your team it would have been impossible to get to work at the hospital. So I would like to thank you, fir your service and support for the past three years. 😉

Your service is great!
Your service is great. All drivers are qualified and they are doing great job at this time. Your service deserve a five stars.
But new application is absolutely uncomfortable. Is there any chance to get the old one?

Big, strong and reliable
I have been using A&B taxis for the past 13 years, most times they are very punctual and occasionally I have had to rind them up and complain.
Above all, they are very reliable and dependable taxi company in Essex. I will recommend them anytime
