LYNX TAXIS Reviews 

Every time I request a taxi it goes tot he wrong address, despite them having the correct address and post code provided. It is not the drivers fault. It seems to be an error in the software they use.
I've complained on each occasion but to date this has not been resolved.
Taking my custom elsewhere

Very disappointing
I will be using another company from now on

So gave my last lynx driver a poor review for being rude to me and my daughter when asked to drop us off short of our destination (having paid in full for the whole ride to my original destination)

ANYWAY today’s driver was an absolute delight … I had to go back into the house for something… nothing was too much trouble for him.
Great recovery for the Lynx team … so much so that my wife did not want to use them !!

Anyway all good now 😎🤩

Booked a ride on app for an early morning short trip 24 hours prior and paid.
I received confirmation it was received and booked. At time taxi was due an alert came up saying driver had rejected fare. I rang Lynx and they said would have someone there in 5 mins - 10 mins later and several messages telling me various drivers had rejected ride I checked and found an Uber nearby for considerably less. Cancelled Lynx and in 2 mins I was in taxi writing this.
Will never use Lynx again app deleted. Have given you a lot of business over years but you’ve lost mine now.

I have noticed that there are an incredible amount of these taxis driving around all over Stockport with poor drivers at the wheel and no one in them. I wonder why?

This taxi firm is hideous. How they have a contract with the hospitals across Manchester when they treat poorly children and their carers with contempt is beyond me! They tell you what time they're coming to the house, then come 30mins + early and proceed to spam your phone and beep their horn whilst in my case, I'm getting an unwell child ready. When it's time to transport you home you wait forever and get a taxi that stinks of vape, a driver who is miserable as sin and little understanding of the English language. If you call them, they put you through to the accounts dept. I spoke to Ameera today and she was vile, zero customer service skills. My daughter could hear how she was speaking to me and was in disbelief. When the taxi finally arrived, the taxi driver Abdul was equally foul. Because I had my daughters with me for moral support for my son and it's the holidays he refused to let us in (there was more than enough capacity for them), and because I said this has never been an issue before he decided to cancel the ride. In what world does a taxi firm dealing with sick children have such irrational, rigid rules?? Ended up taking an Uber.

I am hating taking my son to the hospital not for what he is going in for daily but having to deal with these awful people, they have no soul. I have enough stress at the moment with a poorly child without dealing with these horrible people.

They have a hospital contract & left my daughter & her poorly child in Manchester royal children's for 4 hours stranded, disgraceful!!

Lynx Taxi - A Terrible Decline

I’ve been working with Lynx Taxi for almost 8 years, and I’ve never experienced the kind of issues that have come up since Derek joined as manager. The company used to be decent, but now they change the rules every day just to satisfy their egos. There’s no support or communication for drivers anymore, and we’re treated more like slaves than valued workers. Derek has made things worse, not better – instead of solving problems, he’s creating them. It’s a shame to see how bad this company has become. I can't recommend Lynx Taxi to anyone.

The timing the detail received by text about the location of the taxi its make model registration and cleanliness etc was just good couldn't ask for more

They left us and another (separate) couple stranded. We booked a taxi a few days before to pick us up at 11.30pm after a gig at Withenshaw Park. After waiting half an hour we called and were told we would get a text when the car was in its way. Another 15 minutes they called to say they were trying to find a driver. We called back after a bit to be told the driver was just dropping someone off and would be 10minutes. Eventually we gave up and got in a passing cab. Ten hours later we’re still waiting for a text to say the cab’s been dispatched.
Oh and forgot to mention the can that took us to the Park went through a red light snd nearly caused an accident.

Use lynx alot for work but tonight ehen out alone. They didnt even turn up. Stood on a street corner gor nearly an hour. Operator said they had been and gone. Liars. Disappointing

I wish I could give no stars. Booked online and they gave me details of 3 different taxis which were apparently on route to me, and then just left me stranded.

I pre-booked online a taxi from Lynx Taxis to pick me up from Macclesfield railway station. The taxi did not arrive and, half an hour after the scheduled time I had booked the taxi for, I called up and was told there were no taxi drivers in Macclesfield that they could send to me. What is the point of me pre-booking a taxi if one is not going to show up for the time and location I booked it for? I cancelled my booking and booked a taxi with another operator which arrived only a few minutes later and took me to my destination.

I've never saw a taxi company that takes money from you account when you sign up. £1.01 was taken from my account for no service. That amount should be deducted from your first booking. I won't recommend signing up with them.

Saturday the 6th took a taxi up to gawsworth hall, asked the driver would I need to book for my return journey at 10pm, he said it wouldn’t be a problem.
Concert finished and I called cab for myself and 2 friends to return and was told 20 minutes. After half hour I called back and was told another 20 mins. After further half hour rang back and was told it was on the way. We were 3 women in the pitch black so after another half hour I called back and was told another 20 mins. I explained we were 3 women no street lights and needed to know it was on the way. The call handler put the phone down on me so we were left stranded. Totally unacceptable, I would not recommend as too unreliable. Very disappointing service. I advise NOT to use.

I booked a minibus for myself and friends last night, on the way back the driver tried to argue that the agreed £59 return with 2x drop offs should be £70. After calling base and them listening to the booking recordings, I reiterated and paid the agreed price.
After this, the driver Shahid became insulting towards us, shouting and calling us “middle class scum” and “elderly”. He then refused to move from our road in an attempt to be intimidating. We will never be using Lynx taxis again and thankfully it did not ruin a great evening we had.

Didn’t show up, nearly missed a very expensive, when I phoned up the operated didn’t even apologise

I recently used Lynx for a ride and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The driver arrived promptly, and the ride was smooth and comfortable. The fare was reasonable and the overall service was excellent. I would definitely recommend them for anyone in need of reliable transportation.

Using lynx for years and never had a problem. Always reliable and on time. Cheap fares compared to other companies too!! Great service 5***

First time I have used Lynx Taxis from Colshaw to Macclesfield. I will definitely be using them again. On time and professional
