Posted: Sep 03, 2016
A lot of factors must be watched upon while you are booking the Tunbridge airport taxis. Since Tonbridge in the UK is one of the best populated zones connected to 5 nearby airports, and since the city receives a good amount of traffic from each of the airport, the numbers of passengers coming to Tonbridge are also high. Heathrow airport, Gatwick airport, the London City airport, London Luton airport and the London Stansted airport all are close to Tonbridge, where it takes the lowest time of 1hr 07 mins to travel between Gatwick and Tonbridge, and the longest time of 1 hrs 48 mins to travel between Luton and Tonbridge.
Hence it’s quite evident that you can easily take a taxi from any of these airports to reach Tonbridge or may instead avail a taxi from Tonbridge to reach any of these vicinity airports. Whichever route you take, you must know some facts and tips to make this ride joyful and smooth rather than bumpy and full of tension.
Is the taxi hire service a reputed one?
The taxi hire service must be a reputed one. Reputation does not just come from heavy advertisements. It comes from the time the company is on market. If you are hiring a service, first look at the company profile. There must be a stable website of the company that looks good or okay, and the website must have a full rate chart, and complete information of taxi hire. It must look like a brand, and should have name in market. To know how much time they have been serving, one great way is to read customer reviews.
What other customers have to say about it?
Old and existing customers who used the services some time ago, or frequently use the services always have a lot to say. You must therefore read customer reviews, and evaluate the services of the taxi hire.
Compare the rates
One very good thing to research about is the types of cars they are providing on hire, and the various rates fixed for those. Rates based on car type, kilometers travelled, and pick up points, duty hours, extended hours etc, all must be really transparent through the website. You must compare the rates with another similar taxi hire to know that they are showing some parity or giving better lower rates.
How is the customer service support?
The customer service support system of the Toubridge airport taxis must be good enough, so that they may be called upon at any odd hours and should be reachable 24x7. That is how you may reach them should you face any problem with the services.
Cancellation and modification policies
A customer may need to cancel a taxi after booking; or may need to modify the date or time. This should be an easy policy, and not much of harassment for the customer. If you check out that this facility is good enough with the Tonbridge taxi hire service, you are good to go with them.
