Fairfare.co.uk Taxi Transfer

Hi all,

Just wanted to give a tip for those needing taxi tranfers. I've just booked a taxi through the website Fairfare.co.uk where you specify the journey you're after and the price you're willing to pay and taxi firms accept your proposal if they are happy with it.

I'd rung local companies for a quote and was getting back prices in the region of £160-£170 minimum, but by using this site, I've got my journey for £125 with a meet and greet service! That saving will buy us a fair few holiday beers! :beer:

Using the site for the first time, I was a little dubious about booking through the internet and not speaking to a real person, but I've since had email correspondance from a guy at the taxi firm that took my booking. He has reassured me and answered all of my questions and I've found that they have a website where I can see that they are a proper outfit which has put my mind at rest!

Sorry if it's been mentioned before, but I did a quick search and couldn't see anything for this company!

    From South Bucks to Gatwick, return in an MPV. Set out time is 5.30am which some taxi firms were charging more for.
