It's just over 3 miles surely £15.00 is way over the top?

Yeah most the ones i have done are the same, what do you make of it?
It seems as though this is a bit of a rip off maybe to people who dont know the area they wish to travel to. :roll:

Yes, I think you're right - the prices seem well above the going rate.

But this isn't untypical of these type of sites, and as usual the vague references to 'executive' and the like could mean anything, except, of course, the price that people are paying.

These sites often make a big deal about being good for customers, but what they often seem to do is make things more cofusing and misleading.

you can be sure that all they do is contact a local PH company who will do the work for the normal flat rate, and then the site owner pockets the difference.

bit of a rip off, but still more relistic than that other website that was on here a while back.
