2 of ours would be outside having a fag, another would be on HER phone or texting and then theres the google feedback.....

Customer service is horrible, I am talking so nicely and they are literally answering or giving info like I shouldnt have called them. Seriously teach your people who answers the phone to speak nicely.

Would rate 0 if I could. Asked for a quote and they put the phone down on me. I phoned back and she was very rude and disrespectful and she needs to learn some manners.

Don't touch them with a bargepole. Unreliable and rude.



It sounds as if these people have been trained by some Council Officers as a lot of them do not answer phones,e-mails or direct questions.

Building A14 2.0 which will be 7 or 8 miles longer than the current version and you will have to further south to down the new alignment of the A1 to join it BUT it will be 3 lanes wide and 4 lanes wide at the Cambridge end Allegedly

Punters who say they will meet you at the same place you dropped them off at the airport, and then ring you up and ask why you are not at the drop off point.

And then they realise they have flown into a different terminal to the one they left. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Front seat passengers who lean forward and look left, blocking your view as you're trying to check left at a junction !

Punters who keep you waiting then get in the car and ask if you can speed like buggery to catch the train.

Having two or more passengers one of which farted something dead thus putting you the driver under some suspicion from the other non farting passenger....you can see their eyes staring at you in the rear view mirror as one of them trys to divert guilt away from themselves in an attempt to blame you :-$
