Taxi

Enjoying a drop of red.
No. None of them is worthy of a recommendation, unless you value being let down/driven by a psychopath/treated rudely/just plain ripped off.

Shame we don't have Uber.

Avoid Kaminskis at all cost. Westlife, or as some like to call them Westside, are the only ones I use, if I need a taxi. 01785 225588.
Used Kaminskis a lot when I lived in Stafford, always found them to be OK, unless it was 'regular customer syndrome'.

A colleague was flying to Frankfurt at ridiculous o clock in the morning from Manchester.

Booked Kaminski

They never showed up.

I used go the quiz at the Spittal Brook every Wednesday, 1 week I booked Kaminskis to pick me up after the quiz had finished. It never turned showed, I rang them only to be told "He's on his way, with you in 5 minutes". That 5 minutes turned into almost an hour. I rang Westside, had a taxi there within 10 minutes. If anyone asks me to recommend a taxi firm, I will always give them Westsides number.

We usually use Westside who have turned up each time.( But I do end up feeling sick most times with smelly cars and crap driving.)

When we came back from The Swan the other week, receptionist called Aerocars for us. Turned up straight away, nice clean car, nice driver, who offered help with my case (westside bloke had left me to struggle getting his boot open to retrieve it on the way down there). And price was cheaper . He was the one who got tipped and we are giving Aerocars a call first next time.

This one for me - 225588, no idea who they are but they have never let me down on the rare early morning airport trip that requires us to use a taxi

I DO NOT recommend the Asian drivers who have a rank at the station. Rude, wouldn't lift our suitcase and charged much more than I'd been charged for the same journey previously.
