“Booked rides for arrival and departure. Arrival OK. For depart to airport, the driver couldn’t find me altho Iwas standing at the curb with luggage in front of designated hotel. Biggest concern was being charged $45 each ride when the taxi meter read $11. Ouch. Felt victimized for not knowing the city distances. Now I do extensive research and use another company.”

“****No notification that they were unable to fulfil pickup. Let down at last minute for airport transfer**** I booked a pickup for 7:30am from the city centre of Granada to the airport. The evening before I received a confirmation email with details of the driver. When I text the driver that night he said he could not fulfil the pick up and that Welcome Pickups would be Assignment someone else. The next morning at 7:00a.m. I had received no communication from Welcome pickups. Because I was concerned that a driver may not have been assigned, I phoned the help desk. Only at that point customer services admit that they could not fulfil the collection (bear in mind they knew the night before, but did not contact me!) I received a refund, but was left well and truly in the lurch, scrabbling round in a panic to get a taxi so I did not miss my flight. It is disgusting. The only reason I booked with them was for peace of mind and reliability. I will NEVER use them again!”

Dear Nicola, I am sorry to hear about the issues you had with your pickup. Thank you very much for taking the time to further discuss with our Customer Care team and we apologize for the service received. I am confident that you will receive the Welcome experience upon your next trip. Once again we apologise for any inconvenience caused. Thank you.

“They won’t give me a refund for cancelling my pickup due to THEM being booked full on the day of the pick up I needed. The company’s page says before you press cancel trip, says you’ll receive a full refund - but after talking with customer care, that refund image is shown to everyone even if not true. Terrible company. They wanted to give me a discount of $5 but what is $5 to a company that ROBBED ME OF $80???”

Dear Johannah, Our Customer Care team has contacted you directly in regards to any misunderstanding with your previous booking. We apologise for any confusion this experience has caused. We appreciate the time you have taken to discuss this with us further. Thank you.

“Was left stranded at Malaga airport when I rang they said they had emailed me to cancel pick up and refunded money - not true as refund was only done 30 minutes after I called . Got taxi outside airport for same price. Not impressed on customer service, guy on phone didn’t even apologise , will not be using again”

We also apologize for the attitude of our customer support team member you had on the phone. Thank you again, We wish you all the best,

“Flight was delayed, so missed connecting flight to Prague. Because it was within 3 hours of booked time, company would not reschedule or refund my 30 euros. This is poor service. Beware.”

Posted 5 years ago

Hello there. We are sorry to hear about the delay but we would like to let you know that we actually reschedule pickups in those cases. Would you like to send us a private response with your contact details so we can look into this and offer a solution? Thank you very much

“We had problems with car size and luggage and they would not send another vehicle for us. We spoke to Alex and sent in pictures and confirmed information still no response. We were literally stranded. Would not recommend this service. Customer service very poor.”

Posted 5 years ago

Hello there. Thank you for your feedback. We do have to apologize for not the incident. It appears the photos you send to our customer support agent were too big and we were unable to see them properly. Unfortunately, we were unable to reach you afterward and have been trying since, without success. We would love if you could tell us when and how we can reach you via a private reply so we can find a suitable solution in reparation for your troubles. Thank you

“I have used Welcome pick ups on several occasions with no issues or problems until my last trip. Upon arrival to the destination the driver arrived late and then expected me to make my way out of the airport to his vehicle. On our return transfer the driver again did not arrive on time and I was only notified of the delay 15 minutes before I had to leave to catch my flight. Customer services were not supportive at all and told me to arrange alternative transport! To say I was unhappy is an understatement, finding a taxi was impossible at such short notice for a family. I contacted customer services again and they apparently found a new driver who would arrive on time.. he was nowhere to be seen. When the driver eventually arrived (30 minutes later than the stated time) it was not the new driver but the original allocated driver who was running late. The customer service was very poor and misleading, I was given inaccurate information throughout our discussions and they even hung up the call at one point. I was told I would receive a call back following my trip to see what went wrong but I am yet to receive this. Disappointing customer service and due to this I will not be using this service or recommending to friends/ family or business associates.”

Hello there, Thank you for reaching out and for your trust. We must apologize for the stressful situation this must have been for you. There was indeed a mishap concerning your transfer. When it was evident that your original driver wasn't unable to reach you on time, a second driver was dispatched but it was only afterward that it appears that the second driver was too far away to arrive on time. After all our attempts to minimize the delay, your original driver eventually arrived. The customer support team has been investigating your case to properly understand what happened as we recognize that this is not what Welcome is all about. We have made several attempts to reach out to you today without success and even left a voice message. Rest assure that we will continue trying to reach you to find a suitable reparation to the incident. Thank you again, Best,

“We were informed the drivers car seat for our baby was broken once we walked to the car and loaded our bags in. He told us to hold him in the back and when we contacted the main company about our concerns, safety didn’t seem to be a priority for them.”

Posted 5 years ago

Thank you for leaving your review. We want to apologize for the poor driving skills of our Welcomer as well as for the broken car seat. Unfortunately, due to high demand, it was the only car seat left the day of your transfer and it was impossible for us to provide another one. Whenever this happens, we give the customer the option to cancel the transfer for a full refund. In your case, we refunded your transfer partially as the transfer did occur. Please accept our apologies again. We do hope the solution suits you. If we can be of any help, please let us know. Thank you again,

“Tried to book return pick up to Prague airport having received texts from this company to make this booking. Having not received confirmation of our booking we assumed the transaction had not been processed ,and having tried to contact the company without success, we made a further booking which was confirmed. After our pick up and on route to the airport we received a call from a second driver that he was waiting for us. We told him that we were already on route which he accepted. At this time we sent notification to Welcome informing them of the situation. Upon return to UK we discovered that we had been charged twice for the same journey, both with the same reference. Any attempt at contact with customer services has been ignored. I suggest it unwise to use this company, has anyone else had similar experience...”

Thank you for leaving your feedback, we want to apologize for the delay in our response as we had to conduct a thorough investigation of what happened and provide you with the best solution as our customer care representative told you over the phone. We hope you will still give us a second chance in the near future, should you ever travel to one of our destinations again! Best,

“Contratei o serviço de transfer aeroporto-hotel-aeroporto em Madri. Aeroporto-hotel para o dia 28/01 Hotel-aeroporto para o dia 01/02 Somente a segunda viagem aconteceu. A primeira foi cancelada menos de 24 horas antes, sem reembolso do valor pago.”

Carina, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. As you were in Madrid at the time, you probably have noticed that there was almost a month of taxi strike in the Spanish capital, which prevented us to operate. However, your booking had been processed through our partner Mozio, who has yet to process your refund. I recommend you contact them directly through their customer support service and they will be happy to proceed with your refund. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you will receive your refund shortly.

“the driver never show up”

Posted 5 years ago

“Our flight was delayed and the driver became completely unavailable, although he confirmed he'd pick us up despite the delay. There was no number to call (the driver simply rejected my calls), so I had no support whatsoever from the company - they're only available via email. It was extremely stressful as it was very late by that stage. On top of that they're twice the price of a regular taxi off the street in Lisbon and you have to prepay. At least they refunded my payment, so that was the only positive.”

“Cancelled on us for a Hong Kong pickup at the last minute,had been on cruise ship with no internet to get their email message and they didn’t eve; attempt to call so we sat waiting for them for ages. Cab was much cheaper anyway..”

“Did you really read my comments about the unreliable service that you provided????? R u willing to post THAT for potential clients.? I highly doubt it. I would love to see it posted. The 5 star was for the DRIVER NOT for your services!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I repeat for the driver NOT for your service!!! Wake up....be a reliable and responsible service to clients who put their trust in YOU!!!! I did and was I ever let down, big time!!!!!!!! I am never putting myself in YOUR hands ever again!!! IT was NEITHER a good way to start my holiday NOR a good way to end it. Thanks a lot for the huge disappointment from beginning to end. Oh yes. I have learned my lesson. I think my next letter will be to VIATOR. You do not deserve to be trusted. Besides it was cheaper to use a taxi (39 euros from hotel to Orly airport whereas you were charging 55euros.) Figure that one out) than your unreliable company. Most totally unsatisfied Most unacceptable...I just saw that clients are referred to as delivery/item.No wonder you have such a hard time with real time people. C S”

“Bad driver who actually drive without following any traffic rules!”

“No welcome. No transfer. Only 3 emails sent during my flight which arrived after I'd already wasted 40 minutes at the airport in Corfu looking for them. Email 1 - we've cancelled your booking. Email 2 - we've refunded your money. Email 3 - no drivers available. Useless, especially at 20.10 pm.”

“I got to Moscow and there was no one there. I had no internet but tried to telephone - no such number. I waited for 1 1/2 hours as did another family who had also booked this company before getting a taxi. I picked up an e-mail on arrival at the hotel saying they didn't have a driver - this was sent after I was already on the flight to Moscow. Not good arriving in a strange city. The taxi was cheaper as well!”

“Were let down at the last minute. Car did not turn up to take us to the airport. Spent a very stressful morning trying to get alternative transport. What should have been a leisurely last day turned out to be a nightmare. Spent a great deal of money on a taxi. Would never consider this company again. Read the reviews on their facebook page. There are many such stories like ours. Still awaiting the promised refund. Shambolic”
