“I booked two transfers to and from airports in Buenos Aires. I got a better price elsewhere, about half the price. When I cancelled Welcome charged me 20% of the booking price. I am booking 6 months ahead of travel date. There is no reason to charge me for cancelling. There is nothing spelled out on the website. But even with the 20% cancellation penalty I am still paying much less than quoted by Welcome.”

“We were supposed to be picked up at 12:00 in Athens on August 1, 2025. We sent numerous WhatsApp messages and received no response. Two hours later we received a message that the driver said that he was there but in a parking lot outside the airport, not at the designated meeting point. He sent a picture showing that he arrived at the pickup point in the Arrivals Hall at 1:01, over an hour later than scheduled, Meanwhile , we got a taxi. Company says that there would be no refund because he did come, despite being over an hour late and not responding to our messages,”

“I booked a transfer from the airport to our hotel as my wife is 73, disabled, requiring wheelchair assistance and unable to stand in a taxi queue. When we arrived at the airport I received a message saying our transfer had been cancelled due to driver unavailability. This caused huge inconvenience and we were offered no compensation despite being a frequent customer.”

“Be careful when booking an airport pick in Istanbul, as they need the name of both passengers but there is no place when booking to do this and because of this we were left stranded at the airport. Do not book welcome pick ups in Idtanbul”

“Dreadful experience. Never again. Driver refused to take a backpack and small carry on claiming it wouldn’t fit in car and he would be fined. Refused ride. Nonsense. Would have fixed perfectly. His boss said they would take cases but would charge extra €44 . End result. We didn’t get ride and company kept €65 for doing nothing. On complaining on line ( you can’t speak to a human) a robot called Ring sends a pathetic sorry but tough luck response. Avoid this mob.”

“This company does not provide invoice. You need to get your invoice from driver, however driver cannot provide the invoice for the full amount you paid for your transportation, he can provide the invoice for only the amount which is paid to him by this company. You have to deal with the driver. This is not normal, I booked from this company and this company should provide the invoice for the full amount which I paid.”

“Very dissatisfied with car service and customer service in Spain. Drivers came late, often not the driver or car assigned, and customer service responds with discounts for future rides. Who is going to book again after being stood up? Our driver was over 20 minutes late for an airport pickup and never called or texted to notify us, leaving us anxious. Thoroughly and consistently bad service in Spain.”

“Absolutely awful experience! I ordered the ride ahead of time to Vancouver airport for 4:30 am from the location 1 hour away from the airport. The driver NEVER ARRIVED and HUNG UP ON ME when I called. Driver's name is - Jaspreet Singh. It's a miracle I did not miss my flight thanks to the Taxi company that made an effort to find a driver in this remote location at such early hour on such a short notice. Don't use this company!”

“I hired a car in Nassau, Bahamas. The only reason I used this service was because they guaranteed there would be two car seats for my infant and toddler. We checked the day before and the morning of pickup. Car seats confirmed. When the driver arrived there were none. Don’t believe a word they say!”

“We're still waiting for a refund for the service your company didn't provide. We'll file a complaint with the appropriate authorities if we still don't receive a response. “Complaint: (e-mail send 20-07-25 - No response ) Order n#w-4967009 We arrived at the airport on time, and there were a lot of people at customs. The driver called, we asked to wait 15 minutes. When we arrived at the meeting point, there was no driver. We took a cab and paid 400 cny plus 100 tolls. We asked for a refund of the amount paid to the taxi, a total of 500 cny. * The driver confirmed by phone that waited 15 minutes and didnd´t do it. A aeroport like Beijing with the landing and the time to go through customs, taking the subway to get the suitcase is impossible to do in one hour . We are waiting for a refund for services not provided.”

“I wouldn’t ever take a taxi in Florence again.Yesterday we went twice as far and it took twice as long for a fee of 14 euros. Today we went half the distance and it took half the time and it was 17 euros. When we got to the train station he hit a button on his dashboard and added 5.75 euros to the service.Not Cool. I won’t be using them again when the tram and bus systems are so cheap and easily navigatable.”

“You have changed the driver and the type of the car I have paid for, without informing me in advance, while I was in the flight. I demand a refund as I paid for a different kind of car! In addition I had to search for the driver 20 minutes in the heat outside the airport, and when I tried to contact your company by phone nobody replied. This was an abysmal experience. I will never use your company again!”

“I had a truly terrible experience with Welcome Pickups that I feel compelled to share to warn others. I arranged this transfer specifically for my 86-year-old grandmother, who does not speak the language of the country she was traveling to. I booked in advance and provided all the flight details. For reasons I still don’t understand, the driver started counting the waiting time from the landing time, which makes absolutely no sense—nobody exits the airport the moment a plane lands. There was a long line at immigration, and by the time my grandmother reached the arrivals area, the driver had already left. He waited 60 minutes, but that simply isn’t enough when you’re dealing with elderly passengers and busy airports. Worse, when I tried to contact their support to get help or at least extend the waiting time, there was no way to reach anyone promptly. My attempts to call and message were ignored, and it was only after I finally reached someone by email that I received a generic, scripted response along the lines of “we always strive to improve.” Meanwhile, the driver stopped responding altogether and showed zero willingness to help, find a replacement, or even communicate further. No option to extend, no alternative solution—nothing. I ended up losing the entire amount paid (which was not cheap), and more importantly, my grandmother was left alone at the airport, still trying to figure out how to get to her destination as I write this. This level of disregard for basic customer care and common sense is absolutely unacceptable. I am extremely disappointed and will not be using this service again. I strongly recommend that others consider alternative providers, especially if you are traveling with vulnerable passengers who need a reliable pickup and some basic human consideration.”

“Unreliable. Our ride was canceled after a four hour flight delay leaving us stranded at the airport at night. There is an app to message the driver that no one responds too and it says not to worry they track flight delays and our driver still showed up at the airport at the incorrect time. Save yourself the hassle and just would book a more reliable form of transportation”

“Really disappointing. We arrived in Pisa airport at 11.30pm having ordered a taxi to meet us weeks before. There was no taxi to meet us. Just a text message on my phone which had been sent after we have left Dublin and we were in the plane. The message said the taxi was cancelled because of lack of drivers. We were completely stranded in the middle of the night . I will never book with this company again.”

“The driver was meant to be waiting at Athens airport with a name sign in arrivals hall "A" We booked the pick up for 9.00 pm to give us time to collect bags etc... Our plane landed on time, we were at the meting point arrivals hall "A" by 9.07pm , no sign of a driver with our name. There were not that many drivers waiting so easy to identify him, had he been there as planned. As the arrivals hall emptied and still no sign after 45 mins we took a regular taxi. I did not have access to internet on my phone until I got to the hotel. The driver has sent whatap message Sent as text 6/6 8:49pm Hello, I’m a driver to pick up you from the airport when you pass the queue and get your luggage get the exit number two and stand in the second side walk and when you are there, update me to start from the parking thank you. See you soon. This was no use to me having no phone access, he should have been there waiting as planned and paid for. He would have known the plane landed on time so why wait for a customer to call you. A disappointing start to our holiday and a waste of 67 euro and another 57 euro in a taxi. And an hour of our time waiting.”
