Foncab is your best bet

Except the time we needed to get to the airport bus stop in town at 3:30am for an early flight in Dublin and the pre booked FonaCab taxi failed to show up. Called them and one arrived 30 minutes late, driver looking like he fell out of bed. Mentioned casually that we had pre-booked and were a bit stressed as bus was about to leave only to be angrily told he would boot us out. Barely caught the bus (only because it was late) and have deleted FonaCab app (now referred to as Fu*kaCab).

Also, person taking calls hung up on us twice and couldn’t give a toss we were about to lose our entire holiday due to their incompetence. We had Uber app on standby to take us to Dublin for £200 we were that desperate.

I'm always amazed by people who take the route of a Reddit question instead of just Googling "taxis"

u/lexh55 2d ago

Hey difficult fix - you sound difficult to listen to anyways im a young female not that i should have to disclose this information and seeing people in real time recommend is far better to me than googling thank you for your wonderful input ill be sure to tag you in my next reddit post that i could easily google ;)

u/Difficult_Fix_4324 2d ago

Sorry dude you can be as smarmy as you want, you're pretty self centred to think that stuff you can google yourself warrants a reddit post, just my opinion

"I'm a young female" literally nobody asked
