CAB Business Solutions

The following testimonial is from the teenager who was highlighted in the Bournemouth Echo earlier in the year under the headline ‘Teenager dumped at midnight by taxi’.

This enhances the value from the customer perspective.

After experiencing first hand an extremely potentially dangerous situation by one the largest cab companies in the county towards my sixteen-year-old daughter. We felt that being left on a street corner 1.5 miles from our home at midnight on a cold February night on her own after booking a taxi cab would in today’s society seem impossible! Our subsequent article in the local press and answers given to us by the company concerned left us in no doubt that this would happen again to someone else’s son or daughter.

In these worrying times, we as parents need to be sure that our sons and daughters will get home safely after getting into a taxi. Reading press articles our own experience is becoming more frequent, so we sought a solution that would give us guarantees and our daughter some independence.

The Taxisafe Contract which enables us as parents to have complete piece of mind and confidence that our daughter should she need a cab from anywhere to home will be a journey that will be completed safely, gives us those assurances. The free phone telephone number that gets priority at the despatch office and the password protection effectively guarantees the journey within the taxi cab.

We can now rest assured that she will be returned home at what ever the time or place, and my daughter has the independence as a young adult that she requires.

We can recommend this service to all parents with teenage children, but especially to those with children in further education who may well be away from home for the first time. We wish the anguish and experience that we had never to be repeated or felt by any other parents over their children’s trip out.

This scheme also protects the taxi driver in the knowledge that the fare will be paid and that they have a genuine passenger which is also very important.

Poole based Taxisafe customer and parent

" Taxisafe " what a great idea, only the other week my daughter went off to work in Bournemouth, totally forgetting that I was taking her sister to Weymouth. On finishing work she rang to see where I was. Unable to collect her, unable to contact Grandparents ( they're not used to modern technology yet! ) and In Weymouth what could I do, she had no moneyand had run out of credit on her mobile, ( nothing unusual there! ) the only option was to ring my local Taxi company  who were very helpful who took a credit card over the phone, (unfortuantely there is a minimum £10.00 charge, ) and arranged for her to be collected.
Much better for my peace of mind, that I had taken out a "Taxisafe" account with my local Taxi Company and my daughter had a freephone number to ring.
