Smooth and Efficient 16-Seater Minibus Airport Transport Experience I recently utilized the 16-seater minibus transport service to and from Heathrow Airport, and my experience was nothing short of excellent. From the moment I booked the service to the final drop-off, the entire journey was smooth and hassle-free. The minibus arrived promptly at the designated location, and the driver was not only punctual but also courteous and professional. The spacious 16-seater minibus provided ample room for my group and our luggage, ensuring a comfortable and relaxed journey. The journey to Heathrow Airport was efficient, with the driver navigating through traffic with expertise. The ve

Title: A Remarkable Journey with the National Minibus Service I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the National Minibus Service, and it was nothing short of exceptional. My journey was aboard an 8-seater bus, and I must say it was a delightful and comfortable ride from start to finish. First and foremost, the cost price was incredibly reasonable, offering excellent value for money. The affordability of the service was a pleasant surprise, especially considering the high level of comfort and service provided. The National Minibus Service proves that quality transportation doesn't have to come with a hefty price tag. One standout aspect of the journey was the driver. Our driver was not only skilled and experienced but also displayed a genuine commitment to ensuring the passengers had a pleasant experience. The driver was friendly, courteous, and went above and beyond to make the journey enjoyable for everyone on board. Safety was clearly a priority, and the professionalism of the driver added an extra layer of confidence to the overall travel experience.

Morning, we had a fantastic time at carfest yesterday. Chris was a true ambassador for your company. Taxi pickup wasn't sign posted and we popped out the festival on the road. Chris was very professional & quick at locating & collecting us. Thank you all for your quality services.

Booked to take family of 9 to Gatwick and collect on return from holiday. Efficient service and drivers were punctual and helpful. By far the best price of several quotes obtained. Would definitely recommend Only one small quibble - has to contact main office to get drivers information and contact details.

Thank you for the invoice. It should have already been paid before travelling. The only thing to feedback was when we arrived we didn’t have the vehicles that we had agreed on. Although we have one minibus which was ideal, I thought we had agreed on a coach, so everyone would be arriving at the Quay at the same time. In general though, the service was good and we got there, just a little delayed. Thank you, Jassi

To whom it may concern, Thank you for your response. You have not addressed the main issues raised; 1. I am claiming back the extra expenses incurred (£338) as a direct result of the delay 2. I am claiming back at least 20% reduction on the fare charged (£675) for the inconvenience caused Please note that this is my last direct communication with you otherwise I am going to proceed to lodge a complaint with the regulator and to seek legal opinion on the matter.

Hi Fari We are very sorry to hear about your experience. I have spoken to the driver, please see the report given by him where I believe he has done everything he could to ensure everyone gets back safely. Firstly due to unforeseen circumstances the driver broken down with no fault of him and ourself. Vehicles break down, it wasn’t done by purpose at all. The vehicle got their with no issues, the vehicle has MOT and is roadworthy to carry passengers as otherwise it would not be on the road. The vehicle drove from Manchester to Southampton. 1) We arranged another driver for you immediately. 2) We also tried uber as requested but there was no drivers locally, and hes got proof of this on the phone. He also tried local taxi firms but no body was available to come out. 3) The AA (recovery service) tried utmost best to resolve the issue, the driver didn’t think at one point to put anyones life at risk, he arranged an emergency vehicle immediately to pick you up as soon as his vehicle broke down. 4) The group was in a layby, the safest place they can be, not on the motorway, the passengers could have all got out the vehicle and rested outside but chose not too 5) As soon as the replacement vehicle arrived the driver at the nearest service station at not once he told use to hurry up, he said take your time and he also stopped at other services give you the driver adequate rest time in between the journey, 6) driver co operated with the group from start to finish 7) The driver tried to help and ease the situation as quick as possible, 8) the driver went to 2 places as suppose to 1 in Manchester, and also waited 1 hour for you and didn’t complain at all. We usually charge atleast an extra £200 for extra drops and waiting time 9) The driver lost out on hundreds of pound arranging emergency cover at issues with his vehicle, but he has not complained to you or the group about any expenses for this. We therefore would like to apologise for the inconvenience you feel you may had, but we did everything we could in our hands to ensure the service was fulfilled, which it was. We did not leave you stranded or say we are unable to do it. Please therefore appreciate that we got them home safely and we will ensure next time you book we will give you a 10% discount on your booking. Regards

The experience of hiring the minibus for our recent trip could only be described as brilliant. The transport to Norwich (Saturday 22nd March) was fine, the driver was very friendly, would like to add the return trip as the memory and one we appreciate. When the driver arrived with executive bus (different transport from the day before), The driver said that this was the replacement. We were delighted and the bus was amazing, there was not even scratch on the seats. For all of the passengers, there was free WIFI, so overall amazing experience and loved the additional extras service at no extra cost!
