Absolutely fantastic service under the new management! Booked a Gatwick airport transfer at 4am and the driver was already waiting. Immaculate car, very professional. Best taxi company in Haywards Heath by far.
Used Haywards Heath Taxis for the first time yesterday. Called up, taxi arrived in 10 minutes. Driver was polite, car was spotless. Very reasonable price too. Won't use anyone else now!
Regular customer and the service just keeps getting better. The new management has really raised the bar. Always on time, always friendly, and their online booking is so easy to use. Five stars every time.
Needed a wheelchair accessible vehicle for my dad's hospital appointment. They were so helpful on the phone and the driver was incredibly patient and caring. Can't recommend them highly enough.
We use these for our corporate accounts and the service is consistently excellent. Drivers are always smartly dressed, on time, and professional. The monthly invoicing makes life easy. Top class operation.
Booked an 8-seater for a birthday night out in Brighton. Driver was brilliant — waited for us and got us all home safely. Everyone commented on how good the service was. Thank you!
