“Terrible, there are no words to describe it, it could have been a nightmare. After full payment in advance of 125 euros, and sending the driver's details. At 22:40 they send a message that the taxi booked for 04:00 in the morning is canceled and they apologize...they apologize and whhhoh what fun. If we hadn't seen the message sent 5.5 hours before collection? What a disrespect to customers”

“Free Cancellation isn't free. They charge a huge fee for cancellation even it is outside the 24 hours window. I don't mind if they state that clearly before I submit the payment, but terms and condition is hiding at another the link, and on the booking page is only showing "free cancellation"”

“Beware! I did not get picked up by my driver in Cairo. I would not recommend this service at all. I called, and spoke to my driver Ahmed, when I was going through customs at Cairo airport, telling him I had landed. He said he thought I would be about 30 minutes. I was quicker than that so when he wasn’t there I thought he was thinking I was delayed in customs. I called him about 5 times but his phone was turned off. I walked up and down looking for my name for about 45 minutes, constantly fending off taxi drivers who wanted my fare. After almost an hour of waiting and texts and calls to Ahmed, then finally telling him I would be leaving. I had no response. As a 70 year old (slightly less adventurous traveler these days) arriving on Cairo at night on my own I had hoped for some kind of security arriving in such a big city for the first time. I was very upset. Do not recommend. I also tried to use the refund service for Welcome Pickups but their automated service for cumbersome for me just trying to use wifi in hotels. And because I’d expected to be picked up I hadn’t read their info on how to get reimbursed. Lost my money. Didn’t get picked up. Had to pay another fare. Updated review. I did contact Welcome Pick Ups. They were very responsive, gave me a refund, offered some additional compensation ( if I gave them my banking details, I wasn't going do that) and a decent voucher for further use. I was pleased with their response but not sure I would consider using them again.”

“We prepaid one week ago our transfer from the hotel to the Heathrow airport. 2 hours before our departure they cancelled the ride cause of no available drivers! We had to find a last minute cab and to catch our flight fully stressed !!! We were lucky we had extra money for the cab ( we wait for our money back the next 7 days …) Don’t trust them !!!”

“We had a poor experience in Mexico City. Booked in advance, and confirmation mail said to connect via mail/phone on pick up point. Nothing was updated, and even after arrival, the app showed driver not assigned. It was impossible to get in touch with this company~mails do not get response, chats are not live and are having pre configured answers and toll number does not go through. Also realised they were 6x expensive than an uber and we finally got an uber with ease. Even airport taxis seem more convenient. I will avoid Welcome Pickups in future. Infact trying to figure how to get a refund for something that was not account me.”

“AVOID this company at ALL COSTS! AVOID this company at ALL COSTS. They cannot be trusted. I booked a minivan to take us from central London to Heathrow at 5.30am on Friday 16th December. I paid £145 for the service. At 4.30am on the 16th, I received a call from the driver telling me he was outside. I told him we’d be down in 20 mins. When we went downstairs he wasn’t there. I called him again and I found out he was at a completely different address about a five minute drive from us. When he arrived he was driving a Mercedes sedan. Not a minivan like I ordered and paid for. On further investigation, not only was the address AND his type of vehicle wrong, but also the name on the booking. He realised he wasn’t actually for me (despite having my contact number) and headed back to collect his actual passenger, who must have wondered where he was. I tried calling the number of the driver I had been emailed with the booking confirmation, but he never answered. He responded with a “?” text. I text him back telling him I’d been given his name and number as our driver, but he never replied. At 4.55am another car stopped. He’d been given a DIFFERENT address down the road from our house, but he spotted us on the street (in -3 degrees) with suitcases and wondered if we were his pick-up. He had my name and phone number, but wasn’t driving a minivan either. Rather a Kia hatchback. We had booked a minivan, because we had 5 suitcases and two carry on. Somehow the driver managed to get two suitcases in the front seat and one in the boot. The other two suitcases and carry-on bags had to be put in the back seat on our laps. The driver told us when he accepted the job from Welcome he was never asked if he drove a minivan. He said that Welcome Pick-ups are terrible to deal with and the bookings are always wrong. We finally got to Heathrow, but it was an hours drive – by which time we were in agony from having heavy suitcases on our laps. I wrote to Welcome to find out what had happened. Remarkably, for a car service company, they offer NO OUT OF OFFICE HOURS phone support. I messaged them and they said they would get back to me within 24 hours. I still haven’t heard from them, despite chasing them twice. I would avoid this company at ALL COSTS. They are swindlers who farm out jobs to other car companies, but take no responsibility if anything goes wrong. I have asked for my money back due to the poor service, the fact we didn’t get the correct vehicle and the stress of having to deal with a ridiculous situation. I have yet to hear ANYTHING from the company. Definitely do not use this company.”
