23.01.2022 From 'The Sunday Mail', letters to the editor, 24/12/17 Miranda C. 'Uber fare is just not fair' "At 6:15pm on a recent Friday, I caught an Uber for a 19km trip and was quoted about $60 by the driver. At midnight, for the same trip home with a 'normal' taxi, I expected the fare ride to be more expensive. When I got home and checked the receipts, the taxi ride was $53.80 and the Uber trip was $160.60. I thought it was an error, so I called, left a message of complaint, and wa...s reimbursed $40 but this made the fare $120. Then I went to the Uber office and got told that in a 'high demand' period they can charge what they like. I was unaware of this. Surely the driver should have told me this? I have deleted the Uber app from my phone and will stay with regular taxis. Be very careful if you decide to ride with Uber" I guess, the moral of the story is: If you stick with regular Taxis and Hire Vehicles (Chauffer driven), you are protected by a regulated system that ensures all drivers and vehicles are accredited, inspected and correctly licensed, with the added threat of being pulled over at any time for a 'spot inspection' by the licensing authority. Insurances are mandated, as is a FULL police and DCS clearance, before you are allowed to 'ply for hire'. Uber, on the opposite end of the scale, needs a simple roadworthy test, and a simple police check, and away they go. No threat of a spot check, no regulation on fares or what they behave like. Sure, there are idiots and crims in the taxi/hire car system, but get their ID (on mandatory display inside and outside of the vehicle) and report their actions- unclean vehicle/overcharging/un-safe driving. The industry as a whole WANTS the cowboys removed, they bring all driver's reputations down. And Uber? well, I just wouldn't. It's meant to be 'ride share', where someone travelling 'shares' the ride and the expenses- in reality, they run as unlicensed taxis, over charging, and paying no tax, whilst probably still getting 'unemployment' payments too. Is that really what we want the industry to turn into? your choice....
12.01.2022 Are you a Fly-in/Fly-out (FIFO) worker who regularly comes and goes to the airport, but just can't find anyone reliable enough or reasonable enough for the price? We've got over 20 FIFO's who regularly use us for either all of their trips, or just the odd trip when their family cannot transport them. Message us for a no-obligation price, you never know, we could save you $$$ and always be there when you expect us as well. Simple, affordable, reliable.

10.01.2022 Well New Year's Eve is just about here.... we've had plenty of bookings and were pretty much booked out, but reorganising and tweaking everything has left a few spots here and there for anyone who wants to book and guarantee you'll have a car pick you up, and take you home again. Use the 'book now' button on this fb page, text our booking number (0448 002 181) or private message me to see if we can book you in when you want! otherwise, we'll see you all in the new year!
