Agreed Itineraries & Prices

Please make sure you check all your details before making a payment for your booking.


Extra Charges

Parking costs, ferry fares, tolls, meals, refreshments, etc. are not included in any hire quotation unless specifically stated otherwise. It’s the responsibility of our clients to meet these costs incurred, unless agreed otherwise in writing.

Customer Initiated Departure Delays

For Example, if our clients decide to keep our vehicle/driver waiting to settle a grievance or dispute with their Airline or Rail Company over lost luggage, this additional waiting time will be charged.

If the stop incorporates extra mileage this will also be charged in addition directly to our client at a rate per mile specific to the vehicle used. The scheduled Stops section in our quotations is clearly visible. Please make us aware of any intended stops over the course of your journey from the outset of your enquiry to save disappointment on the day.


Invoices

Only applicable to account customers. The credit terms we offer to account customers are non negotiable. If we do not receive payment within the agreed timescale, no further transfers will be undertaken until payment is received as cleared funds. No exception will be made to this policy.


Vehicles Supplied

We reserve the right to change any vehicle booked provided the standard of vehicle is closely similar or of a better class. We reserve the right to sub contract bookings out to other reputable companies, when circumstances dictate, provided they can supply a closely similar type of vehicle or a vehicle of a better class.


Passenger Behavior

We reserve the right to refuse travel, or expel passengers from our vehicles, if our driver considers a passenger or passengers to be behaving in an antisocial, aggressive, threatening or verbally abusive manner. Both verbal and physical abuse will be reported to the authorities and prosecution will be sought to the maximum extent of the law.


Luggage / Baggage Requirements

Clients are deemed responsible for correctly informing us about the amount and weight of luggage that will be transported with them. We have the right to refuse transport in the event that your luggage is in excess of initially agreed baggage items. We will not intentionally overload any vehicle for the safety of our passengers, drivers and other road users. We reserve the right to refuse transport of items of luggage that we consider to be of a damaging or noxious nature, so if your not sure, please ask us first.


Estimated Traveling Time

Traveling time is estimated by us as accurately as possible and is of an approximate nature, which can be affected by traffic conditions on any given day.


Traffic Delays

We will not be held liable for delays out with our control causes by third parties contracted on your behalf or directly by yourself.

Flight/Train Delays

In the event that our clients flight, train or sailing is delayed we will wait for up to 1 hour at no additional cost. Waiting time in excess of 60 minutes will be charged at £0.50 (50 pence) per minute. If a flight or a train is over two hours late, the contract between us and the clients will be terminated. No refunds will be offered or given.

No Show Bookings

When we dispatch a vehicle and a driver to Airports, Railway Stations & Ferry Terminals, etc to transfer clients, we are effectively honoring our part of the contract between us and the client (The Booking). If for any reason our clients have missed their flight connection, train, or sailing, etc, or simply did not arrive at the meeting location, we will endeavor to make enquiries to ascertain whether they were onboard the arriving flight, train or ferry.

Failing this, we will send out a call over the tannoy (public address system), if available, in a bid to make contact. If we still have not made contact with our clients, we will consider ourselves to have honoured the contract between the client and us to the best of our ability and consider the booking cancelled. No refund will be offered or given.

It’s very important to make sure clients have given us the correct mobile contact number and that, when possible, this phone will be switched on to enable us to contact clients, if circumstances dictate.
