Help center
How can we help?
Can't find what you need here? Contact us directly and we'll get back to you.
How can the price be fixed if traffic varies?+
We quote a fixed fare based on your route and vehicle class before you book, so it's agreed upfront and won't change if traffic is heavier than expected or your driver takes a different road.
Can I change or cancel my booking?+
Yes -- cancellations are free up to 48 hours before your pickup time, with a full refund. See our
Cancellation Policy for details.
Do you track flight delays for airport pickups?+
Yes, add your flight number at booking and we track it automatically -- your driver adjusts to your actual landing time, with free waiting time built in.
What vehicle options do you offer?+
Standard, Executive, 6-Seater Estate/MPV, 8-Seater Minibus, SUV and Luxury, plus a Wheelchair Accessible vehicle on request.
How do I pay, and is it secure?+
Payments are handled securely by Stripe. Hail A Taxi never sees or stores your card details.
What areas do you cover?+
Our address search covers the full UK -- any postcode or address, not just major airports.
Are your drivers licensed and vetted?+
Yes, every driver holds a valid private hire licence and goes through our standard vetting checks before they can accept bookings.
Can I book on behalf of someone else?+
Yes -- just enter the passenger's name and contact details at booking so your driver and any flight-tracking updates go to the right person.
What happens if my driver is late?+
Our availability system prevents double-booking, so this is rare. If it ever happens, contact us and we'll sort it out straight away.
Do you offer wheelchair accessible vehicles?+
Yes, select Wheelchair Accessible as your vehicle class when booking and we will match you with a suitable vehicle and driver.
