Passenger Guides & Tips

When fares are lower and how to avoid surge pricing

Almost everyone who uses taxis in the UK is familiar with the question of why the price of a journey in the app is sometimes higher than expected.

Where it’s better to hail a Black Cab and where an app is more cost-effective

In Britain, especially in its capital, there are two popular ways to use a taxi: hail a legendary Black Cab on the street or use an app such as Uber or Bolt.

Time-saving and toll-avoiding tips

Cars have long been considered the most convenient form of transport for travelling around Europe and the UK, among other places.

Is a child booster seat required, and how to request one?

Transporting children in a taxi is a popular choice for parents in the UK. This solution can be convenient for daily trips to school, transfers to the airport, or even for solving emergency unforeseen situations.

Can the fare be fixed in advance?

Taxi customers in the UK often want to know the cost of a ride in advance. Unlike situations where the price is formed by the meter during the ride, having a fixed rate allows you to avoid unpleasant surprises, especially when ordering during rush hour or going to the airport.

How to recover lost property?

Forgetting something in a taxi is a common occurrence. The phone slipped into the seat gap, the bag was left in the trunk, and sometimes the shopping bag was left on the floor.

So here’s the thing about Milton Keynes: it’s great for drivers… not so great if you’re on foot. Everything’s spaced out, there are more roundabouts than anyone really needs, and let’s be honest — when it’s cold or you’ve just done a full IKEA run, walking isn’t the vibe. That’s where taxis come in.

I’ve used a bunch of cab services in MK over the years — some brilliant, some that made me swear I’d never skip pre-booking again. So if you’re looking for a ride you can actually count on, here’s the lowdown from someone who’s been there (sometimes slightly tipsy, sometimes very much late).

🚖 The Breakdown

Eezy Taxis – My First Call, Every Time

Seriously, these folks just get it right. They’re quick, the app works (which is more than I can say for others), and they’ve saved me from the rain more times than I can count. Whether I’m heading to the station or crawling home from a night out — Eezy’s my go-to.

Great for:
✔️ Everyday rides
✔️ When you need someone fast
✔️ Booking ahead without stress

Ace Cars – Easygoing and Reliable

These guys are proper chill. I’ve used them for everything from quick Lidl trips to getting my mum to a hospital appointment. Friendly drivers, clean cars, no weird detours — exactly what you want.

Great for:
✔️ Local errands
✔️ Nights out
✔️ When you just want to get there

Speedline – When Plan A Doesn’t Pick Up

Let’s be real: sometimes the other firms are all busy. That’s when Speedline steps in. They’ve bailed me out on more than one “oops-I-forgot-to-book” occasion. Always worth having their number saved.

Great for:
✔️ Weekends
✔️ Last-minute calls
✔️ Suburban pickups

Uber – Good… If You Can Get One

Yeah, Uber’s an option here — and it’s great when it actually works. But it’s kind of a gamble. Sometimes it’s five minutes away, other times it’s just… not. That said, the app is convenient and cash-free is nice.

Great for:
✔️ App lovers
✔️ Spontaneous plans
✔️ Short city hops

MK Executive Cars – For When You Want to Arrive in Style

Going to Heathrow? Fancy dinner? Meeting the in-laws? This one’s for when you want a bit of class. The cars are spotless, drivers wear suits, and the whole thing just feels smooth. Bit more expensive — but sometimes, worth it.

Great for:
✔️ Airport runs
✔️ Business meetings
✔️ Special occasions

🚖 Final Thoughts

🔹 For everyday stuff: Eezy or Ace Cars have you covered
🔹 Need a backup? Speedline is your plan B
🔹 Prefer booking with an app? Uber… if it’s actually available
🔹 Feeling fancy? Executive Cars will sort you out

MK might be built for drivers, but we’ve all had those days where you just need someone else to take the wheel. Save a couple of these numbers now, and trust me — future you will be grateful.
