点评:A truly unacceptable experience
We were completely let down by this taxi company just 2 hours before our scheduled pickup. We had booked and budgeted for a journey costing £300, only to be left scrambling at the last minute and forced to pay £700 to arrange alternative transport.
The financial impact didn’t stop there. Because of the disruption, we then had to pay a further £400 to change our flights.
What made this even more stressful was the circumstances we were travelling in. I am pregnant and travelling with a 1-year-old, so being left without our arranged transport at such short notice caused an enormous amount of unnecessary stress, panic and anxiety. What should have been the start of our journey turned into an incredibly upsetting and exhausting day.
We trusted this company to provide a service that we had booked and paid for, and they failed us at the worst possible time. The additional £800 in costs, on top of the stress and disruption caused, is simply unacceptable.
I would strongly urge anyone considering using this company to think twice. If you make a booking, you should be able to rely on the company to honour it — especially when families are travelling and flights are at stake.
We deserve an explanation and, frankly, I believe we are owed compensation for the significant additional costs and distress their failure caused.
翻译:一次绝对不可接受的经历
就在约定接机时间前两小时,这家出租车公司彻底让我们失望了。我们事先预估并预留了300英镑作为出行费用,结果在最后时刻措手不及,不得不支付700英镑来安排其他交通工具。
经济上的损失还不止于此。由于行程受阻,我们又不得不额外支付400英镑来更改机票。
更令人焦虑的是我们当时的出行情况。我怀孕了,还要带着一个1岁的孩子旅行。就在出发前很短的时间内,我们预定的交通工具却突然无法使用,这给我们带来了极大的不必要的压力、恐慌与焦虑。本应是旅程的开端,却变成了一个极其令人心烦意乱且疲惫不堪的一天。
我们信任这家公司,相信他们会提供我们已预订并付费的服务,然而他们却在最糟糕的时刻让我们失望了。除了带来这些压力与麻烦之外,我们还不得不额外支出800英镑。这绝对是不可接受的。
我强烈建议任何考虑选择这家公司的人三思而后行。如果您进行了预订,就应该能够信赖该公司会履行承诺——尤其是当全家出游且航班至关重要时。
我们理应得到一个解释;坦率地说,我认为由于他们的失误给我们带来了巨大的额外开支与精神痛苦,我们理应获得赔偿。
