Review of BlaBlaCar


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Just don't use this service

Zero. Absolutely unusable. I had questions about the time and pick-up for my ride that were virtually impossible to manage by email. Simply being able to talk would have made it easier, but BBC cancelled my messages because I mentioned a phone number. I finally managed to book the ride. Three days before I was due to go, the person in question suddenly cancelled the ride, meaning I had to make alternative arrangements that were far more expensive because I hadn't booked earlier. This is a Mickey Mouse operation. On the basis of my experience, avoid at all cost.

Hi. As a reminder, we sent your driver's phone number by email and/or SMS when your booking was confirmed to finalise the last details of the ride with them. Before the booking is confirmed, you can message drivers before or after booking a seat as long as you’re logged in and ask the driver any questions you may have.

Absolutely superlative

I've used TransferWise now on three occasions. The website, procedure and transparency are impeccable, the fee unbeatable, and the customer service A1. I wish I'd thought of it when I had to make a big transfer last year and was "invisibly" charged a massive fee by the banks. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
