Taxi from ED to Gatwick


Recommended Posts

Used Mason & Green for the first time in June for a Gatwick Airport drop off and pick up thanks to recommendations on this thread.


Internet booking and subsequent email confirmation was easy. Early morning pick up (330am) driver turned up 15 minutes early. Child seats are provided free of charge and were already fitted.


Cars were clean and modern and drivers were polite and knowledgeable. The driver on the return leg even put some nursery rhymes on for our toddler who was getting grouchy after too long sitting down.


I'll def be using them again.

I'm currently at Heathrow (not Gatwick, but there doesn't seem to be a suitable thread...) with my wife and 20 month old son. We're waiting for Airport Direct. This is worrying as AD were 40 minutes late picking us up on the way here last week, and, what's far worse, they lied to us several times about the driver's location.

We are really disappointed as we have been using this company for many years without incident. In January however they cancelled one of the two cars we ordered, assuming it was a duplicate booking, and without bothering to check! I wonder if AD are under new management. Certainly their previous high standards have slipped badly.

Thanks to those people who have made recommendations on this thread. Needless to say, we shall not be using Airport Direct again!

I hate to say it (as its not a local business) but Uber works very well getting to and from all London airports now. No pre booking but each time I land there's been one at pick up area in under 5 mins. Yesterday's fare from SE22 to Heathrow T5 was just 42 quid...and it was a new hybrid limo!

    • I'm a patient. Over the past 9 years I have had to have more "engagement" with the Practice and believe things have significantly deteriorated.  Have you attempted to get an appointment with them?  They send patients to the Tessa Jowell Centre as "an overspill", why is is? Why can they not see patients at the practice? Why are patients required to submit photo's so they can be diagnosed. I thought the purpose of GP's was to SEE their patients, diagnose, treat and refer them if and as required to hospital. Or am I incorrect??   The practice does has some excellent staff, but the reviews show the constraints they obviously have to operate under.  The agenda they have prepared has some very interesting and topical items that are up for discussion, so a prime opportunity to ask them some searching and difficult questions they'd probably rather not be asked.  Time for some scrutiny to be applied. The practice is supposed to provide a broad range of medical services for its patients, personally I do not feel this has been or is the case. Have a read of the practices online reviews, to say the least, they make painful reading.  As an example. years ago, the doctor who had a surgery further up Forest Hill Road till he retired and FHRGP took over a lot of the patients from there, the doctor offered a walk in morning and afternoon surgery and did home visits in the evening. Why can FHRGP not operate something similar?  They have a huge building, from what I have seen, the space is inadequately used with vast amounts sitting empty, such a waste. Other local practices, I'm sure would love to be located in such a vast building.  I'd like to see much more patient involvement in how the practice operates and delivers its services to us the patients.    
    • Are you on the PPG?  They appear to want others to engage but they also acknowledge that such a group will never be fully representative of users  There is lots on line, but it was interesting to find the last inspection report of the CQC who quote a survey done my the PPG.  https://www.cqc.org.uk/location/1-544424476/inspection-summary
