Central Taxi Ltd

Taxi driver asked us where were from. As soon as we said Australia, he diverted south and made up a lie about the motorway being closed, little did he know I'm from NZ & I'd already read only 1 lane was closed & I knew the way. He said nothing could be done and i couldn't provethe motorway was not closed. He said nothing could be done about it and charged us an extra near $40 than what he said it would cost. His driving was scary, almost drove under a truck, drove 100km in a 50km area. Only slowed when his gps told him a speed camera was near. Never ever go with this company

Driver turned off the meter half way to destination then charged me. (A tourist). Twice the normal fare. Nest time take uber.

This company does not deserve a rating at all. I made a account just so I can make a negative review. But what happened was I was getting a Uber from mt smart stadium to papakura ranging from $38-$52 and this taxi asked where I was going etc. said I’ll offer you a 20% discount so the ride will be $40-$45. He was begging me to cancel my Uber ride so I called my Uber drive how much the cost will be and she was being really honest and I apologised was practically taking the long way there I also got ripped I had to pay $70. He was scared that he overcharged me. This effected me so badly because it was Easter weekend so no one was getting paid until a week later as I only work casual what gives them the authority to waste our funds like that. After I got out of the car he was smirking that I got scammed. Please drive with Uber as they have a fixed price unlike central taxis they scam u they’re not worth your dollar.

$31 to go from Spark Arena to 3/4 way up Queen Street. Uber on the way down was $12!!!
What a rip!!

Very Poor service not only did the driver tell us it would be $25.00 from the spark arena to sky- tower then over charge me by 13.00 he was also a very dangerous drive not looking at the road and had to slam his breaks on before hitting a car that had stopped at ques of traffic causing whiplash for me and my fellow passenger when i got out of the cab i saw he had no cab number on the vehicle making it impossible to report who he was to the company. Would never travel with this company again and never recommend if you value your life.
