Another way to book your MiniCab!
It seems almost everyone has a mobile phone these days – however not everyone has a smartphone like an iPhone or Android compatible handset – we have great Apps for these – click here for details.
So with this in mind we have just added another way to book your MiniCab with Hornchurch MiniCabs – TextBooker! All texts are charged at network standard rate.
This is a great, quick and very easy way to book a MiniCab. You can use it straight ‘as it is’ without having to set-up shortcuts or use the website, you can order a MiniCab for right away or make a booking for within the next 24 hours.
If you use the website and create some shortcuts then it gets even quicker and easier to use – however it will work very happily just with a door number and postcode.

Spring 2012 upgrade time - new servers have been installed for greater capacity, improved speed & reliability – all the better to serve you well. Our bespoke offices feature an air-conditioned server room – our old servers served us well but did not have the capacity to accommodate our ever-increasing customer base.
With our 3 new servers in place operating with a new managed switch our networks are not only working better now but are ready to serve you for the next few years.
Part of our commitment to use only the best equipment to ensure you only receive the very best service at all times.
If you have an iPhone, iPad or even a iPod touch you can now take advantage of our free App which is available to download from the AppStore right now. Once downloaded you will be able to organise your minicab journeys instantly.
Get instant quotes before you book, really handy if you just want a price before you decide on your plans, book journeys, organise returns, charge to your debit or credit card and even track your vehicle live.
Also you can view your history, save favourite addresses and customise your minicab experience – there is no extra charge for using the App so why not give it a try.
Our new hand held booking terminal allows our doorman to book you a minicab directly from out offices in under a second. You will be given a printed ticket which identifies you to the driver and also maintains a fair queue on busy evenings.
Use the ticket to get a discount on your next minicab journey.
The second your car is booked the job is automatically sent to our despatch system which allocates the nearest car and directs it to the office for your collection – this all happens without any user intervention so the entire process is very fast – usually in under a second!
What’s IVR? Interactive Voice Recognition
All sounds mysterious but actually it’s a computer server that handles calls automatically and actually despatches vehicles depending on your selection.
When you have used us for more than 1 journey you will be presented with the choice to either select to have a car sent immediately to either of your last 2 recorded addresses – if you need to make a booking or speak to an operator just press nothing and hold – you will then be transferred to a booking agent.
Should you use the IVR system you can book and have a car despatched to you in under 30 seconds – this saves you hanging on waiting for an agent to become free to take your call.
Everyone hates waiting on the phone to be answered so if you need a car now from either of the recorded addresses IVR can save you lots of time.
We always enjoy talking with you but this system has been put in place to serve regular customers quickly during busy times.
The online WebBooker allows you to run instant quotes 24/7 via the website – just click on any of the Quote & Book links.
Simply enter a few details and you can get an instant quote – you don’t have to book so it’s very handy if you just want a price before you decide on your plans.
The WebBooker allows booking using a credit or debit card – very quick and easy to register and totally safe using encryption so that your details are passed to our computer servers scrambled to prevent capture or fraudulent activity.
If you continue from the first quote screen you have the option to add extra portions of your journey – more collections or deliveries depending on your requirements.
When you have completed your booking your job is automatically sent to our despatch system ready to be despatched as per your requirements.
