After my First Experience of Eureka Taxis to-day , I only ever want to use Eureka Taxis. I wish they were everywhere. They answered the phone with a warm friendly tone. The person knew where I was – I gave them the closest landmark as I didn’t know the physical address. Mark was the driver. He was a local – could have chatted with him for ages – we talked about 1980’s Music. He even apologised for the traffic lights turning red! Car was spotless and spacious inside. Really comfortable trip. And when we reached my destination – Ballarat Station – he took my large backpack out of the boot and handed it to me without me even asking. Eureka Taxis is a first class service. Like the name suggests – it is like finding Gold. Thank you.

I called Eureka Taxi on a Sunday (early)morning after a breakdown on my motorcycle, a fair distance from home.They were there as promised and got me home no problem at all fair price.Far better option than calling the wife at that time of the day!

Ebony from Eureka Taxis ( Ballarat ) was extremely helpful with the trip.As it turned out Ebony was a little late with picking us up as a consequence Ebony made up for this by not charging us for our trip with, we were extremely grateful for not only Ebony’s ownership of the matter but to make up for it in the manner that she did was outstanding.Ebony, was extremely caring, much appreciated.We have caught a taxi 5 times now with Ebony & I cannot think of a driver I would want to book a taxi with other than Ebony.In this day and age Ebony is an extreme rarity.We hope that Eureka Taxi service realises how valuable an employee we see Ebony as customer.RegardsPaul Hamilton & Jay McMasters

Excellent service very efficient,clean taxi.Very polite driver.

Jamie Love

Sadly over charged after confirming price upon booking a taxi. Both collections from each location were 30 minutes past confirmed booking times however all sorted by a very understanding operations manager who took ownership of performance and applied a discount.

Response from the owner: Hi Jamie,Thanks for the chat on the phone right now. I apologize for your frustration. I will be addressing it internally with my staff to ensure that this does not happen again. As mentioned on the phone the wrong tariff was used by my staff when quoting / making your booking. You asked for 6 people which is a maxi tariff and the price that was quoted from my staff was for 4 passengers which is a totally different tariff. In relation to being late i can only apologise and hope that next time is a better experience. If you would like to reach out to us any further please send us an email using admin@etwv.com.au Thanks M.B
