Green Tomato cars from Heathrow?

Any one used them? Any feedback? They are listed on Heathrowairport.com site.

Also says all cars have free wifi included.

We used this company and it was fine. The transfer was actually booked by the agency through which we rented an apartment (Ivy Lettings) but based on that experience I would use them again. The in car WiFi was nice.

P.S. Does your screen name mean that you are in San Antonio?

I haven't heard of them but there are lots of car services/mini cabs. What are they charging?

Compare them to justairports.com to see if their rates are reasonable .

They are a fast growing, city wide private hire company, set to rival Addison Lee, who have dominated the market for way too long. All the cars are Toyota Prius, (hence the 'green' bit). Perfectly respectable, mainstream company.

Addison Lee does seem to be run by a bit of a Ryanair CEO type.

Thanks for the replies - I just booked yesterday with exclusive airports. I hadn't had any responses to my question about green tomato and didn't find any reports so decided not to go with them this time.

Yes Seamus, I am in San Antonio. And I just got recalled to work from furlough (I'm a Dod civilian) but am still getting on the plane Wednesday morning.

Exclusive Airports is just fine, have used them and been pleased.

Bon voyage, and when you return drop a line to jphinc@grandecom dot net and we will get you connected to other SA Fodorites.

Safe travels!
