    Hi,
    I have just booked a party bus for a hen group.
    I got the best price from a particular company but it just seemed a little shady. I wasn't even asked for my phone number when booking...which I have since emailed to them. They also wanted the cash deposited in their bank account, which to me was a little odd. I did it anyway as I felt under pressure to book a party bus as I have left it a little late!
    Their website is [link removed] but then their email is a little different as [link removed] (the bus and the party are the other way around).
    Please someone tell me they have used this company with success in the past! This company is affiliated with loads of the major bars and clubs in London, according to their website anyway. I am panicking a little so if you can reassure me I'd greatly appreciate it!
    Thanks,
    Matron of Honour-to-be!

    I've just done a search and I can't actually find anything about this company apart from their website.. tried searching for reviews but no luck. Seems a bit fishy to me that the only "reviews" are the ones on their website which are very vague and could have been written by anyone!

    Might it be worth searching the clubs to see if they are legit clubs and whether they know anything about the company?

    But then saying that there are no negative reviews that come up on G00gl3 either telling you to beware of them! Fingers crossed they are a legit company and you can find someone who has also used them before x

    Hmmm, don't think I would have booked them as they seem a bit dodgy. Especially the reviews - one from a bride/moh saying they will book again but why would you if you were a bride?? Hope it works out for you!! x

    Hope it works out for you , it does seem odd to ask for all cash to bank account in advance like that , a lot of bus companies I know and have used do cash on the day and some cash on day and a deposit to bank account when booking, its bit cheeky asking for all of it up front with no invoice . Maybe the email they wanted they couldn't have or something.. With regards to what Owl said, a bride or MOH saying yes would use them again I think is quite normal thing to say , buses are used for so many events, that if I was a bride and had used them I wouldn't think twice about saying yes would use them again , Hope it turns out good for you all x
