Second disappointment with Clive's transport

[Negil4Ever]

Just wanted to post some quick feedback about Clive's transport service. This was the second time that we used them - the first was OK, someone was at the airport waiting to pick us up and delivered us to Negril for $70 plus tip (Dec 2010). I had scheduled a return trip and they didn't show up, which meant that had we had to hire a local taxi, no big deal. This December I scheduled and confirmed a pick-up, waited about 15-20 minutes and finally had to hire someone else at the airport. Clive's replied a few days later with an email apology that their driver was helping someone else. Again, not really the end of the world but I won't be using their services any longer because I value reliability. It's very frustrating to sit outside of Sangster and wait in the crowd of drivers/porters , watching your luggage etc without a ride... anyone know of a better company for next time?

Same here. Probably have used Clive's at least 15-18 times in the last 10 years. Never have had a problem. I also confirm before my return pick up. Sorry about your bad experience.

Same here and never had a problem in ten years time with Clives.
I confirm the day before my pickup by calling Clives and then also do the same for the return.
Never had a problem and his prices are about the cheapest. Sorry you had such bad luck.

Do you let the airport staff (ie. greeter who asks "which hotel?" or the Red Caps) know you are meeting up with Clives? That's what I do, and they always ALWAYS have made sure I connected with someone from Clives. Deshawn (sp) from Clives is usually at the airport, making sure everyone is taken care of and gets into their vehicle. Their loading point is near the phone booth at the outside edge of the pickup area.

Of course this doesn't help with your missing pickup from Negril. That would be more stressful, IMO. I always confirm with them my pickup from Negril a day or two ahead of time. I'm not so concerned on arrival as I know it will work out.

Alfred's $50 per airport trip.
That's a competitive price.

This year his quote for picking us up in Feb in $60 ( due to gas prices)
