Rellable Car & Driver Available


Recommended Posts

I've used this car & driver (Alex) 4 times. He shows up on time with a clean rellable Honda. Alex speaks excellent english. He charges 1500 including tolls. No problem stopping for beers, toilet, etc.  Email:  alex_qme@hotmail.com

 

If you use his service, when you clear customs turn left and walk 30 meters toward a crowd of people. Alex will be on the right side with a sign with your name on it.

I used Alex again on my latest trip and NO problems. I was picked up from the Majestic Suites and headed to the airport to pick up Big Kevin, the ringmaster of two FLB parties. Alex is available 24/7.

I tried one once in BKK and wasn't happy. He does have a lot of lookers available. The price is quite high as well.

Going on BIGDusa say so I used him for pick up last trip 2 weeks ago. He was waiting as agreed off we went This guy speaks great english and can book you rooms at a reduced rate as well. I happened to mention to him that I needed to get a recharge card because I was out of minutes on my prepayed Dtac account he told me he could call his office and get the numbers and have my phone minutes topped off as I checked in to the hotel saved me doing it later and no charge other than the cost of the card.

 

I replaced my phone with a new model on this trip and since I did not want the Mrs to see the numbers in it I tried to lock it with a pin number well I got home and fucked up something because I could not get it unlocked it was asking for the PUK number and I had no clue what the fuck that was so I emailed Alex and within 3 hours Alex emailed me with the PUK code to unlock it. Alex is the only guy I will use on any future trips Thanks to BIGDusa

Hello All,

 

Just wanted to echo what everyone else has said about Alex and his service. Going by what was said on the board I contacted Alex and was provided with excellent service. I will be using his service again when I return to Thailand.  I just returned home from my last vist this May during Cobra Gold Week.

 

 

 

29 Feb to Mar 12, 2004

 

Just an update: Used Alex again this last trip Feb 29 to Mar 12. Used his service 3 times on this trip. Airport to Bkk, Bkk to Pattaya, and Back to the Airport. The trip back to the airport he had one of his driver's transport us back using a Volvo. Great car for transporting.

Thanks BigDUSA and everyone for recommending Alex.  He turned out to be every bit as good as you said.  Alex is big on customer satisfaction (yes, I know, sounds  unbelievable for Thailand), what ever you want, he will do his best to provide it.  He does run a few businesses, the escort service being one of them.  It seems that the escort service is geared to business travelers mostly and more expensive then what we are used to.  He showed me pictures of his girls, a few real nice ones.  Thanks again for sharing, I also will be using Alex for taxi in the future.

So Alex will meet me and my buddy at the airport and take us to our hotel in Pattaya, take the toll roads and we pay 1500 flat, no extras for tip or tolls?  Is this right guys?

 

You got it bro. If you want to stop for beer or toilet break let him know. Tell him Denny said hello and I will book him for October.

Hello Guys..

 

Well I want to post the flip side of the coin for Alex. I know that everyone has raved about his service but there is also a pitfall that hit me last friday and I hope it's an exception for Alex and not the rule. Nevertheless, I want to be sure you are all aware.

 

I confirmed a ride from Sukhumvit to Don Muang and then on to Pattaya with Alex about two weeks prior and he confirmed it. He was to pick me up at 10am in the Nana lobby. 10.10 came around and I called him on his mobile and he immediately knew me and said, "it's today?" I told him yes and he told me to give him 10-15 minutes and he would be there. He called back 15 minutes later and said he had a driver on the way. I, along with Soi7 and 2 girls (both Soi 7's of course!) waited until 10.45 and nothing. I got another taxi and off we went.

 

I was kind enough to call Alex and tell him his other driver had not shown up and I got another taxi and was now gone so he could call his driver and cancel. Alex just responded with "yeah, ok..." and not so much a single apology and hung up.

 

This could have been really bad....I had a girl heading back to Indonesia with a non-changeable, non-refundable ticket and had she missed her plane it would have cost a small fortune to buy her another ticket.

 

From everyone elses experience i'm thinking this is not typical for Alex. But, both Soi 7 and I also sent him Emails prior to this and it doesn't appear her can respond to them either. Just a word to be aware....

I tried emailing Alex and I get the email kicked back to me. If anyone is using him in the near future can you find out his new email address and pass it on.

I think this personifies TIT.

 

There has been a lot of plugging for this guy and many people plugging other services on this board and many others but I wonder whether people really consider the consequences, especially for newbies, if the shit hits the fan.

 

Think about BGs. We know you can't trust a single word most of them say but we see people getting suckered in all the time. Yet we see far greater problems of a taxi fucking us up and yet we know there is no come back, not from the driver nor from the board members who made the recommendation.

 

I'd trust a taxi driver to come back in an hour or two, or perhaps tomorrow but no way 2 weeks in advance. Fuck me, he might not even be a taxi driver by then. This is LOS remember !

Alex was waiting for us at airport and drove us safely and cheerfully to Pattaya.  Of course if he wasn't there it would have been very easy for us to take a cab or limo so his showing up on time wasn't an issue for us.

 

Thanks BigD, will check his card in my room and next time I'm at internet cafe will post his email address.

Torrenova makes a good point.

 

I usally know about 3 or 4 months in advance when I'm comming back to LOS. As soon as I book my ticket, I book my room. usally around 1 month before I leave I will book with Alex and 2 days before I leave I will email him and the hotel to remind them I'm comming. I do the same whenever and where I travel as a former boy scout, I took to heart, be prepared. This worked well when I found myself on the wrong end of a rifle in Vietnam and in my business career.

 

On the trip back to the airport, I leave enough time to cover any problems that may come up. So far this has worked well

Does anyone know if the Thai Limosine service takes the toll roads or is best to just book Alex??

 

I've never gone to Pattaya straight from the airport before, that's why I ask.

 

Cheers!!

I had a bad experience with Alex, too. I confirmed a day and time (BKK to PTY) with him 4 weeks prior to my trip. He replied by email to say he'd be there unless he emailed to the contrary. He has all my info, too. Hotel name, address and phone, and my name. So, no excuse for not being able to get in touch with me. I emailed him upon arrival (4 days prior). I also emailed the night before he was to pick me up at my hotel and take me from BKK to Pattaya. No reponse at all, so according to his email, I assume he'll be there. After all, I have a recommendation from a board member, right? He doesn't show, doesn't email, or phone. He leaves me holding the bag. I'm already checked out of my hotel, in the lobby waiting. Phone call gets me nowhere. So, now I'm looking for a ride with all my luggage in tow. Long story short, I stay in BKK for the week. I'm glad I did so, but he isn't a stand-up guy. Avoid him.

You know......Everybody has experiences dealing with Alex.

 

My experiences with Alex was positive. I sent him an e-Mail to reserve a Taxi from BKK to Pty. I sent it 2 weeks before my trip and he showed up like clockwork.

 

During my last trip i used his services 4 times and had no problems.
