The client can be any individual who has reached the age of 18 or a legal entity that makes a valid reservation and pays for the rental of a car with a driver (transfer). A valid reservation can be made in writing through the order form on the website or by messaging the specified phone or online messengers. Every client must, before completing the reservation form, familiarize themselves with the contents of these general conditions and expressly confirm that they are acquainted with them and accept their content.
In case the reservation relates to several passengers, it is assumed that the person making the reservation confirms on behalf of the other passengers. The company reserves the right to refuse to transfer a person who is visibly intoxicated or under the influence of narcotics, or whose behavior is considered a threat to the driver and the vehicle. In the event that the client’s flight is canceled, delayed, or redirected to another airport, we should be promptly informed of the new arrival time and place. If the notification is made too late, the client should make a new request.
We can transfer from the new point of arrival only if there is the possibility on our part and only if the client agrees in writing to pay all additional costs for this. Smoking, eating, drug use, and consumption of alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited in the vehicle. If the client and/or accompanying persons are visibly intoxicated and show aggression towards the driver or third parties, the driver may refuse to perform the transfer.
The company declares that:
All vehicles used for the “car rental with driver” service (transfer) are insured in accordance with Bulgarian legislation, and as of the service date, they possess valid insurance policies.
All vehicles used for the “car rental with driver” service (transfer) comply with all local, regional, and national safety and health requirements according to Bulgarian legislation.
All prices listed on the website or agreed upon with the client in writing are final and not subject to change.
Reservation and Payment
The car rental agreement with the driver (transfer) between the client and the company is considered concluded from the moment the client makes a valid payment for the service or makes a pre-booking. The client receives confirmation of the reservation made at the email address or phone number provided by him in the reservation form.
Each client must complete the necessary information in the reservation form, providing complete, accurate, and true information regarding the travel date, airport, city, number of passengers, and exact departure time. Infants and children are included in the total number of passengers, and their inclusion in the reservation form is MANDATORY.
The company accepts reservations for transfers made no later than 24 hours before the scheduled transfer time.
Before providing the service, the client should provide the company with confirmation of the reservation on a paper carrier. In case you have not received a confirmation of the reservation to your email, even though you have made a valid payment, or if you forget (lose) it, please contact us immediately via our email office@burgas.taxi or by phone at +359 8778 33391.
In addition to the reservation confirmation, the client receives an invoice for the payment made.
Payment is made on the spot in cash to the driver or to the company’s representative meeting the passenger, before the transfer takes place.
Advance payment of the entire contract amount is also accepted via bank transfer.
Luggage
The luggage of each client must be specified in advance in the reservation form. The company will assess, based on the size of the luggage and the number of passengers, which vehicle will be suitable for the journey. For any luggage exceeding the specified dimensions, such as bicycles, wheelchairs, strollers, golf equipment, and others, the client should explicitly inform when completing the form.
Change or Cancellation of Client Reservation
Changing an already confirmed reservation is possible only if requested by the client no less than 24 hours before the start of the transfer and is confirmed by us at the client’s provided email address. If the client wishes to make changes to the reservation, they must inform us no less than 24 hours before the start of the transfer.
Although we will make efforts to accommodate these changes, we do not guarantee that we will be able to meet such requests. Reservations for transfers with incorrect start dates or times due to client error may not always be processed if the error is reported less than 48 hours before the transfer’s start date. Changes are also possible during the provision of the service, leading to additional fees according to the requested changes by the client.
All cancellations must be sent in writing to our corporate email: office@burgas.taxi no less than 24 hours before the start of the transfer or by phone, as indicated on the company’s website. Cancellation given orally to a company representative (e.g., driver) or in writing to other email addresses will not be considered valid.
Company’s Responsibility
The company’s driver meets the client at the specified place and time indicated in the reservation. In case a representative of Burgas Taxi Transfer LTD cannot be found at the meeting place, the client must immediately call the phone numbers provided on our website. If such a phone call is not registered in the office of Burgas Taxi Transfer LTD, the request is considered canceled due to NON-NOTIFICATION by the client. In this case, the client is not entitled to compensation and is obliged to pay the full amount for the transfer.
The driver is obliged to be at the meeting place exactly at the agreed-upon time and wait for the client. If the client is delayed by more than 1 hour from the flight landing for reasons beyond their control (e.g., baggage delay, document issues), and timely notification to a representative of Burgas Taxi Transfer LTD has not been made, in such a case, we are not liable to compensate the client for non-performance of the transfer.
