I am not quite sure I understand why Conde have now got another company as I have looked again at pollensashuttle.com and their private transfer airport cost is 80 euros so why would somebody use that rather than Conde at 73 euros? It looks as though they are competing against themselves unless I have totally misunderstood something?

I have never used the company and after reading some of these reports I am sure I never will if this the way customers are treated. We would not accept that standard in the UK so why therefore would we do so whilst on holiday
As I put in my previous post because I had used regularly and been really pleased that is why I continued with my booking and I am sure this is the case with many others. Now I doubt I will use again unless reviews change drastically in the meantime to reflect the previous good standards we received.

So if Conde is not to be used for the reasons given then who is? Reliable safe proper taxi good value etc, we are returning in September and have always used Conde, but hubby especially was not happy about the mini bus and texting.

The regular taxi rank at the Port charged our son only 78 euros for the return to the airport but not sure about the situation just turning up at the airport and getting a proper taxi for the incoming journey - I have seen it said that they could charge 90 euros. Has anyone experience of this as we couldn't see a formal taxi rank outside the airport?

In my past experience the "airport taxis" charged much more.
We got to know one of the local PP drivers and always call him when we need a cab .

I always book Zarza taxis for family and friends ( we always hire a car )
Great family run business. Very professional, clean cars and always there when you arrive. Highly recommended!

They go beyond the call of duty too as my son and his family arrived at 1am and had to collect a travel cot from us to take to their apartment about a mile away. The driver said it was no problem and waited about ten minutes while my son went up to our lock up on the roof and rummaged around in the dark
