Pre-Booked · Fixed Fare · TfL Licensed 11588
Looking for an Addison Lee alternative in London?
If you use Addison Lee for the pre-booking, the professional drivers and the account billing — but you'd rather the fare never moved and a human always answered — RushXO is built for you. Fixed fares agreed at booking, executive cars at a transparent +20%, corporate invoicing, and a fleet from saloon to 16-seater. No surge, ever.
Why business travellers switch
Addison Lee earned its position: reliable pre-booking, presentable cars, account billing. The reasons regular users look elsewhere tend to be the same three: pricing that flexes with demand and time of day, big-fleet service that can feel anonymous, and premium rates on every single journey. RushXO keeps what works and fixes those three.
- Genuinely fixed fares. The price at booking is the price charged — 3am or 3pm, rain or Cup Final. No demand-based pricing exists in our model at all.
- A human on the line, 24/7. Phone and WhatsApp answered by people, not an app queue. Your driver's name and registration confirmed at booking, never on the day.
- Transparent vehicle pricing. Saloon fares published; Executive Mercedes/BMW at +20%; MPV at +40%; 8, 9 and 16-seaters for groups — one vehicle, one fare, everyone together.
- Corporate accounts without the minimums. Monthly invoicing, VAT receipts on every journey, priority dispatch, a named contact — and no minimum monthly spend to qualify.

Executive service, priced honestly
Latest Mercedes-Benz E-Class or BMW 5 Series with a suited, DBS-checked driver — meet & greet inside arrivals on airport work, flight tracked, 60 minutes' free waiting from landing. Priced at a flat +20% on the saloon fare rather than a separate premium tariff, so an executive Heathrow run is planned to the pound before you book.
Corporate accounts & monthly invoicing
One monthly invoice across all travellers, VAT receipts on every journey for clean expense reporting, priority dispatch, and a named account contact who knows your travellers by name. Whether it's daily client runs, a visiting board, or staff working past the last train — open an account in one email to support@rushxo.com or see corporate accounts.
