Over the weekend, we used Custom Limousine for a bachelorette party. We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 hour winery/brewery tour in the excursion limousine. Our chauffeur, Carey, was amazing! Unfortunately, the morning of the event, the owner (I believe), called me to let me know that that they struggled to find a driver to replace one with a family emergency, who was originally slated to be our chauffer, and since they offered us a great rate, he was hoping we wouldn t mind paying additional money. He mentioned that he had guaranteed the driver an additional $200 above the $100 tip we had paid up front, so he was hoping we would be willing to pay more, otherwise it would come out of his pocket. That put both me (and honestly, the chauffer) in a very awkward place. Note: it is never acceptable to call and ask for more money for a service that was already agreed upon and contracted.
Unfortunately, our great experience with our chauffeur was tainted with the request by the owner to pay additional money for the services so it didn't have to come out of his own pocket.
