I just wanted to write you letting you know how great your service was for my boyfriend’s bday surprise. From letting us look at the fleet to answering all my emails and calls. The limo was on time and spotless. Jason the driver was awesome! He was professional and he was very nice. We had a blast and will be looking forward to using Platinum in the future. Thanks again!

A happy Customer

Responses from our clients

Friday, November 11th, 2011

After answering our phones for 10 years one thing I know is that clients are nervous when reserving a limo in Phoenix. They want to be reassured that they have made the right decision and chosen the right company for their event.

I tell clients the bullet points of our resume:

  • We have been in business for 10 years
  • Platinum Ride Limos is a family run business
  • Our limo company has earned an A++ rating with the BBB
  • The average year of our fleet is 2009

The truth is I think a lot of that goes in one ear and out the other.

What I think really resonates with potential clients is the opinions of our past clients.

Here are opinions of past clients who used Platinum Ride Limos in Phoenix.

Here are a few notes to us from past clients:

“Hi Joey, We all had a great time this weekend. It’s all everyone has talked about since.  Steve and Albert were great to us also. I told them thank you and very well may have given them a hug (it was late so I can’t remember) but they were great.

I found you guys and a couple other companies in the same google search. There was another company that was used for a bus a couple weeks ago and PR Limosines definitely impressed us compared to the other company. I think the only thing I heard feedback was that the CD player was skipping.

Hope you and your brother were able to enjoy the holiday weekend. Stevie”

“The girls said the driver was great. I found you on the internet. We’d certainly consider you guys again in the future.

Thanks for the great service.

Andy”

“Hi Joey. The service was excellent. Look forward to continually using your services. Thanks. David”

“Hi Joey,

Once again, fantastic service.  Bryan said, “I believe we’ve found our guys!”

Like I have stated to you in the past, we’ve been through several transportation services over the past 6 years because of poor service….the first one or two transfers go well then it goes downhill.  You guys have been top notch and we have a great feeling you will continue to be.

Bryan and I look forward to a long lasting business relationship with Platinum Rides.

Let me know what you think?

Do these kind words from past client make you feel better about making a reservation with Platinum Ride Limo and Party Buses?

Arizona Limo Company on the Move!

Friday, May 13th, 2011

Arizona Limo Company on the Move!

Platinum Ride Limos & Party Buses is moving forward with a stategically planned expansion.

We are getting more limos! To put it simply.

We just received a brand new 2011 25-30 pass Party Bus as well as a 2011 8-10 pass Lincoln Stretch Limo. In addition to these we expect delivery of a 2011 Chrysler 300 in mid-June.

Platinum Ride Limousines is always trying to keep up with the latest styles and technologies and these vehicles have them.

The truth is you expect the best when booking a limo in Phoenix and a lot of Limo companies in Phoenix have forgotten that. The trend is to keep older model vehicles much longer. These companies may offer slighter better prices but they should be as they are offering a lesser product.

I know first-hand, companies that offer Party Buses in Phoenix that are 15, 20 and even 25 years old! They offer slightly lower rates but they should they offer a lesser product. In a lot of cases these vehicles don’t meet DOT compliance which may not mean anything to you now, but there are vehicle enforcement units that have impounded vehicles on site. Leaving clients stranded at their event. That may be the least of your worries though because these vehicles are safety hazards as well.

Clients call me everyday asking me for rates and saying they don’t care if their party bus is old they want the cheapest price. Then the same clients call me on Saturday night begging me for a vehicle to come and help them because the vehicle they reserved and got a great price on just broke down!

I tell you with all sincerity it happens every week.

Have a bad limo or party bus story to tell me?

If I post it I will give you a discount on a limo!

Give us a call and come down to check out our newest vehicle additions. We are going to do a great job for you.

Limos for School Dances

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Homecoming dances are coming up and we are getting a ton of email requests for limos and party buses here in phoenix. This is the time of year when I try to give some good advice to students and parents looking for prices for  transportation to the school dance.

 

  1. Call 7-10 limousine companies in the phoenix metro area.
  2. Look for online reviews, previous clients are the best way to judge a company you are considering.
  3. When calling don’t focus on the price, ask about the company how long have they been in business, what year are the vehicles in their fleet, can you go down and take a look at the vehicles, etc…
  4. Use a credit card to make your reservation! If you don’t, ask yourself what your going to do if the company does not show up?
  5. Most reputable companies will have you sign a contract or terms and conditions agreement. This is good for both you and the company you have chosen. Everything should be in writing so you are all on the same page.

After you have made your calls and checked online reviews you should be down to a couple of companies. Ask yourself if the prices you had been getting and the pricing of the companies you have left to choose from are in line with the others. When you make these calls you should have a decent idea of the ballpark price.

 

If a price seems too good to be true (RED FLAG) If the company won’t let you see the vehicle (RED FLAG) If the company requires cash (RED FLAG) If you see a company with no reviews on line (RED FLAG)

 

Take you time and be diligent in your search because if you aren’t, or simply choose the cheapest limo company you may be disappointed when they don’t show up, or show up late, or show up in an old junky limo or party bus, or the driver shows up in a polo shirt and jeans, or any number of things. It happens more often than you may think and you will be the one who has to explain what happened to those kids and their parents.

 

Platinum Ride Limos & Party Buses has been in business for almost 10 years now. We have been ranked as a “TOP 10” operator almost that entire time. If you look online you are going to see a ton of great reviews from our past clients, I am not aware of any bad reviews online.

 

Google our name, (Platinum Ride Limousines Phoenix reviews or Platinum Party Bus phoenix reviews) and you can search through.

 

Everyone here wants the same thing, for our guests to have a great experience with us and we have been successful because of our dedication to the service we provide.

 

I hope you will give us the opportunity to serve you, we are gonna do a great job for you.

Limo Reality Show? Not Real At All

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

 I get a call from my brother last week and he tells me he saw a trailer on TRU TV for a reality show about LIMO BOB. Limo Bob is a character who owns a limo company in Chicago and he is crazy.

 

He is the Mr. T of our industry, gold chains and all. Well we watched it and I have to say it was one of the dumbest things I have ever watched on TV and I have 4 kids, I watch stupid stuff on TV all the time.

 TheLimoPosse

There were several story lines in the show that are just not believable. In every story Limo Bob’s wife rushes into his office and out of breath tells him there is a last minute occasion and the client needs a limo ASAP!!!

 

Like they are some kind of superhero Limo Company coming to the rescue.

 

Then he summons a driver and the LIMO BOB machine goes full throttle to make it to the last minute run. From that point craziness ensues, at one point a SWEET 16 birthday party trashes the limo and LIMO BOB comes to the drivers rescue and a fight breaks out where the stretch Chrysler 300 limo gets the windshield bashed in by the client and her dad with a baseball bat. LIMO BOB and his henchmen wrestle the clients and demand payment.

 

Another story line was a birthday party where clients booked an H2 Hummer Limo and it was full of cross dressers getting frisky with the driver. Hey, I don’t judge, money’s green no matter what you’re wearing or who you date, I always say.

 

This limo company even offers what they refer to as a “MIDGET MATRE’DEE” Which is a little person running up and down the aisle of the limo serving drinks.

 

I can tell you first hand that this business has thrown me for a loop over the years and I can spin you some limo stories you wouldn’t believe, but that show was totally over the top. This show makes limo guys look bad “NOT REALITY, ACTUALITY” is the TRU TV motto but there isn’t anything actual or real about it.

 

Call me and reserve a Phoenix limo and I’ll tell you a story that is real.

Brother Where Art Thou?

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

It is another hot July and that is when the mass exodus out of Phoenix begins. My brother Joey and I are stuck here running the limo biz.
