John bluebird. Drinks in the canton cross.
Terry, drinks in the Church Inn, Llanishen. :thumbup:
Use Uber and put the corrupt and wanker taxi drivers that have infested this city out to pasture.
It seems that cantonboy doesn't live in cardiff so he could probably do with another way of contacting the drivers than dragging them out of the pub. :hehe:
Don't rely on them turning up though and don't use their apQuote:

Best he catch a bus ?
Oh wait a minute they block the roads and show up late etc
He's best walking
I have never had a bad experience using Uber thus far and the value is incredible (appreciate they are trying to overpower the market with cheap prices).
I have had so many shitty experiences with the likes of dragons taxis and their moronic drivers that I wish them all the very worst. They hate Uber and want them gone so Uber gets a big thumbs up from me.
Don't freelance drivers have the ability to use Uber and Dragon or Premier if they wish?Quote:

You agree beforehand on a price with Uber via the excellent app, that seems to be where the majority of quibbling comes from with the likes of Dragons. The majority of them have incredibly poor English which seems to miraculously get worse when you remind them they have taken a wrong turn.

They make it up as they go along, higher fares at different times and even higher fares if it's raining .
F***ing thieves
Download the app.Quote:

I have never had a bad experience with them unlike Dragons taxis.
PM me your number I will text you mine. Not sure how to pm you on this new board mateyQuote:

If she was told it was going to be £85, she would have not got in the car.
Which part of this are you having trouble understanding ?
Not having trouble understanding anything. I have no idea what occured here but you do agree a price beforehand, download the app and see for yourself. This bint has been told to release this nonsense by the hackney cab bosses who are terrified about the magnitude of Ubers growth.Quote:

Rather use them than greedy taxi drivers, there's nothing worse, except greedy coach operators that is! :hehe:

Uber could have some competition in the UK soon.
Lyft offering some great discounts in the US.
Uber has been fantastic for the last few years that I have been using it.
A good 20-30% cheaper where I am than what was on offer and incredibly more reliable.
If it puts ranks out of business so be it, at least the drivers can work for themselves.
Some local officials may be a bit bent out of shape though.
In addition, the customers aren't going to be stiffed by some dodgy bastards that have been trying it on with the extra fares over the years.
