Me, wife and daughter went to the London Boat Show today and because of engineering works and the tube strikes we got an Uber taxi from Blackfriars Stn to Excel.
The whole process was quick, efficient and pain free.
Taxi turned up which in two minutes, the app told me the drivers name, the plate and make of the vehicle. The driver was polite and very helpful.
The cost was £13.
Now the problems start. Two of my mates are black cab drivers and I just had a chat via Facebook with one of them. He went crazy at what I did. He has accused me of taking food off his table, using a rogue company that have bribed their way in with their un-qualified drivers and cheap vehicles.
What does the panel think. Uber seem to be peeing off a lot of people all over Europe at the moment.
