So every TDO member has an email, many will have a smartphone/android/iphone capable of getting emails why not have an email addy to TDO that gets resent to all members so if you breakdown you send an email with your location, phone number and where our heading and how many passengers you have onboard? |

that wouldn't work unless everyone checked their email at least once an hour How about a TDO database of members business phone numbers AND location that a member could look up for suitable emergency cover |

I'm not convinced that everyone would want their details on an open list, but TDO does have a massive database. I think however google is a better place to go should a member need help to cover work. |

Sending bulk emails resulted in most members leaving another forum that I used to be on. |

It still raises the point though since only a handful of members check the site regularly the same probably applies to emails the result would probably be a reply 24 hours later the only way to get a fast response is by tellephoning someone near to your location |

Would TDO be accused of '' making the provision for the invitation or acceptance of bookings for a private hire vehicle"? We wouldn't want that.
