I would contact the big taxi firm, I think it's called GTOA, or something like that.
Then a call to the Samaritans might be an idea.

Also, is it a requirement to rent a radio from the hack operators or can you just work off the ranks and such. Personally, had enough of the private hire circuit and their mostly petty operators, would be a nice change to go out to work without having them barking down the voice channel lol. |

Give Glasgow Taxis a phone at 141 429 2900 They will get you started. Have you worked in taxis before ??? If not, after you get your licence you may want to hire a hack for a few months to see if it's the job for you. It's not a requirment to have a radio, you can hire a hack without one. |

deargreenblackhack, no mate ive not worked a hack yet but been in privates for 2 years plus , so apart from the obvious differences i think it would be better on the whole. I reckon it would be best to secure a plate first and then go for a cab, as opposed to the other way around. But apprciate the contact number, will give them a buzz,,,cheers |

Given the amount of people ignoring the uncertainty  then I doubt if the values have changed much 
But if things go pear-shaped in a year or two, I suspect you won't be mentioning then that you were aware of the 'uncertainty' when you bought the plate
