All that means is City Cabs will be doing all the shi*e coming out of these hotels, while ECPH get all the cream, airports, country jobs and the like...

I can't believe that you continually spraff this sheite Skull. I think because you were discarded by the trade so long ago you are so out of touch there's no way back for you. Your kind of like Marti in Back to the Future. I worry for you Skull. I don't think where your living is doing you any favours, you know when your mums your dad and your dads your sister.

Chill out Skull

Don't care what the radio companies get or lose work wise but before all at city cabs get excited re the Scotsman Hotel just have a look back at a story VERY recently in the EEN where staff are not being paid etc etc. If they can do that to staff why not to service providers
Maybe Central are not as daft as some may think
Also does 3 hotel contracts really cover the recent loss of a rather large contract (well half a contract) to Central??? never knew hotels were so great at generating business

Yes Skull that is exactly how we gained the three hotels, we offered a low un winnable discount on the social work contract, which was agreed by the members at the AGM, meaning CRT won it with their high discounting strategy, it's a big contract and a busy one especially during rush hour, they became less reliable to the hotels because they are so tied down to their chuckie work, I'm hearing more are just about to follow

The trade is more about reliability&service and not so much about price

Aye right enough Reggie, City Cabs must be more reliable with a large chunk of the fleet sitting out at the Airport, especially at peak times. No Chance!!!

I smell another deal struck under the table by Messrs Dod and Les and the boys from ECPH. Who lets face it, will be getting all the cream anyway.

Please my friend if you are going to claim I said the above get your facts correct before posting. I never said what you claim ("they won half a contract by means of unsustainable discount levels"). Suggest you re read my post.
Also just for clarity I give not a jot about City nor Central. Good luck to you all in your little battles to be the biggest and best provider of Hackney Cabs in Edinburgh. I provide a polite service to all my customers and have never had anyone complain about my prices nor attitude in 30 years of driving, I must be doing something right. Happy with what I earn on the street and again for clarity I never have nor will I use in the future Uber Get Taxi or any future App. Thanks for the compliment (I think ) in the sentence below
