we are experiencing most of the above problems plus on a saturday night
its quite common to press callback then 15 mins later when the passenger is leaving your cab in town usually you get a call back succsesfull message,we are curently operating around 160 taxis, its not good for the punters who are used to callback and will ignore any horns sounded(which is illegal)but also any knocks on the door, the only answer is to try and educate the customer as to how it works and to explain the saturday demand which seems to be growing all the time, on another note dundee council have issued new licenses to the hack owners who forgot to renew them even those who continued to run cabs past their license expiry date
all the new licenses are hacks in a town which is already fighting to stop any new licenses being granted , it seems the council are now concerned about public safety its a pity they weren,t ten years ago, they should consider themself lucky im happy with my wav plate otherwise id have them through the court system quicker than a councillor decides to walk down a dark alley with a dodgy person

Public Safety? what public safety.
An extra 100 to 120 extra Wavs eating into a decreasing market,an extra 25% increase in vehicles,come on,get a life.

The quicker Dave Young starts phase 2 with 203020,you guys will be pleading to put your sets in his place.

Believe the new wavs are suffering,cannot afford the payments,good,a set
of greedy beggars,now realising how much money they were making as
drivers,although,the greenhorns can,t.

Hell mend the lot of you.

Disgruntled but happy,proper taxi operator.

Would like to see that one in action.

Asked about it for my company, was told I coud see a demo in Basildon, still have not got the invite.

Still It is only a few weeks away yet, maybe Jed will put me on the mail list he is going to send out next week. That is of course if he is not on his lunch break.

I have a telephone number you know, and an address, god what am I thinking about, I should take my business somewhere else really, but where?

The only one I can think of in Basildon is Gary Brand's A&B Taxis. They are decenet guys, try ringing them direct and they will probably show you their system.
