Taxi Driver Online

So West One cars only have 6 cars.
Next your be telling us that Addison Lee only have 5 people carriers.
your need to update your info.

Plus your now telling the drivers on here that John Kennedy and my self are the same person.
You really should not comment on things you no nothing about and that includes the cab trade.
Still hope to see you later this week and you can meet al the drivers you think I am.

West One also gives work to Licensed Taxi's as they share accounts with a Radio Circuit.

I never said you and the actor were the same? I asked you if you were 'John the Cabbie Kennedy' as you both . . . how can I put it? . . . Seem to have the same issues.

Know nothing? Now there's something I would bow to your superior knowledge on.

Attend the meeting? About 6 Minicabs in Whitcomb Street? About Non LTDA members trying to spend my subscriptions? I think you already have the answer in another related thread.

Would you like a small bet of the final outcome of all this 'action' and E-Mailing? I think you know the answer to that already.

Your losing your touch, you haven't got the thread locked yet.

Taxi radio firms sharing work with min cabs has got to stop as well.

Why?

Come along and find out!

Well nice chatting but I realy have to go to work now.

Be lucky Mr A, try Whitcomb Street, the Minicab office is closed tonight.

No wrong again it was open all night with police protection and cones.
I dont know where you get your info from but I would look for a better source if I were you.

Ah well, let us all know when you've saved the trade Mr A, we'll look forward to it.

The PCO have now issued a notice with reference to this Minicab set up.


Leicester Square (Whitcomb Street)

There have been reports about a minicab "rank" being set up in Whitcomb Street, near Leicester Square. These reports are incorrect: no rank is permitted for minicabs or other private hire vehicles, here or elsewhere in London.

The TKTS booth in Leicester Square has been licensed by TfL as a private hire operating centre through the same licensing processes that apply for any other premises used by a private hire operator.

Westminster City Council has changed the traffic orders for the tour bus stand in Whitcomb St, which is taken out of operation at night (9 pm - 4 am) allowing vehicles to stop to pick up or set down passengers.
Parking and waiting are not permitted on this stretch of road at these times. However, a dispensation is in place allowing licensed vehicles from West1 Minicabs, the operator licensed to use the TKTS booth, to wait a short time for a booked passenger. Enforcement of the parking and waiting restrictions is a matter for Westminster City Council.

Vehicles are not available for immediate hire without a booking taken at the licensed operating centre. After making a booking at the licensed office, passengers are escorted to Whitcomb Street to locate the booked vehicle. All aspects of taxi and private hire legislation must be complied with.

Taxi ranks on Whitcomb Street and Coventry Street are served by hackney carriages which can take customers without any booking.
