they wait on site for the next booking then book it through the radio with the operator.

I don't think that they can do that legally.

£7 quid from the bottom of Hanley, Trinity St to Basford? Once again reason to prove that drivers are overcharging. The company the operate at the casino is a1 national, they state that their prices are the same 24/7 so this fare should have been £5 tops. With the assault been unacceptable so was the price and our fantastic Stoke on Trent Council should also investigate. Drivers are at risk and do need to make a living and its becoming increasingly harder each week because of overcharging by our fellow professionals.



I thought something wasn't right when I read that the Casino was operated by A1 National PH then the name Abdul Kalik popped up, the first thing that popped into my head was overcharging and illegally plying for hire.

Its been like that for years, many of times when you drop off there, the private hire are waiting I think with it been on private land there may be some loophole in the system

Bottom line with this is he tried to take the P, when it turned on him he had no defence and I suspect the perp thought you tried to rob me I'll show ya how it's really done, I've no time for these drivers, they are what they are and they lose me business and cause me grief because they are killing the image of a cabby, or rather re-affirming the typecast of a cabby.
