We have terms and conditions that cover breakdowns etc. The customer is advised to have insurance. I don't believe that you could be sued for any loss of business. Planes and trains are cancelled on a regular basis without any compensation being paid.

TBH I'd rather go bankrupt than seek your help. If the boot were on the other foot, the only thing you would hear would be the sound of my laughter :D

Herein lies the problem with some in this trade.
If someone is in my area and has a problem, I go out of my way to help them out.
When I worked in limoland there were always big fall outs on the forums. I used to have some mega rucks with the owner of Lancashire Limos. But one day I was in Blackpool and I had a problem with a tyre and because of the luggage in the boot there was no room for the spare. I phoned Russ and within half an hour he had lent me a spare wheel.

let it die, no-ones bothered...

ring the AA or RAC instead, if you have passengers onboard ring 118118 and ask for a taxi firm, hoping they are available

How so very true, mostly backstabbers scared they might miss a penny

Gusmac might not be the one laughing though....

Pot & kettle. :shock:

How many have you stabbed in the back?
You consider rules and regulations to be an inconvenience to be gotten around.
You tart yourself around how many councils to licence cheaper or older, so you can undercut others?
The only one in this conversation who has form for backstabbing and putting money first is you, ya **** bawbag.
WTF makes you think I'd want to offer a helping hand to the likes of you? I'd sooner eat a shite sandwich FFS
In 17 years I've not had a fare that went through your manor and I doubt I will in the next 17. But, in the unlikely event that I do and should I be in need of help, rest assured I won't be asking you. I don't deal with fascist scum.
If you're ever stuck up this way, do yourself a favour - don't call me. I wouldn't pish on you if you were on fire.

Now I'd happily help out most people if I could, even people I've argued with on here. You're just one of a very few exceptions.
