It's the same all over, they are scared to put their prices up due to companies who want a race to the bottom by charging silly cheap fares.

Just ask them why they think punters are prepared to pay Uber surge prices, but not reasonable cab fares.

Eight years without an increase is scandalous. :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

I'd quite happily rewind our fares eight years if as a consequence the number of cars is more than halved, as Charles seems to be suggesting... \:D/ :-k
