This was a really interesting video Mark. I hope this app takes off in London. In Glasgow we have a zone and rank system for allocation of dispatch jobs. Each rank has its own zone and any job within that zone goes to the first cab on the rank. If no cars on the rank accept then it will go onto the closest cab bid system like TaxiApp. Keeps it fair, with work going to the driver who’s been waiting rather than fastest finger first/right place right time.

That’s sounds like a great system that benefits the drivers and keeps the work fair, like the sound of that. Thanks for watching

Another great video mate. I've been driving a Taxi in London for 5 months and tbh I've not really given "TAXIAPP" a fair shout. I'll look to make sure the apps open and live when I head out next.

Hi Mark; a very interesting and informative video. However, after downloading the app, I get a message that the service isn’t available in my area, the southern tip of the Isle of Dogs.

When downloading the app I see there is a booking fee at 4 pounds. I think that is perhaps a bit steep and what will a ride from Manor House station to Gibson Square cost hailed on the street or via taxiapp?

A booking fee on top of the fare wouldn’t work for me. Presumably this means it’s more expensive to use the App than to hail a taxi on the street.

As a customer I found it very difficult to get drivers on taxiapp , means have to end up using free now and both me and the driver paying the high fees. Taxiapp needs better investment in the app I think in terms of the gps etc. surely better getting all drivers off free now and onto taxiapp
