What, your saying you weren't picked up late, presumably because the driver was sleeping in his car in the middle lane of the A23, by an escaped convicted murderer in a 1980's cut 'n' shut Vauxhall Cavalier with four bald tyres, taken for a 4hr drive around the country before be relieved of your...
I use Uber a reasonable amount in B&H and I have to say that I’m still yet to get a driver who has come from anywhere other than a local neighboring district. Think the furthest afield has been Lewes... besides which it does tell you where the driver has been granted a licence when they agrees...
Urgh, I know this will upset people on here but these unions really need to get a grip on reality. We do not live in the 1970's, technology exists and people will use it anyway they can to make money, help people and god forbid, create a product which disrupts the norm. All unions seek to do now...

Wow, nothing like having a council panel who are open to the idea...
So this only relates to B&H Hackney/Private licence Uber, if they are licensed elsewhere (say Adur) then they can carry on operating in the city. Needless to say the council reasoning to revoke is dubious, they point to a data breach of Uber's data back in 2016 and say that due to this Uber are...
