I’m not being funny but… getting around London is a f***ing joke — and it’s not the cabbies’ fault. I don’t drink and don’t smoke; black cabs are the one vice I still have. But they’re now becoming a luxury I can’t afford. I’ve always used them to get from A to B, yet recently it’s gotten way out of hand.
Seems like there’s always a surge-charge and a long wait when you order one through apps like Gett. It ends up leaving a bad taste in my mouth towards the drivers but it’s not their fault. It’s the apps: London’s cabbies work so hard. TfL and The Mayor of London need to do more to help them.
