    Watched loads of your Videos Olly good to see you get some nice touches on jobs! Can I ask an question though? You've got a badge for all of London, how do specific area cabbies make a living?? As eveytime I see you go further North or South the app jobs become Almost like a life line albeit at at a heavy cost of commission per job I personally can't see people can make a decent living if hands in the air are thin in the ground??? Keep up the content really good mate

  • @crumpet0909
    @crumpet0909 6 місяців тому

    Great video as always! I have a question. Whats the deal with black cab etiquette with taking app jobs at LHR. Shouldn’t you direct them to the nearest rank?

    • @ALondonCabbie
      @ALondonCabbie 6 місяців тому

      Thank you. If you accept the job you can pick up your customer (although shouldn’t be picking up app customers off Taxi Ranks (LHR being short stay car park). Regarding LHR all customers have the option to go to the rank, Taxi ranks are signposted throughout each terminal. The majority of app jobs are corporate accounts. Those that are not, tend to prefer using an app. I guess the same way some people go into McDonald’s or Wetherspoons and use the app to order and pay for their food/drinks instead of going to the counter.

Keep those U turns coming and wind up the 🚲😆When you started to say "Ch..." for the destination of the last job, I thought that it was going to be "Chiswick", or even worse, "Chessington"!
