As someone who doesn't drive and never had the desire to (even though I was of age to do so before…read moregraduated licensing) the way that I get around is my trusty B.M.W (Bus, Metro, Walk... or in london that means Taxi's instead of Metro). For years the taxi scene was two companies: Abouttown & U-Need-A now known as Blue & White and Yellow & Black respectively. Then came Checker which was a little more on the pricy side but flat-rate and cleaned up cars. Now in the era of Uber there are many more companies vying for your cab dollar then ever before. We have Green Taxi which was alright when I took it but the driver was a bit off putting for us and we weren't sure all the cabs were like that so we didn't venture far from the two standards in the city for the longest time. Then came one fateful day downtown when we called for our preferred choice: Blue & White and were told it would be a 30 min wait because they were all less than a block away from us waiting for train passengers. Umm... okay, so waiting on fares that may or may not use them versus someone standing on a street who actually wants one??? I was confused but figured okay all the taxis must be busy so we agreed to wait. On an off chance we spotted a yellow taxi go by, we'd never taken them before but figured we'd flag it down and take our chances. I called the dispatcher back for the other company and told them to cancel my cab because I didn't want to be 'that person' (to which I was told they hadn't dispatched one anyways... guess we would have been waiting longer huh??) The taxi got us to our desination faster than I've ever seen and not even driving recklessly. Plus the fare came to $5 under our usual price that we budgeted out for the ride. From that day forth we've continued to go yellow only. Always getting a low rate, always getting where we are going fast and even most times they know it's us calling and even call back if they arrive before we get downstairs to greet them to let us know they are waiting. In a pinch I'll grab another if I have to but I've never waited longer than 10 minutes for one of their cabs so they are my taxi of choice in town right now.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. I took a Yellow London taxi from the Via Train Station to Monmore Rd in…read moreWhitehills on Saturday, June 28 at 8:30. The driver deliberately took circuitous routes through two subdivisions. When I finally called him on it after he had driven in circles in Whitehills, I was driven to my destination. All he had to offer as an explanation when I told him Uber was definitely a better choice was that they (taxi drivers in London) had to try this tactic to make a living!! I am a 75 year old woman and he clearly thought he could take advantage of me. Absolutely unacceptable behaviour. No reputable company should condone this practice. There are other alternatives to London Taxi.
