As the economic climate worsens, most minicab firms are struggling to keep their businesses afloat. With increased inflation and the rise in petrol prices, most tend to downsize or go bust. However, one particular firm, GPS-Minicab are venturing out into other areas as a means for survival. In conjunction with software as a service company called eSupport (UK) Ltd, they have developed a Mobile Booking Application which will apparently revolutionise the UK Taxi and Private Hire industry. In addition, eSupport (UK) Ltd has teamed up with Addison Lee to produce the first truly innovative Mobile Taxi booking system. This GPS technology aims to automatically allocate minicab bookings to their fleet of minicab drivers across London.
Finding a good minicab service......London (UK) is a vast city with an estimated 7.5 million people occupying an area of approximately 627 sq miles; therefore, it is advisable and cheaper to choose a local minicab firm, as some companies may include for instance the congestion charge to your location. A good minicab firm should not only provide a reliable and friendly service with competitive rates, but would have considered the personal needs of the passenger, i.e. a road worthy car, drivers who are fully insured with no criminal record and have a good knowledge of the city. Perhaps this is what we all hope for, but do not necessarily get; however, small minicab firms like GPS-Minicab are striving hard to provide just that sort of service. By using the latest in mobile technology, GPS-Minicab allows their customers to book a request and keep them informed of the progress until their driver arrives to collect them.
GPS-Minicab is a small but growing firm based in London, offering everything from AIRPORT transfers, Meet and Greet PICK UP or just to collect customers after a shopping spree. Their aim is to target clients who want a regular service or corporate accounts and grow their reputation in London, with specific emphasis on West and South West London, but GPS-Minicab's existing customers will always remain their most valued accounts.
