Bolt and free now are more reliable and much cheaper than Uber
Chief
I dropped it for free now
Rising Star
Brexit
Bolt is starting to develop those patterns as well. I always just try both at the same time until I get a hit. Sometimes it’ll take up to 15 minutes to even get a confirmed driver… central london for some reason seems to be the worst!
Didn’t know FreeNow was in London! Will give that a try as well…
Whenever I can somewhat predict the need for a car I go with Addison Lee / Carrot Cars
Uber was heading that way before covid - and the exodus of drivers just expedited it.
Conversation Starter
Try Bolt
Late at night I’ve started using buses instead. Between waiting and the journey, the bus ends up being as fast and waaaaay cheaper.
And before midnight, I just hail black cabs now.
Pro
Uber Exec usually works but costs a bit more
I think the drivers are on all of the apps so it compounds further. It took me an hour the other night across them all (incl. AdiLee on corp account)
