Taxi Deal

shadowcomplex

I was wondering if any of you that know taxis that are prepared to do a deal if you pay weekly or even monthly in advance, I moved house recently and my new place is a bit of a distance from work. A taxi costs about 10 or 11 euro to where I work and having to pay that for going home also would mean my monthly tax bill would be 400 a month, I intend to get on the road myself as soon as I can but my only option is a taxi or buy a bicycle

I'm almost certain you can set up an account with rapid cabs. I don't know How the pricing works at all but i assume its pay monthly.

400 a month in taxi fee !!!!!!!!!! My advice is BUY A BIKE you have the benefit of getting fit while you wait to get on the road yourself and that 400 a month can pay for your tax and insurance for a year ....

Try waterford hackney 051331033, even if you don't get a bulk deal, there will not be charging you 10 or 11 euro.

Get a bike! You'll save yourself a fortune! If it;s 400 a month at the moment, then you'll have paid for the bike in about 3 weeks! Ask your HR person about the cycle to work scheme, and you'll save even more.
I cycle to work. It's just over 8km, and it only takes 25 mins. Got a taxi once (too hungover to cycle) and it cost me 15 quid. :eek:

seems the deal ya got on the place aint worth it if ya have to pay 400 pm on taxis,might as well live closer to town.
