@Edent there was briefly a "taxi" app that essentially aggregated many of the local private hire companies. It worked something like a combination of an insurance comparison site and Uber: say where you want to go and it'll give you a list of quotes for the fare; pick whichever you want, and the app handles booking, journey tracking, and payment - just like Uber.Sadly, it closed a few months after I discovered it (unrelated events, I'm sure).
