promo code, 'myfirstmytaxi' for £10 off of your first trip.
A free cab ride right there, now that's looking a little warmer eh! Wonder if that could be combined with the 50% off!? :astonished:

I stand corrected. I was looking more into airport trips, and even then the difference is not so big.

Deal or not i refuse to ever use a black cab living in London. After a few pints in the pub one evening I could not be bothered walking or getting a bus back from Hammersmith boradway to my house, asked a black cab how much to my hour and he said about £18... Gave me great pleasure getting my phone out and booking an Uber right in front of the black cab driver which arrived in less than a minute and cost only £5.
Uber is amazing, and has never let me down yet!

Lovely, and how is this relevant to this deal? 50% off makes it much cheaper to use mytaxi than Uber will ever be. You don't even need to hand a tip to the driver, everything is done through the mytaxi app.

Black Cabs are trying (& failing) to catch up with Uber. They're a dying breed only used by tourists and rich folk. Uber is cheap and accessible for all I feel.
To be fair though that's one guy that's got through out of thousands. Point is that black cab drivers are much more thoroughly checked and licenced. They spend years and thousands learning their trade and know any complaints will be investigated. They display their licences. They have a big comeback if they mis-behave in any way.
With Uber feels like I could register in a weekend bet there is hardly any checks and can rent a car and be out on the road with nothing but google maps or a cheap sat nav in a week. Wouldn't be surprised if people share cars and any identification cards given.
If you get complaints guess can change to the other uber syle competitors. Know which service i would rather have my daughter use.

Clearly this guy has never even used an Uber, or looked into how they work beofre spouting rubbish on an online forum. Their drivers are vetted and full DBS checks are done. The same DBS check that would be needed if you wanted to go and look after the elderly, the young or vulnerable for a living.
Talk of sharing ID cards?? That is utter s***e. For a start they do not have ID cards, and you see a photo of them in the app so you know exactly what your driver will look like.

What could have made this a good deal is if the OP had posted the £10 off voucher on the MyTaxi website:
