I sometimes go out in Dublin with friends of mine who live there. when getting a taxi to go to the gig or pub etc my friends nearly always order a taxi from Free Now. What is the best alternative to using them? id rather not support them and we prefer calling a taxi to flagging one down in the street on  a Friday or Saturday night as it seems impossible to get one that way.

..and when you're chatting up them Dublin birds, tell them the truth, your from Mayo not Galway!!

Oh....that's just shnakey!! lol

Support independents who can make their own decisions and are not afraid of responsibility.not people who need to be told what to do

The drivers are independent.
You have never worked a dispatch company so why all the grief towards them.

The drivers are and my bollox independent.the drivers who work with these companies are told what to wear ( uniforms) which they must pay for,they are told what to charge ( discounts ) offered at their expense,they are disciplined for steping out of line by being knocked off the system.they are only short of having to clock in and out.next they will have to book their fukin holidays in advance its quite laughable really rhat people who are supposed to be self employed allow themselves to be treated this way

I wouldn't chat Dublin birds up. usually stick to culchies like myself.  ::)


I would put my hand out if I thought I would get a taxi passing by, but it has always seemed a very hard thing to achieve in Dublin on Friday or Saturday night from 9 to 10.
