Some people are malcontents.
I reckon it's closer to 99.9% (myself excluded) in the Taxi world and don't forget about Misantropy and Lunacy both hovering in the high 90% of Irish Taxi drivers.

My cousin has removed all TAT advertising from his vehicle in protest that he strongly believes that work is being stitched up, a sentiment felt by a lot of other drivers in an online social media platform.

Has anyone heard similar?
When you state above; "a sentiment felt by a lot of other drivers in an online social media platform".

Could you please post a link to that online social media platform ?
I'll ask him what chat group was involved Ken, back to you soon.

Having used the app as a punter twice while the car was off the road I've no complaints. Good service.

The cuz tore off all his TAT decals having been convinced work was being stitched up.

It may be that he was impetuous, I don't know. But having drank the Kool Aid and joining TAT, posting up pictures of the vehicle and clothing branded materials, it appeared to be a quick turnaround to justifying his obvious dissatisfaction.

As Jack says "There'll always be malcontents".

TBH, €300 or so investment isn't that much in the grand scheme of things.

Thought there was no commission.
Just a sub of 120 bucks a month.
They have ads on the local radio stations here.

Maybe he means the €120 (or €30/week) = ~6% of his takings?  So he's hinting he's making ~€500/week off TaT?  And the harder you work, the smaller the €30/week becomes as a percentage of your takings?
