@EDI_Airport@edinburghpaper@Edinburgh_CC you really need to get rid of capital cars and get City Cabs real taxis back to t he airport rank . Absolute disgrace. Everyone overcharged too after waiting hours
How many of you are jumping into a taxi to head to an airport this week?
Unless @JennyGilruth @_KateForbes and @MathesonMichael step up then that could be a thing of the past.

At this festive time I hope @_KateForbes can find some financial help for the Taxi and Private hire trade. Our drivers and operators need as much help as possible. They are vital to our economy and to ensure our citizens get around safely.
Need your help @AngusRobertson. Taxi trade fed up with works vans parking in Frederick St Rank. Despite numerous complaints to @edinhelp & others, these vans refuse to move. We are not being taken seriously & being ignored. Can you use your influence.
@Edin_Licensing How exactly are you working through them when I applied on the 26th of June and heard nothing while others applying after that have been paid out? Please explain?
@Edin_Licensing As a guesstimate, between taxis and ph operators you will have something in the region of 3,500 licenses eligible and it has taken you around four weeks to process some 1400! This is something that was required months ago as financial help so when can we expect to be paid please?
@Edin_Licensing Still waiting 25/06 can you please tell me why it’s taking so long. People have been given there fund over a month ago. This needs to be sorted ASAP
@Edinburgh_CC, we've been advised that both @GlasgowCC & @DundeeCouncil have now paid out driver grants of £1,500 this week. When are you going to announce/pay out to Edinburgh taxi drivers. Come on @adamrmcvey, make this happen now.
Hearing that @GlasgowCC are paying out latest taxi grant of £1,500 today, which is great but what happened to the discretionary payment you promised to pay out? This latest payment from @scotgov should be in addition to the discretionary payment promised. You can't hide - pay up!
The Scottish Government has failed taxi operators and drivers. Forcing them to beg for support, and pushing them to a mental and financial cliff edge is disgraceful.
This has to end at tomorrow’s meeting @KateForbesMSP. Confirm an immediate payment date.
