DYK Hackney cabs must accept your fare, even for short journeys. If a hackney cab refuses to take you, report their licence number to [email protected] and we'll investigate #SaferTaxiTravel @SafeNottm
@MyNottingham@weneedsafertaxi @mytaxiuk A new permit scheme to enter the city centre is being worked on using ANPR and this will ensure everyone behaves (irrespective of who you are licensed with) or face losing the permit. No permit - no enter (ANPR enforced).
Scam Alert
People receiving calls claiming to be HMRC requesting payments to act on their behalf for tax rebates and refunds. HMRC never e-mail or phone for personal information. HMRC have confirmed this is a scam.
Anyone experiencing such calls contact [email protected]
@NCCLicensing@passenger_first@Rushcliffe If the CPO'S has the delegated powers to prosecute these drivers who are not allowed to ply for hire in Nottingham why don't they take action on Rushcliff & Gedling because they are putting public safety at risk @GedlingBC@Rushcliffe need to take action.

@RobinHoodNottz They’ve been offered a wrap to go with the new colour policy. If they had got it done in time, they would been involved 😃. Don’t see what the issue is anyway.
