C4.33 Taxis and Ride-Hailing in the UK

Taxi Phone Numbers in Major UK Cities
You can book taxis using apps like Uber, Bolt, Gett, or Chinese taxi services.
Most taxis in the UK are different from those in many other countries. They are not the usual small cars with 2 seats at the front and a row at the back, but rather distinctive ones with only the driver at the front and facing seats at the back, totaling 4-5 seats. "Taxi" is also called "cab" in English, and both terms are used in the UK.
Kind Reminders from Shishengmiao:

  1. Remember to carry cash, as not all taxis accept card payments. Most do, though—you can ask in advance when calling.

  2. When dialing a UK taxi number from another country, use the UK country code +44 (e.g., +44 123321123). If you’re calling within the UK, just add a 0 at the beginning instead of +44. For example, if the original number is +44 123123321, you can dial 0123123321 directly within the UK.

London (L)
London’s most common black taxis (Black Cabs) are an iconic symbol of the city, famously dating back to the 17th century—though they were horse-drawn carriages back then. Horse-drawn carriages still exist in the UK (and many European countries) as tourist attractions. Drivers must hold licenses, some of which have been passed down since the 19th century, making them over 100 years old (as of 2019) and almost like antiques.
London’s Black Cabs are manufactured by the London EV Company in Coventry, UK. Much like New York’s iconic yellow taxis (all uniformly yellow), Black Cabs are synonymous with their city—though London also has other types of taxis besides black ones.
Shishengmiao notes that when in London, if you take the tube or buses, you’re likely to ride double-decker buses (including open-top ones) that let you enjoy the city’s beautiful scenery. However, UK buses don’t announce stops—you need to press the bell in advance to get off, otherwise the bus won’t stop. London taxis are very expensive; a Black Cab can carry up to 5 people plus some luggage.
Below are the phone numbers of major UK taxi companies. Please check the regional notes—note that not all operate across the entire London area:

Shishengmiao reminds that all the London taxis listed above are licensed by Transport for London (TfL). Therefore, if you lose any items in a taxi, you can report the loss to TfL. Besides taxis, you can also report lost property for London Underground and buses via TfL through the following methods:

  1. Call the general hotline: 0343 222 1234. Note that the lost property number may vary depending on the specific transport mode—for example, for trams, the Underground and buses, you need to call the respective operators directly.

  2. Submit a loss report form via TfL’s official website: https://tfl.gov.uk/forms/12411.aspx.

  3. Report the loss in person at a customer service centre. The address of the customer service centre is:

Coventry (C)

Taking a taxi in Coventry is quite affordable, and I mostly get around by taxi. They are readily available in areas like the city centre and train stations, and you can also book one. For trips to airports, I always book a Chinese taxi as it’s cheaper—around £30 to Birmingham Airport and approximately £75 to Heathrow Airport.
