Can anyone advise me off somebody in Sheffield who we can trust to do us some work ??? I need a few jobs doing namely a kitchen extractor hood fitting, a cooker gas supply moving and some tiling,,,, who to call ? Too many rip off merchants I'm afraid of ?!?!?!?! HELP

If you read the article you will see that the problem is unlicensed drivers,however in the UK all the drivers are licensed with the local authorities and stringent proofs have to be shown before any driver can work for uber!!! So I think it may be just a puncture rather than the wheels falling off!!!!!!!

City doing my head in !!!!! A bit late now with all this pizza marketing crap, uber have got em on the ropes big time !!!! City if your reading this just be a good old taxi company !!!!!! ---------- Post added 27-06-2015 at 20:22 ---------- 7.00am I get message from city !!!!!

No not sarcastic just realistic!

Don't just blame buses! Go and tell those people in the so called beauty shops opposite KFC who blatantly park in the bus stop pull in lay-bys all day ! They don't give a s!!t for the buses and City Rd is blocked when the bus can't get in

As if drivers let others use their cabs without license or insurance !!!! So stupid some people

Vegas has a brain I see ! Of course a credit note would have been offered and anyone thinking different ? Why wouldn't a driver offer one? Did the passenger refuse one ? 120 is every five to ten mins in frequency ,if the people watched her to bus stop then surely they could have been around to help ,and come on people at 17 years old that's adult in the eyes of the law (UK) I bet the driver can tell a very different story here.

As the dragons say "I'm out"

There are no public service vehicles anymore I have just checked, drivers have p.c.v licenses which are passenger carrying vehicles,seems a lot allegedly was said and I bet the driver might have something to say on this if he knew,we cannot judge this on one sided account only,I don't agree with people using social media as kangaroo court either! Where will this end ? In my opinion it ended as the bus drove away as you/we will never get to the bottom of what really happened

I don't think we've worked out exactly what fare was asked for or why !!!!!! None of this adds up,something isn't right with this ????? Why would a driver not offer a credit voucher ?? Strange! Maybe he did and she didn't want one?? I've experienced people say no when I've been travelling on a bus,after a little digging I found out that stagecoach have £20 float and first have £ 5 float ! What should a driver do when it's all gone and a passenger will not accept a voucher ( credit ) ? Can't see how it's his/her fault,I always have coins when I go for the bus/tram and if I hadn't I would have to accept a credit voucher so what's the big deal ?????

Let's hang him or get IS to chop his head off !!!!! A bit harsh I hear...... Let's just see ? Firstly there's two sides to every story and that's what this is as its second hand and not from the complainant themselves,now are we to read that this girl is all girly and too young to be out alone at this time ? Or is she an adult going about her business and because she hasn't got her own way she went crying to her dad with crocodile tears!!!! I smell a rat here on this one definately

Can't see where it says it's uber????? In the listings ??

I am that indeed ! As I say who wants to listen to the bu::::it you drivers talk and stink too !!! Come on robots

Yes it's all true !!!! We should welcome competition not ridicule it, OH and you did reply ! Lmfao ---------- Post added 16-06-2015 at 16:25 ---------- Oh and as for robots driving us around well the sooner the better !! I've had some really stinky city drivers and I even gave feedback on one occasion as every time he spoke to us we had to restrain from vomiting as the stench from his mouth was like he had eaten something dead !!! On top of the B.O too . But city never replied !!!!!!!!!!!! Come on robots I say

The thing with city taxis is they priorertise the work with all credit/account work first to be covered and cash is always second ! This is because they deduct up to 15percent from drivers account jobs as an admin fee as against cash jobs earn city nothing !!!!! It's the nhs work that's big for city and a real big earner in deductions from drivers so uber don't undertake account work so will easily pick up and cover all the Sheffield folk as priority so give uber your business and support

City are definitely running scared!! Managers and shareholders are using uber themselves to catch out their own drivers working on both companies!! My best friend works at City and it's all they talk about UBER !!!all weekend the bosses were in the office at night and even in town watching the uber cars to check they aren't their drivers !!

Apparently the guy was drunk and tried to kick the bus as it went by and slipped and fell under the back wheels!! The driver had recently returned to work after receiving treatment for cancer !!!! So sad

Cyclone I'm sorry but I'm not blind but I do see a high percentage of commuting cyclists disobey traffic lights ( majority) I appreciate you do obey red lights etc but I can only comment on what I experience and that is over the last 27 years as a professional driver on the roads of Sheffield.i have on my license catorgory for car/ motorcycles/ pcv

I drive buses around Sheffield and I am one of the better drivers before we start having a go at buses , but I get the common opinion from cyclists that it's their right of way and whether it puts them in danger or not they're putting themselves there!!! I am a motorcyclist too so I do always look for them when pulling away e.t.c but majority of cyclists do not observe red lights or stop signs and even undertake vehicles risking their lives!!!! Only my views of what I see nothing against any road users

City taxis management have a like it or lump it attitude and they know drivers have less options as they buy up all the opposition,these drivers are getting less and less for their extortionate radio rental fees with city now focused on account work and deducting up to 15 percent on top of their radio rents,drivers have no where to turn and are forced to work up to 80 hours a week to earn a living,they are ruled with an iron fist I am reliably informed,some drivers are in talks with a union at present but aren't sure how many will join, they would only have to strike for a few days and city taxis would fold as its a very brittle industry but the drivers are too selfish to understand and don't realise how much power they have ---------- Post added 30-04-2015 at 20:27 ---------- .i think network taxis will do well now

Uber have the Sheffield taxis running scared, oh dear ! So the greedy operators in Sheffield have competition at last,it's the drivers who will suffer due to insufficient work from their operators SHEFFIELD CITY TAXIS LTD...it's about time if you ask me ! The shareholders of CITY all live the high life in their big fancy houses and drive around in cars such as Porsche and Mercedes whilst their self employed drivers scratch around struggling for work doing 70 hours a week plus !!!!! COME ON UBER let's shake em up and give the hard working drivers in Sheffield an alternative instead of CITY who are slowly but surely monopolising this industry in Sheffield

Wow I can't beleive how this changed ??? I was on this bus and I saw quite a different event! The pass holder wasn't prepared to listen to anything being sAid to him by the driver and was very stubborn,in my opinion he was under the influence of alcohol and quite arsey with the driver (because his team had lost ?) the driver explained clearly and offered to call management but it was falling on deaf ears I'm afraid,as for taking photos well I don't want people taking photos of me legal or illegally at least out in the street we can have a choice but not on a bus please !!!!! Bus drivers do a very difficult job with awkward people and circumstances and they are solely in charge of that vehicle and passenger saferry and its my guess the pass holder would have had difficulty with his pass previously and ought to change his pass for future problem free trAvel..
