    I've used them in Europe and similar services and other states of Aus (not legal in SA :-)) In short I love it. I have known a few drivers. There is various rules you must comply with similar to cabs.

    yeah ive used them a couple of times. one problem though, i ordered one once, the bloke never showed and i got charged for a fare. when i queried it with uber (which is a really convoluted process) they worked out from my phone tracking and his that i definitely didnt get in the uber and old mate had just picked up someone else up mistakenly thinking it was me.

    they are cheaper and much easier than a taxi tho, for example, i was at rugby, and wanted to goto the bottle-o. the bloke picked me up waited outside for me while i got some booze and then took me back to rugby and it cost me $9.50, it would have been at least a $20 cab fare i reckon.
    I got red dust in my veins.

    [QUOTE it cost me $9.50, it would have been at least a $20 cab fare i reckon.[/QUOTE]

    costs about $20 just to get into a Taxi these days lol hopefully my 50% off card comes pretty soon,
    Usually $50 just to get to the hospital, I now have my local taxi drivers number, he must do
    off line jobs. Maybe its worth using Uber well at least once to see the savings.
    Go figure my computer doesn't even recognize Uber as a word yet, lol
