247 Cars: 5000 Jobs in one day

Saturday 29th June 2019 saw us complete more than 5000 jobs for the first time.  We have been advertising heavily, but more importantly, we used the “nearest car” dispatch method from 1pm until the early hours of Sunday morning.

As many of you know we already use “nearest car” in the morning, after Friday Prayer and at late Friday and Saturday nights.

We will be extending this “nearest car” dispatch method at the following times:

After 12pm on Saturdays until 1am Sunday morning

12pm until 6pm on Sunday afternoons

3pm – 6pm Monday to Friday

This will cover jobs more effectively and give you less dead mileage.

IMPORTANT NOTE: We will also switch the “nearest car” on temporarily whenever we have:

  1. Shortage of Drivers (Like Eid)
  2. Special Events
  3. Where there is less than a quarter of driver free and clear
  4. Any other time where it is busy and there are more than 20 jobs waiting

Finally, please note that these measures have been put in place to improve standards and our service to you and the passengers you pick up.   We continue to investigate avenues of further investment.
