You are correct, mostly. UberPOP (which directly competed with taxi's) has been outlawed. The more expensive UberX has not. There's also UberBLACK, but that's more for business people.
What's really sorely needed is Uber outside of the Randstand region though. Taxi's are even more of a monopoly there so for consumers it's either pay up or get fucked, which results in horrible customer experiences.
- cbcoutinho 10y agoDepends where you are. Here in Friesland, the local public transportation company has made deals with taxis in the area to reduce/eliminate inaccessible places by offering cheap connections between (e.g. your house) to the nearest bus station. I use this service frequently if I don't want to drive, and it costs 1.50eu - the same trip if I were to just call a taxi would run 20eu.
