Whistle Taxi App
- rusk 9y agoHailo was a really brilliant App and service that connected independent drivers with their customer base in a manner very similar way to Uber does, except they did so within the existing marketplace to the advantage of both customers and drivers. It worked really well and made ordering taxis around Dublin a dream. Sadly they were taken over by a poorer competitor called "MyTaxi" who have proceeded to torpedo the whole business. I wonder if they had some interest in Ubers success because really until now Uber were effectively redundant here. Anyway, since there should be no clear impediment to somebody doing something similar, since there is a ready and willing customer base I'd be wondering why nobody had yet. Hopefully these guys can do it.
