Safe. Convenient. Affordable.
You know you’re safe when you get in a car booked through ubiCabs
We’ve taken a rigorous approach to ensuring the companies we work with are the best and safest companies around London. All our partner companies are licensed with the Public Carriage Office (PCO) and are fully insured. In addition, they all guarantee an exceptional level of service to customers.
We personally select our partner companies because your Safety is our priority. Our partners are fully licenced with the PCO, which means:
- Drivers have passed criminal record checks with the Criminal Records Bureau.
- Drivers have passed medical checks.
- Drivers hold valid EU driver’s licenses.
- All cars less than 5 years old; checked for safety every 6 months.
Things you can do to further ensure your safety:
- NEVER try to hail a minicab – by law all private hire vehicles (PHVs/minicabs) must be booked in advance with a licensed company (through our App, over the phone, or via internet or email).
- Licensed companies are required to record and report all passenger complaints about drivers and lost property- so if you have any problems, be sure to call the company about it.
- Try share a ride with friends when possible – it’s safer and cheaper!
- Make sure the driver is the same person sent by the company before you get in the car: ubiCabs sends you an SMS with this information once your booking is accepted.
- Ask a driver for their PCO license number, they are required to have it on them all the time.
- Text the driver’s name, License plate and make & model of the car to a close friend.
