Hello, I was thinking of doing some taxing at evening and weekend to make some extra money.
But i have no license and have not done it before, I have looked on line but can not seem to find any info on how to get started. Also I have seen that it could take 20 weeks for a hackney license.
Could anyone tell me the best and quickest way to get started please.
I would idealy like to do airport pickups at evening and weekend.
I would really appreciate any help in the right direction.
Many thanks in advance

Talk about being nice.

I would suggest trying private hire for a few weeks before you make the jump into hackney carriage.
