Uber services suspended in Barcelona

Re:Uber services suspended in Barcelona by mrbanks on Friday February 01, 2019 @05:17AM (#19053022)

I recently worked in a smaller German city without Uber. It was like stepping back into the stone age.

'MyTaxi' app would only produce an available driver 1 in 20 times I tried.

The only way to get a taxi is to walk out into the freezing street and wait like a penguin, or find one of those random locations Taxis like to park at.

Sucks for the customer. I hope Uber takes over the planet.

Isn't the obvious way to get a taxi in a suburban/rural setting to (1) google "placename taxi" or ask around to find the phone number of local taxi firm (2) give them a call and wait inside for the cab?
