It was incredibly successful in the UK and Ireland. They explicitly pulled out of the US because it cost too much money for marketing.

I'm just bitter that a decent service got wiped out by a competitor setting VC money on fire.

If it was a decent service then it’d still be around. The market decided it wasn’t as useful as Uber.
