The Biggest Bilk in History?....By Travis B

Drivers who have a livery agreement with Taxi Media are becoming increasingly concerned that the payments (low as they are!) are in many cases weeks overdue and Taxi Media Accounts can only make vague promises such as 'should be with you by mid December'.

There is now real concern about what is going to happen. When Taxi Media was part of Clear Channel Communications ( a worldwide outfit) driver were paid 'on the nail' but change of ownership seems to have altered things.

Taxi Media are the people in partnership with the LTDA for the 'Hands Up' Livery campaign. Let us all hope its not the Drivers 'Hands Up' surrendering their monies due!

Editorial comment...
The Anderson Shelter did try to contact Taxi Media for a statement, but was told although there were managers in the office, none were available for comment.

While we are in the area of "No comments" I would like to bring to your attention, the continuing saga of the LTDA's claim that they have 9000 members paying subscriptions.
It has been suggested that statistics are being inflated by members who have left or even died, but are still on the books at Woodfield Road and no charge Knowledge Boys.

So a large list of ex members has been compiled.

Next a member was asked to phone up and make an appointment to scrutinise the books that the LTDA say are open to every member.
After spending all day on the phone and constantly being told to "Call back later, as there is no one available to deal with this query", our member finally called it a day.
