  They were offering £20 even on referrals only a week ago. They must have reduced it with the launch of UberX.

  I used Uber X last night and it worked a treat. I had a £20 credit on my account. I signed up months ago out of interest, but the limo service didn’t appeal.

  The driver was pleasant, the car was clean and it cost less than the estimated fare. With the free credit my taxi home cost less than the train into London 😮

  The only issue is that there weren’t many cars in the area (Soho), so it may just have been luck that my car was within five minutes when I wanted to travel. I’d checked one hour earlier and there were no cars available.

  I used it today. Two of us going to Heathrow from the IC Park Lane cost just £37. Cheaper than the HEX which is a pain to get to from here.

  OK the IC Park Lane is very close to the Piccadilly line and I’d usually use that as it’s cheap, direct and journey time is fairly constant (checking for disruptions before leaving hotel), but in the current heat the thought of a direct door to door air conditioned service was much more appealing than the tube.

  I had £10 off so the effective price is £27 – even better!
