    This sounds mental as I hadn't heard of the scheme before now, but could you get off the taxi and order another from where you were to your final destination to get over preventing the double swiping...?

    I've been wondering this myself. Bizarrely the same taxi might agree to do the second part, but otherwise it would probably involve a long (potentially cold) wait sitting by the side of the road.

    If I manage to get this to work I'll let you all know.

    I've got an appointment in London next week, at 8 in the morning, so we're having to stay overnight because I was worried we might get stuck in traffic even if we leave mega early - so it's costing a fortune. :(

    I hope it goes well.

    Don't use metered taxis! Book a minicab instead - fixed fares, might be cheaper than using the taxicard discount?

    Just to add to that you can save money on taxis and minicabs fares by comparing local prices on catchacab.com
