Yes, from a local TV interview with several taxi drivers complaining of the lack of a level playing field in financing taxis and maintaining them. Sharia loans were specifically mentioned, and drivers who used them were not denying the practice.
Plus "hot-seating" of taxis by unlicensed drivers to keep them on the road for as many hours as possible.
Unmetered trips were also talked about and proven to happen on longer journeys.
Uber had it's first bad press here when someone was charged over £30 for a 3 mile trip due to "GPS problems".
