I've never ordered a minicab that offered any kind of real-time
feedback about when it was going to arrive.

Really? All my local firms do, either allowing GPS tracking via their
app, or if you ordered by telephone you get a text message when the
vehicle is allocated, giving you time to get your shoes on ready etc,
and another when it is a short distance away, allowing you to walk out
of your front door near enough straight into the vehicle.

While I appreciate you live in a more rural area than I

The last time I ordered a minicab was when living in Nottingham within
the last 5yrs.

, I'm surprised any firms still exist not providing those facilities.
The text service has existed round here for well over 10 years, the
apps for about a year or two.
