A cyclist friend recommended I try using Zingo taxis.

I had a blank when I rang them.
The website does not load.

Have they disappeared?

I wouldn't be surprised.

I tried the service once and got through to a driver almost
immediately. I wanted to go East from WC1 and he was trying to go West
towards Heathrow (apparently where he lived).

Being a fair person, I accepted his offer of being "put back into the
system" to await the next nearest driver. 15 mins later and I was
still waiting, so I went into the street and found a cab within
seconds.
