On 22nd Sept 2017, Transport for London (TfL) ruled against a new operating licence for Uber in the City of London. As a result, 40,000 drivers will no longer be able to operate in the city, and it's customer base will be forced to use alternative ride-sharing apps or pay the dreaded Black Cab fare.
