London black cabs now take cards. It’s law. It’s done. But approach with humor. Expect a reluctant machine. Expect a sigh. And expect a fascinating story to tell your friends back home.
“Oh, I paid by card in a London cab,” you’ll brag. “The driver used a machine so old, it had a floppy disk drive.” Okay, that’s not true. But it sounds good.
So go ahead. Hail that cab. Tap that card. And enjoy the ride. London’s waiting, and it definitely takes credit cards now. Just don’t forget the cash for that tip. Trust me.
