Booking system switched off - and back on again - unexpectedly

A taxi driver on the Isle of Man says he, and other colleagues with the Telecabs firm, want answers over an issue which saw the booking system suspended.

Late on Friday night, (5 June), a message was sent to drivers saying it would be 'switched off' at midnight and 'remain unavailable until further notice'.

It was short-lived with the system reinstated by midday on Saturday (6 June).

Dave Mackey, who drives for the company which is owned by Opul, says they've heard very little since and customers want answers:

Manx Radio has contacted Telecabs and Opul for further comment.

The Department for Enterprise said: "[The department] became aware of the news on Friday evening regarding Telecabs and subsequently made contact with the company.  

"We understand that the matter has been resolved and the business continues to operate as usual."
