    My nephew got a Veezu taxi from town to Elsecar in early hours of Sunday and was quoted the ridiculous price of £30. Part way home and taxi driver said he wanted another £10. Nephew told him he had no more cash so driver offered to take him to a cash machine.
    Nephew declined offer and was made to get out of taxi at Hoyland Common.
    I would advise anyone travelling alone to be very wary of using Veezu
