Uber lose license operate london

Yes, Uber has lost its license to operate in London after the city's transportation regulator, Transport for London (TfL), declined to renew its license due to concerns over safety and security.

In November 2019, TfL announced that it would not be renewing Uber's license to operate in London, citing concerns over the company's approach to reporting serious criminal offenses, as well as its treatment of passengers and drivers. The regulator also raised concerns over the company's use of unlicensed drivers and its failure to properly report incidents to the police.

Uber appealed the decision, but in June 2020, the company's appeal was rejected by the UK's transport regulator, the Traffic Commissioner. As a result, Uber's license to operate in London expired on June 30, 2020.

However, Uber has continued to operate in London despite losing its license, citing a loophole in the law that allows it to continue operating while it appeals the decision. The company has also launched a new service called "Uber London" which is operating under a new license.

The dispute between Uber and TfL has been ongoing for several years, with both sides accusing each other of being unreasonable. The issue has also sparked a wider debate about the regulation of the ride-hailing industry and the balance between innovation and safety.
