Private Car Services, including
all our drivers and vehicles, are fully licensed by the PCO
(Public Carriage Office), which is part of TfL
(Transport for London). TfL is a functional body of the Greater
London Authority.
The role of the PCO includes the licensing of all private hire services,
which amongst others include chauffeured vehicles, London black taxis
and minicabs following the introduction of the Private Hire Vehicles
(London) Act 1998. The purpose of regulation is to give passengers
confidence, when they use a licensed private hire operator, that they
are dealing with an honest and professional organisation with reliable
drivers and safe vehicles.
Don’t put yourself at risk. When booking a vehicle, make sure
you are dealing with a licensed firm. If you don’t know the firm’s
operator licence number, ask them for it and check it at the PCO website.
To check the validity of our licence, please click

the PCO.
Once you are at the PCO’s website, you can
check our licence in one of three ways:
- Enter our company name ‘Private Car Services’ or
- Enter our registered telephone number ‘07919653725’ or
- Enter our licence number ‘03728’
We are committed to your absolute safety. Not only are we legally
bound by regulations, we also have an ethical duty in ensuring all
our vehicles are of the highest standard and that all our chauffeurs
are fully insured for the purpose of hire and reward.
