GoKawiilHigh Court dismisses £340m black cab claims against Uber as time-barred
A High Court judge ruled that claims worth about £340m brought by roughly 13,000 London black cab drivers and two defunct private hire firms, Kabbie and Iride, were filed too late and dismissed them without examining the underlying allegations. The claimants had accused Uber of giving Transport for London misleading information when it first secured its operating licence in 2012. Mr Justice Birt found the claimants could have uncovered the alleged deception before 2018, putting the 2024 lawsuits outside the six-year limitation period.
