ANGRY St George Cabs drivers are involved in a row with the company that provides their radio system.

Drivers have staged two protests over concerns that they are missing out on business because of new radios provided by Taxis Combined Services (TCS).

More than 100 St George drivers congregated outside TCS's premises in O'Riordan Street, Alexandria, from 11am today for a sit in protest.

Yesterday morning about 90 drivers gathered outside St George head quarters in Vanessa Street, Kingsgrove.

They say the new system has left customers stranded because the St George drivers are not receiving messages to pick them up.

Bosses of St George Cabs and TCS have been locked in meetings today to discuss the issue.

So far they have been unavailable for comment.
