After the decision of the court of Frankfurt, which chose to ban the Uber after the protest union of taxi drivers, the company said in a statement that increased by subscriptions in the last 24 hours.
On Tuesday, the Frankfurt court ruled that Uber can not circulate in the streets of Germany because their services are not in accordance with the laws of the country. Paradoxically, in the 24 hours following the decision, the Uber increased subscriptions, says in a statement sent to newsrooms.
The Uber presented itself as an alternative transport service, something that led to a strong reaction from the union of taxi drivers in Germany. For the court, the services provided by Uber does not meet the minimum safety standards, since the drivers of the cars are not accredited.
But Uber, comparing their numbers with the same period the week last, as the number of subscriptions throughout Germany is 3.6 times higher.
Only in Hamburg the number of subscriptions rose 590% in Berlin have been 270% more. In Frankfurt, the city where it was decided this measure, the increase is 228%. And it adds the fact that now appear in the top ten most downloaded apps in Germany.
Since yesterday, Uber was assured that it would continue to circulate their ‘taxi’ on German roads, despite run the risk of having to be fined over 25 million euros.
