Ubers rates are £1.50 base + £1.10 per mile + 10p per minute with a minimum fare of £3.00. If it surges the final price is multiplied by the surge. It's worth pointing out that surges don't last very long in Glasgow and only ever happen at peak times (rush hour and weekend nights) and very rarely go above around 1.6 ish. Most surges flash off after about half an hour, so unless in a hurry just check back on the app a while later and the price will have stabilized.

Network Private Hire are £3.30 from getting in the car up to the first full mile, then its £1.20 per mile thereafter.

I don't know the rates of all PH companies, but they all work the same way (base rate for 1 mile then x.xx thereafter).

Black hacks are a little complicated and I don't know the most up to date prices, but the most recent I can find is:

£2.80 starting price for a journey up to 895 yards or 172 seconds, then 20p for each additional 186 yards or 38 seconds

(plus unsociable hours charge which is £2.40 from 00.30 to 06.30 Saturday and Sunday, or £1 from 00.00 to 06.00 all other nights)

(plus a 10p per person charge for journeys where more than two people travel)

(plus possible boundary charges for journeys going out of the city at a rate set by the driver)
