When my partner and I arrived in Aarhus, the second-biggest city in Denmark, we assumed we could grab an Uber to our new home. There we were, phones out, Uber app loading and … nothing. Where there’s usually a map, the screen was blank.
We checked Didi and same deal. Too tired to continue searching, we wandered to the nearest taxi rank and hopped in a cab.
Uber operated in Denmark for just three years before exiting the market.
Within days, we realised what we had thought was a temporary app crash was actually something else entirely: there are no rideshare........
