Three friends and I had booked a taxi at about 12:...

Three friends and I had booked a taxi at about 12:50, we waited outside our friends apartment and at 1:05 I called to see if the taxi was anywhere near picking us up. The woman on the phone was very rude and told me that she'd be sworn at by someone from my number so she'd cancelled my taxi (without telling me she had) then hung up. I was so confused at this point because I'd had my phone with me for the past 15 minutes and no one had had access to it, none of us were in the slightest bit drunk and I have a lock on my phone; the only calls I'd made were the one to book and the one to check where our taxi was! I was very confused so I phoned them back to ask them what they meant, and was told that a guy had sworn three times down the phone at them so they cancelled the taxi, without even letting us know. I have no idea what happened and the only thing I can think is that someone called from a similar address (as there was a group of boys around the corner from us throwing stones and being generally rowdy) and that they had sworn at the taxi company. I was very upset and confused, I understand that they wouldn't want to send a taxi somewhere if a driver would be given abuse, but I cannot even think how on earth anyone could have called them from my number! We called another taxi company and they were brilliant, dropped us home without any bother. I won't be using this taxi service again in fear of being accused of something I would never dream of doing. Thank you.
