I think this is a great shame as a friend of mine who regularly used them says they knock spots off the other operators, and all apparently without any public subsidy.

The lack of public subsidy might very well be the trouble - in their statement, the spokesperson said (basically) that they're ceasing operations on 28th January because they can't see any way that the company will ever make a profit. They haven't gone bust, just getting out before it all gets horrible, I suppose. A great shame, as you said. It's a pity that TOCS can't get by merely by being efficient and user-friendly, so to speak.
