Czech Republic
Prague taxis are very shady, and should be taken as a last resort - there's plenty of public transport (but always buy a valid ticket). If you have to take a taxi, order one from AAA. They are the most honest and reliable I found in the city, and they have English speaking dispatchers. Just tell them where you are and they'll send a taxi, normally within 10-15 minutes.

Triple A taxis, or to give the full name of the company, AAA, is the best, most reputable service in the city. When you arrive at the airport, dial 14014, they speak English, will tell you when the car will arrive, and where to wait. To the centre should cost around 500kč - 12 pounds. They are the choice of expats and natives alike.
