Fare low is one, most tulan is......... it come with highest cost.

Only Singaporean are that naive to allow people to squeeze until like tat.

I don't agree that 12.20 can get you this far in Singapore

If based on optimal conditions, no peak, no surcharges, no stopping at traffic light, no waiting , no booking, non limo / premier cab, etc

S$12.20 can only go max max 17km, the report anyhow hamtum

but in reality , sometimes S$12.20 can't even go 2km

(Calculation is Base on the lousiest veh, toyota crown 1st km 3.00, every subsequent 400m 22 cents till 10km , after 10km jump 22cents after 350m

1st km S$3.00 next 9km 22.5jump * .22 = S$4.95, next 7km 20jump x .22 = S$4.40)

Fully agreed with this.

Especially the part in red above

Tripadvisor is a net hotel operator, if you book them, you will find it more expensive than you book it yourself. And to make them looking more brighter and confident, they will do this statistic and that statistic without even doing an in depth empirical survey that can stretch for years, just asking taxi companies is not an empircal statistic. Therefore, not accurate and nonsensical.

Even if you sue them, they had clearly said, this is only an information base on taxi companies, not them. They should better advice on the trip than on taxi fares. lols

It is part of tripadvsior business tactic to protray their image as a knowledged one, which is actually, rubbish.

I agree with the report.

That's why TDs in Singapore are so poor things and got to work 18 hrs a day just to survive..So, pax must be more understanding.
