u ever ask for discount for taxi fare?

crimean SG

eg. fare is $7.10 or $7.20 or $7.30, u ask the driver if u can pay $7.

or u realized he went a long way to ur destination, n u got pissed n so when reach ur destination, u demand a discount.

or u tell him a pitiful story about how poor u are....

so u people ever tried any of these before? did it work? got how much discount?

HyuugaNeji SG

its because some taxi drivers double standard and give discount. Now i find it a hassle when the cost is x dollars and 10cents or 20cents.

Ya once. Last year when i took a silvercab from Ang Mo Kio back home , the meter was $13.60 but i only got $13.30 , the driver say never mind so i gave him the $13.30.

A few days agao , when i took the peugeot partner cab from Sengkang , SH2563L , back home , the fare was $16.70 , i gave the driver $20 but ask him for $3 change only , coz i'm giving him $0.30 tips.

Some drivers if good they will round down fares but some they wont as they are earning a living too , they work so hard for every dollar & every cent for their living & for their family. This is what i could understand that although i used to talk to them but never get discount , i dont mind at all , this is a humanity , pay for services provided to you or for what you get.
