Couple of days back had an advance booking @ chu yen st. Dun wish to mention race of pax, in case is sensitive to some. It was a replacement taxi for this pax. And pax refused to pay for advance booking fee when on board the taxi. Reason being it is a replacement taxi. As the original taxi did not come. I do not know why this pax can came up with this type of reason to avoid paying advance booking fee. Really sick to pick this type of pax.

Dun pay booking charge can, walk out and flag other cab lor....

What happened, then?

I started this thread so as to ask bros question using 1 thread rather than creating multi thread.

1st, bros i need ur opinion and what will u do, pls input.

My friend went for an advance booking at PanPac Suite Somerset at 8am. Pax was late and came down at 8.10am. Told my friend he going 20 upp circular road. Upon reaching, my friend missed the 1st turn to upp circular rd, so he turned at carpenter st. He panic and called me saying dunno how to go. So i told him to cut thru the open carpark. But he missed again n turn to hongkong st. Eventually, he make a turn back n reached 20 upp circular road. Now the turning point is, pax (Indian) dun want to pay the fare of $18. He said he is late due to my friend not knowing the destination and wanna complaint. His appt time is 8.15am.

My question is, can he just walk away n not pay?

Get a Garmin GPS.

If pax never pay anything, your friend should complain to the company which gave him the booking.

Why your friend so stupid that he cannot post this himself?

PS2U SG

Tks for all bros for the inputs. I really appreciate it. Be it positive or negative. Each n everyone is entitled to his or her view. And I wish to clarify that I'm not pin-pointing to any race or person. If I do make u feel so, then I apologise here. Sorry Bro PS2U.

But every race got their fare share of lousy pax. Be it chinese, malay, indian angmo, there bound to be some nasty.ones. I accept every comment with open mind n heart. I believe more in inner self. If u think positive, then positive. If negative then it will be. And I saw CDG mentioned here, but my initial thread there isn't CDG mentioned.

To conclude, we human interpret things differently. Just like Bro poolman started a thread on which taxi stand u hate most. Some say this, some say that. So is still individual.

My statement might not be accepted by all, as one person cannot satisfy all.

Thanks once again.

Agree with you bro. Don't stereotype a particular race, because of "ONE" Incident.

I am a Terminated CDG driver because passenger complain of wrong routes. all complains were from Chinese passengers,.Malay and Indian passengers always direct me properly.

PS2U SG

I have also taken bookings from Indians. Use GPS to go there. Reach there, tell them I am new and must use GPS. No complaints from them.

Most of my complaints are from Chinese Females. I am sacked by CDG because of these complaints.

Tzarh SG

So PS2U u not gonna drive anymore? finance wise shoudl be stable then...or maybe just maybe drive relief instead ?

I don't know which company you are driving for..........

If CDG, usually for replacement taxi, unless is very last min, operator will call you up and inform, and it suppose to be a current call..........

Replacement for advance call more than 30min in advance, drivers won't know, and we charge according to MDT shown, no reason pax will be angry, as long any cab arrive on time..........

A few times, my encounter is such, receive current job, operator call and inform replacement for advance job, also will advise if pax refuse to pay even the current job rate, CDG will reimburse back to my account, advise me don't argue with pax, obviously this pax kanna shoot aero plane by the othe TD.............

Without any clarification, pax refuse to pay booking charges, call driver hot line straight away.............

Never such thing that CDG will replace a last min cab with advance booking rate........

Rbs70 SG

We pay call levy to CDG...........

They MUST protect us.............

Wantaxi SG

Tks RBS for the reply. That's isn't any last minute changes. Just that, everything was on time and the pax reason is, change cab number then no advance charge. We also work according to the MDT prompt. We won't anyhow argue also. To me, arguement goes no where. Might as well think of a better things to do.

I'm a newbie abt 8mths on the road. I like 1 type of food. "PIE". I always eat that. It bring me a long way. I'm in the forum to rant. I accepted and understand most bros posting with a open heart and mind.

Bro Techno, coy spoke to him n he LL also got to pay. It is the mentality of a person. It is how we perceived things. It is always 2 sided.

What no reason pax will be angry, once i took over a replacement with more than half an hour mdt call from cdg, I called cdg operator, she said replacement can charge $8.

But when pax saw my crown and plate nos different, tho he knew but he straight away said no advance booking, then called cdg on why send a crown and a clown driver. I lan lan, slowly slowly drive him to AP with a smiling face, then he gets quite annoyed and asked what so funny? So I told him, a clown alway smile.

bowah SG

We pay call levy to CDG...........

They MUST protect us.............

Protect you? levy is not protection money leh, you have the right not to take calls, options are there for you, protect you for what, they rather protect themselves, their paxs and their shareholders than to protect you??

YOu think levy is insurance ar?

bowah SG

Tho every race have their fair shares of lousy pax, but in everything, there is alway a bigger and smaller shares of it, and as for race, there is a particular race (no offence) that do not flavour TDs, and if you will to do a empirical survey over it, I think the result can tell you the unfaireness within the fairness is real.

Humans intrepretation can be different, but there are also many commons in humans or almost common in a sense, and because of different views, there tends to be lots of debates and arguement, can be healthy and unhealthy, the commons lies within our common daily routines of life, wait up, brush teeth, drink kopi, start driving, mid day or after peak, rest for a break, so and so and when you come to chat about paxs at Kopitiam, this common issue of certain pax will be brought up, which end up with a common intrepretation that lead toward that particular race.

Ohyaitsme SG

Wat if

u bidded sucessfully advance to AP. from lorong chuan

but once pax on board change destination, instead to SG flyer

call cantfark tell them off?

Rbs70 SG

What no reason pax will be angry, once i took over a replacement with more than half an hour mdt call from cdg, I called cdg operator, she said replacement can charge $8.

That's why farking Comfort no cow brain...........

Si mi si 龙配龙, 凤配凤................advance job confirm and cancel by Sonata, reassign Sonata la............they just want to get things easy way out...........

Of course I drive Mercedes cab last time, replacement cab, pax laugh until teeth also come out..........knn suppose to pay $8 sit sampan, now pay only $2.30/$3.30 sit Mercedes..........

Last time, my client told me, approximately 1 out of about 50 calls than kanna Mercedes Cab...........so sometime heng heng tio Mercedes, either current or advance, happy like fark..........than cb Mercedes cancel job, reassign Crown or Sonata.........if I also angry..........heng become sway, spoilt people mood............

But no matter what, a call is a call...........refuse to pay, po mata la..........we very good on this..........lol

Rbs70 SG

YOu think levy is insurance ar?

When money involve..........don't fark around with me...........

CDG support us with jobs not free of charge, we took their jobs also must bear the levy cost.............

So when a deal is strike..........Comfort better honour their words..........

That's why last time those operators mending driver hot line damn scare to see my number(they got caller ID one), if pick up, nothing good, if don't pick up, my email sent very fast 1, usually CC to Mr Yang too(he like to read email mah).............

So pax kwai lang.........company deal with them, pax refuse to pay booking charges...........company deal with them............

Pax still don't pay, make sure company reimburse me..............Sometime double booking, 2 taxi arrive at the same spot with same booking, I will let the other driver carry on the job, BUT Comfort must reimburse me the booking fee, ie $8/$18(Merc) for advance, $2.30/$3.30/$10(Merc) for current............no such thing, waste my time 1..............

Want to drive CDG long..........a lot of things to learn 1..............

As long rejection not from your mouth..........meaning call driver hot line(this line is recorded) and tell them my VIP arrive at this time, that's why bid the job, how can suka suka change destination............

Make sure operator is the one to let you go............

If you refuse to carry on the trip at your own expenses...........than God Blesses You............

Bro Techno, coy spoke to him n he LL also got to pay. It is the mentality of a person. It is how we perceived things. It is always 2 sided.

Bro........1 thing I drive taxi don't see colour 1............

Smlj pax, smlj colour also have 1.............

And I learn 1 thing very hard..........save my saliva on any type of pax............my saliva only use it to deal with my company I'm driving with...............

Company despatch limousine job..........arrived, pax say go by meter...........argue with him?.........no, no ,no.........call company.........until everybody happy, than I carry on the trip............don't ever think wasting time or what, what need to be done, need to be done.............anyway, this kind of situation not everyday issue la, spent some of my precious time to make company work.............is very worth it............
