Red5xx SG

Thought got one here said he alway sweep with white rubbish truck...........

Poolman SG

That $0.20 up in starting fare , also not enuf for me to pay for 7km trying to find the passengers in town .

Bo Call Liao SG

Night shift huat ? Think of day shifts .

It's not just CDG ..... as a whole .

wah now u start to think for day drivers ah? im so surprised leh. Your past posts all about night huat this huat. now change of mind?

Anyway my opinion is that this fare is justified. nothing to complain about.

The only people who will complain is that the pick and choose days are gone. go near? inside CBD , interview? i can imagine how many so called city cabs are suffering now having to go all sorts of places.

Take it as a challenge la , go ulu places and use all your skills to find another connecting trip lo :D

Poolman SG

It will be different if rental for Benz goes up to $155 per day .

Meaning $78 for half a shift ...... mine still only $68 haven't discount benefits .

I will be keeping my Wish for now .

Bo Call Liao SG

This fare adjustment really benefitted BCL and Komade...........

That's why both dunno why ah pool is making so many noise.....

i only huated for 1 day , my day driver got personal matters so i went on half shift.

This fare revision doesnt benefit me as well as i start from 11 pm onwards.

Komade will be the one benefiting the most :D

Red5xx SG

Bro Khoon,

Nite shift also earn less for those work from 5pm-5am type,,,,,

Do more trip earn same, but diseal cost up.....

Poolman SG

You talk like a saint.

You very different meh ?

What I said cannot convince ppl !

Your 老花眼 didn't wear glasses ah ?

I didn't compare merc taxi fare

I said CDG & Transcab

Mercabs SG

1st 10km,

Old meter - 10000/385 = 25.9x0.20 = $5.19

New meter-10000m/400=25x0.22 = $5.5

1st 10km is only $0.31 cent up....

follow every 5km :-

Old meter - 5000/330= 15.15x0.20 = $3.03

New meter- 5000/350=14.2 x 0.22 = $3.1

So you can see, after the 1st 10km, the difference for every 5km there after

is only up 0.07cent........

Bro, this is in theory.

Like I said I have proof that for a 12.8km trip from ORQ to AMK Ave 3 for CDG SONATA & TRANSCAB WISH, just the meter trip alone there's an increase, not much, even after I discounted the 20c increment in starting fare.

Mercabs SG

But anyway we cannot take views of Merc Cabbies 100% totally and convincingly , they hardly press meter one , what's there to analyse ?

I don't understand why so many issues from you.

Early 40s only and keep nagging about issues that you can't resolve.

Get on with life & just drive your taxi lah and watch your Liverpool & hopefully they can win the league in the coming years

hammerhammer8888 SG

This fare revision only benefit night shift nia....at least after 8pm no need so stress. Day shift really die cock stand. See how Khoon is doing this few days you will know. OBK whole week liao leh....

Poolman SG

Ya lor .... day shift so many people sms me taxi fare never increase , media and press kept saying fare hike , day shift where got hike ?

I tested , ya leh , day shift in fact is less leh . Something to share about .

When someone here said huat for night shift , actual fact , not much leh ... i did my best , 4pm to 12.30am , $260 ? Huat ? Sorry that's $20 more than normal for a Friday night .With 25% meter , i am sad .

Those huat people are all at night , of course huat , 6 hours peak hour , got think for our day shift counterparts ?

Media has not been fair . . .

I am Moderator . . . . i gave my views that is unfair that media and press emphasis fare hike , which did not happned for day shift , u read from first post until now .... will fully understand .

I have got nothing to resolve , i have got many day shft friends also , not only night shift .

First day TransCab fare hike , after 9am , many sms came to me , telling me , not true , what huat ?

Poolman SG

try what? like mercabs already said , fare implemented liao. make the best of it.

and really what if its true takings are lesser now? how? sign petition?

give us a concrete plan lo .

or u just wanna complain and complain?

That's the diff between you n me .... i buay song , i will tell people the truth .

It's the truth .

Day shift dun really deserved to be tag Fare Hike on their taxis . Really misleading .

2007 , I said 35% too much , u said huat at 2007 , i said sooner or later they will go down . 4 years , they goes down .

If 35% huat , they will not go down .

I like 20% increase , now 25% i just gotta accept it , but never 350-400m ..... should be 330m nett , long or short .

i really dislike those 350m and 400m rulings .

With 25% , i loon loon all average distance , short distance also nevermind , at least meter start $4 .

Day shift ?

Sorry to the day shift fellows, like Khoon and the rest .

Start meter , already lose $0.80 to us .

Poolman SG

Just gotta highlight to ShinMing or ST , to make more sense out of it , that do not use fare hike on taxis from now , it's hurting day shifts .

U guys dun have many day shift kakis , i have alot , some i really dunno , some i know .

I am a different cabby . . . still different .

Many look at me differently from they look at some of you .
