Bingjames SG

any brother here can advise me when should I charge city surcharge?

when I "street pick" someone in the city?

when I got a current or advance booking from someone from the city?(do i charge $3.50+$3.00+25% Meter Fare)

when I send someone into the city?

I understand Sentosa also got surcharge? which instant I can apply this surcharge?

I think for the past 2 days I missed collecting all these.

tks bro for ur info...all this surcharges really confusing for soon-to-be driver....tks

Just_do_it_lah SG

The peak hours surcharges are computerized into you meter....

The meter will jump accordingly to the timing . (don't have to input anything).

Call surcharges will be added (automatically) for CDG cabs.

Just_do_it_lah SG

CBD surcharges need to key in manual...

Wantaxi SG

Only CBD surcharges need to key in manual...

bri i got a long way to learn......

Just_do_it_lah SG

As well as Location charges.... like in Singapore Expo Taxi stand....

It is all in the K2, K3 buttons.... go play around with it and get familarized.

Practise make for perfection.

Poolman SG

yes long way to go all brothers

Just_do_it_lah SG

The meter (has no GPRS), hence, not that advance to locate your taxi's locations...therefore....

CBD, Location surcharges, Airport Terminals, MBS casino + Hotel lobbies 1 & 3 (applies to NON-Comfort cabs on Sundays) have to add on yourself.

Just_do_it_lah SG

1) IVT Calls Surcharges

2) Peak hours

3) Midnite hours

are all automatically added-up.

Just_do_it_lah SG

Manual add-up

1) Airport Surcharges

2) Location Surcharges 2a) Singapore Expo 2b) MBS (on Sunday for non CDG). 2c) Resort World premises.

3) CBD Surcharges.

4) Red engines' Call surcharges... ( not auto ). Other companies dun know.. (except for CDG is auto)...

But if I got a call to pick up someone in city, can I charge both CALL ($3.30) and CITY ($3.00) both or "either or"?

benqepson SG

yeah just press the extra before you move .

Poolman SG

Once u forgotten to press surcharge once , u will remember for the rest of your life .

Poolman SG

that is why i said .... drive taxi cannot be lone ranger one , unless u started and already possess those standard like Uncle Poolman !

new drivers must make new friends , drink kopi , interactions ..... 20 minutes break and meet up friends and talk also good ..... sometimes topic will crop up : " Huh ? That side got CBD surcharge ? Aiyo i forgotten to press , liao chor ar ! "

Poolman SG

newbies to improve driving , they surely will , circumstances forced them to improve .

or poolman's version , get f*cked upside down , then usually u will learnt faster .

or to learnt quicker ...... friends in the same trade are the best people to improve , not only yourself , for everyone .

Means for private houses and condo like Coastal no surcharge?

condom ?

You meant condo huh ? in Sentosa Cove ?

Yes... no location surcharges.... but likely you will get a IVT call. No cab will go in w/o a call.

Bingjames SG

so on the Resort side on IVT calls would be:

$8.00 + $3.00 right?
