redxxx told me prices started on website , it's like doing what i said ....

no luck fuck ..... u dun need a professor to figure out how to solve that small problems .

eyes can see fuck ....

Guess? SG

The main priority for drivers from other taxi company to do on Tuesday is to check with them if they are following the same fare adjustment and structure of Comfort DelGro or not as on 12 Dec 2011. No matter is it a gain or loss for all TD, you are still advice to carefully press the surcharge when the changes starts, also beware to those cheapos who did not follows the news about the surcharge hike. Nevertheless I still wish all TD “發” all the way. Merry Christmas and a Prosperity New Year 2012, Dragon Year ahead.

if those day shifter wanna a shift to 2nd shift ..... think again , i dun see a need .

cos taxi day shift , with 25% surcharge extended timing , u will see the differences .

The force will come back .

Come back tell me what's the diff next week .

Come back and tell me , now say too soon .

U will tell me , i stick with day shift as for now .

U just need to promise yourself to discipline to work from 6am to 6pm .

Believe me , good enough , no need what peak hour .

Poolman SG

Yes all companies will follow this pricing .

It's a NTA National Taxi Association's initiatives .

knn Straits Time phui .... they long ago knew such changes and purposely published a complaint by someone waited 45 minutes for a cab at MBS .

And purposely published a cabby's plea .....

And finally those changes ...exactly like those from 2007 , very dramatic knn .

Poolman SG

Those cabby who thought from Monday huat .... and start to do planning . It's a bit risky .

and knn u are seriously wrong if u think night shift huat big time .

Drive as per normal ..... do what u do best , dun try anything adventurous during this period , u cannot afford any hiccups .

Can be a very expensive mistake .

Poolman SG

Every price change take place , always will be hit by a real low .

Human's natural reaction .

The flag down of extra 20 cts very good for me . On average i pick 6 to 10 pax. so extra $1.20 to $2 , extra $2 i can buy 1 char siew bao and 1 ice cream from toh tuck kiosk. so sweee i wont go hungry again!

huat ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

When CBD is flooded with taxis, where do you think the extra taxis go to?

I think this move changes the ball game altogether for most days.

Fridays will still be the same i guess for commuters. No taxis outside CBD until midnight.

CBD temp will flood with taxis . Give it 2 weeks or so , the crowds will be back. They always implement increase during festive season.

although any increase is welcomed ,on the other side being a commuter really damn jia lat. Wanna buy car COE $56k + car 100k , wanna take taxi so fucking expensive , wanna take MRT crowded like fark.

60.1 % just screwed themselves hard bringing along the 39.9 % as well :D
