When i was with Comfort ...
Got once ....
I received a call : " Park Mall , main road . Mr.XXXX "
So i proceed ....
Before reaching , saw that guy with phone , *ting* job cancelled .
Immediately when TAXI turned green , this cheapo flag for me .
So i stop , tell him : " Pls wait at taxi stand ."
I said : " i got call "
He said : "But u TAXI , uncle ."
I added : " Yes just got cancell , u still have to Q there ."
*ting* , here you go .
Fuck them la , i ruthless one , never give a damn to cheapos .
Too clever , makes them really stupid .
strange but true... i have not kena things like this before. my jobs are all cancelled coz either tio hijack by cheapo TD or took a longer time to reach pick up location.
my last cancelled job was at hitachi tower 8 pm plus. Turn into telegraph street nia cancelled, reason , last friday nite - cheapo TDs plenty. phui
Good to see TDs sharing here. I have learnt quite a fair bit from this forum.
To all those pax out there who abuse the system or may abuse or ever abused the booking system... Every dog has its day!
If reached destination job cancelled or no show, i will press the Busy buttom and drove off to about 100 meter than press for hirer.

Another thought is they probably know they are the most disliked lot so they think what the heck , might as well be nasty lor. hahaha
in fact the nicest ah nehs are those bangla workers. although they dont tip , at least they dont give trouble. sometimes when i take em , i will deduct the cents and round down or give a $1 off. you can see that they are very grateful & will say thank u very much uncle.
TCL,
Ah neh and bangala are 2 different people, they have different culture and characters.
In my course of work, ah neh also behaves badly.
Their 5 cents is bigger than a bull lock cart!

This is the type of info that we want . About how some bastards chut pattern to fark us up , so that we are aware next time.

To each his own.
Agreed with you.
Today's taxi business is so competitive. People like us trying very hard to earn a decent living by risking our health, (sometimes our lives) to earn just that few dollars ($2.50 to $3.50) by taking calls and to reach the destination asap. Yet these pax play us out. How do one feel?
Whatever it is, its a chicken and egg prob in Singapore taxi business. It will be there forever. We can't solve this. TDs accuse pax. Pax blame TDs... etc etc.. Since we can't solve this, might well join the prob. Be a bastard, calculative, choosy, nasty taxi driver lor!
That is why i said , standardised the practise .
Once got a job cancell at that location , guys pls la , give that location a miss .
Let them wait , and call again .
See if they dare do the dirty tricks on us again .
me last week while queuing at classified area got 1 very swee comfort call , pick up : one fullerton taxi stand , destination : pan pacific hotel , taxi required : 4 , i immediately press 3mins and chiong there , reach there within 1-2 mins , when i reach outside the taxi stand , *ting cancelled , wtf , impossible that they able to find 4 taxis in 1-2 mins cos i see the queue at the taxi stand got at least 20+ people, i just drive out and immediately got another booking from LV going to conrad hotel only ... haha ...
Let's boycott Fullerton Hotel la , this hotel sucks .
Why ?
Too many yao gui drivers always chiong there to pick n go .
mine is not fullerton hotel , is one fullerton taxi stand , not many taxi will notice this taxi stand cos hidden inside de... thats y tio cancelled make me even more hot...
Originally posted by lazyeebone:They just want to trick TDs there to pickup. They know the timing that oncall taxis
are about to reach.Call Cancelled I will drive off.
How many waiting in the queue is none of my business.
I don’t play this game with them.
Ya lor .... they think they on call us , then cancell , then we must well pick them ?
Crazy or wat ?
But guys , sometimes it's like that scenario .... Just an example .
3 friends ..... need 3 taxis .
So they call comfort , listen to music .
So 2nd one call Transcab , 3rd one call Lake View .
1st still music , 2nd no answer , 3rd one on Lake View , all 3 taxis arrived in 5 minutes .
By the time , 1st also got a confirmation , but then , Comfort can press 9 to cancell , u call Lake View , maybe scared kena F*ck for cancelling , taxis all on the way , 1 also no need ? so they cancell Comfort .
Convenient ma comfort .
Really fuck up pax ..... think we stupid knnpcb .

lol~~~~~~~~~
my top boycott place is 1 of the hotel along beach road since few months back after i had some arguement with that stupid bellboy... i will not take their booking no matter how swee the destination is n how near am i to the hotel ... send paxs in got no choice , but i will not take any paxs out from there ...
Yes, arrogant hotel. Despite their bellman's fault, they still have the cheek to reprimand you. I'm referring to the management. Must ban!
Taxi company shd charge at least $1 or 50cents for every call they make to their phone bill.....
