Prank calls
-
Any cabbies here received prank phone calls for a taxi here?
-
Meaning what ? Customers call and book a cab , and never turn up ?
For most cabs , every 10 bookings , 1 customer never turn up .
Depending on that's driver's luck that day or night .
Just on tuesday night from just 5pm til 11.45pm , i took 14 bookings that night , 3 customers never turn-up .
Not really consider prank call ... just that they call & book a cab , and wait at the taxi stand at the same time , which taxi come first , they hop-in , they never care ! Save $4.00 , why care for taxi drivers ? They don't care .
Some customer when they in need a cab , they do this .....
1.wait at a taxi stand , at the same time . call multiple taxi companies for taxi ,
2.Call CityCab
3.And Comfort
4.And TranScab
5.And SMRT
6.And Silver cab ......... which taxi comes first , good luck . The rest ? Lan Lan wait ther lor ..... then job-cancell !
Common la , this type of job nature . -
But let me reveal a secret ....... u better wait for the cab , even after confirming a taxi .
If u fail to wait , ur night will be a miserable one .
Why ? Cos taxi-drivers who know ur handphone number , they will scribble your handphone number on the back of the door of a public toilet .... thing like
" Girl Free for F*ck " - Call 9xxxx-xxxx .
Or $30 Chicken - Call 90xx-12xx !!!!!
SO guess what will happen ?
Perverts starts calling u , non stop !
Trust me , thing do happen like this .
And u can't trace who did it . -
