  Good for you guys .

  Well done .

   

   

  Me too.  It's like they are using the company's tool to "summon" TDs to the T/S and then avoiding paying the call charge.  They think they smart? I'll just move on to the next T/S or street pax (if applicable.  It's a given fact that during peak hour there is a shortage of cab.  So, no point playing such game and trying to short change the TD.

  Not 100% true .

  But CDG do give priorities to their Corporate Customers .

  Those Cab Charge holders ...... That is why cash payment customers will find it hard to get a cab when they needed one , cos CDG pay a bit attention to their own corporate customer base .
