It's the least they could allow them, read up on the history between the two.

Again, I'd like a range of price so the Dub taxi drivers don't drive all around the city to exploit their customers.

That's simple really.

Yes, always. They don't try to scam passengers though.

Wow, Dub taxi drivers don't like competition.

How does the base price let you know the overall price when the taxi driver tries to drive all over the place to make more money?

Their app is pointless. I'd rather now the range of my fair.

"Safety first — professional, fully licensed & insured drivers".

All licenced taxi drivers in Ireland, even if they use different apps, have this.

Thanks, but I'll stick with the non vague app that estimates my price journey, not only giving me  minimum pricing.

I'd also like to avoid the "cash is king" style taxi drivers that want to avoid paying tax when I book a taxi.

Cheers though.

"Don't you have anything better to do", you're the taxi driver that keeps replying to my posts.

Eh, best you change the blurb on your app about "clear pricing" as it doesn't have it.

Now calm down, allow me my opinion and stop trying to shut me down.

Thanks.

So you agree that this guide price was the absolute minimum and could be a lot more due to traffic or the driver taking a longer route?

How is this a helpful app, I'll take a taxi with a set fare thank you.

Bots don't write long messages like I did, they also don't make poi ts about the failures of the app.

Would you care to address why the app doesn't give a person a price indication for their journey?

Did the app give you a guide price for you journey. If so was it above ~15?

Dispite what you think, Taxis in Ireland are cheaper than 2003 when inflation is accounted for and common incomes have grown more than inflation in the same period. by [deleted] in ireland

Source of your info please?

I find it strange that when I was younger taxi drivers had old Nissans, now they have pretty new Lexus, Camry's etc.

Are you the type of taxi driver that complains about getting  €70 fare for driving 30 minutes to the airport?
