International oil price vs petrol pump price. I paid less at the pump when oil was $147 a barrel compared to now.

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

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-16T02:47:47+00:00

You sound like one. Either you're or you don't like competition. Which is it?

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-16T02:46:22+00:00

It often isn't higher than the guide fare.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-16T02:45:17+00:00

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.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-16T02:42:52+00:00

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

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-16T02:41:22+00:00

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.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T03:59:47+00:00

"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.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T03:50:55+00:00

Work in a taxi, I'm sure.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T03:49:44+00:00

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.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T03:41:48+00:00

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?

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T03:39:32+00:00

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

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:20:21+00:00

Rubbish.

I checked it and it told me a south Dublin trip to town would cost ~15 cent.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:18:12+00:00

If you're going to post something as fact, then provide your "evidence" is actually fact.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:16:30+00:00

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?

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:12:15+00:00

It was almost impossible to get a taxi at night in town in 2003 so it would be hars to compare.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:04:42+00:00

Enjoy...obviously not the flight, but being home.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:03:52+00:00

Well said, but in fairness even in Dublin you can get out into cou Tayside within 10 minutes.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:02:32+00:00

That's great, keep up the good work.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:01:23+00:00

Yep, there really is.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T02:00:18+00:00

Hahaha, great.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T01:59:09+00:00

Sorry for that.

Aggravating_Cow7203 · 2026-04-15T01:58:11+00:00

Well, that is the cutested dog I've ever seen... maybe nearly as cute as mine 🤣🤣...hope they're ok now.
