Taxi Fare Double Bubble

[derek smalls]

Thought this had been stopped by Bolton council.

Star Cars w/hton were at it from 6pm Christmas eve. Cheeky fekkers. £5 for 1 mile

[gonzo]

To be fair any bar staff working get double pay.

 

So why shouldn't cabbies.

[jazza]

Would you go to work on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day for single time?

 

 

[jazza]

If I had a complaint about festive transport it is the lack of public transport on Boxing Day... No buses or trains at all.. That's fuckin stupid when all sport and sales are on.

Depends if they celebrate it or not.

[derek smalls]

Depends if I celebrated Christmas.

Someone told me that the council had barred them from doing it

[jazza]

So now we know the truth, go and find the someone who told you and punch them firmly in the mouth.

North West Taxis last Boxing Day charged double and I was quite happy to pay it because they were honest enough to tell me that as I was booking, good honest drivers and company in my eyes

i could, or i could just casually mention it.

 

it is what it is i suppose, vote with your feet and all that.

there`s a lot of the asian companies haven`t done it for years so i just presumed it was stopped. didnt realise they had done it voluntary

I reckon they should be able to charge more on Eid or whatever, Ramadan in summer when they've got 6 hours to eat and they are ferrying scutters around.

[dave2980]

The use of single fare over the Christmas and New Year period is a joint initiative to discourage drink driving

[Freddie_Hill]

You'd be an idiot to drink Drive.

 

 

It's a bloody soap powder.

[Cheese]

BIN BUSY? WHAT TIME Y'ON TILL?

Haha I can imagine the reaction to,"It's double fare bruv, cos I'm fasting innit."

[birch-chorley]

£9 back from town will do me just fine thank you very much
