i was on call, go inside this very big condo basement..just before i reach the lobby, i saw far in front got a crown top green light stop a bit at cross junction in front me, but when he checking he see me he quickly turn into my lane before i reach the junction.

Ask pax what's the veh booking number shown in her system.
if no cab number, let her decide which to take as at times system can cock up too
could be the other TD is blur. His pax could also be a lady, but not your pax.
always good to check against pax name and mobile, else u take wrong pax, the other pax can bun knife u. Esp if it's at a place where many pax are desperate for taxi. They will tell u all kind of story.
This is call Yao
I practise calling ahead and give them eta. So far retention rate very good, 20 call maybe only 1 MIA.
Its when they don't answer then prepare kill call fast.
The stupido young girl kill call when you arrive syndrome on and off. 2 nights back 77 Robinson, called then arrived, then call kill and young office girl at front of queue flag you like mad, which is when you filter out and take another call. And wonder how some people so gong gong.
still the same one.i call the guy and say will be coming soon,yet a few minutes later call cancel!when the pax have this mentality of canceling once they got a passing cab,nothing can stop them except if coy willing to come out with a better booking sys!

i'm surprised many still doing it in the CBD during evening peak hours. they using this to lure cabs in, then cancel, hoping TD will just pick them up
I don't know, last time I take call, if tio cancel, just move on.....
Very rare I will call pax for confirmation unless is Limo jobs (guarantee payment).....
I only will press "arrive" and "call" on my MDT, good enough.....
Pax want to play punk, is non of my business.....
Depending on my "Yao" level, even if I know he is the one actually cancel my job, if my "Yao" level very high, just take and go......
Knn, pile of bill waiting to be settle, still want to bother about all this company matter?.....
I only know, if pax want to play punk, losing end still them.....
They are the 1 need taxi badly......
For us, is just another daily routine.....
I also don't hv the habit of calling pax,reach destination if bo lang then press "no show" n move off liao
during peak hrs there are many calls waiting for me lol
Only for adv booking I will call pax after 5mins of waiting
Sometimes I call..But usually the response can be quite rude..Like., "coming coming" then slam phone. Some even dun talk, just cut off the phone...But, when they board my cab finally, I usually dun bring this up to them. Just Drive.....
Worst is, a woman pick up phone....
Than a guy came on board....
sian 1/2....

My philosophy of driving taxi....
Any pax on board (sound familiar hor) is a plus to my daily intake....
There's no such thing that by picking up a pax, will ended up losing money.....
So indirectly, it answer your question....
Of course if I want to go against money, I can choose to ignore any pax on sight but what will I gain by doing that?.....
Shiok? justice?....

You cannot imagine the joy of doing that to a ang moh..
See angmoh waving frantically, make eyes contact with him, smile, put busy and buzz off!! Yes!!
by encouraging such tactics fr paxs,the more they will do it.in the end td lose out!so my philosophy is to put to busy or quickly take the next call!so that the idiot pax don't have the chance to flag down my taxi!
