Very rarely happens, but when it does it has an effect.

Our tables of fares for those of us on the senior side of the trade is a maximum table we are free to charge less and lets face it are our margins that tight that we have to insist every last penny is paid

I much prefer to put goodwill before pedantry

I know a driver who is a millionaire on paper who waited for a women to go in and get 20p
to make up a £4.50 fare. She always gives £5, never used him again.



Why did she need to get another 20p to make up the £4.50p fare if she always gave £5,I think maybe this is a made up story.


Not made up, she did not have enough on her ,she went into the house to get the rest of the fare . She is a regular off the rank .
He is known for his penny pinching ways . He owns 5 houses has 2 pensions worked around 70 hours a week before he retired with
ill health. He would still be working if he did not fail his medical.

Our system just puts the call through to a line that never gets answered. So the scum just think the firm is too busy.
