Within my LA I must use the the meter and i cannot DEMAND more than the shown fare

If the customer hands me more than the fare shown i am legal to accept (I suppose) as I didnt request the extra


Im on a booking system where a price is generated automatically and i may accept a booking request

The passenger pre-pays with no involvement from me...

have been naughty?

ive not been nicked....lol

sems the passengers do a fare compare and book it and pay the site

the site invites "claims" on a price

taxi makes that claim

site pays taxi


ive a 2 mile booking sunday, would meter £5. Passenger has already paid the site £15, im getting £12 off the site
