Happened me with a couple a couple of months ago, they hadnt a penny on them, she hadnt even 10 euro on her Revolut card, pair of cunts, he started telling me about all the diggers and machinery he owned etc, then they started giving me shit, if you want business around here you better be nice to us etc. he rang me the next day talking about leaving the money owed into a shop in town, had an attitude on him, no sorry or anything, then he says you didnt find a phone in the taxi? needless to say no money was ever left into any shop for me.

No, fer under 20 quid just forget about it.
Fer jobs over Thirty (looking dodgy) by night,
insist on cash on the dash, (Especially Knackers).

Yeah, you are right. Not worth it. It's just part of the job I suppose.
If they ever try to get me again some night from a rank or on the street, I will ask for the money owed then in the unlikely chance they hand it over, I will drive off without them

Fool me once.....blah blah blah!!

Very true.
I used to carry this couple, very wealthy from Dublin. 9 euro fare, never would give you any more than 9.
Then one day I was ONE MINUTE late collecting them as the traffic was very bad. I meet them coming the other way in another taxi. I rang them a couple of times but they let it got to voicemail. Saw them at the train station many times over the next year or 2, they always skipped me even if I was the first taxi, saw them in many other taxis over that year but they never rang me again.
Then one busy bank holiday I was collecting a good customer at the train station, the tight couple were there beside her, my customer says I have more customers for you if they arent barred, I said yes they are barred. The couple tried to get in my taxi, you arent getting in I said, yer man laughs, I said im not joking you arent coming with us. Dont be so petty he said, I let him have it then, said why did you go with another taxi? oh we didnt know if you were coming bla bla bla.
I drove off and left them there, my customer thought it was hilarious and said I was right to leave them there.
Drove by the train station a half hour later and they were still there lol

And you wonder why there are illegal taxis in your town .Have the taxi regulator been in touch with you for refusing to take a legitimate fare ?Reading some of your posts you refuse people that pay but pick up people who dont .Strange way to try run a business .If the metered fare is 9 euro why would they give you more ?

It was my opinion they were drunk and would cause me trouble. ;)
also why would I mix passengers who dont know each other? valid reason not to carry that couple.

I read this "I have more customers for you if they arent barred, I said yes they are barred." You never mentioned Drunk .!

Why would you have regulars that only have a 9 Euro fare ??

I don't really get your question, are you saying why such a low charge? as in they wouldnt be worth carrying?

Yes, I don't do regulars (especially 9 Euro ones) nor pre-books, my reasoning being that you can't accept a job fer 30 minutes before a pre-book.

No, not my style. I actually drove by them at another spot a few hours later and they tried to flag me down, I dont think they knew it was me. :)

They knew alright... they always know.
