Had one last night. The written address was for Bakers Corner pub, but the gps point was about 200 yes further. They were waiting outside Bakers but the app wouldn't allow me to press arrived or POB, did a U turn to drop in Monkstown Farm. Luckily they paid in cash or I would have had to drive back to the gps pickup point to press "arrived" and POB and driven for a while to let it allow me to complete and get paid. Luckily again it allowed me to cancel the job that didn't suit their criteria.

Happy days pre mobile phones and apps all we had was a 2 way radio and we had no problems.

Yeah, doesn't make sense to me either. You'd think someone looking for a taxi could stand still for 5 mins?
Nearest thing I can think of is they book a taxi for #1 Main Street but it starts to rain so they take shelter under the bus stop outside #15 Main Street? So now you know they've moved to a new spot?

Yea, but only if the passenger has used the Live location option ??
Which obviousely no one does, all the pax ever press is "Order Taxi now" !!

I've seen it once or twice but just ignore it. I'd be suspicious anyways if someone booked a taxi and then moved a couple of hundred yards up the road.
