Rumour has it some of them out there remove there break light bulbs 


That deffo happened a few years ago...think it was in Galway,Lizzzy might be aware of it....most brake lights on newer cars are LED's and not so easy to remove.

I was in Vicar Street in April to see the Drop Kick Murphys (yes they were excellent) when it was over i was expecting to see a line of taxis doing the Thorazine shuffle outside, but not a one to be seen. We had to walk down to Jurys where there was an old lad sitting in his taxi reading the paper, I tapped on the window and knocked him out of a daydream, Yes he said he'd be delighted to bring us to our hotel, We weren't gone long, when we passed a rank with about 150 taxis sitting waiting for Godot. What's that all about with a thousand people looking for a lift.

Yeah that was my first thought, it must be rubbing off on the darkies as well, they're usually creeping alongside you when your walking on the footpath, trying to entice you aboard.

Ye have to be vigilant when them fuks are in front of you....they have a habit of throwin the anchors out for no fukin reason....other than a claim!!

Rumour has it some of them out there remove there break light bulbs 

last summer outside one of the petrol stations two of them crashed in to each other (miner damage) one lad was laying on the road calling for an ambulance, the other was leaning against a wall holding his head, he too wanted an ambulance. I hope they were alright.

Maybe a couple of grand would help them get over their injuries.

It would certainly ease their suffering.

Important Update:

Customer Referral Feature

Hi Vandriver,

‌

Over the past few years, we have been able to attract over a million passengers on to the FREE NOW app in Ireland. We continue to add tens of thousands of additional passengers each month and it’s thanks to drivers like you that we have been able to grow FREE NOW into the number one taxi provider in Ireland.

‌

Part of our growth was due to the customer referral programme that was set up to reward drivers for introducing new customers to the app. To date, we have spent millions in driver bonuses and passenger discounts and have been delighted to be able to grow the passenger base for you to the highest level ever recorded.

‌

While the customer referral programme has performed well in the past it has recently come to our attention that there are much more effective ways for us to add even more passengers for you in 2019. As such we have decided to switch off the customer referral feature starting from today. Don't worry, all payments from last week will be included in your next weekly statement.

 


Our plans for passenger growth:

Continue to bring in new passengers every month through industry leading marketing.
Continue to offer bonuses to drivers to ensure our passengers get the highest service levels available.
Continue to bring in passengers from all over Europe (Jobs from the airport are up a staggering 55% this year).

Fcuk Tat , suppose we wont be advising out Cash Customers of THAT brilliant App now (not that I ever did)

[Belker]

Ya rode it 'TOO HARD' VD !

[mercenary for hire]

It had a huge flaw in that you could get the customer to put in your code on their first journey, even though they booked you on the app.I got 360 that way.Not bad for a part-timer.

[Jack Meoff]

Don’t think it mattered if the person used it a few times.
They got the bonus when they registered their card.

You'll be kept after the taxi purge, Van. You do sterling work for the cause. The Purge will begin at 7 pm and you'll be notified one day in advance of the sheep.

So I found out why they discontinued the driver referral codes today.They've been asking their cash customers to register a card before they can use the app.Two fares in the last couple of days have asked me to allow them to pay by cash even though there was a card on the job screen.

They can't book a taxi anymore without some sort of card attached.They discontinued referrals because it could be fiddled.

[Tony]

Probably to stop the scum from ordering taxis who's only purpose is to rob them.

[watty]

I wonder? 
E.g., there's a car hire place beside St Peters Church on the NCR.  The manager (?) uses his personal (non-Hertz) account to hail taxis for tourists dropping off hire cars.  The tourists obviously pay cash.
And you'd have your 'I picked you up last night, I've hailed a taxi, now get the fuk out' type of hails as well? A good guy might put it on account, most would probably book it as a cash job!

Same with hotels & pubs I'd imagine...

[Shallowhal]

It might discourage some passengers from cancelling,if they didn't have a card registered,some might not give a bollox about the two minute warning or being fuked off the app,looks like the customer now has to ask the driver to change the payment option.

[stonethecrows]

The option to change to cash might be next to go

[Shallowhal]

Well...it seems to have gone for the customer.

We have your customers, now fuck off!
