Reminder/Notification of FREE NOW Driver Responsibilities

Hi Stephen,
Recent Garda statistics have shown that online / card fraud has increased by 50% during Covid-19. In the interest of reducing fraud, we would like to remind/notify you of your responsibilities when you use the FREE NOW Driver App.
Driver Responsibilities:
Only put through metered fare - i.e. do not process fares for a higher value than what is shown on your Taxi meter. Do not process Cashback in any circumstances.
Do not process fares upfront - fares must only be processed at the end of the journey.
Pickup Rule - Only pickup within 200 metres of the Pickup Location - do not travel from the Pickup Point to another destination to collect the passenger, if contacted by the passenger.
Note: In the event there is proof that a trip does not comply with any of these responsibilities, FREE NOW is allowed to withhold, recover or deny the payment. FREE NOW may pay only a reasonable estimate of the fare (if at all). FREE NOW may also sanction drivers with suspensions, potentially leading to termination.
Thanks,
The FREE NOW Driver Team
