FN Technology fee gone up to €1.50

[Belker]

I got a FN cab as a customer today and the Technology fee has been increased to €1.50 without any warning.

[Bob Shillin]

Flag on the street, save oneself €4.50 per journey at least, spread the word to all yer passengers for the future. "Do you know that it's nearly a fiver to use the app rather than stopping a cab in the street" ?

[Belker]

It was a bit sneaky of the nua FN CEO Danny O Gorman to sneak that one in under the radar just before Chrimbo.

It's gonna be some whooping Taxi price fer a fare over all weekends between Midnight and 4am if booked through FN using the Priority option.

€5.40 starting rate, €3 Booking fee/PUC, €3.50 Technology Priority fee, 3 extra passengers €3, is €14.90 before the cab even moves and then it's €2.20 per KM.

Dick Turpin at least wore a mask !!

A 40 quid job and the tech/bribe fee was €2.40 for no discernible reason.

So they made their own rise up


On top of ours

... and it's the day/evening drivers that will suffer. Clients don't pay any attention to fare cards or such like, they just assume a taxi costs what they last paid regardless of the time of day/night they traveled.

We are travelling around with illegal fares cards now. Sheesh!

And unsealed meters.

I can't be arsed looking up the legislation,but are you legal to drive if your meter seal appointment isn't till 27th January?

[mercenary for hire]

As long as you have an appointment they'll leave you alone.

If you're worried about it, I think you can get earlier appointments/cancellations if you phone in plus you could probably check the website in a few weeks after it's calmed down a bit.  I'm the end of Jan as well and I'm happy content to wait.
