I understand that, Hal... also, it'd be difficult to choose one charity over another on behalf of 10,000+ contributors and it'd be difficult to end such a scheme. For example you might say we're gonna raise €10M for ANO, when the target is reached ANO are gonna tell you what great work they've done with it and show you what a difference another €10M will make...
The President of the Irish Taxi Federation is defending approval for MyTaxi drivers to charge an extra €2 as a booking fee.In the past, MyTaxi had requested drivers to discount this NTA approved fee for their customers.Joe Heron told Newstalk Breakfast that most drivers have to travel to take a fare and that the €2 fee is to cover that.Earlier on the programme Tim Arnold, the General Manager of MyTaxi in Ireland, said the company has decided to lift the ban on booking fees in a bid to improve service.He pointed out that that there are now fewer taxi drivers than at any time in the last ten years. For every new driver, three leave the business, he said.“I am confident that this will offer an improved service.”Mr Heron said he anticipated most drivers will charge the €2 fee. “It is a very small fee for a good service.”“Most drivers have to travel for a job, that’s what this fee is for. When you tap the MyTaxi App the driver could be a couple of kilometres away from you.”

Joe Heron misses the point, again:http://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/taxi-federation-defends-new-2-mytaxi-booking-fee-1.3228907QuoteThe President of the Irish Taxi Federation is defending approval for MyTaxi drivers to charge an extra €2 as a booking fee.In the past, MyTaxi had requested drivers to discount this NTA approved fee for their customers.Joe Heron told Newstalk Breakfast that most drivers have to travel to take a fare and that the €2 fee is to cover that.Earlier on the programme Tim Arnold, the General Manager of MyTaxi in Ireland, said the company has decided to lift the ban on booking fees in a bid to improve service.He pointed out that that there are now fewer taxi drivers than at any time in the last ten years.
