NRC Xpert Merger

Problem being, he still gets 10% of what's being overchargd to the punter.

He's nuts. Drivers working for mytaxi pay 12% plus €2 for hotel/pub/car hire return shed jobs. We even pay commission on our tips.

Doubt if there will be a radio company around in 5 years.They are rapidly becoming obsolete.PPJ is the future.A mate of mine is with NRC and he tells me 50% of the jobs have some form of discount.Personally i hope Vinny looses his bollox with Expert.Poacher turned gamekeeper.He was the early incarnation of Whistle asking drivers to pony up 500 each to set up HIS company.

We may not like paying 12% to Mytaxi but for semi retired people like myself and rats they are ideal.If Flag does take off I am sure Mytaxi will quickly follow their lead regarding commission.

I am very happy to use Mytaxi at the moment for my 30 hours a week.

Big companies like Aer Lingus and the HSE will never use apps where there is zero accountability to the customer; for the record the only discounts NRC have are Aer Lingus (10%) HSE (20%) Holles St (15%) and Beaumount (Set Fares) All the corporate companies now pay full fare.

Swings and roundabouts... Hail0 told us it's top drivers were paying €240/week commission a few years back. Given that drivers working for mytaxi had to give discounts of up to 36% at that time and given that there was no hospitality charge, it's safe to assume they're paying well over 3 ton these days.

I seriously doubt anyone is paying €240-€300 a week for a forty hour stretch. If you're Immigrant mates are doubling or tripling their hours, or better still, have three drivers on the one car, I say fair play to them.

Tips ? Just tell your punters upfront you get charged for tips, and that cash would be fine.
