if you book a taxi to pick you up at 5:15, it means they are at your house at 5:15 give or take a few…. It does NOT mean they leave the depot, half an hour away, at 5:15
f-ing usless
anyone else had any bad taxi experiances, it might make my day a little better!
Melb0urne has the w0rst Taxi’s anywhere in Australia, I have never had 1 turn up 0n time
and if U have ever seen the Taxi rank in Melb0urne 0n a Friday Night U kn0w a wait 0f
2-3 h0urs is n0rmal…….
We use a lim0 service that 0ffers Standard vehicles 2 and fr0m the Airp0rt this really helps
as the fair is the same as a Taxi but there service is bar n0ne, als0 s0metimes a pick up in a
Bentley s0metimes happens :P
s0 Taxi’s in Melb0urne 0n a weekend isn’t really an 0pti0n….
Probably the closest thing to a bad experience would be one day where I had to attend work placement but had been more unwell than usual. So I had booked a taxi to pick me up from Westmead railway station at a certain time, roughly 7:30am I think (and a return trip in the afternoon) to save me the 15 min hobble. Waited at the station, no taxi. Waited a half hour past its due time, no taxi. Walked to work anyway (didn’t bother them, they weren’t paying me). End of shift, a taxi pulls up outside for me. Different company than the one I had contacted – the original never showed up, and the missus had called through to another place to ensure there would be a taxi for me.
Trip took about 20min and not much change from $20, since it had to drive right around the hospital (at peak hour). Think I’ll keep dragging myself along on foot.
