GrabTaxi, GrabCar, Easy Taxi, Uber, Tripda, etc. reviews?

I've been using Easy Taxi almost every time I leave the house since July. Around 12 rides na pala ko. I like it kasi P40 lang ang booking fee which is ok for me kesa maghanap ng cab sa labas (not the easiest). Nakaka-frustrate lang pag matagal may mag-respond na driver. Pag wala talaga, I end up going outside na lang din.

I used Grab Taxi once pa lang nung wala ko nakuha from Easy Taxi. I try to not use it kasi I find P70 too big. Parang na-doble yun fare ko.

Once ko pa lang di nagustuhan yun driver sa Easy Taxi kasi hindi maingat mag-drive, impatient. Most are courteous and don't complain about the traffic much (my pet peeve sa taxi driver).

^maybe i should try easy taxi next time, can you also check the location of the cab? sa grab kasi you'll know na andyan na yung cab.

[chubbycheeks]

^ yup! Tinatawagan ko na ang driver pag lumalayo na sa location ko haha. Minsan kasi parang nagde-detour pa.

[heavensent]

^you can also see the driver's cp number? akala ko kasi ndi pwede sa Easy Taxi yun

[summerchic]

^^Yes may cp number din ang picture ng driver.

[heavensent]

^same with grab din pala, next time easy taxi try ko

sis, what can you recommend for long-trips? makati-muntinlupa.
do i need to pay yung toll nila pabalik? (pede naman sila magservice road na lang pabalik )

[k_heart]

Ako naman, mas ok sa akin ang Easy Taxi than Grab Taxi. Mas ok for me yung service nila. and yes,
zero booking fee na naman. kaya instead of using my car,nag e-easy taxi ako kasi cheaper.
My friend naman likes UBER pero pag rush hour mabagal also magrespond.
Nag download din ako ng app kaso i don't like giving my credit card deets and i don't like to pay
thru credit card kaya dinelete ko na lang sa phone ko.

I've been spending too much money on GrabCar and Uber. It's very convenient kasi. And once you've tried it, masasanay ka na. I find myself using GrabTaxi less often than I used to. Based on experience, Uber is cheaper pag off peak and low demand for cars. Sometimes they are even cheaper than taking a regular cab. Medyo expensive siya pag rush hour and it there's high demand for cars. Mas mahal yung flag down, per KM and per minute rate niya. Nagulat nalang ako last friday my bill added up to P410 from Fort to QC. GrabCar is better pag rush hour/traffic because their rates are fixed. Alam mo na how much you're going to pay for getting from point A to point B. Si Uber may pang estimate lang but no guarantee how much you are going to pay for.

Question - do you usually tip drivers?

[j.adore]

If I'm happy with the service, I tip the driver. Pretty much like in other service personnel

[bagaholic_chewy]

How much do you usually tip the driver for GrabCar or Uber? Pag sa taxi kasi, I tip between 20-70, depends magkano meter (kasi usually, I round-up to the nearest fifty/hundred) and depende din kung ok yung driver..

[j.adore]

Same range Depends on the bills I have din so round up na lang and not get the change anymore.

FYI, nag reply na sa Facebook page nila ang Grab Taxi regarding sa incident which sis yanzkiie shared here. Mabuti na lang nagkaroon lang daw ng misunderstanding between the passenger and driver. At least, masasabi pa rin natin safe ang Grab Taxi. Safety kase ang number one concern ko sa pagsakay sa mga taxi.

Question, sa Grab Car ba kung ano yun lumabas na amount yun na lahat ng babayaran mo? Or you still have to add a Php70 booking fee?

For Uber naman, I tried to register kaso they are asking for my credit card. Parang hindi ako comfortable magbigay basta  ng credit card details ko and lalo na hinihingi pati CVV ng card. So they don't have a cash mode of payment? If none then how do you pay? They charge your card? Also, may mga car na nakalagay sa site nila, so Uber Cars sila and not Taxi? Tama ba?

i usually give 20, 50  at 100 depende sa traffic at sa driver   the booking fee sa kanila napupunta yan pumapasok sa mga atm nila monthly. Kwento sakin ng mga drivers ng easy at grab sila ang mga kusang naglagay o nag apply with easy and grab. Mas madali nga raw nila nakukuha boundary nila because of it.  Ano yung incident na nangyari with grab?

[chubbycheeks]

May promo ba yun grab taxi for sept?

[bagaholic_chewy]

Finally tried GrabCar last week. Ok naman experience ko, Patrol yung sumundo. Pagbubuksan ka pa pinto pagsakay at pagbaba. Malinis and mabango naman ang car. Malamig din aircon, pinahinaan ko na nga kasi gininaw ako.

Wanted to book again several times pero kasi limited units lang meron so i usually end up booking grabtaxi na lang ulit para di ako maghintay ng matagal. But if merong malapit-lapit na grabcar, yun na magiging default booking ko.

[j.adore]

I'm not able to chance upon an available unit in GrabCar. I guess it's my place.

Easy Taxi lagi wala unit so I go Grab na lang. 

[chubbycheeks]

These days parang ang hirap maka-book ng easy taxi. Napansin ko yun since nagkaron sila ng no booking fee promo. Dunno kung umiiwas ba yun mga drivers since wala naman booking fee. May nagkwento kasi na driver na sa kanila napupunta yun P40.

Nag-email sa akin ang uber na meron na silang lower cost option - uberX. Possible cars include Accent, City and WiGo. I'll definitely try this out. Mas tipid lang and it's safer than hailing a cab.

Hi. Share ko lang... Ok ang Easy Taxi for me. Aside sa may picture, number, nakapagsesend ng sms sa driver. Tinawagan pa ako ng support pati iyong driver pagkasakay ko sa taxi at tinanong kung nakasakay na ako. Pwede rin pala sila sa NAIA although sa may departure area ang pick-up. Mas mura compared sa airport taxi at iyong fixed rate.

Grab Taxi - Sabi noong isang driver ng Easy Taxi (unverified since di ko pa natry ang Grab Taxi), walang detailed info about sa driver, unlike sa Easy Taxi. Is this true mga sis?
