Sis chubbycheeks Uber has some cars daw na nasa Caloocan ang garage It's worth a try

[klengmorales]

Nag ggrab taxi lang ako pag sobrang hirap pumara ng taxi, especially pag umuulan kasi naman Plus 70 na agad. so hindi pako nakakaupo more than 100 na babayaran ko

ano ba mas maganda na mas mababa ang fee?

[chubbycheeks]

^ sis, easy taxi has no booking fee this month

[bagaholic_chewy]

Was supposed to try Uber today pero walang available na black car or kahit uberx sa area ko. So balik Grab ako. Walang grabcar unit na malapit so grabtaxi na lang. Oks pa din experience. 24/7 taxi unit ang nabook ko.

I tried downloading din the easy taxi application pero nag error. Yun din ang problem pag may updates sa mga applications minsan lalong lumalala. Kaya ako before updating applications binabasa ko muna yung mga review.
Hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako nagkakaroon ng lakas ng loob mag register sa Uber dahil sa credit card requirement na yan. So papaano pala yung wala talagang credit card eh di hindi nila pwede mag avail services ng uber?
Yun grab car & grab taxi naman nag try ako mag compare halos konti lang pala ang difference na lalabas sa fare kase yun grab car wala ng Php70 booking fee. Tama ba? Yun grab car nakasulat estimated fare? so paano mo malalaman kung magkano talaga ang babayaran mo pag grab car?

at last na try na namin ang uber. papuntang BGC, walang available na kahit ano.

pauwi, walang uberX pero may black na starex. we were happy with both the driver and the car. with surge, from BGC to QC, 337php (12.5km). 8:30 ng gabi yan. our normal taxi fare is more or less 230-300php.

okay pala tong services na ito...  haven't tried pa pero na download ko na app ng easy taxi.

GrabTaxi palang yung nati-try ko, and since nagustuhan ko service the first time always ng GrabTaxi ang go to ko, especially pag late nights or early morning trips. somehow i feel safer kasi that you know all the deets of the taxi and the driver and you can share pa your trip and location with your family/friends.

I don't mind the P70 booking fee as long as you know that you are safe (or at least, safe-r). And i like pa na  ok lang magpasundo't hatid sa NAIA, especially ang hirap kasi magkuha ng taxi sa airport, gahaman ang mga metered taxi at ang mahal mahal ng airport taxi or mga fixed rate taxi.

crossing my fingers na hindi pumangit ang service nila.

Hello mga sis! Question lang -- which ones take you from NAIA to wherever in the metro? Haven't used these services before in the Philippines as my family usually picks me up from the airport. I'm familiar with Uber as that's what I've tried here, but not GrabTaxi or GrabCar. Which is the best in terms of security? 11 PM kase flight arrival eh.

[ava_camille]

^I'm not sure if they are allowing the regular taxi's in the arrival area, alam ko lang the yellow taxi's/airport taxi lang allowed .

[bagaholic_chewy]

^^ pwede ka mag GrabCar or perhaps Uber din. Di ko pa personally na-try, but sabi ng driver ng GrabCar na pwede sila dun.

[purple_girl]

^^uber or grabcar i guess? haven't tried grabcar but mukhang okay naman based on reviews. yung uber naman, medyo suki ako nigo lately. been using uberx since cheaper siya than uber black and very happy ako. rate is similar (or in some cases cheaper) to a regular taxi. just to give you an idea, my fare from paranaque to mckinley hill just totaled to around 250 and that already includes toll. my fare usually costs around 200 - 240, excluding toll, when riding a regular taxi.

used uberblack yesterday (wednesday) 8:30 pm. again, walang uberX na available.
from moa to Qc. 389php (16.07 km)

[purple_bear_hugs]

I've tried Grab taxi several times already, and so far ok naman mga pinadalang taxi unit sa akin... malinis at di naman luma mga units...i like the fact that may tracking, and detailed info like name of driver, cab # etc...added plus din when the driver calls to inform regarding his whereabouts, kung malapit na siya or  just to update you...sometimes booking fee is free of charge pag may promo,and more often than not,the drivers themselves are the ones who inform about it...
Will try Uber and Easy taxi in the future, just to compare...

yung mga naka try na ng grabcar, how much inabot ng bill at ilang km yun? does the time matter, kung rush hour or offpeak?

ty in advance.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ I think mas sulit ang grabcar pag mas malayo. Based on my recent bookings:

Newport Mall to Greenhills area - on a rainy Monday night - nasa 330 lang. But I gave 420 kasi mabait si Manong Driver. Patrol ang sasakyan.

Emerald Ave in Ortigas to Robinsons Magnolia - on a normal weekday afternoon - nasa 240 yata yun. I think I gave 300. Fortuner namn ang sasakyan.

^ thanks! medyo fair naman pala based on your experience. nagbasa kasi ako ng mga reviews, parang mas mataas kesa sa uber. may nakita akong review na magbabago pa yung estimated price depende kung may malapit na car kaya medyo nagaalangan ako, but i will give this one a try soon.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ magpapakita naman sila ng estimated fare upon booking mo. And once me magconfirm, they'll confirm the amount to be paid din. Usually, +/-10 lang dun sa orig estimate so di naman masyado magma-matter, IMO.

Haven't tried Uber yet, though. Lagi kasi walang available na black car o di kaya e uberx pag nagta-try ako mag-book..

[cutemama]

we've Tried Grabtaxi before. Coding kami that time and need namin pacheck up si baby. Eh sobrang hirap magabang ng taxi sa place namin kasi madalang daanan ng sasakyan.
So trinay namin tong app na to, ang bilis makahanap ng taxi, tas biglang may nag appear na your taxi will arrive in 4 minutes. Hahaha grabe taranta mode kami, kasi hindi pa kami nakakapag ayos ni makapagsuklay. Hindi namin akalain na ganun pala kabilis.
 Then tatawag sayo yung driver to ask your exact location or house #. Tsaka nag aappear pa name ng driver kaya feeling secure ka.
Maganda din yung taxi,bago pa and mabait si manong driver. Yung nga lang may 70php booking fee. Pero keri na rin atleast less hassle.

Late reply, but thanks sis ava_camille, bagaholic_chewy, and purple_girl! Convinced the fiance to check out Uber, and around Php 480-508? daw from NAIA 3 to QC. Will try to coax him to check out GrabCar din. Basta secure, okay na yan kahit magkano!
