used grabtaxi kagabi, buti na lang no booking fee. medyo maraming nag-aabang ng cab, buti na lang may grab so hindi na ako naghintay sa pila. sama ng tingin sa aking nung isang girl nung sumakay ako sa cab at wala nga masyadong cab. wanted to go with uber sana kaya lang di reimbursable, cab lang kaya i went with grab.

I've used Easy taxi a couple of times and mabilis naman dumating ang cab except for one instance na I needed to work late. I booked easy taxi at 3am from Magallanesto QC. Waited 20 minutes for a taxi that didn't come then I received a call from their operator na nagkasystem glitch daw then she told me to book again. So I booked again pero after another 30 minutes wala pa din dumating.  Nag-grabtaxi na ako.

My friend and I used Grab taxi when we were in Malaysia last month. So convenient! It was always 2 minutes away, meron pa nga 0 minutes. LOL.

i've registered sa Uber using my e-credit-card (merong ganito ang BPI, mas mababa ang credit limit kaya ito yung ginagamit ko for online transactions, lower risk).

ngayon ito ang problema, after ko mag-register, eh di nag-prompt yung app na na-send na yung verification code sa phone ko and i should type it - STUPID ME, i accidentally closed the app when i checked out the message, when i opened Uber again, nawala na yung window where i was supposed to type the verification code. oh well. magkakaalaman na lang when i try to use it and mag-fail, hehe.

yung sa GrabTaxi, every time i try to use it, ang bagal, di ako maka-book. i haven't successfully used it pa. na-try ko lang siya pag nagpapa-book ako sa terminal nila sa malls. pero yung ako mismo, fail.

@travelchic

in case uber fails in the future, baka pwedeng uninstall, reinstall. not sure lang if gagana pag ganun.

tried booking earlier using grabcar, but super expensive pala! from moa to paranaque, it costs 435, kahit na may 200 off medyo mahal pa rin. ended up using uberx and my total bill was around 200 lang.

[travelchic]

^ay di ko naisip yung uninstall-reinstall, haha! galing, salamat. what i did was install Easy Taxi para may backup. so now i have three: GrabTaxi, Uber, and Easy Taxi. tignan natin ngayon kung kanino ako masa-satisfy, haha.

[purple_girl]

^haha... at least maraming options. haven't tried easytaxi pa. so far very happy ako kay uber, then grabtaxi yung backup. although now, madalas ko na ring gamit si grabtaxi pag pauwi ako galing office para may receipt. not sure kasi if our company will honor yung receipt ng uber for reimbursement.

kamusta yung estimated fair na indicated amount sa grabcar? iba ba sa real bill mo after the ride? sorry, hanggang ngayon di ko pa na try yung grabcar kasi sa ibang reviews sa net parang pricey siya compared sa uber.

[purple_girl]

^haven't really tried pa rin since i didn't push through with the booking at ang mahal nga. not sure if my understanding is correct, yung estimated yun na din talaga yung babayaran.

[summersunder]

tried uber twice. Ok naman medyo pricey lalo kapag peak hours.

[bagaholic_chewy]

Re Grabcar, yung estimated fare roughly yun na din yun. Minsan magdi-differ lang +/-10 pesos..

Last week ansaya lang kasi 3x ako nag-grabcar na halos free dahil sa promo nila na 200 off. Gastos ko na lang was about 100/ride, tip ko sa drivers. Aliw. Hehe..

[zxcvbn]

^Inggit ako because I tried to use GrabCar the other day, but walang kumuha sa akin.


I'm starting to become irritated with GrabTaxi. I used the HAPPYPISO promo twice last week. Pagkaupo ko pa lang sa taxi, I asked the driver for confirmation na no booking fee nga. Both times, the drivers said they weren't aware. So I asked them to check their phone, and sure enough, there was a message nga na no booking fee ako.

I don't know if they were just feigning ignorance or what. The first taxi, parinig ng parinig na hindi nya alam, pero sige na lang daw. The second taxi said ako na daw bahala, kasi kapag no booking fee promo, usually daw pasahero na daw bahala sa gagawin nila.

I'll still use them though, compared to flagging down a random taxi. I'm just kinda annoyed, but it's not a deal breaker.

[purple_girl]

was able to try grabcar kanina, and pricey talaga siya. yung bill was almost 200, buti na lang may 200 off using the grabcar code, so naging free yung trip.
