[Trending Now] A Netizen Wins Over Dishonest Taxi Driver Who Charged Them P3,600 For NAIA-Cubao Trip

Availing the comfort of riding a cab in the hot Manila weather is always a good idea, especially when you travel from and to the airport a lot. But there are also many taxi drivers who see this as an opportunity to make money from defenseless commuters. But not for this lady!

Janine Jennilyn took to Facebook her anger after experiencing such incident.

A taxi driver recently attempted to overcharge them with their fare for their trip from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 to a bus terminal in Cubao, Quezon City.

She told netizens how they boarded a cab at NAIA, after which a caller mounted their luggage in the car’s trunk. 

They were surprised when this man also boarded the cab in the passenger’s seat, but they just didn’t mind it because the cab had already sped off. 

What shocked them was when the driver suddenly stopped in the middle of the journey to negotiate a fare that would amount to P3,600, shocking both Jennilyn and her brother. 

Fearing for their safety, Jennilyn and her brother just pretended to agree and told the driver to go on and look for an automated teller machine so they can get some cash. 

What the drivers didn’t know was that their plan was to run to the nearest police car and complain, which they did.

The cab sped off even when though all the back doors and the trunk were still open. 

This story has angered many netizens and has accumulated over 45K shares on Facebook. What also surprised her was the alarming number of emails she got telling her about their experience with the same driver but on a different cab.
